This is playoff week #4 for the 2012 Arkansas high school football season. The state titles will be awarded in War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock for the state's largest classifications (5A - 7A).
The play in the lower classification decides next week's participant at WMS. The games for 2A - 4A start at 7:00 pm, Friday, November 30. The state championship game start times are listed with their preview below. Our picks for the winners are in
BOLD.
- Bentonville vs. Fayetteville
- War Memorial Stadium
- Saturday, December 1 @ 6:30 pm
This is a re-match of the 2011 championship that Fayetteville won in a thriller. The Bentonville Tigers have lost just that one game in the last three years. The Tigers defeated the Purple Bulldogs on the road in Week #10, 24-17. We expect another tight game and believe that the Tigers will lift the trophy Saturday night.
- Greenwood vs. Pine Bluff
- War Memorial Stadium
- Saturday, December 1 @ 12:00 pm
The Greenwood Bulldogs make another appearance in War Memorial Stadium - this time as a member of class 6A. The Zebras of Pine Bluff are no stranger to the title game, but it has been a few years since we have seen them take home the crown. The Bulldogs will make the title drought even longer for the Zebras in a high scoring championship game.
- Camden Fairview vs. Batesville
- War Memorial Stadium
- Friday, November 30 @ 7:00 pm
The Batesville Pioneers broke up an anticipated match-up between Pulaski Academy and Camden Fairview with their upset of the Bruins last Friday. The Pioneers are a solid team and should give the Cardinals all they want in this 5A state championship game. We expect Camden Fairview to win a high scoring game, but we won't be shocked if the Pioneers take the trophy back to Northeast Arkansas.
