Boeke from Reitz has now picked up an offer from Colgate.

Boeke has received offers from both Illinois State and Indiana State.

I don’t know. I do see it like this though: Reitz 9-0 Castle 7-2 Lincoln 7-2 Memorial 6-3 Jasper 5-4 North 4-5 MD 3-6 (shocker) Harrison 3-6 Bosse 1-8 Central 0-9 I know, shocker on MD, but watching their up and comers, they will have to rely heavily on sophomores this year. We all know that is a pretty bad recipe in this conference. But that would make them a quick riser next year.

There was in the south a few years ago now. The Big 8 disbanded with Jasper and Vincennes Lincoln joining the SIAC, and the rest of the Big 8 schools joining the PAC. But the movement we are seeing in the Indy and farther north area is something we aren’t too familiar with down here.

Harlem Summers received an offer from Murray State.

This is what makes Reitz, MD, and Memorial unique. A lot of the same names go through those doors. People I went to school with over 30 years ago have kids in school there now. There isn’t that “flavor of the week” vibe

I have said for years that when North has great skill players, the line is always lacking, and when their line is great, they seem to be short the skill players. I see it that way again this year, as they lost most of their offensive production from last year if memory serves me correctly. (Getting old sucks)

I know there was a big uproar between the person running it and the Byers family. I know there was a resolution to it, but I don’t know what that was. I believed they could still run it, but maybe not.

I’m one of those posters from back in the day. And will say, Reitz should make a run this season. thing that I will say about the next tier is this. Look at who plays where. Lincoln played most of their games from those tiers at home (Reitz, MD, North, Memorial). This year they play them all on the road, with a game at Harrison between North and Memorial (ask Jasper about playing there). Truth is, Lincoln could quickly fade into the bottoms of the conference if they can’t figure out winning on the road against quality opponents.

Wasn’t Lincoln incredibly young in the secondary last year? Seems like with another year under their belt, and that ball hawking defense, they could be one of the top defenses in the conference.

North always seems to under perform. I don’t see a top 3 finish for them. I’ll go with 1. Reitz 2. Castle 3. Lincoln

Sparse crowd at the bowl tonight.

ToD. 1 play for the game. 45 yards away. Intercepted. 28-27 final.

Reitz 83 yard TD. Reitz missed xp when LB pushed a player over the long snapper. No flag. 28-27 B. 2:24 left

More or less. 28-14 Pioneers. 4:59 left in the game. Only a miracle can save us.

Officiating is terrible. Their tackles hold every play. And nothing gets called.

B-town intercepts in the end zone.

Boonville drives the length. Tied at 14. B-town getting away with a lot of holding.

Opening drive for a TD for Reitz. Thomas from Davies for 45 yd. 14-7 Reitz

Reitz to receive second half kickoff

Tied at 7 at halftime. Reitz has been sloppy, and B-town is holding their own.

Just like that, TD B-Town. QB made a move and was gone from 55 out. 7-7.
