The poll is much closer than I thought it would be. I am guessing it would be skewed a bit more in favor of CC on the CHSL forum.

I really like the Wildcats, and would root for them to win in almost any other matchup. I do think CC will win, and line play, will be the difference. If DSE skill players could not be the difference makers, then I do not believe the 'Cats' will be either.

And novi? You think 'your biased is showing' try walking in my shoes. lol...

I agree on hoping to keep it close but I think Novi is in for a lambasting.

I agree.

CC has been in Novi since 2005 and this is the first time they have played Novi since the move.

So I don't think we can guarantee the would play every year in the playoffs anyway.

Remember kids only play varsity football for two years. I'm not liking the chances that they meet every year in the playoffs and many players will never get the chance to play the other team.

These schools are so close in location, both teams will make the playoffs in many if not most sports and will meet in the playoffs.

Let it be like the Wings and Colorado Av's used to be, biggest playoff match each year for each team, there is a match-up to make it more intense.

Many of the players are neighbors let them enjoy the "playoff rivals" effect.

No way on a regular season matchup. I hate playing teams twice in a season... and that's what might happen if they schedule each other during the season. Playoff matchups are so much better!

Such is the result of the geography based conference setups and then geography based regions/districs across the state ... repeat matchups up the wazoo!

If one thing's certain, it is that crowd WILL NOT be a factor. CC's crowd we be as, or probably even louder than Novi's. If Novi wants to win this game they'll have to play the hardest they've ever played before...CC isn't a team like Pinckney..

CC is making the 10 minute trip to Novi. I can see complacency being a factor when your travling an hour or more. This game is not going to be decided on a crowd, the kids still have to come out and play. Special teams play, and defense will determine this one.

CC by 10 over Novi, Low scoring affair here look for CC's defense to be...

Like a lot of the folks on the board, I hope this starts up a natural local rivalry between these two schools. I'd love to see this as an annual game.

I'm really hoping Novi will be able pull this out. CC doesn't look as tough as they normally do, and they do appear to be a bit banged up after the loss to De La Salle. That being said, nobody knows how to get their collective minds right for a playoff run like CC does. This will be a very tight game.

Keep in mind that CC's student body isn't concentrated in Novi, but spread out from Milford to Redford.

I imagine the crowd on the CC side will be just as big considering the schools are about 5 minutes apart.

If you are how I think you are have a good game this weekend, need the win to keep in the conference championship hunt.

Please do not answer with anything to obvious, I think we both prefer to comment with our thoughts and no one getting personal info on board

The Canton game is a good idea what this game will be like.

CC pounding the ball run dominated. A few spread plays to keep Novi honest on stacking the line.
Novi using their skill players speed and play calling to make big plays.
In the end the Novi loss of a couple players, and CC defense line will be the difference.

The only other time these 2 met CC handled Novi by 28 points or so.
Different year different teams, I do not believe either team is as good as...

I have not seen CC play since the mid-season ... but at the time I felt they were getting worn down late in games due to too many players playing on both sides of the ball.... I can't say if that has changed.

That being said ... based on the first matchup, the score of the 2nd and results of the 2008 regular season ..... DeLaSalle is simply a better team than CC this season.

I think this should be a good one.

CC 24, Novi 17
