A good poll before the season start. Not voting on the best team, but who is most likely to go into playoffs 9-0?

Most likely to go 9-0 in regular season?
- Thread starter King MJ
- Start date
If you believe in Massey Ratings, here’s their top five rankings for most likely to go 9-0
1. Camp point central
2. South Elgin
3. Byron
4. Princeton
5. Reed Custer

No chance for Glenbard West. Marist and Desmet to start and then a strong WSS conference.
I would bet my house and 401k that Reed-Custer doesn’t go 9-0
I voted South Elgin.
Personally, I think SE, LWE, Lemont and GW all go undefeated.
However, GW has by far the toughest schedule so that is least likely.
I see 2 games on LWE (Bat, Bolingbrook) and Lemont's (Geneva, Libertville) that should at least be competitive.
I don't see a competitive game on SE's schedule. However, this is also why I see SE losing in first round of playoffs if they get a 5-4 team from a top conference (Catholic league, DuKane)

In the ICE thread that I started and a lot of people commented on I have seen anywhere from 6-3 to 3-6. I think a loss to Wilmington and Johnsburg are locks. After that it just depends on how the middle of the pack shakes out. I was initially high on them this year, but I think I was just giving benefit of the doubt. I'll say they end up 5-4.
What is your prediction for the Vomits, er Comets?
No way Johnsburg is a lock. I have the Comets going into the Wilmington game undefeated and then losing a physical match up. I'm predicting they will be so banged up, they lose to CC the next week. After that, they run the table and finish 7-2.
I’d be very surprised if R-C went 7-2. I had them at 5-4, but then I heard the kid that was the heir apparent at QB suffered an injury and will miss most, if not all, of the season. Still think they will be generally competitive though.
Wow. Hadn't heard that. If it's who I think it is, RC is in trouble. The incoming freshman is really good, but I doubt they bring him up to the Varsity unless absolutely necessary. As in, if he's the only QB left in the program.
Lemont. Only 2 of their 9 opponents this year were above .500 by the end of last season. Historically since 2006 annually, in 6 league games and 1 cross-over vs Lemont, teams exist that have never beaten them and with the others, you could count each of their victories easily using one hand.
Lemont is in a horrible conference, but they always translate well into the playoffs. Respect.
Lemont has been very competitive with ESL recently. Still kinda boggles my mind that we (Wilmington) used to play Lemont every year.
