Some "Big" games tonight as the (in my opinion) four playoff teams will face off.

AGWSR vs Wapsi is the headliner and will show who is the front runner along with GR

GR vs Denver I think Denver is the fourth team in the district but have the talent to surprise someone.

My predictions are an "upset" win for Wapsi and GR team running away with it.

 

[jen44]

Wapsie wins 42-28
Denver wins 38-6

 

[Derder42]

AGWSR - 35 to 17
GR - 42 to 21

Only real playoff implicating game tonight is AGWSR vs Denver. If Denver catches AGWSR looking to next week they could make a game of it. Most likely that front line of AGWSR should handle things and they should run away with this game setting up a district title match for next week.
The third a fourth playoff spots are a little up in the air. With Wapsi coming from behind to beat Grundy last week they will set in the driver seat with their matchup against Denver being key for the third playoff spot. Grundy's matchup against Denver will also be crucial as a loss will keep them out of the playoffs. Denver has its own destiny in its hands as well with a lot of key matchups left.

A lot is riding on this Friday's games.

GR Vs AGWSR will likely determine the district champion. This game will come down to which line can play on the big stage and of course special teams and turnovers. I see a low scoring affair with Gr eeking out a victory.

Grundy vs Denver will shape up the rest of the playoff picture for d4. If Grundy loses they will be out of the playoffs unless they win out and Denver or Wapsi loses out. Both of those teams have yet to play BCL which is occupying the cellar of the league. If Grundy wins then it gets muddled for 3rd and 4th in the district. Best guess Denver pulls out a close one in a high scoring affair.

GR's Starting QB is out for this week. Didn't go so well when he was out week 1

To me it's pretty easy

AGWSR vs. G-R for the district title, if the Kickbush kid is out then that is a big deal

Wapsie will get 3rd

Denver vs. Grundy for the 4th spot

North Tama gets 6th

BCLUW gets 7th

Their RB, who has 900 yards in 5 games, was also out and it was against Union. Kickbush averages 4-7 for 67 yards passing and 28 yards rushing per game. With their line and backs, it shouldn't make as big of a difference as it might for other teams. By no means am I saying that he's not important and that it won't hurt them, just that I don't think it will be the deciding factor.
I've only seen them play once and I know that he's a great athlete and leader, but I think that it will hurt them, but not as much as some might think. Just my opinion. Others know their team a heck of a lot better than me.

Only game this week that has any bearing on the playoffs is Denver vs Wapsi. Winner gets advantage into the third spot. A win by Denver solidifies Gr at one, Agwsr at two, Denver three and Wapsi at four. A Wapsi win makes next week vs Gr mean a lot as that could jumble up the top three spots throwing it to points.

My guess is a Denver win in a tight one.
