Week 8 in the WSC has 1 division with a known champion (Congratulations to York on securing at least a share of the WSS title), while the other will likely come down to Week 9, as both DGS and Willowbrook sit at 4-3. With this weeks games, and looking forward to Wk9, a DGS win will give them at least a share of the WSG title.

Lyons at Glenbard West is definitely the marquee game this week. Both sitting at 6-1, therefore will be in the playoffs - yet both still have an outside shot at a shared WSS title. Whoever wins this week will need York to slip this week or next in order to grab a share.

DGN is likely in the 7A playoffs with 5 wins, but a win this week over OPRF will ensure their postseason participation. Conversely, OPRF is still fighting for a chance. With York on the horizon in Wk 9, OPRFs best shot at getting to 5 wins is this week.

And then there is Hinsdale Central... sitting at 3-4, HC needs to win both Wk 8 and 9 to get in. IF they can avoid injuries this week (which they have been able to do since week 2), they may be able to bring GW a game with everything on the line.

Wk7 had a few changes in the overall standings - Panthers able to make a move into a tie for 1st. With 2 weeks left in the regular season, nobody has ran away with the game.

I can't accept your Leyden pick, as they played and won last night 35-28. All other picks are recorded.
 
Fellow Prognosticators - please don't poke the bear. It's Edgy's board, and he sets the rules. Let's keep this weekly thread to picking the games and keeping updated on team on field performance. For hotter takes - of which I personally like knowing some behind the scenes information - please start a new thread that can get flushed with no adjacent consequences or start a private message.
 
Is he not coaching against LT on Saturday?
The reply to my question was, basically, that Coach will have the afternoon to himself. I have no way of knowing if that is true.

Edgy, sorry if my defense of him was out of bounds. He's a very good man and he deserved someone pushing back on a personal attack. Let's move on!

What is the big secret here? Either he is or isn't. Years ago when the Pontiac coach got suspended years ago this board lit up.

I don’t think anyone here knows. The deleted comments had nothing to do with his status for this game.
 
What a miserable week #7 was.

See I missed Thursday 🤷‍♂️

A pretty good Wk 8, playing out pretty much as chalk as one could think it would. The board had an 82.8% correct selection rate this week, with 3 perfect selections (DGS, HS, York). The most split selection this week was GW over LT, at 57.14% correct. The high percentage moves the board season total to 79.56% - up 4/10ths of a point from Week 7.

2 participants had perfect 7-0 slips - @MS4EVER and @Alexander32. The selector with the lowest score this week was @Nevada Dude at 4-3. Unfortunately for some, fortunate for others, 4 participants did not enter their selections prior to Thursday night's Leyden/AT game, which affected the overall standings. Curiously, @LakeCtyNewt skips another Proviso East game (I'm sure there is a good reason). This is why these overall score totals are different than others. For the record - I think the best way to rank order is by total wins, then total loses. So a 53-10 player will rank higher than a 53-9 player, as the higher ranked has made more total game selections.

Be aware - there are 2 games being played on Thursday in Week 9, and 2 games being played on Saturday.
On to Week 9....
