A few others I see

Class 5A

Cedar Rapids Kennedy vs Dubuque Hempstead: More so for Hempstead if they win they are probably in the playoffs, if they lose it could be tough even with a 6-3 record.

Class 4A

Bondurant Farrar vs Gilbert: On paper this shouldn't be a game with a 1-5 team vs a 6-0 team, but B-F has had a tough schedule, and Gilbert is just getting into the meat of theirs, last year they really struggled down the stretch they need a solid showing in this one.

Class 3A

Assumption vs Washington: Mount Vernon is going to win this district, this is for 2nd place. On paper it doesn't seem like a challenge for Washington, but I think it will be close.

Class 2A

Unity Christian vs Cherokee: I think Cherokee wins this game, but Unity still has a chance to work it's way into the playoffs with a win.

Osage vs Waukon: Osage can pretty much wrap up a home playoff game with a win, Waukon can cluster the district up with a win.

Class 1A:

West Branch vs Wilton: Even though West Branch appears to be down a little bit, still is always a competitive game.

Class A

South Winn vs North Tama: This is a big game for seeding within the district, both teams should be in, but in what seed is not determined. If South Winn wins then Wapsie vs North Tama next week is for the district title outright I believe.

8 Man

All of the games in District 5: First of all after Ed-Co it's a big mess, it will come down to points, but also for making the playoffs as one of the at large bids point differential could be very important.

Thursday scores:

LeMars 44, Fort Dodge 37
SC North 37, DM East 0
Pella 42, DM Hoover 10

Week 7 game I'm interested in is Ogden vs WCV Winner gets into the playoffs loser is out. BCMOORE has WCV by 5 and ogden has only won 1 game. Both teams can score points but not alot of defense. We'll see.

 

[PNation]

You are correct about that being an important game, but if Ogden loses it isn't necessarily out because of their victory over Grandview Christian, I believe it would more or less create a 3 way tie which would come down to points. They play Nodaway Valley next week.

Bondurant-Farrar 31, Gilbert 28. Lot of mistakes by Gilbert in this one. 3 turnovers and failure to recover a loose kickoff.
