The schools have split their last six meetings. Hersey won last year 38-34 and expect a game and scoring around that.

Nawrot is a terrific traditional drop back QB for Hersey. Cacini of Prospect is a more of dual threat and is one of the best QB's no one talks much about. Hersey's Travis has run the ball for 798 yards and 13 touchdowns in seven games while Prospect's Donnelly has 1,001 yards and 17 touchdowns in 8 games.

Prospect has played a better schedule with wins over Stevenson, a drubbing over St. Laurence, along with wins over Naperville Central and Fremd.
Hersey beat Carmel, which was without Trae Taylor, who had transferred. They also beat Hoffman Estates and Neuqua Valley and were the last team to beat Barrington.

If you are going to game, I suggest you get their early.

I'll take Hersey big. I said in a different thread Hersey by 28.

I think Prospect will score points but I don't see them stopping Nawrot. I could see Nawrot having a monster game. This is a generational qb for Hersey and while Prospect's qb is very good, I don't think they have the firepower to hang for more than a half.

Hersey 48 Prospect 20.

Both are undefeated, conference title is up for grab, rivalry, and pride. It will be a very good game. I think the spread will be a lot closer than many think. 32 to 22 Hersey wins.

Call me a homer all you want but I’ve seen both and Hersey seems far superior. Hersey beat Barrington pretty good and Barrington beat Fremd. Fremd hung around with Prospect. I think Hersey by at least 2 scores. Wouldn’t be surprised if it ended 28 like mentioned above

I thought people were referring to the St. Viator at De La Salle game. I hope and pray that maybe this is a game our Meteors win. At home for senior night, can we please end this 22-game losing streak?

Meteors Win! Please let this happen!

I wouldn't use that transitive comparison. Fremd is on quite the schneid currently

I also think Fremd's 3-4 turnovers were the difference. I think one if not two of the picks were in prospect's endzone. Not taking away anything from prospect, they made the plays but those made a huge impact on the game. Fremd was right there and Prospect was not dominant by any means. I'll still take hersey by 28, but this is a huge rivalry game though and I'm hoping I'm wrong and we see a good game.
