Although Loyola lost their coach, their talented QB, and most of their 300+ linemen last year, they seem to have no problem reloading with their talent, especially in the trenches. Loyola returns arguably one of the top power running backs in the state in D'Anthony Robinson. His yards after contact is off the charts. My point is that Loyola will be a major hurdle for SMCC early in the playoffs. If they manage to beat them, then SMCC should reach the finals. <br /><br />If SMCC reaches the finals, it could end up being a rematch of their first game of this year's season between SMCC and Pewamo-Westphalia or a rematch from the 2014 semi-finals with Northpointe Christian. Even though PW loses 16-18 of their starters, they have a chance to be really good each year due to their coaching, their system and their numbers (around 70 varsity players). However PW plays in a very weak conference so they are not challenged. Northpointe Christian returns 16 starters, including a stellar line and a RB/LB who is being recruited mainly at the D-2 level. Like SMCC, NPC plays in a tough conference of D-4 and D-5 schools, where 4 teams went to the playoffs last year so they will be just as battle-tested as SMCC.Joel Shafferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13049505664668768233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898014593441742663.post-57544383523704828752017-05-21T16:35:38.169-04:002017-05-21T16:35:38.169-04:001) Smcc challenging for league title and a state c...1) Smcc challenging for league title and a state championship.<br />2) Milan will contend with Smcc.<br />3) View should have a change as well.<br />4) Huron has new coach and new system.

Don't really know what to think of Huron, their offense was awful last year which Spiess will have to fix. Flat Rock's defense got shredded by 3 decent "T" teams last season(Jefferson, Riverview, SMCC) so they have to figure that out. I think it's only a two team race between Milan & CC for the title. Don't see it at all with FR & Huron this season in terms of being elite teams.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898014593441742663.post-72481559704481919992017-05-17T21:43:55.898-04:002017-05-17T21:43:55.898-04:00Smcc needs passing game?

I would say the victory over last years co-champs Milan was a pretty nice win. CC's season will get a big boost if they can beat PW in week 1. Right now I see them going 7-2 or 6-3 and making a solid run in the playoffs.
