Can one really overstate their dislike for a school more than I can about Benet? Iād love to see 50 hung on them tonight. Go Broncos. š“
Benet-Montini
- Thread starter mchsalumni
- Start date
Benet is the 2 point favorite. What is the dislike for Benet? For me back in the day it was them controlling the SCC conference but also by far had the largest enrollment in the conference.
They are a great school academically so there is some jealousy there. What about you?
Douche factor + beating up on smaller schools and proclaiming dominance. They were never in the SCC though!
Almost positive they were at least in the early 80s. Montini played them in every sport every year back then
Because you can be pretty stupid and graduate from Montini while Benet has academic standards.
Benet was in the West Suburban Catholic Conference (WSCC). After the 1987-1988 school year, all schools except Benet and Providence left the conference which effectively ended the WSCC.
Thanks! Forgot about the name West Sububan Catholic Conference. Never did understand why Benet was in the conference since they were like double the enrollment size of all the other schools.
Why were they not playing in the CCL blue type conference with higher enrollment schools like MC, Loyola, BR and Provi?

When the Suburban Catholic Conference split into East and West in the early 1970's, somehow Benet went to the West. Agree, did not make sense from an enrollment standpoint.
I am not crying , enjoy your football win - Benet top to bottom is best Catholic sports program in west suburbs - hoops volleyball soccer softball on down the line
Montini football has not been very good since before covid in 2018,
They do have 6 football state titles since year 2000.
Iāve been watching that kid the last couple years and heās a good QB.
The only way we get 50 is if our Georgia recruit returns to Montini from IMG Academy.
Bronco victory!! 21-10, offense comes alive in the second half!
The play calling that resulted in the 3rd touchdown took balls of steel!
Broncos go to 4-0.

Sure thing bud, enjoy that soccer title. And the L you took tonight.
I didnāt say they were going to, I said I hope they do, and trust me, it was straight hope. Reading is fundamental kid.
Shooting your mouth off before the game and nervously quiet when losing and talking loud now what a p*ssy
Benet kids have already won the game of life Friday game would have just been a bonus
I was on a flight with no wifi bud. Keep crying though. Iāll make sure 3 of the Benet grads who report to me pay up on Monday.
Benet may not even the best soccer squad in the ESCC anymore.
I've come to know one graduate of Benet. He was friendly enough in every encounter I had with him. Nonetheless, it always struck me as peculiar how he mentioned he had attended Benet in just about every conversation I had with him in the workplace.
Though those conversations were rare, when I learned he had left the firm at which we became acquainted, I finally understood why the crown jewel of his life was matriculating through Benet.
A co-worker mentioned he had flunked out of EIU and eventually, and mercifully, completed his degree at NEIU.
Nice to have a thread smell like an early to mid 2010s Edgy Free side thread. Entertaining work gents.
Some good old Montini/ Benet hate is good for Illinois high school football. I wish I could break up a fight between Weber and Gordon guys. Letās be thankful for what we still have.
Don't hold back ... BTW, it's "graduated from Montini" not "graduate."
Darn those standards.
This is Catholic League football, no easy games remaining. Need to avoid turnovers and stay healthy. Receivers dropped a couple passes last night that should of been caught.
I always knew Benet had a bit of an air of superiority to it. But some of those posts in this thread to another level! Academically, it is behind Ignatius, Loyola and probably Fenwick. And let's be real, Naperville is no Kenilworth!
I'm shocked some Benet parent Karen in Naperville hasn't pressed the school to secede from Lisle and become part of Naperville. So brave of those parents to send their children to attend school in the mean streets of Lisle.
Graduated from SFHS in the mid-80s. When I was at SF, Benet had about 1,400 kids. The avergae enrollment of other old WSCC schools was about 600. SF and Montini were the next biggest schools at around 800.
I forgot all about Benet the day after I graduated high school, but every now and again I see some post here saying Benet got beat and it makes me laugh a little.
