CIC Week 9

[Indiansreloaded]

Final week of the regular season.  The CIC Championship is on the line this week.  Sectionals start next week.  So let's hear the predictions for this week and who you think will win a Sectional title for the CIC.

Blackford at Alexandria--Blackford has their best record since 2020 with 2 regular season wins but they won't make it 3 wins this week as Alexandria rolls to a win.

Eastbrook at Oak Hill--Eastbrook took a thumping this last week against Mississinewa.  Oak Hill was thumped by Ole Miss to open CIC play.  Oak Hill has been up and down this year.  Eastbrook started the season off with 2 losses, which may be a first under Adamson.  Now Eastbrook has lost 2 in a row which is a rarity under Adamson.  This game is going to be a close one but Eastbrook rights the ship and rings cowbells as they win this one to end the losing streak.

Mississinewa at Madison-Grant--This is the game that everyone has had marked on the calendar for a year.  Can Mississinewa make it 18 straight regular season wins?  Can Madison-Grant go undefeated in the regular season for the first time in a number of years?  This one could be a high scoring game.  Last week Mississinewa's defense held the high powered Eastbrook offense to less than 30 yards of total offense in the first half and jumped out to a 44-0 lead at the half.  Madison-Grant won a close one 2 weeks ago at home for their homecoming game against Eastbrook.  The Mississinewa starters have yet to play an entire game this season.  Mississinewa has the #1 defense in the nation.  MG has one of the most explosive offenses in the state.  This should make this game a good one.  In the end, Mississinewa just has too much size, quickness, and finesse for MG as Mississinewa cruises to another W with a running clock in the 4th quarter.

I predict Mississinewa and Madison-Grant to both win their respective Sectionals.  Mississinewa and Madison-Grant both have the potential to make very deep runs in the state tournament with some media sources predicting both teams to be playing well into November.  

Good luck to all CIC teams this week as they close out the regular season and begin preparations for the State Tournament.

I imagine if you figure in strength of schedule, Mississinewa would have the #64598th defense in the nation.

 

Madison-Grant will win their sectional.  Mississinewa will get thumped by Fort Wayne Bishop Luers.  I hope I'm wrong but not likely.

Congrats to Mississinewa for winning the CIC title again this year and going undefeated in the regular season.  Let's hope the injuries that Ole Miss had this week are minor and the players can return this week.  Mississinewa will make a run in the State Tournament but if the injuries have a major impact it will be very difficult run and will limit how deep they go.

Congrats to Madison-Grant on an excellent season.  MG will make a deep run in the State Tournament and they all stay healthy.

Good Luck to all CIC teams next week as they prepare this week for Sectionals.
