Six CS8 teams made the playoffs: Rochester, U High, and Lincoln in 4A, SHG and MacArthur in 5A, and Chatham in 6A.

Two Friday night and three Saturday afternoon games, with one contest a rematch of CS8 teams.

I think there will be 4 CS8 teams advance to the second round.

Friday
4A #16 Lincoln (5-4) at #1 Rochester (9-0)
Congratulations to Lincoln for making the playoffs for the first time since 1984. These teams have played previously in Week 7 at Lincoln. At the time, the Railers were 5-1. However, their 5 wins came against opponents who ended the season with a combined record of 8-37. Lincoln lost their last three games of the season pretty decisively to playoff teams (Rochester 55-0, U High 49-28, and Chatham 42-14). Rochester 51 Lincoln 7

4A #9 U High (7-2) at #8 Coal City (7-2)
A mea culpa to start. I picked U High to be 8th in the conference in August. They were 3-6 last year, hadn't been in the playoffs since 2015, and had to replace a 2-year starting QB. U High finished 2nd in the CS8 and was the surprise of the conference this season. Unfortunately for the Pioneers, their 7-2 record does not get them a home playoff game. They have wins over 2 playoff teams: MacArthur and Lincoln. Their losses were to playoff teams SHG and Chatham. The Pioneers are led by Junior QB Alek Weiland, who has thrown for over 1,800 yards and 20 TD's and also has 7 rushing TD's. Coal City is a perennial playoff team. Their two losses were to 5A power Morris (43-3) and 2A power Wilmington (28-0). They have one win over a playoff team, beating 3A Peotone. Winning on the road in the playoffs is difficult. U High has a quick strike offense which can put up lots of points. Their defense has, however, given up 28-35 points each of the last three weeks. I would pick U High if the game was at ISU but think the Coalers playoff experience gets them a win at home in a one-score contest. Coal City 27 U High 23

Saturday
5A #9 SHG (6-3) at #8 TF North (7-2)
SHG ended the regular season with two losses but played much better in Week 9 against Rochester than in Week 8 versus MacArthur. Having seen QB Levi Hanauer play twice this season, I thought he looked much improved against the Rockets last week. With RB Christian Pollard, they have a balanced offensive attack. TF North is in the playoffs for the first time since 2011. They have one win over a playoff team (6-3 Hillcrest) and have lost to two 5-4 playoff teams (Bremen and Lemont). Lemont clinched a playoff spot last week by beating TF North on the road 19-18. This is a favorable road matchup for the Cyclones. SHG 33 TF North 17

5A #11 MacArthur (6-3) at #6 Metamora (7-2)
No team in the CS8 is as hot as Mac is currently. After a 1-3 start, which included a disputed last second TD loss to Jacksonville, the Generals have won 5 in a row. They have wins over Chatham and SHG during the streak and running clocked 6A qualifier Bloomington 54-10 last week on the road. The combination of QB Cameron France, RB Myson Johnson Cook, and WR Sam Owens has been scoring lots of points. The offense has big play capability and Freshman Johnson Cook already has an offer from the University of Illinois. The Generals defense has improved as well during the winning streak. Metamora has won 5 straight too, are a perennial playoff team, and it's always a challenge to beat them at home. Their losses are to two very good teams: 6A Washington 45-7 and 5A Morton 45-19. I've picked Mac to lose three times this year where they've ended up winning. Don't want to put the hex them, but I think that the Redbirds are a favorable opponent for the Generals. The speed of Johnson and power running of France should carry the day. MacArthur 41 Metamora 26

