Preseason Bowling

Whether there is a regional bowl game, open divisions in every section, or just about any other tweak in format, the one factor for Northern California football that may never change is the dominance of De La Salle-Concord.

  The Spartans, who have won 21 straight North Coast Section titles, are heavy favorites to be unbeaten once again heading into this year’s CIF Northern California Open Division bowl game. They are going for their fifth straight state title and haven’t lost to a NorCal opponent (if you don’t count Fresno as being from NorCal) since 1991. 

The CIF itself also has contributed to a lack of much suspense for the Northern California bowl games in the Open Division and Division I since there are just four teams that will be eligible for the four slots. In addition to De La Salle or whichever team wins from the NCS, the other three teams will be the Central Coast Section Open Division winner plus the Division I and Division II winners from the Sac-Joaquin Section.
