Semis

[straw1397]

I think the state missed a wonderful opportunity to match up east v. west in the dome. The regular season crossover games were great and the semis would have been a perfect place to enhance the game a bit.

Wash v. Waukee
Bett v. Dowling

Very intriguing to say the least.

The IHSAA followed the post-season manual with consideration of geography in the semi-final. I think Bett vs CRW will be good, not so sure if Waukee v WDMD will be as enticing.

Final matchup of CRW vs WDMD is my guess, but maybe Bett will be a spoiler. CRW should've scheduled a tough non-district, but lining up ICW, LM, CRJ and CRK was promising at the time.

ICW almost upset Bett and got throttled twice by CRW. It should be a fun game of a lot of offensive tools versus a pretty tough defense. Bett QB should be okay against CRW defense. CRW has turned a lot of games with blocks or special plays.
