I am picking against the BC Moore spread for another week.

South Tama is a 17 point favorite over A-P. I think ST wins, but not by 17, take the Falcons.

East Marshall at Saydel is an interesting game. It is the worst ranked team in 2A vs the worst ranked team in 3A. Saydel is a 11 point favorite. No way Saydel wins by 11 in this one. Take the points and East Marshall.

IFS at R-S. Two teams playing for 5th place. IFA is a 12 point favorite. What makes this hard to pick is the "give a crap" factor. Is everybody ready for hoops and wrestling, or do they go all out for the W? I'm gonna say the Norse cover.

Union at South Hardin. Both have their playoff slots locked up. Do coaches rest their studs for the playoffs? Union is a 27 point favorite. Who has the better JV? It's a big spread, and even though I like some of the things SH is doing, from what I have seen out of those coaching staffs, I say Union covers the 27 points.
