There are only eleven...

Is Lincoln-Way East the best team in Illinois?

...undefeated teams left among the top thirty in MaxPreps. After this weekend, there will be no more than ten. I'll see one of them, Kaneland or Morris, go down Friday night. (And possibly another on Saturday if Downers Grove North upsets Glenbard West.) Here's the Elite Eleven:

1. Lincoln-Way East * plays Joliet West;

3. Marian Central plays Wheaton Academy;

4. Cary-Grove * plays Prairie Ridge;

5. Glenbard West * plays Downers Grove North;

7. Neuqua Valley plays Bartlett;

10. Kaneland plays Morris;

14. Crete-Monee * plays Rich East;

15. Boylan plays Auburn;

22. Maine South is at Glenbrook South;

24. Batavia is at Elgin; and

28. Morris is at Kaneland.
