Last week was yet another easy to pick slate, I think this week we could see 2 decent games.
Reed-Custer (0-4) @ Wilmington (4-0) - Easy choice. Clocked by half. Wish this rivalry held a little weight and was at least somewhat close. Wilmo as many as they want - RC 7
Manteno (4-0) @ Lisle (0-4) - same as above listed game Manteno 56 - Lisle 6
Streator (1-3) @ Herscher (2-2) - Honestly I do not know much about these two teams. Research tells me that Herscher's wins hold a little more weight and they did play Chicago Christian decently tough (score only). Streator has been waxed in a few losses. The only thing that concerns me is Herscher isn't appearing to score a ton of points, either way give me the home Tigers for their third win and a CHANCE to get in the playoffs with 4 wins (if that is a thing this year again). Herscher 21 Streator 14
GOTW!! Coal City (3-1) @ Peotone (3-1) - This is a huge game with post season implications. If Manteno is legit then that is not a guarantee win for either of these teams. I hear CC quarterback is healthy again and I'm sure they want him on the field. I also think Peotone may be looking ahead to Manteno whereas CC basically has a glorified practice against RC next week. I like CC to win in a close but comfortable game. CC 35 Peotone 27
Definitely some better non-conference games this week.

All the scoring is done in the first half as the Warruors took a 1st quarter lead then Central scored twice in the 2nd quarter and that was it.
A lot of three and outs in the second half....
All.... It is coming up next season. An average of a schools enrollment from the previous two years. It is always interesting to see which schools still manage to hold their numbers or even increase them as well as others that are getting smaller.
And then you have the waivers for some privates sending teams for the most part into lower classes. Stay tuned.... Ratsy
