a 2011 classic 

a 2015 Classic

I am banking on this being another good one! Leo has the better players but I never count out the Saints

Was that covid year (2020) when they waxed Snider by 30? Otherwise you have to go back to 2013 or 2011. Those were North's three victories over Snider going back to the early 90's. Snider's punished this program since the retirement of Dale Doerffler. 

2011

This was the game in 2011

It would not be the first time North and Snider got chippy

Carroll vs Northrop - The same old question heard round the Summit City, why is there more talent in Northrop’s hallways than on the football field? Carroll 49-14

Luers vs Concordia - Not that the Cadets showed me any reason against Snider, but I like them to keep this one closer than expected. Luers 31-21

Wayne vs North Side - The gauntlet is over for North (Dwenger, Snider, Carroll) to open the season, maybe a little letdown this week. North Side 42-21

Dwenger vs Homestead - On paper, the most competitive game of the week, I get the feeling that Sparty may run away with this one. Homestead 38-20

Snider vs South Side - The final score will be whatever the Panthers coaches want it to be. Soapbox here, this game is the exact reason why I am glad that starting next year, SAC teams start playing 2 out of conference games to start the year. I honestly can’t remember the last time Snider lost to South Side, maybe the 1970’s. Snider 49-0

2009- The last time South won

Legends

Generals 

Chargers 

Bruins 

Spartans 

Per Bob Shank, Northrop Ad

"Interviews will being the week of 31st, Hoping to name a coach the the first week of June, with a name to the board June 13th." 

This is very fast for FWCS who is known for taking things slow. Glad to see they are moving this along.

Northrop vs Leo – Separated by 15 minutes and never met on the gridiron. This would be 5a vs 4a, but Leo is the better program. Northrop isn’t bad, they just play in a good conference. I think this could become a good rivalry.

Lawrence North is playing North side in 2023 week 2

Fascinating that no Duneland/SAC games were scheduled. Maybe Duneland has their games scheduled a few years out?

Chesterton and Northrop are working on a deal from what I have heard....but it may have to wait for  2024. Rumor is that Northrop may play Wayne as Nonconference game in week 2 for 2023 then play the Chesterton the following year but Chesterton is trying to get out of a contract they have with a school from Illinois.

That was what Northrop's Ad said in conversation  

*Per Source

North may be picking up their Mishawaka contract...

Cavemen currently need a week 2 game for 2022 but that may be a place holder for a long term with North 

The legends (at the time Redskins) played the cavemen from 2011-2014 

Meet in the middle series in Lucas Oil 5 games week one 5 games week 2 ....SIAC vs SAC?

How about an NE8 vs SAC games?

I'm just speculating here. But I'm guessing the third crossover game was stipulated by the coach who wasn't on board from the beginning. Could that have been Luers? Again, just speculating. 

North

Would love to some SAC vs NLC match ups

Does Coach Johnson teach at Northside? I only ask because in the video he mentioned the relationship with the kids and whatnot and I agree completely that a school like North Side would benefit greatly from their HC walking the halls of the school.

Ben Johnson runs his own Credit recovery business. 

SAC will be changing its schedule after reclass, with the idea being to keep teams in same class playing later in the year.

Anyone know how tickets are being handled this week?  Carroll/Dwenger could sell out if allowed to.  I'd like to see any of the games except the Luers game.  

Still in phase 2 

Would not be shocked if This week goes chalk.....and also would not be surprised if we get some major upsets. What a great year to be a SAC fan! 

Carroll at Northrop.......Chargers hopefully have learned from 2018 and don't crap the bed vs Bruins.....Chargers by 18

Dwenger at Homestead.................I want to pick Homestead, I think its close but......BD by 3

Luers at Concordia...................Cadets by closer than people think......CLHS by 10

Snider at South Side....................Snider is good.......Snider by 30+

Wayne at North Side..................I am going with an upset special here, something about these Generals I like. IF they can hold the ball and limit the time North is on offense I think they can do it.......Wayne by 1 

Panthers......I think this is the week they figure it out 

Chargers.......Bet the over, lots of points 

Bruins.....Wayne keeps it close. Long drives from the Bruins make it low scoring. 

Saints.......No let down in the saints. 

Spartans......will get better on offense in this game.

BD by 7-------- Its going to be tight,  but I think BD has just enough to slow down number 2....

Wayne by 2.........Wayne is better than people think. 

Carroll by 13..............I wanted to pick Snider but I think they need more time to improve. They will get better but I don't think it will be enough

Northrop by 18...............Lots of distractions this week for the Bruins, how will they manage it? IMO Just give it to 34 and they will be just fine. 

Homestead by 10......Spartans rebound. 

Lots of good match ups going to be a great year in the SAC! 

This may be the most balanced the SAC has been in sometime.  

Fort Wayne South, Wayne and Northrop are doing 3 Team scrimmage at Northrop with no fans. 

I have always loved North Side, in Fort Wayne as well. Its got such a great old school setting . Right in the middle of the neighborhood.  

Very bias , but Spuller Stadium is a great place for football . Even better with the new turf!

FW Northrop won a state basketball title in its first year of existence in 1974.  What's your point?

False, Northrop opened in the 71-72 school year.
