Feeto's Friday Upset Special.....

It always amazes me how quickly the regular season goes by. It's been a really interesting one so far, and upsets have been far and few between. This is when it starts to get real. This week's upset is...... The unranked, probably not playoff eligible Wolfpack of St. Ignatius over the #17 Crusaders of Br. Rice. Iggie will slow the game down to a snails pace, keeping the Rice offense off the field, and that's how you beat Rice. Ignatius is at home tonight, with absolutely nothing to lose. Rice is banged up, and already in the playoffs. To me this equals a low scoring St Ignatius victory. Final score....... Ignatius 17 - Br. Rice 14. That's this week's upset. What are your thoughts and who is your upset?

My Preliminary Week 10 Chicagoland Top 30 poll

A few thoughts here. Admittedly this is an incredibly conservative week on my part. No question the losses at the very top of the poll created a few issues and also having so many teams in say the 12-30 range all win this week did not help at all. If I'm a fan of say St Francis and/or St Charles North you are most likely pissed and I get that as well. Now that we are in the playoffs this will all shake out pretty quickly....and looking at this weeks poll...I generally still feel good about who I have ranked right now.

Thanks for all the kind words....

Had a blast doing the IHSA State Playoff Pairings Show with Dave Bernhard. Thanks for all the kind words of encouragement etc. Dave is someone who has been so important in my development over the years and has been a huge supporter and mentor for me as well. He believed in me from Day 1 and trust me tonight was pretty special for me getting to work together directly once again.
We've come a long way since Channel 3 in Joliet
