In EVERY round of the 2020 2A playoffs to date, there has been at least one huge upset - Perry out in round one, Cascia out in round two, and now Millwood out in round three. Which favorite(s) might go down this week?
-Marlow at Metro – This is not the contrast in styles like last week's Patriots' game, as the Outlaws have no qualms grinding in the dirt or throwing to spots & downfield. Looking sharp in those Penn State-ish uniforms, can Marlow's D slow down the dynamic Metro O? Could Marlow's effective kicking game be the difference for a second consecutive week?...
-Washington at Adair – Mirror images beyond the mascots. It's the first true playoff test for the green Warriors, who will feel nice and cozy at home with their typical potent offense. Meanwhile, the red Warriors, provers of themselves again with last week's triumph over a different green giant, come barreling into town. Hard to argue the other games will have more intrigue than this one...
-OCS at Eufaula - Big plays on Ironheads' O, combined with a blitzing pass rush, led to a convincing victory over Victory, & now they welcome the still unheralded Saints, who have shown the heavenly knack to just hang around and win...
-Frederick at Beggs - Bombers appear to have exorcised themselves of the Davis game demons and flown through their first two opponents, now to face yet another set of Demons on the long haul to Okmulgee County. Of all teams still playing in the state, Beggs is likely the most thankful over the holiday weekend for winning the home field coin toss.
