I watched the MP/Marist game on You Tube. Granted Jovan Clark didn't play but Marist DL, especially the 2 DE's, just dismantled MP OL. The QB was running just about every pass play. It was the first game of the year and it was hot, so maybe the MP OL has improved but it looked like to me is that they way to beat them and negate their speed is having a strong front 7.

Tinley Park barely beat Argo so they didn’t rank high in my book.

Morgan Park at Metamora

I've seen MP play several times this year their strategy is to play 7 on 7 in pads IMO:rolleyes:. CPL wasn't as competitive this year so them being tested since Marist hasn't happen. Last week seeing Tinley Park didn't show much besides if your team eats the clock they also need to be able to score the ball.
I'm taking the drive to Metamora, But will this be a ball game or should i just look for a place to eat after the game ?

Per Friday Night Drive CG FB/LB Logan Abrams out for the season

No doubt its a big loss, but CG will do what CG does. Next man up, they have won with big FB like Abrams, Norberg, Pennington, and they won with smaller FBs like Blake Skol and Eric Chandler. The toughest part is making sure that the mesh from the QB and the FB is right.
Everyone wants to give the credit for CGs success to their style of offense, and that is certainly part of it, but the style of Offense is part of their overall culture that no one is bigger than the team, and that culture is defined and enforced by the players as much or more than it is by the coaches.

Most championship teams have a culture that no player is bigger than the team. That is a standard. Regardless of culture, impact players are impact players otherwise teams with great cultures will win championships EVERY year. What is the deciding factor when both teams have the same culture? In most years, there is a game or two during the championship run that the impact players have to perform at a certain level to get you a championship. Football is the ultimate team sport however to suggest that anyone can do anything is false. Special players do exist on great teams.

WB6 Week 11 Playoff preview

S
Moline @ Quincy: Played week 4 to the tune of a 43-21 Quincy win. But sucky that two of the three remaining WB6 teams play each other round 2, but tis the way of things. Last time these two teams played, it was in Moline. Now, Quincy gets to host. Always harder to play a team the second time around in a season. Moline needs to get a few stops on defense early and the offense needs to hold on to the ball for some long grinding drives. The less time Quincy’s offense can put their flying circus on the field, the more chance for the Maroons. For Quincy, the defense needs to play tough in the trenches against Moline’s ground and pound and get the ball in their offense’s hands as often as possible. Quincy’s offense can not come out sluggish like it did last week. I think Moline can play Quincy tighter this time around, but Quincy still has too much firepower to overcome.

Prediction: Quincy by 2 touchdowns

Geneseo @ Depaul Prep: After railroading through the number 1 seed (yeah, yeah, I know), Geneseo gets a much sterner test against Depaul. Depaul overwhelmed Chicago Dyett 48-8 last week. Depaul looks like they are a fast, athletic spread team with a quarterback who can both sling the rock and take off and beat you with his legs. Their only big loss of the season was to Loyola, but other than that, their other two losses were close affairs (including a 41-38 tilt against St. Francis). Geneseo has not handled athletic teams very well this year and will need to rely on their ground game to limit the amount of game time their defense spends running after athletes. Still a very winnable game for the Leafs.

Prediction: Depaul by a touchdown

Pretty rare feat I would guess

The Maine South/West/East thing is what got me thinking about the success of L-W East/West/Central fb this season.
I am a believer in the theory that top-end football programs are "destination" schools and top prospects' families tend to gravitate toward those programs rather than a middlin' program, and thus I would think that the the District 210 football situation would resemble the situation that exists seemingly forever with the "Maines."
That it's not is something I find rather impressive.
Looking at comments and trying to recall the past, it's definitely possible that at some point, the Napervilles and/or Wheaton's were all strong at the same time.
And I looked this up: In 2021, Cary-Grove won the 6A state title, and the other three schools in the district all qualified for that year's playoffs. While Cary went 5-0 in the playoffs, Crystal Lake Central won two rounds before losing to Cary-Grove; Prairie Ridge won two rounds before losing; and only Crystal Lake South went bust in the first playoff round.
That is a heckuva accomplishment by a four-school district.

The Maine South/East situation was discussed a while ago ->

Park Ridge Maine East

1855 Enrollment according to IHSA. Scored only 75 points while giving up 398 this season. I see the job is open and I'm wondering what the situation is there? Is it a player thing, a lack of coaching, bad administration or something else? I can understand a 1-8 record but that is a pretty...
