    Which Class of IHSA Playoff Football do you think will be most interesting?

    Agreed! Also, looking back on ICs season, besides the Loyola game, which game did IC struggle the most with? I would say that the Iggy game was their toughest battle. My opinion on the why they only won by a touchdown.... Iggy runs the triple option. This is not something that IC sees very...

    If the playoffs began on 10/9

    It is geographically set as it pertains to a North/South, but there are 24 teams, ranked 1-24 on each side. Both Byron and IC will be in the North. Therefore, if they are the 2 and 3 seed, they will play each other in the quarters. Here is a picture of the bracket last year.

    If the playoffs began on 10/9

    You are correct with the seeds. However, that would mean that Byron and IC would play in the quarters, not the semi's. # 2 and # 3 are on the same side of the bracket and the winner would likely play RB in the semi's.

    The Official Unbiased Top Ten week 8

    It was the same thing last year and Byron beat IC pretty easily. I think this year IC is better but until they can beat them, it's hard to pick against Byron. They still have a couple D1 guys on the roster and are very well coached. They will likely play each other in the quarters or semi's...

    The Official Unbiased Top Ten week 8

    I also agree that IC has some incredible talent per capita. Pretty remarkable. However, their varsity football roster is not 31. That is what you will find at the majority of 3A schools (30-35). IC has 45 players listed on the roster on MaxPreps, and over 50 players on Hudl. Count the guys on...

    What Game are you Most Interested in this Upcoming Weekend?

    BMAC (5-1) vs Wheaton (6-0) - BMAC didn't look great last week and Wheaton has a pretty good defense. Wheaton 28-7 Byron (6-0) vs DuPec (6-0) - Is DuPec for real? Byron beat them handily BOTH times they played last year. This game also obviously has seeding implications in the 3A North...

    Just Imagine.. ESL still in 5....

    While I also feel ESTL would absolutely dominate 5A, are you aware that Cary Grove is a 5A team now? ESTL has 2 championships over the last 5 years in 6A and Cary has beat them twice. Personally I don't think that 5A and 6A are wildly different so it seems a little extreme to think they would...

    Playoff un-expansion

    ALL 3-6 teams will get in. If you listen to or read Steve Soucie's predications, we are going to need a bunch of 2 win teams in the field as well. I hope we get rid of this system after the year is over.

    Small School Classes

    Don't forget about Byron in 3A. Defending champions and they are really good again. I think both Byron and RB would have a good chance to upset IC who will be favored over both. Once the bracket comes out, we'll see who gets the favorable side of it. Byron and RB will more than likely be the 1...

    Immaculate Conception 28, St. Laurence 12, Final

    Rivalry or no rivalry... IC wins by a lot right?

    KRC Game of the Year- Johnsburg @ Richmond-Burton

    These two programs do NOT like each other and Johnsburg will be highly motivated to ruin the RB homecoming. I was at the game last year and it looked like their were words between the two coaching staffs in the handshake line. I think it probably goes similar to the RB vs MCC game earlier in the...

    DePaul 0, Immaculate Conception 33, IC starters pulled, and I'm signing-off.

    This is a different IC team than it was two years ago. How many DI kids does IC have, 3 or 4? You think those kids don’t want to challenge a storied 8A program? Try to shock the world! I would hope they give Loyola their best shot. Complete cowardice if they don’t.

    Dangerous Losing Record Playoff Teams

    I listed 299 when 266 is the correct number. However, IHSA currently has them multiplied. My understanding is that ALL open enrollment schools are subject to the 1.65 multiplier unless they request a waiver. I don't believe Marian has a waiver. That is why the playoff projections have them in 3A...

    Dangerous Losing Record Playoff Teams

    They are likely to end up in 3A when multiplied. IHSA has them listed with 299 students, when multiplied they will have 438.9.
