Let's start by saying the obvious...SUPERBOWL SUPER BEARS!! RIP #51. Now on to our upsets. I'm going to the Chicago Catholic League once again this week, and picking a team that constantly ends up in my thread. This week's upset is..... The 2-4 Roadrunners of Nazareth Academy over the still some how #24 ranked Crusaders of Br. Rice. As long as Coach Q from Rice continues rotating his QB's, they won't be a good team. This game is at Naz, and that's always a tough place to get a win. Nazareth seems to enjoy starting their season slow and then making a late move to the playoffs. This will be a really close game tonight, and I think coaching will be the biggest factor. Racki>Quedenfeld. I like the Roadrunners tonight. Final score, Nazareth 28 - BR. Rice 24. That's this week's upset. What are your thoughts and who is your upset?
Feeto's Friday Upset Special......

Chicago Academy over Lincoln Park. It's Pumpkin Spice Season. Therefore, it's the time of year when the LP chariot turns back into a Pumpkin (Spice).
I don't know how they are still ranked in the Times either, he's really putting a lot of weight in on the week 1 win over Maine. Anyways, I figured this one will get a lot of action so I will take the other CCL Blue team that is facing a good team on the road. I'll take St. Francis over St. Rita. Do I think this will happen? No, but it's called an upset for a reason. Last week I picked SR to upset LA and they played them tough. SF will do the same. They are at home, SR is banged up, I don't think this one is too far fetched.
I don't hate this pick, but I think Coach Hop will get it done tonight in a close one.
Yorkville is coming off a big win over Minooka. I'm gonna say they keep it going and win at Oswego.
McCaravan mentioned this in the CCL/ESCC predictions thread. CoM is a 14-point dog, per Gambletron, on the road against Provi. I like the Corsairs over the Celtics.
Massey’s got Evanston as a 6 point favorite. I didnt check Calpreps.
Got this from calpreps:
Geneva (IL) at Wheaton North (Wheaton, IL), 7:00pm [projection and percent chances to win: Geneva (IL) 27 (80%) Wheaton North (Wheaton, IL) 14 (20%)]
IMO that's what makes it even more possible- year after year GBS was good and it looked like GBS might beat MS but never did. Now they come in a dangerous 2-4 team fighting for their playoff life. Everyone would say 2-4 vs 5-1.. no way. But that's exactly what this weekly thread is all about.
Great call. I think Hoffman wins by two scores. I feel like Hoffman would be a problem in 6a. Likely will win a game in the 7a playoffs only. Hoffman has four outstanding athletes. Speed.
Your username hits the spot with the cold weather blowing in!!!!
Calpreps has BB as a slight favorite, but it’s basically a toss up
[projection and percent chances to win: Bradley-Bourbonnais (Bradley, IL) 30 (57%) Lincoln-Way West (New Lenox, IL) 28 (43%)]
Fenwick over MC
MC plays only 2nd string. 😂 sorry couldn’t resist.

I go by Edgy rankings. He has LWW in his top 30 poll and BB is not. What about a beaten down Bolingbrook going on the road to take down the high flying Eagles of Sandburg?
This one is very on brand for you Feeto.
But I honestly don’t see it as an upset, or at least much of an upset.
I also agree with the dual qb situation. It’s not working. It worked last year when they had brown against MC and MC didn’t know how to play him.
Crusaders by 3 on the road
