This is not a recording.
Like last week, there just weren’t a whole lot of games that were in doubt. In fact, Cedar Park vs. Lake Belton was the only game that saw more than one picker predict a different winner. That explains why Jack Farrel (Manor ISD), Melvin Jones (Regents), Matt Lorenz (Liberty Hill) and Tyler Ulses (Crockett) ran the table, six other pickers went 7-1 and no one did worse than 6-2. So, a lot of padding the stats and not a lot of movement in the standings.
It should be different this next-to-last week of the regular season. There are a number of coin flip contests, such as Bowie vs. Austin High, East View vs. Rouse and Hutto vs. Vista Ridge, so maybe we’ll see some movement here in Week 10.
With just two weeks left, it still seems to be a three-way breakaway with Farrell, yours truly (Vandegrift) and Jones gaining some separation. See how we all picked below, right after the current standings heading into Week Ten.
