Comments
My best guess is that Proviso West is the clear underdog in this matchup. The Panthers beat only one team with an above .500 record during the regular season and that was Leyden. And their first round playoff opponent (Taft) was clearly overmatched.
On the other side, Glenbrook South beat three playoff teams this fall and fell by only 11 points to top-ranked Maine South. They also lost by just one point to undefeated Stevenson.
Proviso West certainly has a ton of talent and has had a great season but will have to play almost a perfect game in this one to prevail.
do you think Proviso West has a chance against Glenbrook South?
