[PNation]

A few others I see

CR Kennedy vs City High: Two teams that need the game if they want to make the playoffs. The loser will struggle to make it.
Waukee NW at Waterloo West: I think Waterloo West would actually be leading the RPI according to the CR Gazette, but NW has played the much tougher schedule. How good is Waterloo West?
West Branch vs Beckman: This game will bring a lot of clarity to who the third best team is in the district, Beckman has improved but how much?

I also think there are a few games that you have up above that will show that some of the teams are pretenders playing an easy schedule to this point.

 

[ISUChip]

City 43, Kennedy 42. Two-point conversion in the final minute to win it. Kennedy will probably have to win out (Bett, Hempstead, CF, Dav North) to even have a shot at postseason.

 

[Pinehawk]

City with final minute wins on 2 point conversions in consecutive weeks? Wow.

Edit: Just saw the game winning catch, unbelievable grab.

 

[Gamefly]

St. Ansgar up 14-0 on Nashua at the half.
2nd half can be watched here if anyone cares.

 

[Gamefly]

St. Ansgar up 27-7 after 3

 

[Gamefly]

St. Ansgar wins 27-7 over nashua.

 

[ISUChip]

Cherokee beat Central Lyon in OT, 16-13.

West Lyon shut out Western Christian, 13-0.

Linn-Mar scored a TD with 0:16 left to beat Cedar Falls, 28-27. CF got to the L-M 39 with 0:01 left, and the hail mary fell incomplete.

Earlham beat Madrid, 21-14.
