Where To Go Week 1?

[FootballTrack8]

About a month away from kickoff, where to go Week 1 is a question?

 

[Trojan Fox]

First time in two years Cary vs PR isn't the game to be....

 

[redmen85]

Coal City has to be on the short list!

 

[Southland Fan 2016]

BR

 

[woody6]

LW East @ Crete-Monee* or LW Central @ Richards. (*I wonder how the Griffin following will be shoehorned into those visitor stands).

 

[LakeCtyNewt]

Make the drive North Barrington @ Warren week 1 should be a good one.

 

[kitty_bintingot]

Hinsdale Central @ Naperville Central

 

[Cross Bones]

Hinsdale Central @ Naperville Central

Grey Poupon Bowl

I'll add GBW @ Maine South - can the Hitters exact a measure of revenge?

Or the 7th installment of The Joust on Jane's Avenue between the Beloved and the Alma. The last two have been lopsided affairs but the prior 4 were decided by a combined 4 points.

JCA vs ST. RITA. HAS TO BE IN TOP 3 of games to watch.

 

[Bwm57]

Yeah, it’s hard to argue with GBW vs. Maine South.

 

[godfthr53]

I'll be at Nazareth vs Lutheran North (MO)

 

[crusader_of_90]

Althoff and IC in Bloomington.

 

[FootballTrack8]

I am torn between Marist/BR & Rita/JCA

 

[OPRF Illini 96]

Will probably go to Waubonsie Valley at Oak Park-River Forest. Two usually strong teams that had down seasons in 2017 will be looking for redemption in 2018.

.

Not sure if the Hitters can bounce back after last years beat down, but I bet GW is happy to have Cox on turf. Kid is a big time home run hitter.

 

[Jchill-1]

Trust me, JCA vs Rita will be a game to go to.

 

[Wilmatucky]

Coal City has to be on the short list!

Coal city/Morris or Wilmington/Manteno? Undecided where I’m going. Which one I8 guys......only reason I’m considering the CC game is A) the sheer history of the matchup. First time ever meeting for two schools ten minutes away that were relatively close in size. And B) I wouldn’t mind an excuse for a Babes bloody and burger!

 

[Gene K.]

I 'd go to Coal City/Morris!

 

[flyerforlife]

I will be in Detroit to see ESL Flyers vs King

I'm biased here but the CC/Morris game is going to have an electric atmosphere. It will be the biggest crowd we've had in ages. Hopefully the Coalers can make a game of it

I’m leaning toward CC because of the environment. You can’t beat that small town, big game feel. I think it could rival the ‘04 CC/Wilmo crowd. Do you know if they play at Morris next year?

Yes next year CC opens at Morris

 

[IgorStL]

Saturday @ NIU has the triple header.

 

[Wilmatucky]

Wilmo game will be on 105.5. I’ll be going to CC and listening to Wilmo!

Wouldn't it be great to see two adjoining states preseason top 10 play each other for week 1...

IL vs MI
IL vs MO
IL vs IA

Not really.....there are enough great potential matchups waiting to happen here in IL. Plus then you get into the arguments of which state has better football. In college the kids from MO really thought MO football was tough. But we had more IL kids start than MO kids.
