Football: October 2006 Archives

The Chicago Public League football playoffs begin this week and with a twist.
Since only the top four teams in the Illini Conferences make the playoffs for the Prep Bowl, a Week 9 game was added for all of the schools.
The big winner is Vocational, which is 4-4 but based on its playoff points figures to earn a berth in the state playoffs if it can beat Taft this week.
Only teams from the four Illini Conferences are eligible for the state tournamet field that will be announced on Saturday night.

Movin' Up could be a theme for next week's state playoff pairings

I do football rankings every week, and like almost everyone else, this has been the most difficult fall in memory. I have probably set a record for having the most schools in and out of the Super 25.
