North Judson @ LaVille- Young hosses up front clear enough room for their athletes to make plays. Jays 35-7 Boone Grove @ South Central- The young teams best chance at a win for the year. SCUM 27-20 Taylor @ North Miami- NM learning but Taylor doesn't look to have much. Warriors 21-0 West Central @ Culver- WC rebounds after the week 1 rivalry loss. 34-14 Triton @ Bremen- Bremen wins 28-7 Winamac @ Frontier- Winamac starts off 2-0 for the first time since 2021. Warriors 30-20 North White @ Caston.- Comets are burnin hot. Looking for 2-0 for the first time since 2009. Comets 56-0 Pioneer @ Knox- Pioneer gets knox after a rough week of film and practice for the Redskins. Knox is big and can cause some problems but not many athletes. Panthers 21-12

Week 2 is here. North Judson @ LaVille Boone Grove @ South Central Taylor @ North Miami West Central @ Culver Triton @ Bremen Winamac @ Frontier North White @ Caston Pioneer @ Knox

Judson had a running clock in the 3rd.

Caston at Whitko, Caston Logansport at Peru, Berries Maconaquah at Sheridan, Blackhawks Northfield at North Miami-Warriors Northwestern at Manchester Tigers Pioneer at Cass- Panthers Southwood at Rochester- Zebras

Knox @ North Judson- Jays catch a few breaks with Knox figuring out their offensive identity post their Mr Football era. 28-14 South Central @ Wheeler- Wheeler seems to be getting close to their late 2000s era of decent football teams. 35-7 LaVille @Triton- LaVille with a hard hitting win in week 1. 21-0 Central Noble @ Culver- Cavs pull out the win. 22-20 Caston @ Whitko- Is this the year Caston makes a run at the top 3? Early blowout could tell us here. 35-14 West Central @ Winamac- Only bc they are returning their coach. 20-12 Northfield @ North Miami- Warriors won't be as tough but still handle Northfield 26-6 Pioneer @ Lewis Cass- Pioneer starting a freshmen at qb? Lot of replacements from last year but Panthers find their groove in second half and pull away. 28-13

It's finally football season. Will Pioneer run away with the league again or will they have challengers? Judson has the athletes to be very good this year but the biggest question on them is if they have the hosses up front. Winamac has another new coach, could he change the culture? Is this the year Triton finally gets over the hump in football? Knox @ North Judson South Central @ Wheeler LaVille @Triton Central Noble @ Culver Caston @ Whitko West Central @ Winamac Northfield @ North Miami Pioneer @ Lewis Cass

Would love to see the old NJSP/RCHS rivalry restored.

You think? I’d flip flop it. both very tough teams though. interesting enough, both teams had a big let down last year in playoffs. Did those losses fuel this 2025 run?

It looked like mostly the speed and quickness of the d line. They did have a lot of mental mistakes like false starts but that’ll happen when you feel overwhelmed.

Yes and he never stood a chance. D line consistently dominated and was often in the backfield before he got to the line. Even King Henry isn’t doing much then.

Guess I'd be a terrible weatherman because I didn't see that. Does Luers throw the ball at all?

Weather looks like it's going to be fairly nice!

Did we say that they wouldn't have seen a team like Pioneer? What a wild out of the blue comparison to a team from week 1. Let's hope Pioneer isn't half the team that Marion Local is because that would result in a 2-3 score win like i predicted. I want it to be a close game as I like good football.

They'll put pressure on them. I think Pioneer wins this game by 2-3 scores. SA definitely has a really good passing attack. QB can sling it better than any 1A QB i've seen in a while.

Pioneer controls the game if everyone is healthy. South Putnam rolls Milan. Ultimately I think SP wins it all this year.

Yeah, their defense kept them in a lot of games this year. Offensive timing and turnovers were the achilles heal for the jays in their games against decent squads. That often happens when you have a fairly young team like they did. I give this team a lot of credit for continuing to fight all season long. They had a huge blow week 1 when they lost their best player and D1 commit. Lambert will have them locked in this offseason and look for the Jays to be an extremely tough out the next 2 years.

Mostly because the majority people in the north who have been following 1A expected Pioneer to be the team playing at Semi state instead of NJ or LaVille. LaVille will be a tough out though.

Superior offense. They've been my 1A North pick since week 2 when they gave Knox their toughest game of the year. (ok...maybe one of the toughest) LaVille is battle tested and one of the hottest 1A teams but Pioneer is a well oiled machine. I didn't realize it was at LaVille so that'll make it closer but I still expect Pioneer to win this game.

I think both knox and Pioneer win by a few scores.

Agree with you. SP wins this game easily and don't think the score will be close.

I think he breaks it this week. The only concern for this game is how Knox's defense fairs against Griffith's offense. I think they get the job done but could be a high scoring affair!

Laville at North judson- Glad this game is at NJ, weird things tend to happen when played at LaVille. Judson better bring their A game because LaVille may be one of the hottest teams in 1A right now. Still think the jays win. 24-14 Frontier at Pioneer- #2 vs #3. Could be a big game but i think Pioneer wins this by 3ish scores. It's impressive what Coach Barron has done there at Frontier but tthey don't have teams like Pioneer in the MWC. 49-21 Southwood at North Miami- NM should win this one. Southwood could make it a game for a bit but NM pulls away shortly after half. 28-7 Triton at Fremont- Fremont has lost to anyone wiht a decent record so their record is a little misleading. As long as the Trojans don't spend too much on next weeks prep they should win easily. 31-7

It seems like the majority of teams have adopted these from what I have witnessed. Once tournament time comes around they often switch back to old school.

Fairly certain he tore his ACL and possibly a few things but I could be wrong.

No sir. LaVille coming in playing some good ball after being battle tested in a 3a conference all season long. Judson beat them by 1 score in week 2 but it's been a long time since then. I have all the faith in the world in Lambert to have the boys prepared and ready to play but kids are kids... Maybe the Pioneer butt kicking last week will be a good reminder they have to come out ready to play from the jump.
