Tomorrow nights games for all four of these schools is a formality. Who wins the sectional title games?

Hobart beats Lowell. I think Hobart is the better team and are finally healthy. Lowell has one dude. Stop him and they are done.

CP beats Penn. Although, I think Penn is better this year than last and CP is worse this year than last. I think CP still wins it based on their strength of schedule vs Penn’s.

Lowell wins by 10+ I have no faith in Hobart at all. But I have been wrong before I think this game is set and over by half


And
Crown point probably wins but I’d love to see Penn take the W and start getting back to Penn of old.

Crown Point 31
Penn 21
Crown Point will be more battle tested (although not really "tested") than Penn is. I'll take CP in a good ball game where the final score doesn't indicate how good the game was. If Penn wins this one, this year, wouldn't surprise me though. CP likes their defense though and that hasn't boded well for opponents over the past 3 years.

Lowell 28
Hobart 14
To be honest. the fact that the last game came down to a Field Goal was a miracle for the Brickies. It was entirely due to the Hobart defense playing nearly lights out (especially in the 1st half). The Hobart offense didn't mount a productive drive (more than 1 first down) until the first drive of the 2nd half (which ended in a turnover on downs). Both teams made a ton of mistakes in the first matchup but without the early pick 6 on a dropped pass by Lowell, Hobart would've been down 14-0 at half and come out in the 2nd half with a good drive that ends with no points. Hard to envision Hobart winning the rematch but they are a good football team and certainly have a nice chance to win some postseason hardware. I like the Devils in this one though.

You do realize that Hobart was battling mono throughout team and still could/should have won.

I’ll take Hobart in this one.

No, I was unaware of the mononucleosis plaguing 'X' amount of players on the Brickies for the week of September 26th. If you tell me the ENTIRE offense for the Brickies had the mono, then maybe I'll give ya a break and accept your logic/ reasoning. IF it was the defense, then they should get mono again because they BALLED out!

Lowell offensively is a one man band. Stop James make them throw. Lowell defensively is putrid in the secondary. If Hobart qb plays half way decent, lights out for Lowell.

Halfway decent would look like a Hall of Fame performance compared to how he played in game 1. Lowell uses more than 1 ball carrier rather frequently, they throw well off their run game, and yeah their secondary is bad but Hobart isn't the Marino Dolphins out there offensively. Lol they're MUCH better at running it than they are throwing it. I agree that attacking Lowell through the air is the right plan but doesn't mean Hobart has all the pieces to attack them that way (threw for 86 yards in matchup number 1) and in Hobart's other loss this season, they threw for 62 yards... Almost like forcing HOBART to throw is the recipe...

I’ll concede that Hobart qb is not Dan Marino in fact both qb’s are more runners than throwers. I think James and Pickett get neutralized and whichever qb plays better will win the game.

I will still go with Hobart by 7+
