WARREN 31, PALATINE 24 —- FINAL

[kpjasion]

Sad result. Not going to blame it on backup QB, but maybe it was a factor. But if Palatine was for real, they should have won this game.

Well, at full strength they beat 4 teams that won tonight and lost to another one that won tonight by 1 pt.

Not blaming the QB either, MS4EVER can probably point out how many starting QBs they've had go down and still win. I feel terrible for him, he was lights out as a freshman and sophomore, but when you don't play the position for two years and then get thrown in it's hard to be sharp. Lots of big players played their last game tonight, but alot of impact players(including the injured QB) return next year. Hope springs eternal - it will be interesting to see Santiago vs Johnny Football next year.

Starting qb…one of the two most important positions in sports (hockey goalie).
May not be 100 pct. Right on all this but it’s a list on my old old mind from this prep season.
1) Mt Carmel had a surprise lost when it’s starting qb was out.
2) Loyola had a surprising loss when it’s starting qb was out.
3) same for Downers Grove
4) East St. Louis scuffled in a league games when it’s starting qb was out.
5) palatine lost on playoffs with its starting qb out.
6) Maine South lost game this season with its starting qb out.

Enjoyed watching game on internet especially play of Warren RB and Palstine WR No. 18.
Palatine students did well enough with coverage with one bad gaffe.
The announcer praised Palatine kid that is running in ihsa sectional on Saturday. Nice. But next sentence I believe he said nobody cares because it’s cross country. Not nice if I heard correctly.
