Sycamore 8-0
- Thread starter Wassup13
- Start date
If your 8-0 you better be otherwise your schedule was really weak. I believe they are good!
I saw them mid season and they were pretty good albeit against a weak opponent. I think this week game will be a good measuring stick to how they really are. If they take morris to the woodshed then I’ll be really impressed because I don’t think morris is as “bad” as the RB score would indicate.
To answer the original question I think they have a very good shot at playing in Champaign

Based on Catch—22’s latest geographical mapping for 5A, your ‘inevitable’ Sycamore vs. Sterling playoff game would actually be the 5A final.
Lol, they are both always in the North bracket as long as I remember, correct me if I’m wrong.though, I’m going by memory
Understood.
I know it’s not etched in stone, but ‘Catch’ is pretty spot on with the geographical lines he draws.
A finals match-up would be a good one!

Catch also doesn't project future games. But I have Both North, along with some really good teams who will have a say and a rematch.
When's the ACT ?
Don’t crap on Catch’s efforts. And I’ve been around long enough to know his ‘fun’ projections are not future predictions. And yes, history points to both being in the upper bracket.
And if you’re referring to a rematch involving anything remotely tying back Carmel Catholic, they’re not beating anyone significant in the playoffs.
At least IMO.
They have to figure out how to play a full game, execute cleanly AND finish.

All I know is past
Sterling -Sycamore games back when they were both playing in the NIB 12 were good ones, especially playoff games. I hope he’s right, might be good not to play them this year.

You’ve made your point on Morris in a few threads now. Thanks for your opinion
Really good game for sure.....need to see a bit more from Sycamore before I can come up with a better take...
Nope, looks like the quarters, my premonition may come true. but that’s If Sterling even gets to the quarters, one game at a time.
Yep - and good luck in the playoffs.
It looks like Sterling has a good path. Viator will compete and they are scrappy.
Carmel will have their hands full if they advance and host Sycamore. CCHS plays a combination of 17-18 J/S/F - they are VERY young and it shows. A year away IMO.

The one thing with Sycamore is I don't think they are a.good team if they have to play from behind.
I don’t think they’ve ever had to play from behind, lol Most Sycamore teams have good strong lines and good defense and I’m guessing this years team is the same. I’m guessing their a lot like Moline in our conference but again have not seen them play yet.
Sterling will have their hands more than full with Viator so I advise we pump the brakes on quarterfinal talk.
That was before the playoff brackets were even drawn.
Double-wing is actually a formation.
Sycamore runs a Wing-T scheme.
They run it as double-wing formation and then ‘break-the-bone’ (designed in the 50’s) by placing a wing on the edge and keeping the fullback and second running back in the original wishbone formation.
And as mentioned, they go multiple with a spread formation. They like to run a lot of empty backfield.

Whatever offense they run, they're damn good. I know anything can happen on any given weekend and below is all for fun and for entertainment purposes only, but in the upper bracket Naz is the only contender that would come within 3 scores of Sycamore.
