What a great class 6a

 

[JFelice]

PR has to be the overwhelming favorite, but it's an incredibly intriguing class (at least at this point).

 

[godfthr53]

No montini as a choice?

 

[Wassup13]

I predicted PR to win last year and they will win it again this year.

PR would win 8a this year if they were in 8a.

[mchsalumni]

This is a no brainer if I've ever seen one. PR allllllll day.

 

[Cross Bones]

How many OL does PR return?

 

[Wassup13]

Is OL # 77 back for PR? That kid can really play!

Jeff Jenkins, and yes he is a senior now and also committed to Iowa.

Hoping UI's Coran Taylor & Peoria can repeat.

I personally don't like their chances at all in 6a and I HATE the potential PR matchup for Peoria.

Peoria did lose some key lineman (Kendrick Green, etc), correct?

All.... Predicting post-season brackets is difficult enough even going into week nine. Having said that Peoria likely will be in the "southern" bracket of 16. Possible other teams in that bracket Lemont, Richards, Crete Monee, St. Laurence and SHG. Naz traditionally has stayed north but who knows. Whoever gets to the final certainly will have earned it.

I'm not sure Naz ever went south. 6A will be a blood bath that's for sure. The south will be better 1-16 but the North will have PR.

6A playoffs this year will have some of the best games of all the brackets IMHO. No mention of Montini as a possible state champion?? Barring injuries they will be in the hunt for sure.

 

[Wassup13]

Who are the 2nd through 5th best teams in 6a?

 

[JFelice]

They did, and honestly I don't mean it as a knock on Peoria, they're really good and will be again this year but PR is ridiculous. Ridiculous and a very bad stylistic matchup.

 

[JFelice]

Who are the 2nd through 5th best teams in 6a?

Your guess is as good as anyone's. Looking at Soucie's projected field it's absolutely loaded.

 

[godfthr53]

off the top of my head probably like Naz, Montini, SHG, Crete, Peoria in any order. you're better off 2-10 and just picking order out of a hat.

Imagine if EStL had no petitioned up to 7A

 

[LHSTigers94]

Imagine if EStL had no petitioned up to 7A

They would most likely be 5A this year.

 

[JFelice]

They would most likely be 5A this year.

Probably not

 

[cornerrat]

Imagine if EStL had no petitioned up to 7A

All.... It would of made the southern bracket of 16 post-season matchups even more exciting. Ratsy

 

[LHSTigers94]

Probably not

At a little over 1300 I'm sure they would have been but, if you know more I am good with that.

Kind of irrelevant at this point.

 

[Trojan Fox]

Cary should be on this list.

 

[greatgig13]

I thought PR was going to beat CG by 4 TD's and I'm a CG homer. Let's see what they do with Huntley and go from there.

 

[cornerrat]

Cary should be on this list.

All.... Absolutely. And a rematch with the Wolves in the "north" bracket of 16 would be a game the entire state would watch very closely. Ratsy
