Well…. Most agree this is the 8A title game. And Loyola finally had to come Frankfort for a game. What does everyone think will happen? Can’t be a better semi game in the state than this game!
Loyola (Hollywood) vs LW East (Beast)
- Thread starter Illgold22
- Start date
Nicknaming schools that have existing names...👎🏾
Says the dude behind an online nickname that is itself a nickname of a guy with an existing name
I know dick saban IRL and that's his actual name
Will the faithful from Wilmette drive down to the slums of Frankfort? Will their GPS fail in transit as it is significantly further than the Marist RedHawks stadium where there was a slim turnout for the Loyola followers. Can the fan from Wilmette leave the air horn at home or will it continue to be a part of the broadcast annoying ritual? Those are the real questions for this game.
- 2023 Loyola Academy won 26-15
- 2022: Loyola Academy won 13-3
- 2021: Loyola Academy won 3-0
- 2018: Loyola Academy won 24-16
- 2017: Lincoln-Way East won 23-14
And the results playing in Frankfort are? Let’s pack the stadium folks of HS football. Just head south on LaGrange avenue until you see cows…then do a U-turn and head back north 1 mile to Lincoln-Way East.
This one feels like a “if they don’t get em now they won’t ever get em,” game for East. As much as Loyola fans won’t want to admit it, East is much better than this years Loyola team. What that means next weekend? Nothing. East should win
The term, house money, comes to mind.
I think it will be another great game that just about everyone thought would happen. I am sure this is the game that East wanted. The old saying if you want to be the best you got to play the best.
I am interested in hearing what MS has to say since they played both teams.
Go East.

Go East.
Don't see Loyola having a shot here, no one does half time adjustments like coach z
Loyola is also good at halftime adjustments. This will be a tough game unless East jumps to a quick lead.
To be fair, the last time LWE was unbeatable something happened in the semis against Loyola...
Yes. When he puts in the backups… that’s the magic. He’s absolute best at it.
Agreed PowerI66
This is a better EAST team than last year but Loyola will come ready. It’s the Semifinals anything can happen.
I believe the Loyola folks are waiting to head south to see a game only on November 30. Since there is no Wally’s in Frankfort they will wait to stop in Pontiac on the way to ISU. I would say the crowd on the visitors side will be less than 300 folks. The Griffins are just another irritant on the path.
Z can’t complain about zip codes this time.
This is not the normal LA team from years past. Offense is super bland. They should let Bliss call the plays. Anyway if the MS defense can stop them for a half I feel like Beast should be able to do it for the whole game. Score should be 42-14 Beast but I think it will be more like a two score game. Please end this reign of terror!

Can anyone give any specific Xs and Os adjustment(s) made by either team in the recent past? I read this phrase often used as a generality without any actual support.
It's, "Jonny - you need to fill this gap. Bobby, that was your gap - now you are gapless and allowed to roam free. Billy - you suck and Artie will be replacing you."
Depends on what is happening in the game. It may changing the defensive scheme to stop the run or pass. It may be offensive adjustments or play calls. If you watch the game you will notice adjustments made in the 2nd half. Every game is different and good coaches pickup on what’s working and what’s not.
What adjustments? All their games have been over by halftime. The only adjustments have been who else is going in and when.
MS & NC game were not over at halftime. I was at those games and nobody on the East side thought the game was over at halftime.
They haven’t won a game because of halftime adjustments…
Define” winning” after halftime adjustments😄
If you haven’t trailed this season at halftime but you increase the lead after the half is it defined as “winning”? Either way it is a good situation for any coach to be in.

The best coaches are constantly making small adjustments in between series. Always getting player feedback. Average coaches wait until halftime to make adjustments. Below average coaches, looking at you Shane Waldron, talk about making adjustments but never actually make them.
8A State championship next week in Frankfort, ( again no insult to the lower bracket ) and in the end the “state championship game gets played Thanksgiving weekend!, but somehow to me it is the semi-final game that has the 2 best 8A teams in it. I feel like LWE is like Indiana - all you can do is win the games you are scheduled to play - I will believe Indiana is real when they beat Ohio State - till then -well? LWE went out and got a QB - they are not the same team as last year and they will present a different challenge for LA with the new QB , they are at home and are seeking vengeance for the last three years were they are 0-3 vs Hollywood - I would say LWE is favored …. But as Mike Tyson said one time - everyone has a plan till you get punched in the face. LWE is gonna get punched in the face for the first time this year. The question is do they have a plan ?
I don’t think you want to be replaced by a guy named Artie.