6A #11 Bloomington (5-4) at #6 Chatham (6-3)
Bloomington was routed 54-10 last week at home by MacArthur. They have played a tough schedule but none of their four losses were particularly close. The Purple Raiders do have three wins over playoff teams, Danville (who the Titans also beat in Week 1), Peoria Notre Dame, and Champaign Centennial. Chatham bounced back from a Week 8 loss to Rochester by beating Lincoln at home 42-14 last week. Chatham usually plays well at home, although they lost in the 1st round of the playoffs last year to Quincy. Sophomore QB Colton Knoedler has shown steady improvement and threw three TD's last week to fellow Sophomore WR Blake Lehnen. I don't see Bloomington rebounding from their running clock loss with an upset road win. Chatham 38 Bloomington 20

All.... Sammy briefly when the Redbirds were in play Saturday morning brought up the 2001 game and the field incident when the Cyclones traveled to Metamora in a third round game that year,

They went to call the game as usual on the radio. Asked whoever what happened to the field. The explanation a baseball coach accidently turned on the sprinkler to water the baseball field and it was the football field. I believe a third round game would be in November.
I couldn't believe it when I arrived at Malone field. Half the field was really unplayable and SHG had a speed team that year. Oh I heard it all on the PJStar forum board Sprinkler malfunction, lightning strike caused the sprinker to turn on. Blah, blah, blah.

No worries though for Mac. Malone Field was turfed last year. Ratsy

The first year I followed Rochester was 2009. My wife worked with the mother of one of the Rockets best players, and I started following the games. I wasn't at the semi-final 41-40 loss at Metamora where Derek went for two and the win in the final seconds. A very, very late PI call that kept a Metamora drive alive still sometimes comes up in conversation. In 2010, the semi-finals were at Rochester and the Rockets got revenge, winning 50-17.

All.... The Metamora fans to this day don't like Coach Leonard.(Derek) Back when the PJStar forum was crazy busy with posters (I was one of them) a huge Redbird contingent ruled. I used to argue with a half a dozen at a time (go figure lol) when they brought up Rochester and SHG. Only got booted off once by a volunteer board moderator who was from yep.... Metamora. Served the time and came back at them once again even harder. lol

I was at that Rocket/Redbird game that ended 50-17. Across the street at a Rocket tailgate. Rochester fans were riled up and so was the team. It was sweet. Had a good time. Metamora players were leaving the stadium in tears when the game ended. I kid you not. ratsy

Well thought ought analysis as always!

U-High @ Coal City - As your prediction shows, I too think the Coal City/U-High game is the most balanced contest. My thoughts on this game: Does Coal City's playoff history and homefield advantage off-set the 3A-4A schedule they play. While it is an away game for the Pioneers, they play what is basically a 4A-6A schedule.

SHG @ TFN - After last year's 2nd round playoff against Waterloo which only turned in the Cyclones' favor after a remarkable defensive play on 4th down in the 4th quarter, I am reluctant to pick them as a winner on the road against anyone. This team is not good enough (1) to go into any game over-confident (which has happened in the past) even on the road, and (2) it is not good enough to rile up an opponent by running out to the middle of the field and dance or whatever on the home team's logo (which has also happened in the past). If they don't get burned by these two things I think they win, but I'm not confident enough in them to say it will be a 16-point victory.

MacArthur @ Metamora - If the last two weeks are any indication, it appears that the Generals are playing more mistake-free ball. If they stay out of their own way, I also see them winning this game, and perhaps by the 15 points (or more) you have them winning by.

Bloomington @ Chatham - I'm not sure about the 18-point margin you have given them, but Glenwood should win this game.

There is definitely a chance for four CS8 teams to move on.

On a broadcast some years ago, Sammy said he found out from a reliable source that the sprinkler situation was NO accident. But I never heard it from the "reliable" source myself, so I really don't know what the true situation was. If it is true, then that's a whole different animal than simply letting the homefield grass grow, which teams have done in the past. Less and less of that happening today with turf, of course.

Thanks, you make good points and observations here.

Regarding U High, they may be the opposite of Mac at this point of the season. The Pioneers seemed to peak about Week 6 and haven't played quite as well since. The Chatham loss in Week 7 was a decisive 35-0, and they had trouble stopping the running attacks of both Lincoln and Jacksonville the last two weeks.

