Kudos to the run last year, but I don't think 2022 is going to go so well in Middlebury Laporte @ New Prairie - NP - NP should have a good team again, LaPorte might come out inspired or they might come out behind the 8 ball after the off-season changes. Mishawaka @ Marian (Mish) - Cavemen - If Cavemen have the answers at the QB position they should have a championship level squad this year. South Northwood @ Jimtown - NW - I got a feeling Northwood will surprise like they seem to do every 3-4 years. Bremen @ Laville - LV - Laville has been on a better trajectory the last 4 seasons. Glenn @ Boone Grove - No idea Hammond Central @ Washington - Hammond Central - They gotta be better than Washington, right? Osceola Grace @ Clay - DT contraction update after this match-up.

Bucksweep22 Posted August 6, 2022 Author Share Posted August 6, 2022 Valpo @ Penn - Balis and the kingsmen pound the rock and takes this one by two scores Elkhart @ Concord- Lions just have too many healthy weapons not to edge this one by 3 scores St . Joe @ Lakeland- they’ll look in one direction all night just like their 7 on 7s. Lakeland would have to man St Joes recruit with a 4 man bracket. Indians big. Adams @ Northridge - Adams has done nothing the past 3 seasons and it’s not going to change in the two weeks the new coach has put together his case of Madden expert coaches. Northridge by 4 scores Laporte @ New Prairie - if they can block the Cougars should take this one by 14 Mishawaka @ Marian (Mish)- Marian lost its fire power to keep up with the well oiled ground and pound of the cavemen. Cavemen by 21 South Northwood @ Jimtown- Jimtown has no one to go toe to toe with the Panthers highly recruited WR. Northwood by 21 Bremen @ Laville - what ever offense Laville decides to bring to the table will prove too much for the Lions. Laville by 28 Glenn @ Boone Grove - just a guess Hammond Central @ Washington- no clue another guess Osceola Grace @ Clay- The bishop sycamore of the North takes this one by a lot. Gary West Side @ Riley - south sliders take this one in a battle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnsnow Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 North Valpo @ Penn I’ve seen Valpo in a scrimmage and while that must be taken with a grain of salt, Penn still has some mystique at home and a front 7 on defense that rivals anyone in the North. Offense is tough to come by 13-10 Kingsmen in OT. Elkhart @ Concord The Lions bring back a ton and Concord doesn’t. First game under the lights caused the Lions issue last year and that and too many weapons gets Concord as it breaks open in the 2nd half. 34-7 Lions St Joe @ Lakeland: Indians much improved 24-7 Adams @ Northridge: Not big on the Raiders this year but Adams has had very little time with a new coach in a rebuild. Adams makes too many mistakes… Raiders 27-19 Laporte @ New Prairie: NP s scary good at home. QB runs wild. 35-14 Cougs Mishawaka @ Marian (Mish): Mishawaka is my call in the NLC. Another Fischer at QB and Marion is in for a rough regular season (for their standards) albeit they’ll be a different team come playoff time. Mish 33-14 South Northwood @ Jimtown: Ethan Evers is best player on the field. 24-21 NW Bremen @ Laville guess Glenn @ Boone Grove guess Hammond Central @ Washington: as others have said, has to be better than Washington Osceola Grace @ Clay ?

If not, watch the show play out…. Well I am offended by your remark about the Adams staff. Are they behind the 8 ball when it comes to having time with the kids? Absolutely. The Madden comment is what I take offense to. How many state titles have you won as an assistant coach? Just curious. The Adams head coach has the last two under his belt. I think his knowledge far exceeds that of a video game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well all my predictions were on point and margin of victory as well, besides Boone Grove shooting themselves in the foot. Adams lost by 5.4 scores so I guess I know something.

Last I recall I don’t see any assistant coaches in the win column in the record books and jumping on an established program that has had and had success (last night). Its a lot harder trying to win when you don’t have D1 recruits on both sides of the ball. Also, a little reading comprehension goes along way. I never stated he was a madden level coach I said the new coach has put together…meaning some of his assistants. But, appreciate the poor attempt to infer anything other then what I stated. But, Adams did lose and by a large margin 5.4 TDs. Edited August 20, 2022 by Bucksweep22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocket Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Let’s focus on some of the positives for the conference in week 1. Penn, Elkhart and New Prairie with dominant wins. My guess is it’ll be a 3 horse race this season and as of now will give the edge to the big boys(Penn & Elkhart). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
