Week #6 BIG 30 talk about the rankings
(closed)
(Preview)
Before last year (I'll go back and check) there have only been 2 schools that made it to the state finals in 5-8A that were not ranked after week #5, basically the week #6 rankings. Last year we had 3.
With only 5 teams from 5A in the mix, there's always a possibility that someone will slip by. Take a loo...

How bout the Central State 8?
(Preview)

Occassionally I get some free time during the season & I will check out to see what other web sites are doing.
I came across these rankings that are from a national web site that had a deal with the USA today. Nothing against any of the teams that are ranked, but even most of the Freshman B players at mos...

East St. Louis vs. Alton Prediction
(Preview)
It is the first big game to help decide the Southwestern conference crown and it will be a long time before we crown a champion in the SWC! Call me crazy, but I predict an Alton pull out the upset and win this game by the score 31-27. Also, I think Clemons will be the player of the g...

One of the things I've always talked about doing on the site was a Little 30 or Small 30 ranking, basicaly the best of the smaller 30 schools in the state. It's never been done because it's hard enough getting info on the bigger schools across the state, I couldn't image how hard it would be to get that on sm...

Some sleeper teams for this year?

I would give my vote to Plainfield South. The Cougars have been on the rise since they became a varsity program 5 years ago. After there first two years at 0-9 they have improved with 2-7 and 3-6 records. There program has a good coach in Mike Briscoe and solid numbers. They have a schedule that could allo...

Surprises in Week #2

Now taht every one has seen a good portion of scores from the past weekend, what are some of the biggest surprises of week #2?
Prospect falling to Fremd 17-15 is up there as probably the biggest for me. Morris bouncing back and taking Joliet Catholic down twice in a row now, may be a surprise, but mayb...

What was the biggest Surprise in Week #1?
(Preview)
What was the biggest surprise you seen in Week 1?
My vote would be Morris Lossing to Geneva 37-0. It's not that I can't believe they lost, just I can't beleive they lost by 37 and were shut out.

Do you think that your athletic director is trying to make sure your team get a good spot in the 2007 Draft? Does your team's schedule look more like a who's who of high school football than just a regular nine game season?

Below is a list of teams that could have...
