The 2012 Arkansas high school football
season was completed last Saturday night. The last weekend of the season saw three new state champions crowned. We correctly picked the winner of all three games, but we tend to think 2 out of 3 them were just pure luck (based on the closeness of the games). In 2A, we predicted a Junction City win in a Friday night "barnburner." We were not disappointed as the Dragons won the title with a 1-point margin of victory. In 3A, we did not believe that there was a clear favorite, so a coin toss gave us Harding Academy as our pick. The 3A title game was a 4-point win for HA in a game that saw the teams put up 93 total points. It was a classic state title shootout. In 4A, the Stuttgart Ricebirds took home the state title with an impressive 3 touchdown victory over the Ozark Hillbillies. The Ricebirds were clearly the better team on Saturday and had just one stumble this season during the Lonoke game in mid-October.
Later in the month, we will have our traditional helmet salute for all the Arkansas state champions for 2012 with schedule results. Thanks for checking in with us during this fantastic 2012 football season.
