Either you know something we don't or you are leaning a little too much on the DII side. I will take: Abbott, Rochelle, RS, GC, Newcastle, Northside, and Waco.

 

[Hornet Nation]

It's Rochelle's homecoming and first home game of the year that they will get to play due to forfeit by Panther Creek, Rochelle wins big in this one.

 

[WV Backer]

I'm definitely interested in the Robert Lee vs. Garden City match-up. On paper it looks like a comfortable win for GC but they're playing @ RL so maybe the Steers can pull one out. They both bullied up on Sterling City so that's not much of an indication but GC played Ira tough and that, in and of itself, speaks volumes in my book. Good luck to both teams.

One other game that I wouldn'd mind going to this week is Highland v Lueders-Avoca

 

[Blue Bird]

Knox City at Lometa interests me. I'm thinking that Robert Lee is a little over ranked at this point in the season. I would not want to put any money on them when they play Blackwell.

 

[REDANDWHITE24/7]

Follett versus Valley seems like a must watch for me.

 

[SimplyPut]

Strawn over Newcastle
Blanket over Rochelle
Looks to be great games but I'm going with both the underdogs.

GC should have their burgers and be on the bus at halftime.

Calvert @ Abbott - Calvert by 10

Blanket @ Rochelle - Rochelle by 45

Walnut Springs @ Richland Springs - RS by 16

Garden City @ Robert Lee - GC by 30

Strawn @ Newcastle - Strawn by 24

WF Notre Dame @ Northside - Northside by 6

Waco Methodist Home @ Coolidge - Coolidge by 10

Milford @ Mount Calm - Mount Calm by 8

 

[Blue Bird]

The Strawn and Newcastle matchup will very likely have a rematch in the third round of the playoffs. As a coach, do you go all out for the win, or do you hold plays and formations back for the playoff game?

 

[SWRaider]

Any surprises? I was especially surprised by the Rochelle game

 

[Chap_24]

Ropes vs. Rankin was a surprise to most. Might have been the game of the week. Came down to Rankin scoring with 5 seconds left to take the 2 point lead.

 

[Hornet Nation]

When on team comes to play and one doesn't there is a surprise or two, Blanket came to play and scored with 7 seconds left, to many mistakes by Rochelle in this one, I'm sure they will regroup and be ready for district
