Am I dreaming to think this game used to be the chatter leader of the week not that many years ago? Not a peep from the Lockport program…

Not quite as sharp as last week IMO, but the Broncos play well again and cruise to a win.

Close game in the first half until Montini kicked a late FG to make it 10-0. Had a takeaway and a TD in the final 30 seconds of 2Q to make it 17-0. Then returned the opening kick of the 2nd half inside the 10. 24-0 soon thereafter.

Montini is now 5-2 with Ignatius and Laurence left to play.

Maine East defeated Niles North 30 to 7 Thursday night. That was Maine East's first conference win in 12 years. They last won a conference game in 2012 when they beat Maine West.

The victory Thursday night was also their third overall win of the season, which they also last did in 2012.

With Highland Park on the schedule for next week, it is possible they might win a second conference game and fourth overall game this year.

It has been a wonderful season for the Blue Demons.

Game getting chirpy.

Week 7 already, and I've got to admit I'm having a tough year picking Upsets. Hopefully I can turn the tide. This week we'll visit a CCL Crossover game out in the Western Suburbs. This week's pick is..... The unranked Redwings of Benet Academy over the very hot, top 25 ranked Friars of Fenwick. The Friars are coming off a nice win over a good St. Laurence team. They are having a great year at 4-1, and have beaten a couple of quality opponents in Montini and Larry. Benet is a good team, and I watched them play well vs a healthy MC for the 1st half. If they can play some pass defense, they can beat anyone. I'll take the Redwings at home tonight. Final score..... Benet 24 - Fenwick 21. That's this week's upset. What are your thoughts and who is your upset?

First win for the Steelmen in 1,820 days, won at Plainfield Central.

the last time Joliet Central won, this year's players were in junior high.

Way to go NU!!!!

Great game management by Lausch, with zero turnovers.

Hearing it is now at Reed Dunning Park instead of Triton. Can anyone from Pat's explain the move?

Edit: Looks like a power outage in the area.
SUCKS for the Pat's Seniors on Senior Night.

Sycamore, Rochelle and Morris all up big

3 & Out for Redwings on opening series

Friars hit 2 passes for 45 yards
Nate Marshall 2 PT conversion.

Crazy night in the FVC

CG 44
Huntley 43

Huntley was up 43-29 with 6:16 left. CG scored 1:15, and got 2pt conversion.

Burlington Central 52
Prairie Ridge 21

PR QB on crutches, out whole game.

Yes. You read that right. Your Niles Notre Dame Dons scored. And it wasn't in garbage time. End of 1h when down 21-0. Actually almost had one in the 1q when down 14-0 but got stuffed on 4th down near the goal line.

On to Leo.

Sterling (4-2) @ Quincy (6-0): Last year Quincy won 35-33. The two teams still undefeated in conference play will sort that out this Friday. Quincy has been on a tear this season, putting up points in bunches and has yet to truly be challenged. QB Braydn Little has been stellar as he seeks to move up the IHSA record boards, but has been prone to turn the ball over when pressured. Sterling has won 4 straight with tough defense and getting just enough out of the offense. If Sterling wants a chance in this one, the offense has to figure out how to stay on the field and get the ball into the endzone. Sterling has never lost in Quincy, but that might be about to change.

Prediction: Quincy by 2 touchdowns.



United Township (3-3) @ Moline (4-2): Last year United Township won 42-28. Two teams that are still in the hunt for post season bids. Moline has looked balanced and tough in it’s four wins combining good defense with a hard running game. UT has lost two heart breaker close games and has looked good on defense, but the offense has only gone as far as the running game has taken it. If UT can find a way to break some big plays early, they stand a good chance at controlling the game. If one should be a good one as both teams need this win.

Prediction: Moline by a touchdown.



Thornridge (2-4) @ Geneseo (3-3): This is a “get it right” game for the Leafs who have been 1-3 in their past 4 games. The defense has played well, but their veer option offense has been held in check. This game will be a chance for Geneseo to get a much needed win against a struggling Thornridge team who is coming off a 67-0 beat down by Crete-Monee. Look for Geneseo to grind down the visiting Falcons and pull away after the half.

Prediction: Geneseo by 3 touchdowns.



Galesburg (1-5) @ Rock Island (0-6): Last year Galesburg won 24-7. Two teams who’s season has not gone the way either of them wanted. Rock Island hasn’t looked truly competitive since it’s week 2 loss to Dunlap. Galesburg has shown flashes at times of having a competitive football team, specially with Jamar Range at running back. I think Galesburg has the edge here, but if Rocky can put a full game together, they can get their first win of the year.

Prediction: Galesburg by 2 touchdowns.

Halftime

Ty to all who have helped with the massive flooding near me in East Tennessee!!!! There is a school who lost their football field,field house & a bunch of other things. They have had football games cancelled. So in order to get all their games in & try to make the playoffs 11th,15th,18th,21st & 25th they have games & here many of you cry about the old sat,wed,sat games lol.
