Eville at East Side

[crusader_of_90]

I hope this is a good game. What is so interesting about East Side is that there is no statistical star - everyone gets their touches.

Sophomore quarterback Reece Shanklin went 5-for-6 for three touchdowns and 199 passing yards last week against Alton. ... Senior Kendrick Lyons is 83-for-116 passing for 1,228 yards and 11 touchdowns. ... Senior Larevious Woods leads team with 425 yards on the ground and 12 scores. ... Senior TaRyan Martin has 235 rushing yards on 22 carries. ... Sophomore Ronnie Gomiller leads the team with 409 receiving yards and seven scores. ... Junior Keandre McClendon has four sacks to go along with a team-high 76 tackles. ... Junior Raheem Floyd leads Flyers with three interceptions.

If this turns ugly, there is Cardinal Ritter at DeSmet. The Althoff game will be boring. Expect 300+ from Dierre in the first half if Frazier feeds him that much.

ESTL wins big, would not be surprised to see a running clock.

If I was the Althoff coach, I would not play the starters more than 2 or 3 series. Granite City is terrible this year and very young. Collinsville beat them 41-0 which Althoff beat 54-14. Would be a terrible game to get an injury in.

Althoff had a "team day" at the bowling alley yesterday ...

The worst thing you can do is put together a schedule that will not help you for the playoffs. We will see how this turnout.

 

[ODirty1]

Them first couple of rounds will be enough to get them ready. No injuries at a small school is key

Althoff has already played and beaten better teams than they will see in the 1A playoffs.

Next week is Kaneland.

And besides, since week 3, ESL has been coasting. It happens.

@crusader........ Was just thinking the other day this Flyer team is solid top to bottom on both sides of the ball. I thought back to LB3 senior year when everything revolved around him .... and rightly so! ESL is a different animal this year. Can't wait till Thanksgiving Saturday 🔶 🔷 🔶 🔷

Kinda sad that Kaneland isn’t very Kaneland this year. At the start of the season, this looked like it would be an awesome game. Now, not so much.

I was excited for that one too ... but, maybe next year.

Not a true statement and no need to be arrogant. That was the thought last year but the results were the results. At least last year St. Dominic gave you something to look at.

Legit question - Would Belleville East win 1A?

not if they lose to camp point central

Not this years team. I respect football no matter the level. To suggest they could win just because they are 8A says a lot.

I disagree. East's only 3 losses are to Althoff, Edwardsville, and East St Louis. There is no 1A team beating any of those 3 teams. East would win 1A without Althoff in it IMO.

Those games weren’t close except Eville which may have been focusing on ESL. Let’s not forget Althoff lost 2A a while back and didn’t make it to State last year. Not being to play a whole game may be an issue. We will see.

The thought that East, who can barely win playoff game can just walk through 1A is crazy

 

[crusader_of_90]

They had to play Tolono until the final score with seven seconds left!!!

Not really when you think about the type of programs they have to play as 7 and 8A. The level of play is like night and day. A few years ago during LW dynasty, some posters were thinking LW could win up to 4A, which was silly. To then go several classes above that to 8A is even crazier. To move a 8A team down to 1A is almost like a varsity-JV match. No way to prove it but East would do very, very well in 1A as would any .500 8A team.

Very true and if LW was a sling it around the field 30 times a game team they could possibly give Althoff fits but they don't throw. It will be a very bad matchup for LW running into the Althoff defense being able to stack 9 on the line.

I seem to recall many of these same discussions about Althoff last year. It’s very hard to prepare for teams that run offenses like Lw Cary etc. I think althoff found that out at Camp Point last year.

1A is as deep as it’s been in a long time. No cake walks for anyone let alone LW and Althoff.

CPC was slinging it so ...

 

[dcaudle68]

4 passes out of 55 plays is not my idea of slinging it. Unity threw 42 times.

 

[crusader_of_90]

But we gave them those first 30 points ... so it was not like they had great success on O.

Tolono ...

ESL 215 Conference Teams 0 so far this year.... geez.
Will Eville score?

FWIW (not much), CalPreps has LeWin over East 21-17

The 7 the LA got came on a coughed-up fumble recovery and run.
