The Games - 2016 Week 1

#37 6A Northside Brennan @ #34 6A San Antonio Reagan

Reagan by 4 points

Home field advantage is the only big difference here. The Rattler Nation will be electric.

SA Reagan 57% Northside Brennan 43%

FINAL: San Antonio Reagan 13, Northside Brennan 10

#43 6A Dallas Jesuit @ #6 6A Desoto

Desoto by 7

FINAL: DeSoto 47, Dallas Jesuit 13

#98 5A Elgin @ #194 6A Killeen Harker Heights

Elgin by 1

#229 6A La Joya @ #164 5A Rio Grande City

RGC by 1

FINAL: Rio Grande City 12, La Joya 7

#103 6A Katy Seven Lakes @ #140 6A Houston Memorial

Seven Lakes by 1

FINAL: Katy Seven Lakes 10, Houston Memorial 7

#77 5A Frisco Independence @ #250 5A Frisco Reedy

The Star will be home to the first victory of the season for Independence

Independence by 21

Lovington NM @ #70 4A DII Denver City

Knowing absolutely nothing about Lovington, NM football and even with Denver City being a middle of the road 4A team, I have to go with Texas.

FINAL: Denver City 38, Lovington, New Mexico 21

#22 4A DI Stephenville @ #66 5A Cleburne

Cleburne will be trying for their 600th All-Time Win

Stephenville by 1

FINAL: Cleburne 66, Stephenville 40

Hoover Alabama @ #8 6A Allen

Allen will be going for their 400th all-time win

A few years back this would have been a better matchup but even Hoover at their best was not competitive against the best in Texas. There is a lot of talk about Allen being weaker without E.J. Ndoma (who transferred to the Death Star called IMG Academy) but that just makes it an interesting matchup.

Allen 93% - Hoover 7%

FINAL: Allen 25, Hoover, Alabama 7

Union Oklahoma @ #7 6A Southlake Carroll

Southlake Carroll will be going for their 500th all-time win

Let me just say, "Texas forever!" If Oklahoma football could compete against Texas, they wouldn't have needed to raid our players for the OU National Championship wins.

FINAL: Union , Oklahoma 21, Southlake Carroll 10

#14 6A The Woodlands @ #54 6A Cypress Fairbanks

Cy Fair is a good team but there is something special about a head football coach who has his son in his Senior year playing QB. Add that to the fact that The Woodlands is traditionally a team that starts fast in the season and you have a Highlanders win.

The Woodlands by 2 - I am expecting a close defensive battle just like last years 28-7 win by The Woodlands. The Highlanders lead this series 4-1 since 2002. Their 2002 game was a Bi-District game that The Woodlands won 21-14

FINAL: The Woodlands 23, Cypress Fairbanks 20

#15 4A DII Graham @ #31 4A DI Sanger

Sanger by 2

FINAL: Sanger 45, Graham 7

#22 3A DI Hallettsville @ #40 3A DII Schulenburg

Hallettsville by 1

FINAL: Hallettsville 45, Schulenburg 0

#31 6A Abilene @ #25 6A San Angelo Central
Abilene will be going for their 675th all-time win
Abilene leads this series 44-42-5 all-time vs. Central

These two are now in separate districts and both are expected to win theirs. Last year Abilene surprised a Central team that a lot of folks thought were better with a 31-24 victory. This year, San Angelo Central gets revenge.

Central by 5 points

Abilene 54% Central 46%

FINAL: San Angelo Central 63, Abilene 26

#2 3A DII Canadian @ #35 4A DII Bushland

Canadian by 1

Really Mike? 1 point? How soon they forget.

FINAL: Bushland 38, Canadian 35

#14 4A DII Pittsburg @ #45 4A DI Crandall

Pittsburg by 1

#35 6A Odessa Permian @ #26 6A Leander Vandegrift

Vandegrift will be trying for their 50th All-Time Wins

Vandegrift by 4

Odessa Permian 58% Leander Vandegrift 42%

FINAL: Odessa Permian 21, Leander Vandegrift 20

#41 6A Waco Hewitt Midway @ #3 5A Cedar Park

FINAL : Cedar Park 43, Waco Hewitt Midway 13

#91 5A Gregory-Portland @ #23 4A DI El Campo

#2 3A DI Brock vs. #21 2A DI Stamford

FINAL: Brock 52, Stamford 0

#86 5A Waco University @ #39 5A Austin LBJ

LBJ by 8

#120 5A Forney@ #216 6A Richardson Berkner

Forney by 1

FINAL : Forney 42, Richardson Berkner 10

#131 6A Pflugerville @ #88 6A Austin Bowie

Bowie by 8

FINAL: Austin Bowie 7, Pflugerville 0

#8 5A Temple @ #44 6A Belton

The top of a lower class is usually much stronger than the middle of an upper class. This will be a tight one because Belton is still ranked pretty high in 6A and they have home field advantage.

