No. Why would it be?

 

[greatgig13]

No. Why would it be?

I just thought we already knew who the best team was.

Do you try to be a large penis or is just natural for you

LOL, OK but you’ll never see me come in here and say we have the best player on the best team in the state. I’m done being a male unit.

 

[Cross Bones]

I hate the "eye test" it doesn't really work.

[Southland Fan 2016]

Bishop Sycamore

 

[Funkychicken79]

Batavia

 

[big daddy looch]

Why do you guys tease @micahjones like this?

 

[1973chicago]

ESL

 

[McCaravan]

In person, offensively Br. Rice, defensively....I think every MC fan will answer this way too, St. Ignatius!

 

[Queen4]

At full strength Loyola.
JCA a close second.
On defense, Loyola possesses more size and speed.
I'd pick JCA by a field goal if they played each other without Maldonado.

 

[go_rice]

Loyola is the best team I’ve seen. Jordan Anderson the most unstoppable player.

 

[Bowie50]

East Side
LA
JCA
Warrens D and Rice’s O

 

[Gene K.]

I haven't seen anyone of note play this year. But, taking Micah Jones at his word, it has to be Warren at #1.
Others in contention: ESL, JCA, Loyola and ???????????

If Soucie's week nine predictions play out, there appears to be a 2nd round matchup of MC/Batavia.

At MC too! But all likely to change

 

[missingwalter]

Likely, yes. However with only one week to play, I'm betting it's a not a longshot.

 

[SiuCubFan8]

JCA

 

[BataviaDogs1]

Top half of 7A bracket is a doozy.

 

[McEvergreen]

East St. Louis by far. Who in IL can beat them?

I haven’t gotten a chance to check out other games this year so my view is quite narrow. That being said…

Neuqua has talent across the board but they have really bad turnovers and the penalties are a major concern. If they cut both down and play a complete game (which they haven’t yet) then they can beat anyone in the state. NV needs to show out in October. Period.

Oswego and Naper North are both really good. Oswego lost to Neuqua by 10 and Batavia by 8. They can play with anyone. North? If Gray is on then they can do a lot of damage. Not sure on their D.

pretty bold statement. We shall see.

 

[NapervilleBuck]

What’s bold? That they can beat anyone? I’d stand by that. But they can also go out in the first or second round. That’s been their modus operandi since 2012.

Didn't Modus Operandi play for Miami a few years back? Huge DT with a nasty temper.

Ironically, NN and Oswego is Soucie's first round matchup. Even to take it a step further, Oswego was only down 3 at NV with about 3 minutes left with NV facing a 3rd and 9 at about their own 25-30 when "Pops" kid scrambled for 65 yards to basically win the game.

Yep. I left that game with 8 minutes left with NV up 26-7 or something like that. It was a crazy game that showed the grit of that Oswego team. They never gave up.

Maybe Neuqua Valley?
