They're also destroying ****** teams, they also shut down what will be a bigger recruit than Rowell. Obviously I don't believe that Tuscola beats any of them but if you can overlook all the aforementioned things regarding IC why can't you with Tuscola?
You're grasping straws if you think tuscola is at the level of ic. Cmon man. IC beat St Laurence and bishop mac. Yes the rest of their schedule sucks, completely agree, but those wins are big. The DSR actually gave them quite a few votes... lol that I'm using the dsr as a legitimate ranking. They are well versed though.

I don't know how this thread went here. All I said was IC would running clock the bulk of the 5A field. Yes, the ESCC (along with the CCL-B and DVC) are pretty bad this year. Only 2 of the ESCC teams are 5A, so this thread went sideways, fast.

You're grasping at straws not me, all I'm saying is if you're making silly claims why not take it a little deeper? Bishop Mac is the measuring stick? The win over bishop mac says they can beat 7a/8a ESCC teams? Come on. In a vacuum maybe IC beats those teams but they probably lose 8/10 if not more to each. Also if they had to play that schedule week in and week out they probably wouldn't beat anyone weeks 9-?

Lots of nervous energy over here watching the game. I'd rather snap at a stranger on here, making an *** of myself in the process, than snap at my wife and sleep on the couch tonight.

I feel the exact same way.

Relax Cletus, everyone is predicting your prescious Roadrunners to win. Do you think ICCP would beat Nazareth?
Honestly...No. ICCP is good but the number of athletes is not even close. Now...can those said athletes mesh and mature..who knows? If you get the disheveled Naz week 4 team it would be a good game; the team that played week 8 may possibly clock them. Regardless ICCP cruises to 3A this year and are possibly one of the best coached teams around.

Rowell is a stud. But IC is just not at the overall talent level as some ESCC schools. Again, I think they should win 3a but they play a very weak schedule and the overall talent does not compare to ESCC. Not trying to down IC but just not a comparison.

Glad you see my point. Don't forget before the football team won a title the first title came out of that program
I know that. But 80-100 kids in the program versus the amount in wrestling is different. Also the program is only about 7 years old.

Maybe some of those 80-100 should at least try it out as it could improve their games a lil esp those young bucks on the Line. I know Smith and Stec and Keefer are benefitting

Might as well keep the weekly thread going. OK showing week 1 for the conference. Good wins by Viator and Benet. CoM played tough. Dons were outmatched. Marist--kind of surprised they went down after looking really strong through the season. But, as many have pointed out, New Trier is legit.

MCC-28 Hillcrest-14
Naz-31 Vernon Hills-16

Lake Forest-24 Viator-14
Benet-27 Normal-20

(Take my picks with a grain of sale--I know next to nothing about most of these opponents. I mostly start these weekly threads for input from much more knowledgeable fans on the weekly matchups).

Naz and MCC will win easy again
Naz 38 VH 7
MCC 31 Hillcrest 10
Benet wins another close game. Normal always a tough opponent.
Benet 38 Normal 28
Lions have been counted out all year. Well, I'm sticking with them this week against a bigger team. Hard to win on the road but beat Boylan on grass last week. Skill players are best players in the field this week.

Okay- game day! Good luck to all the teams playing. Stay healthy and have fun! Naz has a tough one in front of them tomorrow. Let's see if they can keep the momentum going!

Looks like MCC did not have to keep their sprinklers on this past week huh. I knew there would be silence on this thread after one of the 5A "favorites" scored 2 points in their supposed "cake-walk" 2nd round game.

I tried to warn everyone that the NAZ team was very young. Very young! No one understands the difference in 14/15 year olds versus 17/18 year olds. Could Naz have beaten a very mediocre VH, absolutely but not turning the ball over 6 times. Now hopefully these your kids will learn from this and come back with a vengeance next year and the year after. As far as being quiet, there is nothing to say when you lose a game you should have won. You just learn from it and try and get better. Because I am an ESCC guy, go MCC!

DT,

This couldn't be a truer statement. This team could be dangerous next year. Day one of the 2017 season started Monday.

Everyone knows Naz is "young", but the other 5A team we are talking about here is pretty damn young too (8-9 starters - Offense/7 starters - Defense). MCC will be dangerous for years to come as well.

Sounds like when MCC and Naz are back on each Others schedule, this will be the game of the year!
