Rocket

Riley over Bremen- wildcats run defense is legit, QB a little inaccurate but good enough to take care of business. St Joe over CMA- don’t know much about CMA but the Indians are a decent football team. Elkhart over Marian- think the lions win this one fairly easy. Jimtown over Adams- the Jimmies JV will probably get plenty of reps in the 2nd half. Penn over NP- the Cougars would have to play flawless to have a chance. Penn D shuts em down in a low scoring game. TV over Glenn- I’ve heard a lot of people high on TV this year and think they’re to much for Glenn to handle.

I think it’s time to break the conference up and everyone find a new home.

Congrats to Clay on their first victory in 34 games.

If the ball goes off a receiving players hands and in the end zone on a kickoff is it still a touchback?

Definitely one of the smallest lines NP has had in a long time. The strength coach does an excellent job at the school not only with the football team but all sports. The line does a great job of pulling, trapping and getting to their assignments. I think the only way Riley has a chance in this game is if they come out and do what St Joe did to the cougars with the short to mid range passes. I’m probably in the minority here but I look for the cougars to win this game fairly comfortably.

Poor Clay. Lost to the Jimmies JV today.

TV over Jimtown- I’ve heard some good things about Valley this year and think they’ll be way to much for the Jimmies. Glenn over Bremen- Barron seems to have this group heading in the right direction. NP over Adams- should be a relatively easy game for the cougars who’ve yet to play their best ball. Penn over Marian- not much to say. Penn By whatever they choose. Elkhart over St Joe- the Indians are much improved over the last few years but I think the Lions squeak this one out. Riley over Washington- I think the best thing the wildcats can do is rest the starters as much as possible to come in next week healthy against NP

Bremen vs Triton- don’t know much about either team but I’ll take the lions by 6 Elkhart vs Massillon Washington- I haven’t been impressed with the lions the past couple of years. Penn vs Morton- the kingsmen bounce back and win by 28+ Glenn vs Jimtown- Jimmies take care of business by 17 Marian vs New Prairie- the Cougars will continue to improve each week and should have no problems in this one. Np by 21 Riley vs Clay- Riley’s JV should get some good field time. 35+ St Joe vs Adams- I haven’t heard much about the Indians yet but they seem to be improving over the last few years. St Joe by 14 Washington vs Calumet- by 35+

Np wins huge. I can think the week of struggle’s are oover

BG vs Clay- Colonials woes continue. Bremen vs Washington- something tells me the panthers squeak this one out. CMA vs Marian- I have a feeling the Knights right the ship this week and come away with a W. Elkhart vs Northridge- the lions have a ton of work to do to be considered a 6a power like a lot of people are saying. Raiders win this one easy. Jimtown vs Concord- I can see this one going either way. I’ll take the Jimmies in a close one. Riley vs Glenn- Riley airs it out and takes care of the falcons. Mishawaka vs Penn- Glad to see this game back on the schedule. Kingsmen Take care of business rather easily. St Joe vs South side- Maybe the Indians? NP vs Goshen- I think last week was a big eye opener for the Cougars. NP needs to stick with what they do best and run the ball. The combination of Kmiecik and Sinka has the potential to be lethal if they choose to utilize it. The passing game is there but Kmiecik needs to go through his progressions and not always go for the home run. That said cougars take care of business.

My bad, nothing but respect for the 46 crew

My mistake they went down last year

Forgot about New Pal going back to 4A

Who’s everyone like this year?. A lot of of the same faces or are there going to be some unlikely teams?

Laporte is not in 4A nor did they earn any points in 5A

This game has the potential to be done super fast as both teams like to run the ball. NP has been playing out of their minds the last 5 weeks and haven’t had to play the starters for a full game all tournament. This game could come down to who is willing to take a chance throwing down field. Both defenses seem to be stingy on giving up points with offenses that are potent. Looks to be a nice and cold night Friday and should be a fun atmosphere. I’ll take the Cougars by 8

Does Northridge have a balanced attack or do they tend to favor one over the other?

Snider vs Mishawaka- Gotta think Snider takes care of business in this one. Great season by Mishawaka but believe snider is the better team. Snider by 14. Northridge at New Prairie- northridge seems to be a team their best football in the playoffs recently. NP has been absolutely unstoppable the last 4 weeks. The loss last year to the raiders has not sat well with the Cougars. NP by 17 dont know much if anything about the the other games but I’ll take west Lafayette and North Judson

Run, run and run again

Andrean @ Bremen- unfortunately I think the lions will have way more than they can handle in this one. Andrean by 28 Knox @ Jimtown- the Jimmies have had a great season and Knox has seemed to buy into Radtke’s philosophy. I hate picking against the NIC but I think Knox takes this one by 7 New Prairie@ Hobart- NP losing to Penn has turned out to be a blessing. Since that game the Cougars have been on a terror and have imposed their will on others. Hobart is a solid team with a very good Running back and QB. I believe NP comes out and continues to step on the gas and tick this one by 14

NP with another impressive win 42-6. Something I never thought I’d say NP had 0 rushing touchdowns tonight, 5 passing and 1 KO return.

Andrean has not played Norwell. The 59ers get their QB back this week that they lost early in the season.

So I’m guessing the rumor I heard about NorthWood is true
