Akron-Westfield vs Westwood: 28-7 in favor of Westwood
- The two teams split last season but we are seeing a completely different Akron-Westfield Westerners club and I believe they will not refill Jacobs shoes very easily.
- Akron loses nearly everything (Jacobs/Top 2 Receivers/Top9/10 Tacklers)
- Westwood returns a strong running attack and will wear down the brand new defense
Gehlen Catholic vs Unity Christian: 21-14 in favor of Gehlen
- Unity has the bragging rights after a 14-0 win last year over Gehlen, but after a year full of varsity EXP for the backfield for Gehlen, they edge out Unity in the season opener
- Gehlen brings virtually all of their offense and has good size up front
- Gehlen's main questions will be on defense losing 4/5 top tacklers
- Unity returns their passing attack but lose a 1100yd+ runner in Schiebout
- Unity also loses 4/5 top tacklers
Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn vs Okoboji HMS squeeks out a 21-20 win over Boji
- Both team lose a lot of production, HMS has the advantage up front so they get the small advantage in this game - big toss-up
- Hartley POUNDED Boji 66-0 last year
- Hartley loses nearly all of their production from a 6-3 season on both sides of the ball
- Okoboji loses their passing attack but return their top rusher
- Okoboji returns their top 3 tacklers
Hinton vs Woodbury Central 21-17 in favor of Hinton
- Big Q on the Qb situation for both teams, which can step up and take the reigns early in the season. The team with the better quarterback play wins the game
- Hinton with a new coach at the helm with something to prove replacing a big time name
- Hinton loses their QB but returns 2 of the 4 rushers that split the carries pretty evenly last season
- Hinton returns a good chunk of their already strong defense from last season
- WC loses their QB but return nearly everything else on offense
- WC also returns a good chunk of a solid defense from last season
MMCRU vs MVAOCOU 24 - 14 in favor of MVAOCOU
- MVAOCOU's only win last season is over MMCRU who went winless last year

- MVAOCOU loses nearly their entire offensive production
- MVAOCOU loses 5/6 top tacklers on D
South O'Brien vs GT-RA 21-7 in favor of SOHS
- SOHS downed GTRA 19-6 last year and much the same this year
- SOHS loses virtually no one
- GTRA loses their receiving corps and a few of their top tacklers
- The two teams split last season but we are seeing a completely different Akron-Westfield Westerners club and I believe they will not refill Jacobs shoes very easily.
