Just some games that look interesting and games I'll end up picking to go to and have in the pick em contest etc.
BOLD indicates games I'm considering covering (but I'm still very open and maybe even leave it to a fans vote)
Springfield at Glenwood- interesting Week 1 measuring stick game in the CS8
Harlem at Hononegah- Huge Week 1 battle in the NIC10
Normal Community at Bloomington- long time rivals here.
Bartlett at Glenbard South- Great opener for both Upstate 8 teams
Hersey at LW West- Repeat former playoff foes in this one
Bolingbrook at Minooka- Very interesting game against two strong Joliet area 8A teams.
Brother Rice at Hillcrest
MC at St. Rita- The All Time Epic Battle of the Pizza Delivery guys
Morgan Park at Fenwick
Simeon at Joliet Catholic- Have these two ever played against each other?
Crete Monee at LW East- previous games have been close than you'd think
East St Louis at Christian Brothers- Top St Louis area showdown
Edwardsville at Desmet- Also another top St Louis area clash
ICCP at Montini- Great and really interesting game here.
Warren Township at Barrington- This has turned into a really strong game over the past few seasons.
Bishop McNamara at Marmion- The Coach Zinanni farewell tour begins
Lake Forest at St. Francis- Is it just me or is this arguably the most interesting Week 1 matchup?
Phillips at Batavia
Kaneland at Andrew
Morris at Coal City- Truly it's the Hatfields against the McCoys here.
Carmel at Libertyville- Take whatever you want...just make sure Franks for the Memories remains in tact.
Naperville Central at Hinsdale Central- No question one of the top non con games here.
Richards at Nazareth Academy
Oswego at Neuqua Valley Has the potential to develop into a major rivalry game if this one is allowed to stay in the schedule
Oswego East at Waubonsie Valley
Shepard at Kankakee
Sycamore vs DeKalb at NIU- They play this game every year at NIU for a reason. Huge crowd and a big time rivalry.
Willowbrook at Providence
