There could be some interesting games for some of the schools, especially if they opt out. I think a Bucyrus Crestline game would be good for both programs . Willard and Upper could renew their old NOL ties. You could try to do them and still do the playoff game, but it would be easier to do it week 7. Probably won’t hapoen, but if you are a very low seed, you are going to draw a very good team, I think a competive game would be better than a blowout They have already scheduled a game for Week 9. My dad had an old saying....even a blind hog gets an acorn now and then....

Depending on whether or not there will be a 7th league game, CC has either 1) already clinched a share and is now going for an outright title this week, or 2) needs a win this week to clinch a share plus another win over SE to win it outright.

It won't matter much this week, but rumor is that Colonel Crawford will be without Lincoln Mollenkopf for the rest of the season, due to him open-enrolling to Colonel Crawford from Bucyrus this season. I am sure this will have a serious impact on the postseason for the Eagles.

I don’t know his situation, but I believe if you transfer to a district you don’t reside in after your freshman year, you sit out the last half of the season, including playoffs

The official brackets are out on the OHSAA site. ohsaa.org/Sports-Tournaments/Football/Football-2020/2020-OHSAA-Football-Playoffs-CoverageInteresting coincidence. IF OHSAA had used the Harbins (according to Joe Eitel) to seed the teams, #1 Colonel Crawford would receive a bye. Then they would play the winner of #16 Seneca East and #17 Cardinal Stritch Catholic. Possibly could have killed two birds with one stone. I guess the coaches could see it the same way, but looking at the polls, I doubt the coaches will give CC the #1 seed. Even though they have a very large lead in computer points.

If the leaked region 25 bracket is accurate, #19 Buckeye Central will be making a trip to the Ohio River to take on #14 Wellsville on 10/9

Well, there's that chance for CC vs SE you wondered about. Although Delta is 28-10 favorite over SE on calpreps.
and we get a brief glimpse of Ridgedale playing N10 football again

Although I don't think Ridgedale will be too thrilled to be playing the Warriors. Not sure I'd agree with calpreps on Delta. Pretty similar schedules for both. 2 wins against easy opponents, 3 losses against tough opponents. SE with the home field advantage. Delta Evergreen (0-5) [VI:22] W 35-7 Bryan (3-2) [IV:14] L 3-14 Archbold (5-0) [VI:22] L 0-35 Swanton (0-5) [V:18] W 44-0 Wauseon (5-0) [IV:14] L 0-35 Seneca East Buckeye Central (1-4) [VII:25] W 35-16 Bucyrus (0-5) [VI] W 42-0 Mohawk (3-2) [VII:26] L 14-43 Wynford (4-1) [V:18] L 7-40 Carey (4-1) [VI:22] L 0-49

I also posted this in the SBC forum since Upper is playing Willard this week. I'm interested in people's thoughts on what Upper needs to do to improve the program.
Upper(boys enrollment 208)....Results ____________________________________
Mohawk(102)....................L 42-0 Colonel Crawford(125)........L 54-19 Buckeye Central(73)..........W 26-18 Carey(117).......................L 64-0 Wynford(152)...................L 68-21 Seneca East(131)..............L 41-7 Firelands(207)..................L 59-20(playoffs) Bucyrus(146)...................W 62-34 Willard(176)..................
Since 2015 Upper has won nine conference football games. Eight of those have been against Bucyrus or Buckeye Central. The other was against tiny Ridgedale(enrollment 70)
As an Upper grad I just can't understand how the largest school in the league(by far) can struggle this bad.

I love our kids to death and will always support them, but the fact remains that they don't deal with adversity very well and that manifests itself in several different ways. Just last week, we had a kid quit the football team. It was Week 8...he was a sophomore and played mostly JV, but played in the playoff game the week prior and had a good chance of starting in the game last week vs Bucyrus...but instead, he walked away. For too many, it's easier to quit and find something easier to do. And to be fair, it's not just a football problem...it's a school problem.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I understand what you are saying and I'm sure its a factor... But, wouldn't this problem also affect the kids at the other N10 schools. A larger enrollment is a significant advantage in football. On average, we should be a top third league team, assuming kids aren't a whole lot different in Sycamore or Carey or Seneca County or Crawford County. Do we have too many "city kids"?

Though it's fair to say that we are more "city" than any other school in the N10, it's also quite accurate to say that demographically speaking, we are all virtually identical to each other...largely rural and agricultural based communities. We all share many of the same issues, but the difference lies in the attitude, mentality, and mindset we choose to apply to the situation. Some schools can overcome it, others cannot. Just take a look at the schools in the MAC...they are not all that different, but their collective success is light years ahead of other similarly sized leagues/conferences/communities.

Some can overcome it, some can't. I want to know what Upper needs to do different than they've been doing in the last 5 years(roughly), so they can overcome the lethargy. Because I honestly wonder if a football program this bad is a plus or minus for the kids. I'm not sure people realize how bad this program really is. In football, if you are losing badly to schools 1/3 to 2/3 your size, you are playing fundamentally bad football. When you do it year after year after year, it becomes normal to under-achieve. High school football isn't all about winning but it is about striving, improving and being the best you can be...as part of a team. It is a life lesson. Back in the NOL days we had bad stretches, but we were playing bigger school almost every week. A 3-6 record against the likes of Shelby, Tiffin and Bellevue doesn't compare to a 3-6 record these days. I know its easy for me to complain from afar, but its not for my own satisfaction that I want the program to improve. I want the kids to get the benefits that I was given back in the day, and I seriously question whether that is happening.

Is Upper going to, or even trying to, schedule a game in week 10? The headline in the N10 website says Upper has ended it's season. The top teams in the N10 have scheduled competitive games in order to get better. I agree, it's the attitude, mentality, and mindset that is the backbone of a program. You don't need to look at the MAC.....look no farther than the teams that are beating you.

Whittaker, I feel your pain, as a Bucyrus fan and alumni. It is ironic that the two old NOL schools are the least completive in the the N10. Nothing against the other N 10 schools, but they are not Bellevue, Tiffin Colombian, Shelby, etc. it makes me shutter to think what the scores would be if Upper and Bucyrus were still playing those schools. Both programs had some success at times in the NOL, but both have fallen on hard times, at least in football. There is no simple solution for both schools. Having said that, the kids need to commit to the program. They need to get in the weight room, not quit when things do not go their way, and believe that the can compete.

As I mentioned above, this is a problem that plagues us. It's become too easy for kids to walk away from adversity and either go find something easier or do nothing at all. Our girls basketball team has 6 potential retuners from last year that have decided not to play this year. Lots of excuses and unfortunately, they get reinforced at home.
