This might just be the game of the week. NC needs the win or probably no playoffs. East side has been steam rolling everyone, except for NV. They could get bumped up to 6A but I would enjoy seeing them in 5A. Maybe enjoy isn't the right word but face offs with other 5A contenders would be some games I would love to go to.
Is that even possible .. when I looked it didn't seem like 4 wins gets you in... But if they do... They may play LWE first round. WowI’m not soucie by any means but I’m thinking NC has a decent shot of making the playoffs at 4-5.
By my math it’s very possible.Is that even possible .. when I looked it didn't seem like 4 wins gets you in... But if they do... They may play LWE first round. Wow

lf that scenario plays out. How many 4 and 5 teams get into 8AIf the CPS strike cancels week 9 there is a decent shot. If not I don't think 4 wins gets in.
ESL will likely be 6a.
If any and MC draws them first round, does it really count as a 8A worthy playoff win?lf that scenario plays out. How many 4 and 5 teams get into 8A
MC is a lock for 7A... either way, the Lynch Bro’s brilliant offensive creativity will surely entertain...If any and MC draws them first round, does it really count as a 8A worthy playoff win?
NC Likely play winner of Oswego-Minooka first round (and win). Marist would be #31 seed because they will finish 4-5 and could draw LWE/ND/Loser of SPC gameIs that even possible .. when I looked it didn't seem like 4 wins gets you in... But if they do... They may play LWE first round. Wow
Joliet West will likely be another 4-5 playoff team.NC Likely play winner of Oswego-Minooka first round (and win). Marist would be #31 seed because they will finish 4-5 and could draw LWE/ND/Loser of SPC game
remember, they would take the 4-5 teams with the most playoff points regardless of class. Marist (52pts) would get in first then NC (48pts) St Laurence/Dakota/Whitney Young next in line. Joliet West isn't getting in, they no longer are listed on IHSA outlookJoliet West will likely be another 4-5 playoff team.
They are going to win the SPC East and get an automatic spot.remember, they would take the 4-5 teams with the most playoff points regardless of class.

I'm hoping they go to 6a. I don't think my Titans will have much of a chance from what I saw of the Batavia game. Assuming Boylan makes it out of a very tough 5a north bracket.This might just be the game of the week. NC needs the win or probably no playoffs.

Well, I did say JW would win the East, I just didn't expect it that way.Correct, Plainfield South (4-4, 3-1) host Romeoville while Plainfield East (4-4, 3-1) is at Joliet Central and Joliet West (3-5, 3-1)plays at Plainfield Central with all three possibly finishing in a tie. The tiebreaker is points allowed in head-to-head games with West at 36, South at 49 and East at 52. (per Soucie's article)

Flyer, is there any team in 5a that can give ESL a tough matchup?AS of this week ESL is bouncing between 5A and 6A , IHSA outlook this week is back to 5A. Will not be known until final tally.

Corey: Its a little selfish on my part to see ESL stay in 5A. They obviously have the talent to play against 6a and higher classes but I would really like to see how Montini, Rita, Hillcrest, and JCA, would stack up against them. It's high school football and anything can happen on any given day. The last time I saw East Side play was at East Side's stadium against Montini several years ago.Gene
With all do respect since ESL is ranked #1 in the State why wouldn’t you like to see them play the other top teams in the state. Loyola, MC, Warren, LWE. Wouldn’t you rather they play up to the competition? I certainly would enjoy seeing these match ups.

Last years 5A championship between Montini and JCA, was won by JCA who came in with a worse won lost record than Montini's, so you never know how a game will turn out. Nequa Valley proved to me in their game versus ESL earlier this year, that a team with good QB, who can sling the ball and run the option as well as a good running back has a chance for the upset. That team would also need to have a pretty decent defense to stop the potent Flyer offense. Turnovers, home field advantage, and penalties can also impact any game that is played in HS football. Maybe just wishful thinking on my part though!
I don't think many will. I think the LOS will be a problem on both sides of the ball for NC.I wonder how many will pick this game as their Feeto.
Less shocking things have happened. Hell, they are an 8A team!
It will be the sexy pick. Make the playoffs or season over. Flyers on the road once again - and it was a tough row to hoe last time, narrowly winning.I don't think many will. I think the LOS will be a problem on both sides of the ball for NC.
