Bit late this week with the post. Busy week of school along with my middle school team having 2 games instead of 1 @.@.
WB6 Week 6
Geneseo over Sterling: Sterling has won the last 8 meetings of this rivalry, but with how both teams have looked this year, I think Geneseo will roll that counter back to zero. I know it’s a rivalry game and you throw everything out the window, but Geneseo has been a team on a mission, and Sterling looked meh against Princeton last week. Leafs celebrate a three score homecoming victory.
Quincy over Galesburg: Another game where Quincy puts up lots of yards and lots of points and gets the starters out as soon as they can. Im sorry Galesburg fans, but the string of being thumped in games continues.
United Township over Rock Island: I think this should be a pretty good game. Rock Island has played tough defense, but struggles to move the ball. UT has been decent on both sides of the ball. I think the key in this one will be UT QB Mathew Kelly. He stays upright and has time to work his magic, UT wins this one.
Moline receives a forfeit win over Alleman.
TRAC Week 6
Princeton over Kewanee: Big time battle here! Unbeaten Boilermakers and one loss Tigers. While this should be a heck of a game, Princeton has played a harder schedule and is at home, so im giving the nod to them. Would be huge for Kewanee going forward if they can pull the upset and prove me wrong.
Morrison over Sherrard: Despite the records, I think this game will be a close fought contest. Sherrard is a pretty solid under .500 team. Sadly their super tough schedule continues against an undefeated Morrison squad who will start to pull away in the 4th.
Newman over Bureau Valley: Two very tough teams looking to make that push to the postseason. Newman has been on fire as of late and has arguably one of the best defenses in the area. This will be a close, low scoring game where Newman’s defense gets a score to power the Comets to a win and playoff eligibility.
Hall over Illinois Valley Central: Neither team has proved good this season, but Hall has been able to get some wins. Red Devils claim their third win of the season.
Mendota over Riverdale: The Battle of teams seeking their first win of the season. It will be hard fought, it will be ugly, it might even have something weird happen, but Mendota gets win number 1 of the season.
Rockridge over Monmouth-Roseville: Rockridge is playing at near top of the conference level of football, having rattled off 4 straight convincing wins against some decent competition. MR met the top of the conference last week in Morrison and it wasn’t pretty. The Rockets get the win but the Titans keep it close as they are showing to be a better road team than home team.
Orion over Erie-Prophetstown: Orion is reeling from 3 straight losses but gets a good chance to right the ship this week against an 0-5 EP team who has yet to find much success on either side of the ball. Orion wins this one comfortably.
