I know anytime a team reaches the quarter finals they obviously have to be good but is this the most stacked quarter finals 8A has ever seen? All games could be epic.

BR vs Warren

HF vs Marist

Beast vs Edwardsville

Maine South vs LA.

I think this game could really be a game of extremes between the LWE defense and Eville offense. It's crazy but I can see Eville offensive possessions going something like...1st down sack, 2nd down sack, 3rd down Touchdown. lol Should be interesting.

Is this the same Edwardsville team that lost by 2 TDs to Waubonsie Valley earlier this year? The same team that won only 3 of its 8 games so far against teams that finished with winning records? Sorry my friend but 2018 LWE at their home is nothing like anything Eville has seen this year.

I count them out.

I think we need set a match up between ESL and LWE... if they are as good as ALL of you say they are, we will embrace the challenge.

Actually, no it's not the same team that lost to Waubonsie Valley and the other two losses were against ESL (future 2018 7a champs?) and against nationally ranked CBC who is essentially the LWE of Missouri. No one is saying that Eville is going to win, but the game might be more competitive than what you think.

More competitive than I think could still be a blowout.

EVille will score. And I think the game will be very competitive. Sounds like LWE has had a few good seasons. Surely not a staple in the state of Illinois as far as Highschool football is concerned? I’m asking. I only know about MC, Loyola, MS....Having a successful program year after year...oh and of course ESL!

Last trip to Edwardsville for LWE involved losing in the last minute after fighting uphill the entire game to finally take the lead,and having the rug pulled out at the end. The kicker was coming home the next day chasing a tornado down I-55.

The Eville homers are finally giving the LWE posters what they have been waiting for.

I’ll sit back and enjoy.

LWE 28-0 at half ... final 45-7.

Never close.

(LWE has been a top tier program since the all junior class become seniors in 03)

A few good seasons?!?! Seriously. Try 18 of them! Not bad considering they have been open for 18 years. Never a losing season. Never missed the playoffs. 3 trips to ship and typically a deep run in the playoffs most years. Great program. Great kids. Great fans That’s LWE

Wait till the responses from your LWE posse. Going to be worse than high school kids.

Corey90 crashes most threads with LWE greatness.

can’t imagine his response now when someone says their team will give LWE a game.

Easy fix - couple of options

1. Schedule a non con game? Would be fantastic to see LWE/ESL next year or in 2020

2. Petition up to 8A? There would be good odds of the teams running into each other somewhere in the playoffs in most years.

You should look a little closer Q. I don’t get involved in those convos. I’m just here to have fun. I’m gonna miss you guys. But until then, I’m enjoying the moment. One game at a time.

I will give both teams this. Both the griffins and flyers never shy away from scheduling tough non conf teams. So just maybe

I apologize and appreciate your stance. I try and do the same.

If E. St. Louis gets Jaylon McKenzie next year they may not lose for a few years.

Eville is 1-1 against LWE in the playoffs. Also LWE came down to Ofallon and lost in the playoffs as well. Is southern guys know about LWE and we will never be afraid of ANY team from up North. Also LWE was played other southwestern conference teams in the regular season but for some reason have never played ESL. I am not sure why it hasn’t happen but I am sure ESL has asked a couple of times.

They don’t want the smoke with ESL. LWE has been a great story but we’re talking about the most successful program in the state of Illinois.
