And if we’re looking ahead to next yr, there’s a good chance 80% of the schedule remains intact. The only 2 teams I don’t think will be on the schedule next yr are CC and that VA team, which were 2 of their 3 wins.
PC & Ville X will be at the Pit, but I expect PC to be about the same, and Ville X to actually be better. Going up to Cleveland to play Eds is difficult even for the good Elder teams. And going to Indy to play Roncalli, who brings back 3/5 of that massive OL isn’t going to be an easy task.
Then you’ve got the GCL. I know the X fans lurking on here will want to tell me how wrong I am, but I expect them to take a noticeable step back, but they’re still St X and that’s never going to be an easy game. I imagine LS will be improved with an established QB, and I actually expect Moeller to be the outright favorite to win GCL.
I do think Elder will be better, but I said the exact same thing last yr, so maybe it’s wishful thinking. Regardless, they’re going to have to make massive strides in the offseason if they want to be truly better in ‘22. Like it has to be the best off-season Ramsey has ever seen. In order for that happen, there needs to be a full commitment by the Lines to go all in the weight room.