Mac seemed unlikely to even make the playoffs after losing to U High in Week 4. Now, I think they could make a deep run in 5A if they win this weekend.

I don't know about this year, but if I remember correctly Coal City used to be a run-heavy team. Trouble for the Pioneers? We will see. Maybe 4Anorth can check in since his guys played them first game this year. Any info is appreciated.

And you're right, Mac could go deep They don't have a bad draw and I still think that if they play disciplined ball, they will be dangerous in their South Bracket group of eight.

All.... TFN was leading Lemont at half in their week nine game. The Injuns (they used to be called that) rallied in the second half and beat the Meteors 19-18. That caught my attention. Should be a fun one when the Cyclones come calling. Ratsy
 
All.... A heads up for SHG fans that plan to attend the game. Haven't heard anything yet from SHG on ticket sales. TFN use the ticket system from GoFan in regular season games and is showing the same for the playoff game. They have home and SHG tickets listed. Five bucks and 1.25 service fee. The Gofan app is easy to install and use.

Also there are several TFN rules shown to get access into the stadium. The main one a valid ID. I suspect that one is because they have a ban list for individuals. ☺️ Ratsy

We've been hearing this for 14 years... How long does "the trickle" take, by your estimation?

13 playoff appearances in that time frame. Bc Covid...
9 double digit win seasons in that time frame.
3 Ottoman Stamped and Approved Titles ('13, '14, '22)
2 Ottoman Shamed and Scolded Runner-ups ('16, '21)
 
I know these GrossNoises hurt you to hear. You are living in the past and that will be your downfall. Continue to tell the disenfranchised athletes of 186 in the handshake lines that there are greener pastures at Our Lady of Perpetual Sports, but without a Leonard at the helm you guys are destined for mediocrity. I know you're scared and you should be. I know you hate seeing an alumni render you guys useless, but DL is a class act and that's why they did not score 100 on you.

Quiet as church mouses the last two years knowing what was coming.☺️ I might have to do what I did with Stangs on the other board that drove him crazy. A no reply until a total of 50 comments because of their inane child like nature, intent, and subject content . That count meter seems to have started. ;) Ratsy

pub supporters wearing pullups telling private school guys that they don't "own" kids has to be the funniest **** I've ever read on a message board. We literally multiplied, success factored the entire private sector in sports in this state bc of decades long incessant whining about them demolishing your programs based on your belief that kids in a district should be yours for the taking alone... and bc you just didn't want to work any harder at the pubs... with hands out every August, "give us our money and our kids, State of Illinois"

good one man... simply brilliant. 🤣 I needed a good laugh today.

I sure hope they can... These folks in Arthur are acting like the 85 Bears are coming to town... Idk how to tell 'em, if we somehow pull this off, that this is one of the weakest QND teams since 1992 when Bill Connell showed up and flipped the switch on this program for good. Regardless, I'll be eatin' good in the Amish neighborhood that day. Yoders-leyheewho!!!

Same thing people said after a 6-3 season and a playoff loss to Rochester in 2019-2020...which was followed by the #1 polled team in 5A during Covid, and 2 more state title appearances. Positional coaches, coordinators, resources, talent pool all remain unchanged. KL not super involved in scheme/gameplan these past 5 years anyway...those who attribute this "poor" year to coaching change rather than extreme talent deficiency (by SHG standards) are misguided.

I can tell you're really hurt by these GrossNoises. It's fine, go put on your 2004 lettermans jacket and brace for all the running clocks in your future. It's funny that you're bashing the newly rejoined Lincoln squad as if QND is going to be anything different when they join the CS8. You have a lot of long road trips ahead of embarrassing losses. Maybe you guys should put some of that tuition money in fixing that dump of a building you call a school.

I agree with Cycs21 there is no talent in that school and none on the horizon.

