Edit. damn sscore stream. NN loses! But score stream had it the other way around for NN win. Daily herald has Neuqua winning 28-7.

Damn ScoreStream. Now I’m less surprised with NN!!

Neuqua looked pretty tight. The D is rounding into shape. Not sure too many teams will be excited to see them in Round 1.

Agree. NV is going to make a lot of people feel queasy come round one playoff selection Saturday nite

Not a lot of 8-1 and 7-2 offenses are going to want to see WV’s Defense (until the 2nd half anyways) BUT they will be salivating and eager to see WVs Offense roll into town knowing they have a great shot to put up a shut out on the scoreboard.

WWS surprised me since they broke out their black and white uniforms which they haven’t worn in a few years, still my favorite uniforms,

Driving the 60 yards in the final minute and kicking 41 yard fg for the win wasn’t to bad either.

That’s a great win for South. And I like those black and whites as well. Tight.

Not really a surprise, Eisenhower coach is a total classless moron. Can’t believe he’s a coach. I’m not a coach, never was. Coaching kids to be great players is one thing, but aren’t you supposed to be an example too? I seriously couldn’t believe what I saw. Just terrible.

I won't ask you to expand since this is a public forum and we try to avoid that. I've got friends who were at the game so I'll ask them.

Why? He's appeared to be THE man for them all season long! I know it's a team game, but a player of that high a caliper IS sometimes the team, or a huge chunk of it.
No doubt he’s a high caliber talent. I guess I just didn’t expect that drastic of a drop off though. Definitely enhanced his consideration for player of the year.

Not really. BRs best team in almost 40 years. Tip the cap to Badke, game plan was solid and the QB caused plenty of problems for MCHS D. Don't think they can beat LWE but dominant last night.

I was actually referring to the De La Salle loss.

LWC losing to Thornton. What a late season slide for LWC. I would want to see their name tonight in 7A.

LWW winning by 1 at Andrew. That should NEVER happen. LWW typically a tough playoff team but this years offense is missing something.

Sterling...Oswego East....Stevenson

Argo with their heart came so very very close to making the playoffs.They didn't show up vs Oak Lawn until the 2nd half of that game.Oak Lawn is a team they should have beat & a bad play vs St.Francis & Reavis & they would be 6-3 or 7-2.Going in the right direction.St.Laurence.A schedule change(would have played CVS not Benet had they known the game wouldn't be played at Soldier Field) & 2 one point losses & those young kids would be 6-3.Great attitude & finish to a season.Youth & injuries hurt them.They will be back.Westmont.Sure they played a weak schedule but a winning season 5-4 & hope they can build on that.Very close to the playoffs.Evergreen Park.A great comeback season for them & nice to see them back in the playoffs.That conference outside of Richards & Shepard was dead even.Reavis.Hot start then injuries hit.Should have been 7-2 but got in at 5-4.Young and hope they go further up from here.Whitney Young.Going from no football to 8-0.Would have been 9-0 with the cancelled game.Hoping the numbers stay up and they keep doing great!!! Chicago Christian.Going to the playoffs after all these years.What a great job the coach & kids have done.The plug was nearly pulled on their football program & here they are in the state playoffs!!! Hope Academy.A thumbs down to the Catholic League for not inviting them in.The kids have been thru a lot the last few years & are building a pretty good program.Such nice people.Here is to hoping all of these schools keep getting up their numbers & continued success.

True, he's definitely one of those players which makes everyone around him play better.
