Week 8 Picks (Class A)

Could possibly see each other in the playoffs somewhere.

I think he did initially have a transfer status. Schools usually accept transfers requests of school employees kids that reside outside of the district. His mother is a teacher there. I believe they have lived in the district for a few years now.

If true, I suspect it's because they were afraid they might be exposed. 

What's wrong with playing a good team? Sounds like you're saying it's a bad thing

If Pawhuska and Cashion both win their district, they would match up in the semi-finals again.

MaxPreps is not a credible source

Usually eliminates the forfeiting team from district play. Their games are removed from the standings on ossaarankings.com.

Dang, hopefully they'll rebuild and get back to the way they were a few years ago. They've had some studs in the past.

Old Blue's Picks



District A-1

Fairview 42 Mooreland 16

Hooker 35 Texhoma 21

Thomas 21 Merrit 20

BFDC 35 Sayre 12



Game of the week will be Fairview vs Mooreland. I believe Fairview is far ahead of everyone else in the district but their biggest test will comes this Friday. Mooreland has big wins over Pawnee and Woodland...Could they get a win over Fairview and take control of District A-1?



District A-2

Minco 28 Mangum 16

Boone Apache 21 Hobart 8

Walters 21 Carnegie 20

Cordell is off this week.



Game of the week for A2 has to be the Minco/Mangum. I've been wrong about Mangum before and they could take control of what is a pretty open district if anyone wants to be district champs. If Mangum beats Minco and with a win already over BA, they'll control the district.



District A-3

Tonkawa 28 Hinton 16

Watonga 36 NRC 12

OCA 28 Crescent 20

Cashion 46 Ulysess 20



Tonkawa and Hinton should be interesting. Hinton played Cashion close which I believe is a fluke because Hinton is an average to below average football team. Could Hinton pull off the upset and beat Tonkawa? Its possible but unlikely.



District A-4

Ringling 50 Dibble 6

Wayne 35 Elmore City 21

Wynneewood 21 Rush Springs 6

Stratford 21 Healdton 20



Wayne vs Elmore City has to be the Game of the Week for Class A. Two top ten team/top five teams (according to some people) going after it. Unfortunately both are chasing Ringling as everyone is. Could either team give Ringling a challenge or maybe they both beat Ringling and Ringling gets the third in A-4....I don't see it happening.



District A-5

Commerce 26 Fairland 14

OKU 28 Quapaw 26

Ketchum 14 Wyandotte 6

Pawhuska is off.



District A-6

Morrison 34 Pawnee 21

Hominy 28 Woodland 26

Caney Valley 28 Chouteau Mazie 12

Chelsea is off this week.



This district is a tough one. Pawnee is down...blah blah blah...they might be but they have proven this season that they can still be competitive with a win over Hominy. It's a battle for position and with 4 of the teams facing each, things could get interesting.



District A-7

Mounds 21 Stroud 16

Okemah 34 Konawa 0

Wewoka 32 Allen 6

Liberty 28 Savanna 6



This district is one of the less competitive districts and a bunch of people are big on Okemah. I don't see a team challenging Okemah during district play but come playoff time things will start to get interesting for Okemah and the games will be far more competitive.



District A-8

Warner 28 Canadian 6

Porter C. 26 Central Sallisaw 14

Colcord 28 Talihina 16

Gore 15 Hulbert 0 **Forfeit**



Week 7 Prediction - 28-1 (.965)

Overall Prediction - 121-17 (.876)
