Class A: Omaha Creighton Prep (1-2) at Bennington (3-0)
- Sign me up for this one.. I think this is the real "test" for Bennington.. Figure out how to win this one and you're 2 year stint in class A may be a little more eventful than originally thought. Prep, though, 2 losses to MN/WS, not exactly going to just lay down. Something has to give.
Creighton Prep: 27 - Bennington: 24

Class B: Gretna East (2-1) at Waverly (3-0)
- Although, originally, I wanted to do Blair/Skutt (Blair finds a way to win? Maybe they have IT). But I'll stick with this one. Last week I believe I had East over Original; however, I did say I thought they were teams 2-3 behind number 1 Waverly. Here's a bounce back chance.

Waverly: 35 - Gretna East: 20

Class C1: Wahoo (1-2) at Columbus Lakeview (2-1)
- Yes, I'm well-aware, there are multiple 3-0 vs 3-0 teams this week.. But, this one feels like it can make or break these guys.. Wahoo finds a way to win? Does it claw them back into the conversation? Hard to believe Coach Fox doesn't get this young squad better and better each week. On the flip side, Lakeview drops one to cross town rival Scotus last Friday... Does 2 L's in a row break them? (opinion: probably not, they're good).

Columbus Lakeview: 28 - Wahoo: 27

Class C2: Ord (3-0) at Lincoln Lutheran (2-1)
- Not a whole lot going on in C2 this week.. Don't know anything about either but just about the only game that looks like it could be good? I don't know for sure.

Ord: 34 - Lincoln Lutheran: 33

Class D1/D3: Central Valley (3-0) at Sandy Creek (2-1)
- Big game, no real implications, both teams will be competing for, and probably winning, a state championship later this Fall. Speaking of State Titles.. Greeley Wolbach brought all them past champions back last week and stretched the field from endzone to endzone per 1000 yard guy! Impressive. Well, they're adding another one here in a couple of months. We may be witnessing a top 5? top 10? 8-man team all time.. Central Valley is physical, big, talented, and well coached. Sandy Creek are those same things. I believe, and could be completely wrong, that Central Valley does NOT see an offensive system/weapons that the Sealy kid and company bring to the table in their run of the mill D3 schedule. The closest thing they have was probably Wynot, last year, who beat them in the semis.
Sandy Creek: 46 - Central Valley 38

Class D2: Howells-Dodge (3-0) at East Butler (3-0)
- Look, HD is going to win this game... And it'll probably look like just another night for them.. But I think there's something to this EB squad that is coming together, nicely, for them. A game like this has next to no harm on their playoff seeding. They'll get a chance to see how they stack up and, you never know, maybe they pull off the upset??

Howells-Dodge: 48 - East Butler 18

No chance East Butler wins. The 3-0 record comes from three wins over cupcakes. HoDO will absolutely dominate the trenches, and East Butler's defense plays too soft. Howells racks up 300 yards rushing and running clock in the 3rd quarter.

Checking back on this? Obviously having some fun but was surprised to see the result.

Just curious if Howells ever got to that 300 yards rushing since there was a running clock?

Will graciously admit I was wrong. East Butler looked like a different team than they have all year in the second half. HoDo was up 20-0 going into halftime and was doing whatever they wanted. Once Luther got hurt, they seemed to get lost on offense. Kudos to Fencl of East Butler, stepped up and QB'd the spread offense very well.

Will admit I was wrong. I doubted the Tigers, but that 2nd half performance is as good as any I've seen this year. Lot of athleticism and speed on the offensive side of the ball. Would love for them to make me shove it and go win that Shelby, Aquinas, Lourdes stretch at the end of the year.

Watching the 2nd half of that game made it seem like HD had never defended a pass in their lives. Receivers were continually just running free. O line held up just long enough for the qb to get the ball out of his hand. Scored 28 points in the 3rd quarter all while being in the spread every snap.
