2010 Playoffs - Week 2 Prediction Results

On Thursday, we picked the outcome of the 36 playoff games that were played last night.  This morning, we look back and find that we correctly selected the winner of 29 out of the 36 games (80.5%)  If you take away 2A and 3A because we told you we didn't know much about those classification, our record is even better (18/20 or 90%). Here are the results from Arkansas High School football on Friday, November 20, 2010.  Our correct picks are blue and the misses are red.

7A

Fayetteville (34) @ West Memphis (20)

Bryant (7) @ Bentonville (38)

Har-Ber (37) @ Conway (27)

Cabot (7) @ Fort Smith Southside (28)

Officially, the state championship is held in Little Rock two weeks from now. However, most folks in NW Arkansas think that the Bentonville Tigers hosting the Har-Ber Wildcats next Friday will decide the title.

6A

Jacksonville (6) @ Pine Bluff (30)

Van Buren (21) @ El Dorado (48)

Lake Hamilton (63) @ Marion (48)
Texarkana (21) @ Jonesboro (13)

We correctly identified the strength in the south, but underestimated Texarkana.  The semi-final match-ups will be outstanding.

5A

Monticello (7) @ Batesville (27)

Alma (21) @ Camden Fairview (28)

Little Rock Mills (14) @ Greenwood (20)

Greenbriar (24) @ Watson Chapel (47)

A 4 out of 4 performance in 5A.  There were no surprises for us except that the Greenwood Bulldogs were in a game in the 4th quarter. Greenwood will once again be practicing on Thanksgiving (has happened every year but 2009 under Rick Jones).

4A

Pulaski Robinson (14) @ Booneville (9)

Ashdown (27) @ Clinton (19)

Nashville (65) @ Gosnell (27)

Valley View (14) @ Pottsville (18)

Ozark (27) @ Pulaski Academy (43)

Mena (31) @ Dumas (28)

McGehee (7) @ Shiloh Christian (58)

Trumann (21) @ Star City (39)

A perfect prediction week in 4A helped out by Mena's upset over Dumas.  The real contenders dominated. That means, don't let that PA - Ozark score fool you. It was never a close game.

3A

Fountain Lake (30) @ Earle (12)

Fordyce (27) @ Glen Rose (28)

Bald Knob (14) @ Harding Academy (41)
Charleston (22) @ Harrisburg (34)

Greenland (7) @ Mansfield (24)

Riverview (7) @ Rison (39)

Harmony Grove (27) @ Rivercrest (28)

Jessieville (18) @ West Fork (30)

2A

Junction City (8) @ Bearden (27)
Des Arc (13) @ Bigelow (16)

East Pointsett County (28) @ Carlisle (34)

Horatio (15) @ Danville (50)

Strong (26) @ Magazine (34)
Magnet Cove (41) @ McCrory (22)
Mineral Springs (30) @ Parkers Chapel (28) 
Hackett (21) @ Spring Hill  (56)
