Lemont vs estl

Lemont never travelled to ESL. The past 2 years ESL has had to travel to Lemont in the semis and qtrs despite being the higher seed. Im not sure what Lemont could be complaining about.
Ive also said this before, but Lemont shouldnt be allowed to host playoff games given their visitor bleacher situation.
Idk what you consider close but the Lemont game last year ended up being a one score game. Lemont was up 14 at one point. I def dont think they will win every game by 30+
It's some good football being played in 6a this I don't see a cakewalk for anyone.
ESL will beat Lemont. Kankakee and Washington can both both go toe to toe with this years Flyers ✈️ and that's just looking at the South bracket.
Lemont has proven that they won’t just lay down against ESL the way that some intimidated teams do. That won’t change the outcome though as they will be completely outgunned. No disrespect to Leeeemont, but this one will be a running clock.
The only chance one of the games is not a running clock is if ESTL is on the road and get a crew that interprets holds tightly.
I wonder why they can't. None of their conference teams are in 7a this season.
Probably difficult to know since schools like Edwardsville and O’Fallon are on the border of 7a and 8a and could fall into either.
Well that would be why they can't. Appreciate it. Just stinks would like them to get to a place where they are actually challenged....
There are 7a teams in the conf, and you cant predict which ones will make the playoffs. You have to petition up before the season starts.
I'd be ashamed if I played in a conference that manipulates opponents to make it easier for someone to win. If you can't beat a 5A team, do you deserve a 7A trophy?
I disagree with that.... Its. E-ville, O'Fallon, and Bellville East every year. I can see it being an issue if one of those drops to 7a but its pretty easy to predict who is going to MAKE the playoffs in that conference.
Every time I see the name Lemont I think about Sanford and Son.
Every time I see or hear Lemont I think of the Nagel brothers!
That not true at all. Belleville east had been really bad for a while before last year. They hadnt been to the playoff since 2015. And west had some really good teams even beating ESL a few years in the reg season. Both Alton and Granite City made the playoffs before the covid year.
I disagree with the conference rule. On paper it makes some sense as far as trying to help conference members go far into the playoffs without having to eliminate each other, but I think that any school that wants to move up should be allowed to. There have also been other unofficial reasons rumored to have supposedly played a role in the decision making behind that rule, but even then I still disagree with it.
With All That Being Said I Hope And Pray We (East Side) Are Preparing For Lemont Like It’s A ReMatch With Altascota(Texas). We Don’t Need To Look Past Any Team In The 6A Bracket.
