While I am a homer and with that being said I do feel Marist will win, but there is no way it will be by 30. The deficit in this game will be single digits.
 
I'll take JCA +17.
Me too. With no offense at all to SR, I’m sure it’s going to be a great game, I just think JC is ready to roll again, as long as they can put pressure on QB and defend the pass
 

Hope vs MC

DLS @ NW

Hyde Park @ MCHS

Even though SF dropped out of the Green I am still going to predict on the conference and Montini.

MC over Hope
Marmion over DePaul
Fenwick over Kenwood
DLS wins a close one over NW
Montini wins easy

Per the Beastie Boys:

Woke up in the morning its our first game day
Chicago Hope Academy? That's who we play?
Lenti is in Burbank, he found new work
He was thrown out of MC by a no good jerk

Were gonna fight,day and night, then party

Montini has our schedule, they had no say
Blue hypocrites think that's okay
Now were off the radar, maybe off the screen
Were the new bosses of the CCL Green

Were gonna fight, day and night, then party


Final: MC 49 CHA 0

Word from Crawford Ave is that Marist spread has narrowed to 6.5.
 
Great variety of games this weekend.

MC 42 Hope 7 This year marks the 105th Anniversary of Notre Dame stunning Army with the forward pass.
MA 21 TECH 7 The Cadets have Tech's former AD.
Evergreen Park 24 Leo 18 Imagine if McCallister landed at EP.
SI 9 Gavit of Hammond 6
Elmwood Park 21 SJ 19
SL 18 Benet 14
The new guy should really tighten up the Vikes.
DLS 24 NW 21 Scotty Baum coached both of these teams.
F 42 Kenwood 35 Friars looking excited for the year.
Marist 35 BR 14 Coming off 9-0 and 2-7 seasons, but a close game with eachother. Hunch: 'Skins easy.
SR 30 JC 6 All of Rita's points coming from Mottl. He should hit a free kick this year.
MCHS 42 Hyde Park 0 Broncs have a new coach. Wonder if he has any success.
PC 10 Lockport 7
LA 3 Rockford 2
Rams are no pushover. In the playoffs last year, they narrowly lost to West Ottawa, who narrowly lost to Clarkston, who won the state championship 3-2 over West Bloomfield. Rams were twelve points away from a state championship. Ramblers were 9.
 
Here goes nothing.....

MC over Hope 45-14 - New look Caravan trying new look O first time in a real game. Expect some hiccups. Hope will contend but not enough guns against a team who wants to impress the new coach

Marmion over DePaul 35-17 - Cadets will be disciplined and control both sides of scrimmage. Ghosts of Gordon Tech keep DePaul motivated

Leo over Evergreen Park 21-20 - no clue what expect here other than Leo wins with speed. Is EP even a shadow of recent success?

St Ig over Gavit 35-21 - no very little about Gavit but do know St Ig can bring it and is well coached and disciplined.

Benet over StL 27-17 - Benet is that ESCC sleeper; StL will be motivated to impress new mentor papa Frank but Vikings lost a lot to graduation and experience is the difference in this one.

DeLaSalle over Niles West 42-27 - Meteors want to send message early. NW has talent and depth but speed of DLS wins this one.

Fenwick over Kenwood 35-20 - Friars well coached and minus studs from last couple of seasons but Kenwood is no match.

Marist over BR 34-31 - by far one of the better match ups of opening week; rematch will be nothing but awesome; Marist will get the nudge due to slightly more depth and talent; Crusaders looking to quiet the crictics and save their coaches job need to slow down Marist offense to win.

St Rita over JCA 28-21 - Mustangs O vs Hilltoppers D will decide this game; JCA will score but need to keep SR O off the field; the speed of these two teams is scary; this could be a 49-42 easily

Montini over Hyde Park - why give a score since this will be a running clock; who scheduled this game BTW?

Provi over Lockport 42-21 - you will see very little defense in this game; PC still has O weapons even without Gavin; PC D is a huge question mark

LA over Rockford MI 24-14 - Ramblers historically come out a little slow until they put the afterburners on around week 4