Anyways, back to the discussion. Here's what's going to happen:

SHG will get the basketballs out after TFN rings them up 28-10.

Rochester will put Lincoln out of their misery quick 56-0.

Coal City will beat U-High 35-21.

Glenwood will beat Bloomington 28-6.

Metamora is going to end MacArthur's little Cinderella run 21-13.

Don't be mad at these timely GrossNoises hitting your ears in this present day.

Proving you're the dullest tool in everyone's shed...

Who the heck has purchased a letterman jacket post 1988? Now we know you're old too. Aging like a sh**ty Illinois fruit wine I see...

QND will clock Lincoln almost every year.

QND has improved it's facilities and school, clearly you haven't been over to check it out in over a decade. A simple google maps search would show such, or a youtube search. But that requires that your left brain is working properly. So please, stay the f**k out of Quincy. We already have a meth problem. We don't need meth and chosen-ignorance in abundance. We have enough aging Republicans to hold that fort down.

QND already travels for games. Are you really this dumb? We played in the MS6 for a brief time. Life as an independent we're well seasoned travellers. Tis what it tis... I'll continue to educate the poor and stupid since the public sector failed you...

Metamora*... talk about a program no one remembers ever existed. Is that same coach still there? Wonder what heppened? I mean DL kinda put him into the land of irrelevance way back in 2010 but still... talk about a well that's dried up. Mac by 20. Edit: It would seem Pat Ryan has since retired. Too bad. Good coach, loudest idiot in the multiplier scam bunch though. He's an important guy to thank for the influx of private schools in your lower classes now.. you get what you b**** for I guess...

Glenwood is pathetic. Bloomington by 13

U-high is overrated.

Rochester 70-0

SHG will win. You're a terrible troll.
 
Wow, you sound hurt by these DisgustingSounds from GrossNoises. Are you okay? I promise you everything will be fine. Enjoy the game this weekend. I can tell you are someone who gets angered easily and often. This undoubtedly contributes to what must be a poor home life. I am praying for you. I will speak these GrossNoises to our Lord tonite.

BTW, you guys will clock Lincoln almost every year? Super tough, much impressive.

Thanks for the prayers. Make sure you wear your helmet...
 
The Channel 1450 picks are in, and they went all-in for the CS8: Rochester (3-0), U High (3-0), SHG (3-0), MacArthur (3-0) and Chatham (3-0).
 
I agree. Sometimes I think the best of all time should reveal itself by kneeling the first 3 plays of each set of downs. Only going for it on 4th. Always living on the edge with all the pressure exhibited each play. I think the kids should practice their knees. To be the ultimate team. The ultimate player. Sometimes I take knees in my living room. Sometimes I dream of going to Speaker Pelosi's house and doing knees there. Sometimes I fake taking a knee.

rocket, are you surprised that both TFN and Coal City did not receive at least one vote? They are both hosting, and the teams they are hosting have not been anywhere near barn-burners this season.

I am surprised about Coal City, not so much about TFN. U High has definitely outperformed expectations this year but has no recent playoff experience. Coal City is a perennial playoff team. That experience and the home field advantage could be a factor in a close game.

TFN is in the playoffs for the first time since 2011. I know SHG has not particularly impressed you. I've seen them twice, against Chatham and Rochester. I thought they showed considerable improvement, especially at QB, from Week 5 to Week 9. With Lemont being down a bit this year, I also think TFN's conference wasn't as strong as the CS8.

CS8 can be a bit overrated based on the extreme success of Rochester and SHG the last 2 decades. The rest of the conference is rather pedestrian, but not pedestrian enough that they are not gonna piss pound QND on a weekly basis (seriously why would they add this tiny, talentless school with no tradition of meaningful success?). I think the mix with the Bloomington schools really exposed them this year. Really looking for the days Springfield and Chatham figure it out and put quality products on the field year after year instead of the one off loaded classes that comes every 10 years.
