Marist has a good 5-4 team in OPRF....possibly meet Ben Bryant and Lyons in round 2, then likely Loyola in quarters....that's a tough draw!

And Marist gave up 390 yards and 23 1st downs to a 3-6 5A team in Week 9. We will see how prepared they are for the 8A playoffs. Honestly, drawing a 5-4 OPRF and possibly Lyons in Round 2 is not a bad draw in 8A. Many others have much tougher draws.Marist has a good 5-4 team in OPRF....possibly meet Ben Bryant and Lyons in round 2, then likely Loyola in quarters....that's a tough draw!
I am going with GW to come out of the top of the 8A bracket. It seems they did a lot of experimenting and were able to find the right kids to start on defense. They are hungry. The first week's loss benefited them greatly. It kept them under the radar all year long so the pressure was off. In the playoffs, its easy to be loose and play when you are the underdog, but when favored, the noose gets tighter. The same happened with LA this year. It's going to be fun to watch.
Just for clarification you do realize that the team that beat them by 4 TDs is in that bracket? Also the team that beat that team is also in that bracket.
No doubt great coaching and history at GW but MS is known to have pretty good coaching too. They will have their chance at revenge next year at Wilson Field.In this instance it does not mean a thing. GW is a different team. They also got a nice dose of Fotis and I'm pretty sure that at a minimum know what to expect from him. Remember, they have you on film now against them, corrections will be made. Also, as you said,MS beat them by 4 touchdowns. They were embarrassed. I guarantee you they will have an edge. On top of that, posters on this board were ridiculing Duchon field. They love that field. I hope the two of you face off because it will be a fun game.
And if things go as planned you guys can start prepping for that next Saturday!No doubt great coaching and history at GW but MS is known to have pretty good coaching too. They will have their chance at revenge next year at Wilson Field.

XP has been pretty solid and if I remember correctly I think we hit a FG from a decent range. Kicker wasn't present for the game against Thornton so that's why the scouting report reflected an issue.Bones; how,s the B.B. kicking game? I feel it takes on such added importance with an inexperienced qb. The game plan will probably be tough defense, strong kicking game, run the ball and intermittent passing here and there. It,lol be tough but B.B. has the athletes to pull it off.
No one's looking past Warren especially with an unknown at QB. But that's why the key phrase was "if all goes as planned" I don't think it's in anyone's plan to lose (except the Bulls). It should also be Warren's plans to have MS prepping for GBW next Saturday.I’m just hoping Warren can compete Friday. Sure hope we can at least make it a game.
As I recall, there was a game last year in November. A re-match if I’m not mistaken. I’m not quite sure as my memory might be playing games with me again, but didn’t the results of that game seem to suggest the MS coaching staff was quite capable?No doubt great coaching and history at GW but MS is known to have pretty good coaching too.

MS4? Am I missing something? Weinergate?

Anh.. Not buying this one. I would be remorse if I didn't clarify that our loss to Hollywood last year was a far cry from what happened at Duchon field. We coulda,woulda,shoulda won the first game last year against LA.Unless MS is the one seeking revenge at Wilson field.

The brackets we all play will be available for anyone to see, so I' will lay it out there that I have GW pulling off the largest upset in the history of organized sports by beating LWE, only to suffer the let down of going o'fer against the Swagsters.
I do believe GW is a completely different team now than in August. Getting that loss out of the way allowed this team to figure our what they wanted to be. By the time they hit LT, you could tell they were feeling it. HC in the slop and a solid outing at OPRF and these guys are clicking.
They will still be 49 point underdogs to LWE, if they make it that far. But it sure will be fun to see those teams match up again like '12. My crystal ball goes dark after that.

As far as revenge goes, I'd rather meet Weinergate for all the marbles.
I know that just like I knew the Ramblers would pose as diaper parts for their team picture.Come on PR - You know that MS is not 4 td's better than GW. You also must know that in a game once in a while, when things start going south fast, they go south really fast. That's what I think happened and GW was never able to recover. Again, they need to get past LWE ( an uphill climb ) and MS needs to do their part.
Actually I didn’t know they would do thatI know that just like I knew the Ramblers would pose as diaper parts for their team picture.

What method do they get their kids????Phillips has a 3a enrollment, but the method by which they get their kids makes them pretty different from the typical “actual” 3a team.
Agree would love to see them with Rochester and IC battle it out in one of the classes.
IC once again will make a mockery of 3a. They might “actually” get all 5 running clocks this year instead of 4/5.
That’s fine PR. Comparing high school kids that work their tails off, are humble, excel in many facets of their lives to posing as sh.t says a lot about you. With the helmet logo, I assume you have a son on the MS team. How would you feel about unwarranted attacks on him and his teammates? Try to remember, it’s just a game.
No, I don’t have a son on this team, but I would be proud if I did. I know quite a few of the families and they are good kids. Again, attacking kids is not a cool thing to do. Be nice, you and yours may be interviewing for a job with them one day.That’s exactly the response I expected!
I guess yours was in the photo?
I didn’t attack anybody sweetie, all I did was reference an actual documented event that was posted on social media that people like yourself would ignore. I didn’t shorthand profanity , I didn’t reference a name. And yes, you’re response was exactly as expected.... Very predictable.No, I don’t have a son on this team, but I would be proud if I did.

They will still be 49 point underdogs to LWE, if they make it that far.
I didn’t attack anyone! I merely referenced an unbelievable action. I didn’t make social commentary nor did I reference politics or social status.Now you are attacking the folks from New Trier? This can’t be about football because MS is victorious year in and year out. As for the interviewing line, I think you can see it was written tongue in cheek. Sorry you didn’t see that. Again your comment about the team, was completely innapropriate. As for the number part, a bit to cryptic for me, I don’t know what you mean.
I’d take a shack in Park Ridge.[/
Nah... I live in one of those shacks, the property taxes are beyond absurd! 2yrs to go!
I have a copy of the Warren report.So nobody has the Warren tapes?
Amen brother! That’s why we moved to The Village of Niles.Nah... I live in one of those shacks, the property taxes are beyond absurd! 2yrs to go!
Bolingbrook should be heavily favored in round 1, Warren is too inconsistent. They didn't bother to show up against Barrington until the game was out of reach, then they take LZ to overtime (granted needed a hail mary to get to OT, but they still got their) and turn around and lose to Zion Benton.
