Bowl Games

[Illgold22]

So I said it before, but maybe start a new convo now. If there’s not going to be IHSA playoffs(not saying there won’t be, just going off rumors of none), then why not mirror college football and play single bowl games? Try and create a certain number of sponsored bowl games and let the bowls select who they want. Could be a lot of fun seeing Rochester vs Glenbard West, LWE vs East St. Louis, Naz vs Edwardsville, Mt Carmel vs Warren. Fills the void of not playing for a championship and not having to play 5 extra weeks?? Thoughts? Dream match-ups?

but personally the Pepsi Joliet Bowl of LWE vs East side would be great!!!

get it done! This really is not even hard to get done. 1 extra game, big time selections, enrollment means nothing. I’ll give some other good ones

HF vs Chi Phillips
Marist vs Minooka
Bro Rice vs Naperville C.
Huntley vs Brook
Providence vs LIncoln Way West

so many options! And your right. Get guys like you, Soucie, Mike O, maybe some old retired coaches.
Gosh I should run IHSA football. Jk!

How about Huntley vs Huntley?

 

[MC63]

I want LWE.

Maybe it IS meant to be PC vs LWW as the Battle of Gougar Road in New Lenox?

 

[missingwalter]

I'd like to See Providence/Minooka over Marist and it would probably be a much better game.

 

[Googertys Dog]

Batavia vs Naz maybe at Batavia this time..

 

[godfthr53]

Batavia vs Naz maybe at Batavia this time..

Sure after everyone transfers out.

 

[missingwalter]

I'd be up for Naz/Oswego bowl game as well.

 

[sporthog9er]

I'd want LWE vs Rita and Provi vs LWC

 

[Googertys Dog]

I thought Naz would just reload, they have a good coach and program.. Why would Oswego want to play them if everyone transferred out?

Actually my son has been on the losing side twice and wanted another chance, that's all. I liked his suggestion, you wanna get after the folks in front of you..

I wanted to play them prior to them transferring out, however, the former OHS players still there would make it a fun game.

 

[cornerrat]

All.... The "Leonard Bowl!" Especially if SHG doesn't get an opportunity to play Rochester due to district scheduling. With what the Cyclones are going to put on the field this year it will sting if these two schools don't meet up. Ratsy

Actually, I'd love to see an Oswego/Batavia or Kaneland game.

How many transferred out besides JJ and IN wr? This years Batavia team would’ve loved to get after JJ one more time. Gotta beat the best to be the best.

 

[missingwalter]

At least two others, One (DL) is transferring and graduating early and another kid left right away to Iowa - C/LS

 

[Gene K.]

The Southwest side bowl: #1: Gage Park versus Kelly or #2 Bogan versus Kennedy. Lol

 

[Richmond Burtman III]

The Southwest side bowl: #1: Gage Park versus Kelly or #2 Bogan versus Kennedy. Lol

Or Richmond vs Burton.

How about Huntley vs Huntley?

I like all your picks. These games would all be interesting and exciting to watch.
