Loyola
(2-0) at Providence
(0-2)
When:
7:30 p.m. Friday.
Edgy’s take:
The Celtics (0-2) have been at this point before. Loyola’s defense has been good as ever, and junior QB Malcolm Weaver is a big boost to the Ramblers’ offense. Can Providence get its offensive woes corrected against one of the best defenses in the CCL Blue?
Edgy’s pick:
Loyola 17-13.
Simeon (2-0) vs. Morgan Park (2-0)
When:
7 p.m. Saturday at Gately Stadium
Edgy’s take:
One of the premier games in the Public Leagie and the area this season. Look for a wide-open game. Can the Wolverines slow down the Mustangs and junior QB DaeShaun Hurley? Can the Mustangs find an answer for the multiple weapons from Simeon’s spread offense?
Edgy’s pick:
Simeon 27-21.
Glenbard North (2-0) at Naperville North (2-0)
When:
7:30 p.m. Friday.
Edgy’s take:
Glenbard North’s has allowed 14 points in two games. Naperville North’s defense pitched a shutout last week against St. Charles East. Welcome to the DuPage Valley opening weekend, where every game is a dandy.
Edgy’s pick:
Glenbard North 10-7.
Vernon Hills (2-0) at Lakes
(2-0)
When:
7:30 p.m. Friday.
Edgy’s take:
Will anyone challenge Vernon Hills? Lakes could be that test. The Cougars have scored 101 points in two games behind D-I wideouts DaVaris Daniels and Evan Spencer ( Ohio State). Keep an eye on Lakes senior OL/DL John Pfeifferand senior K Mike Beckman.
Edgy’s pick:
Vernon Hills 37-24.
T.F. South (2-0) at T.F. North (2-0)
When:
7 p.m. Friday.
Edgy’s take:
The 52nd meeting is for the Wooden Shoe/Mushroom trophy. South’s passing game is solid behind senior QB Kevin Hallberg. North will look to run it behind RB Devonte Stevenson.
Edgy’s pick:
T.F. South 20-19.
