But sure. Convincing win and Jasper wouldnt stand a chance. 🙄 Great season last year. SIAC championship is a difficult task. Great week 1 win. JMO Memorial wins convincingly if healthy.

I just don’t think Jasper will have much for Memorial if they meet again. Tigers would be 6-0 with 6 convincing Wins if healthy all season. I get injury’s are part of it but rarely do teams start the season with 4 or 5 all SIAC kids out weeks 1 and 2. Not sure Memorial makes up a 24 pt deficit regardless of who was playing/not playing...sometimes Week 1 games are just unpredictable and aren't indicative of how a team's season will go. Not looking to argue on the matter just giving my 2 cents. I would love to see this rematch in the sectional. And if memory serves me right, this is roughly when Memorial started to turn things on last season. So I can understand the growing optimism. But this is not the 2021 SIAC either. The next 3 weeks will tell us a lot about the upper half of the conference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a win on Friday would be a cherry on top, maybe Vincennes can have us some of that Week 2 magic Edited September 25, 2022 by TigerFan20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next 3 weeks will tell us a lot about the upper half of the conference. They don’t have to make up a 24 point deficit. It will be 0-0 with a completely different memorial team lining up to play. I’ll be happy to eat crow if they play in sectional and Jasper wins. 2021 the SIAC was very good. Jasper ran the table in conference, Memorial - semi state, and MD - state.

The last time North was at Inman, they were ranked top 10 and were upset by the Alices in their 1st season back in the SIAC. I say VL covers the (-10) Castle covers...by 3 or 4 scores Reitz should handle Memorial... (-24) seems like a lot. But they just throttled a Castle team that I was really impressed with just two Friday's ago, who I thought would give the Panthers everything they could handle and even considered picking the upset. This tells me the Reitz offense has ascended even further since VL saw them in Week 2. I do think it will be hard for them to duplicate that type of performance back to back weeks..and Memorial is clicking at the right time. Reitz won't cover but wins by a couple scores.

Jasper ran the table in conference, Memorial - semi state, and MD - state. Correct. But I wasn't talking about making up 24 pts in a possible sectional rematch. I'm talking about Week 1, Memorial at Jasper and the way that game played out. You felt the outcome would have been different, and Memorial would be 6-0 had they been healthy from the start. My opinion was that regardless of who was playing for Memorial that day in August, Jasper seemed to have an effective game plan that worked and there was more to it than just injured Tiger players. At this point in the season, I would pick Memorial over Jasper. But Week 6 is a long way from Week 1. And again you're right, the 2021 SIAC was very good and may end up being better than the 2022 version. But Reitz was average at best last year and VL was just bad. That is not the case this year and Memorial has yet to play either of them. My point was simply that there is still a lot to sort out in these final 3 weeks as far as the conference standings go. Makes for great discussion! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His yds / game seemed low in what you posted. Just curious. On your pick of Memorial, do you see them scoring 50, or shutting down the panther offense?

They haven’t this year and Memorial IMO will be the best team defense Reitz has seen this year. Reitz is a big favorite for a reason but don’t underestimate Memorials ability to prepare to win 1 game. I think this staff has proven they can win and compete on any stage over the past 6 years. Memorial will have to play lights out to have a chance. I think the only outcome that will be a surprise IMO is a blowout win by either team.

Screagle Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 (edited) I do think Reitz will have a HUGE chip on their shoulder based on the last 5 games Vs Memorial all being blowouts. I expect an extremely fired up excited Panthers team ready to erase 5 straight losses. I know Memorial felt the same when they finally ended a streak to the Panthers.

Evansville50 Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 This may be the most competitive week of the season. The big game may be a bit of a let down. Memorial maybe still due to health doesn’t have the dudes to keep up with Reitz. castle wins easy the rest might be closer than the spread. I could see Central winning. North & Vincennes is a toss up. Bosse might cover too. A couple weeks from tournament time. Still feel like it’s Panthers at Lucas Oil, everyone else average 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerFan20 Posted September 25, 2022 Author Share Posted September 25, 2022 Mid-season previews for Memorial/Reitz will be out on Wednesday since this will be the most talked about game on here.

Looks like Castle shut down Reitz Passing attack, but Reitz said “We will beat you on the ground” and unofficially had 376 rushing yards. Memorial is going to have their hands full after watching last nights game for Reitz/Castle I’m guessing everyone knows Ben Davies (1064 yds passing) didn’t play against Central or Castle. Vera has played well in his absence, but is not nearly the same threat passing the ball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The C&P article said he could’ve played against Castle, but it was coaches decision to have Vera to start. Reitz likely saw the size advantage against Castle judging by the rushing yards, since Castle’s starting D-Line is undersized and surprised they didn’t have any 2 way players on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The -24 is a little eye opening for an away game, since the best defenses will go out at it. The GID predictor has Reitz -12.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They haven’t in a very long time. And yes the D line is tiny. Probably average 185-190. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
