D2 Weekly Picks

[Superbee922]

Boone @ Algona - Sigh, someone has to win. 7-6

Carroll @ Heelan - Unfortunately, I predict Heelan will beat them in a playoff re-match. 24-21

Greene Co @ Perry - Greene Co. getting comfortable with close games. 21-20

Webster City @ Humboldt - Game with Greene Co. should not have been that close. Wildcats losing focus? 28-7

D3--Central Clinton @ West Delaware - Surprised Charles City hung that close with WD. Re-focused. 38-13

D5--Centerville @ Fort Madison - Bloodhounds appear to have a little more scoring potential. 33-19

D6--Pella @ Newton - Newton is good, Pella is better. 28-14

D8--Atlantic @ Shenandoah - 24-12. Atlantic improves season off. avg, Shenandoah improves season def. avg.

 

[fmclonefan]

Boone @ Algona -- Win #1 for our friends from Boone. Finally getting to play somebody with a losing record!

Carroll @ Heelan -- Great game. 3A game of the week. Heelan is hard to pick against at home, but can't pick against Carroll yet.

Greene Co @ Perry -- This will be a close one. I guess I'll pick Perry, but is a 50-50 pick.

Webster City @ Humboldt -- Another tough one for WC.

D3--Central Clinton @ West Delaware -- WD comfortably.

D5--Centerville @ Fort Madison -- Could you have picked a battle of worse teams? God bless both of them, because somebody will come out with a V. Fort Madison actually has a very strong running attack, they just can't stop anybody. Fortunately, along comes Centerville.

D6--Pella @ Newton -- I'll go with the Dutch. Newton is having a great year though.

D8--Atlantic @ Shenandoah -- Atlantic should really be able to beat a (1-5) 2A team.

That's funny.... Done in by Saydel. The trendy pick for the week led me astray!

 

[theiceman44]

I'm not being smug, I completely forgot to make my picks and lucked out, BUT

can anyone tell me the last time Saydel won a game?

 

[Wild Man 4510]

They beat Clarke, Osceola in week 1---26-15

 

[Superbee922]

Saydel - what was I thinking. Never again.

Thanks for running this contest again WildMan - lots of fun!

Congratulations Iceman! I'm coming after you in the playoff edition!!
