I like FBA to get past the streaking Mustangs in a high scoring affair. This will likely set up a semifinal matchup with Champagnat in my estimation.

Big time rivalry. This time it's the cliche win-or-go-home variety. @RamsRhsFootball have had a fantastic season as their first round win coupled with reg season wins over Lehigh and Lake Gibson have showed. @VeniceIndianFB has just been a different type of animal all season.
CLASS 7A WEEK 2 PREDICTIONS
(16) Tampa Wharton 21
(12) Lehigh 20

As predicted @Lehigh_football flashed Defense in the win over Gibbs last week as they posted a shutout. Wharton is a force on that side of the ball as well led by Boston College commit Daveon Crouch
CLASS 6A WEEK 3 PLAYOFF PREDICTIONS
(17) Miami Northwestern 27
(4) Naples 31
Note: Numbers in parenthesis represents state RPI ranking in 6A classification
Miami NW showed they are every bit the state power they've always been in a 71-19 rout over FMHS last week. @naplesfootball held a 21-10 lead over Miami Central late in the 3rd qtr last season before bowing out. This much improved Naples team gives up just 4 ppg

@TC_Football was impressive in a mild upset over CDS in walk-off fashion last week. This will be a rematch with @CCCMaraudersFB in which CCC won 38-21. @BPS_Football has been one of the most dominant teams in 3A all season and IMO are very undervalued despite lofty ranking

@NCS_MUSTANGS and @csn_football should be one of the best games played in the state on Friday. The Mustangs sport one of the state's top offenses. While the Seahawks have have gone 17-4 over the last two seasons.
@FBA_Athletics_ ramped up the schedule this season with matchups against 5A (Mass.) Andover, 7A Palmetto Ridge and traditional 3A power Bishop Verot. That will help them be prepared for the rigors of the playoff season.

@VeniceIndianFB simply put continues to roll in this one. @RamsRhsFootball two losses are to #1 and #2 in the state and have a fantastic road win at Lehigh. That level of competition helps put them over the top in this win.
CLASS 7A WEEK 1 PLAYOFF PREDICTIONS
(24) Tampa Gaither 17
(12) Lehigh 20
Note: Numbers in parenthesis represent state RPI ranking in 7A classification
No doubt all eyes will be on @richardyoung239 in this game. Don't overlook the stout D's for both of these squads. Gaither will be able to stack the box on @Lehigh_football. However, I believe Young will peel off a couple and the WR will get involved. That will be the difference.

Area schools have traditionally faltered in the playoffs against their east coast rivals. However I have @DunbarFootball favored and I could see @southfmfootball walking away with a road win. @FMHSAthletics has the athletes and coaching to hang with a "somewhat down" Northwestern

A tough east coast draw for our local squads. @CLHS_Football has to travel to the top ranked school in 5A. @EsteroFB has shown not to be counted out as they have a knack for wearing teams down in the second half.
