Easy BVAL Fan, I don’t think anyone is actually betting on these games. They are throwing out predictions of how the games might play out as a form of entertainment. No one is not letting these teenagers play a game of football.

I’m sorry, but point spreads for high school games seems in both poor taste and ignorant as to how point spreads are devised in the first place. They have less to do with the quality of teams and most to do with how much money is bet on either side.
Can’t we just let these teenagers play a game of football without that garbage?

DII Rancho Cotate should take Las Lomas. The are well coached and lead the Redwood Empire in almost all stats.
They have a stingy disciplined defensive unit that is only allowing 8.6 points during regular season. They can get with the run and pass. Hope to see these boys in final with Clayton Valley.

Northgate needs to have an upbeat disciplined game to hold off Newark. Newwark is capable of quality trench warfare and dominate the game physically.

Another weekend of playoff action coming up..and since I got all of my picks right last week (except for the scores thanks to srv& pitt haha)..id figure id give it another shot…..Ill start with the Easy one 1st…1) DLS vs Pitt, we all saw last week how explosive Pitt can be, that being said they Haven’t faced a Defense Like Sparty fields..as I’ve said before though DLS needs to clean up the little things before state or they will be prime for a loss…DLS will roll 49-10….2) Freedom VS Logan..I won’t call this the game of the week, because we all did that last week wit pitt vs Mv ( and well we all know how that turned out)..but I will say it has the makings of a exciting game..Logan hasen’t been tested since their lone loss of the season, which makes me wonder how prepared can u be at this level when u have been pulling your starters by halftime for the better part of a month??….Even though Logan is @ home I’m going with Freedom here simply because they’ve been battle tested this year..this game should be close..so it’ll come down to who can make adjustments especially at the half..Freedom 30-Logan 28…..3) SRV VS Amador Valley…This could be a better game then Most think..Amador has done the 1 thing all coaches and players hope for and that’s get hot at the right time they’ve rolled into the playoffs with 1 loss (DLS) in their last 6 games..I think the weather could be a factor here as both coaches have leaned on their Qb’s late in the season..Really this game should come down to discipline ( Turnovers/penalties)..I like AV to get revenge for game they lost @ home earlier in the yr to SRV 22-15..should be a good one…AV 34- SRV 24…4) Cal VS Foothill…We all know Cal has the line and running game to dominate most teams and Foothill??..Well with this years Falcon team, you never know who your gonna get week to week Mostly because of a young Qb and a up and down Defense…Another EBAL rematch but I see the results staying the same with the Grizz winning but I do think Coach Sweeney will have his team better prepared this time around..still CAL 37- Foothill. 28…Sorry I got all bunched up guys I’m on Mobile..anyways should be a great weekend of games…

@ Stew you have a point but De La Salle will do the Winton Stomp on Pitt. A salvage crew may be called to clear the strewn wreckage. It just ain’t gonna happen.
Clayton Valley will cruse into 50+ and Campo will be short by 6.

This coming Friday we have the game of the week in Freedom vs. Logan and El Cerrito vs Bishop O’Dowd..although the Pittsburg/DLS game is of high interest…I looks like it will end of the same old way….

D-1
DLS 49 Pittsburg 14…..Pitt has a good one two punch with Lockett and Ross, but they don’t have a good passing game to back them up…DLS gave up 9 points to MV while Pitt gave up 29…Its up to the Pirate defense to contain DLS…

Freedom 45 James Logan 40….This is going to be a wild game..The Colts have the better defense, but Freedom has the better offense….The game of the Week..

California 31 Foothill 21…Calif has the offense and it will be up to Foothill to stop them…
Sat.
San Ramon 35 Amador Valley 24…The Wolves exploded against Antioch and scored 66 points…It won’t happen here,,but the Don’s will gave SR a game…

D-2
Clayton Valley 47 Dublin 21….The Murphy Gang keeps on rolling..
Rancho Cotate 37 Las Lomas 27…This has all the makings of a shootout…
Sat. 11-17
Casa Grande 28 Concord 20….these teams are about equal..last team to score wins…
NorthGate 34 Newark 28…Could be another shootout

D-3
Campolindo 35 Analy 27….This is the year for Analy, but with all the injuries to Campo…they still have enough to win…
Sat. 11-7
El Cerrio 35 Bishop O’Dowd 24….EC has been consist all year…there were no up and down games..
Cardinal Newman 35 Encinal 13….The Jets have been fighting hard every game..but thisis the end of the road..

D-4
Justin-Siena 44 St. Mary’s of Albany 27
Sat. 11-17
San Marin 27 Drake 18….Drake dumped Valley Christian last week 18-13 but not this week
Arcata 33 Ft. Bragg 20
Salesian 33 St. Helena 27….This will be a wild game also…
