PC -29

While SR MC week had the fanbases exchanging wine and roses, BR and MC a tad more hostile heading into the last scheduled match up. I only see MC improving each week as they stack up practices. I also don't see BR going quietly into the dark night. MC 26-20

It is extremely amusing to me that Calpreps has SR a TD favorite on a neutral site while USA Today Massey (which has a home team option) has LA a 21 point (35-14) favorite on the road. I mean how can the algorithms be so different? We need feeto's stoic analysis to make heads or tails of this situation. LA doesn't get to spoil too many homecomings but the SR schedule sort of forced the hand as it is SRs homecoming. I can picture the Coaches office during that announcement. As an alum, just hoping the Mustangs fight hard, clean and spirited for 4 quarters. LA 30-17

FW +7 hard to win on the road after a big statement win, but the cadets have been waking observers up all season.

MCHS -7
Iggy -24

AC -1
LEO +48 SL wins handily but it is the coach's alma mater
SJ -16

St. Liz...take a bow. This is one level below genius and one level above psychotic. You, among the many gifts you have given to us over the years, have outdone yourself. Drop the mic and retire.

I was going to say take Hope with the points against PC, until I saw what Larry did to them.

Feeto loves Brother Rice week more than Rita week or Loyola week. Beautiful site lines form comfortable seats, friendly people, great hot dogs, abundant parking. I'm sure will expound upon it when he picks BR to upset MC this week.

I was thinking the same thing because we know blue coaches just get out of the crossovers healthy and with a win. But I think PC will use the game to get a better rhythm to their offense. It's hard to define but it just seems like a lack of crispness with their really good talent set.

I would definitely the MC +7. Not feeling confident on the game though. MC has lost 8 consecutive Blue games.

Ignazio,

Marmion and Montini will handle Fenwick and Delasalle.

I have to give the edge to Ignatius over SF this weekend.

The AC @ Bmac game should be a good contest. I wish I knew more about this year's Bmac team beyond their record. Anyone with insight?

BR (1-4) @ MC (3-2) [2017] Brother Rice (Chicago, IL) 28, [2017] Mount Carmel (Chicago, IL) 21 - will there be a presentation of the Prep Bowl invite at the end of the game?

HUGE Win for the Friars: 47-36

Fenwick jumped out to a 34-7 lead in 3Q and held on to win its 2017 Homecoming Game over previously undefeated Marmion.
