If anybody remembers last years Ole Miss V Eastbrook game came down to a touchdown pass as time ran out to avoid going to Overtime.  And that was against the best team Ole Miss ever had last year....  Now we are back to the best team Ole Miss ever had this year, not sure how that seems to get labeled every year, but that's just how they do in Gas City I guess.  Yes, Ole Miss is in the top 10 in 4A, but who have they really played?  This ranking is based solely on last years success not by the quality of victories this season for sure.  

But tonight, finally a quality opponent, The Mighty Eastbrook Panthers.  Out to prove a point that having quality out of conference opponents have made them a stronger team.  And if anybody will learn and excel from losses it is Coach Adamson and his staff.  Motivation?  Get that can back to it's home, CIC title(most likely) and one step closer to Grant 4 champs!

As to why the chatter on here has been so quiet?  My guess is that everybody in Gas City is Cleaning out the Kmart and getting it ready for the Archery range, players are huddled up around the Milk can saying their goodbyes and Upland and surrounding areas are shining up the Cow Bells to bring the noise tonight... And the players, Making room for "Frank"  to come back home for the season!

To everybody going tonight, Have fun, be safe go early and hit Ivanhoe's, or enjoy a ribeye sandwich fresh off the grill at the field.  It is going to be an electric night!  Enjoy and GO PANTHERS!!! 

You think Ole Miss best team was last year? That's not even close to being accurate. With that being said, i don't believe this will be close tonight. Ole Miss by 2-3 TDs.

I like the fact that Eastbrook and Mississinewa have both strengthened their schedules. Win or lose this does nothing but help you in the long run. Both teams have excellent coaches that will learn something and make adjustments coming out of these first two weeks.

New Haven was not good last year. i think Marion is the real deal and will beat Eastbrook by at least 2 TDs. 

I dont see anyone competing with these two. Only question with Eastbrook is can they replace all that they lost, and with Mississinewa the big question is who will play QB. Mississinewa has been really good at that position over the last 5-6 years i believe. Did the McCoin kid go to play anywhere after HS, also what did the Skeens kid do? Did either of them get many looks for Football? They were both great HS players i thought.

Has any CIC team ever passed a lot?

Yes he did. He would be my number one on my list

WHO are your top 5-10 QBs to ever play in CIC?