Temple by 1 This will be a must watch game

Temple 86% - Belton 14%

FINAL: Temple 28, Belton 20

#23 6A Fort Bend Ridge Point @ #100 6A Humble Kingwood

Ridge Point by 5

This is where computer prediction models break down. Ridge Point is much better than a 5 point favorite,

FINAL: Fort Bend Ridge Point 31, Humble Kingwood 10

#245 5A Houston Wisdom @ #153 5A Tomball

Tomball by 13

This is a political pick as much as anything, I just can't get behind teams renaming because of political correctness.

FINAL: Tomball 53, Houston Wisdom 0

#224 6A Northside Clark @ #125 6A San Antonio Churchill

Churchill is 18-15-2 2-1 playoffs all-time vs. Northside Clark in the Gucci Bowl

Churchill by 13

Valley by 1

FINAL: Medina Valley 22, Eagle Pass 20

#16 6A Pearland @ #75 6A Clear Springs

Pearland by 3 points (closer game than most expect)

FINAL: Pearland 28, Clear Springs 24

#61 6A Edinburg Vela @ #29 5A Victoria East

FINAL: Edinburg Vela 63, Victoria East 62

#69 4A DII Sweeny @ #57 4A DI West Columbia

FINAL : Denton Guyer 55, Mansfield Lake Ridge 35

#32 6A Longview @ #40 6A Lufkin

Longview leads this series 38-35-4; 5-4 playoffs all time vs. Lufkin

Lufkin by 2

Going to college at SFA, these two programs are both very dear to me. Rankings mean nothing when they meet and I keep going back and forth on who to pick. I am going to weeny out and just pick "great game - must see!"

Longview 51% Lufkin 49%

FINAL: Lufkin 35, Longview 24

#18 6A Spring Westfield @ #24 6A Houston Lamar

Westfield will be playing in their 400th All-Time game

Lamar by 2

FINAL: Houston Lamar 38, Spring Westfield 28

#2 6A Katy @ #1 6A Austin Westlake

Be sure to check out the video interviews with Coach Gary Joseph and DC Matt McDaniel

Westlake has a couple things going for them in this matchup. 1 - Katy spends much of the pre-district figuring out who is the best player at each position. Because of that, they don't always go "all in" for a game that really has no bearing on the team's success. Coach Joseph has a season plan that outweighs his game plan. As it is hard to beat the same team twice and likely the two will meet again in the postseason, better to learn a few things this time and pull out the big guns when in the playoffs. 2 - Coach Todd Dodge too is a brilliant tactician and his star QB Sam Ehlinger a brilliant talent. The electricity in the stadium will be the equivalent of a title fight. The fans may just "will" the team to victory.

Westlake by 4 points (home field advantage and they are our #1 team

Katy 64% - Westlake 36%

FINAL: Austin Westlake 32, Katy 29

#15 6A Converse Judson @ #3 6A Austin Lake Travis

Lake Travis by 5 points

FINAL: Converse Judson 35, Austin Lake Travis 28

#2 5A Denton Ryan @ #14 5A Lancaster

Ryan by 1

FINAL: Denton Ryan 35, Lancaster 23

#5 5A Crosby @ #6 5A Manvel

Manvel by 2 This is going to be a great one!!

Manvel 74% Crosby 26%

FINAL: Manvel 35, Crosby 21

#142 6A Buda Hays Consolidated @ #161 5A Georgetown East View
Buda will be playing for their 325th all-time win

Yes, this is a homer pick. I live less than a mile from the stadium and my boy is a RB on the varsity. But even if that weren't the case, I think Hays Consolidated has the defense to keep this game close and come out with a road victory.

Chris has always been a homer. East View upsets Buda by 1

Hays 61% - East View 39%

FINAL: Hays Consolidated 26, Georgetown East View 18

#33 5A Texas City @ #36 6A Friendswood

#6 3A DI Franklin @ #6 4A DI Navasota

Navasota by 4

#6 4A DII La Grange @ #11 4A DI Liberty Hill

Liberty Hill by 2

GAME CANCELLED

#9 4A DII Giddings @ #3 4A DII Geronimo Navarro
