Braidwood @ Sandwich........I usually hate on RC but they have been looking tougher and tougher as the year goes on. I think Sandwich was nothing but early season hype......irrelevant game in the grand scheme of things but still a huge one in terms of morale.....RC in a close battle
Herscher @ Manteno.......Herscher has to have this one and should fairly easily.....Herscher by 10 or more
Peotone @ Streator.......The 'tone needs this one too and much like Sandwich, Streator just didn't live up to the hype.....Peotone by at least 14
Wilmington @ Plano.......This is probably the most important game of the week. Huge playoff implications are on the line and it should be a battle. Plano is hot, hot, hot right now and Wilmo has been really up and down, but I never pick against Wilmo. A good old fashioned all purple brawl......Wilmo by 3
Lisle @ Coal City.......Game of the week.......Overall I8 championship on the line (if there is such a thing). Playoff seeding is also a big one in this game. If it were on turf I would possibly be willing to sway my vote but I think the Large prevails here.....CC by 6
What a fun and crazy year this has been. There have been many surprises and It is only going to be shaken up more next year when they combine back into one conference (which is how it should be). I am also excited to see who the teams schedule for their non-con games the first two weeks of the season. Who will seek out better competition and who will be fishing for wins?
After Saturday we can see who has a chance to make noise in the playoffs!
**As I typed that last line I realize I may be wrong about Peotone needing a win.....They probably won't be in with 5 wins right? Looks like their playoff points are a little low?**
