Two area teams are playing in the Illinois semifinals this week, while Missouri's high school football season has reached the quarterfinal round.

College football has reached Week 13 of the season and we are very close to the conference championship games. The College Football Playoff is also getting close to being finalized, giving each matchup over the next few weeks a little more juice.

Week 13 of the college football season will reveal the truth about who's for real and who's not. Take No. 5 Indiana, for example. The Hoosiers have blown past most of their opponents this season, are 10-0 for the first time in school history and first-year head coach Curt Cignetti has already signed a new contract.
