Man What a Snooze fest the Pick-em's have been this year for 5th grade! I thought Raider-Nation would have some good breakdowns, but hes to busy trolling us all. EPO Just thought I spice up the 5th grade Forum.
Div 1
Muskogee Green (1-7) @ Bishop Kelley (1-7) (Muskogee) The Roughers have some kids that can play. Battle of the 1-7 teams looking to double there wins this year. Muskogee has the speed to get outside and make big plays happen if they dont shoot themselves in the foot every play. Bishop Kelly has the size but lacking in speed and play makers. I'll take the Gee by 8 20-12
Wagoner (5-3) @ BA Black (3-5) (non-div) (Wagoner) Wagoner is a good football team that is going the right direction. Ba Black is way better then there record shows they have just been beaten up by the big dawgs! Last week showing fo Ba was a bit surprising hopefully they come out ready to play and make this a fun game. Im taking Wagoner 18-12
Union Silver(7-1) @ McAlester (4-4) (Union Silver) The supposedly greatest show on turf rolls in this one by 35! They have incredible team speed that no one has came close to matching all year. "Except the Big Red"" To me there one of the contenders to be in the ship on there side of the bracket. I do see others on that side with the same shot. Edmond and Tyaa both great teams.
South Tulsa (5-3) @ TYAA RED (6-2)***GOTW*** (Tyaa Red) To me both teams have very solid moments. Then you see a lot of shooting themselves in the foot and having no idea how to line up or whats going on. You can see a lot of talent for both teams. Its going to come down to who makes the least mistakes and plays sounds football. I like the coaches for Tyaa a little better, and think they will be ready. 24-13 Tyaa Red
Bixby Red (8-0) @ Jenks Maroon (3-5)(Bixby Red) Honestly im still thinking about that damn 2nd grade game when you got us. They key I see on film with Bixby is that all there kids have great football knowledge and understand how to play football. Real testament to the coaches. That D is on another level. Great outside contain that funnels those players right into there stud. They also have a 4th grade kid playing up at Qb that just leads that team on offense and can really sling the ball. If he was to play in 4th grade I think he would be one of the top 3 kids in the class. Very good kid. And to be honest hes a top kid on the 5th grade team. I could go on but this game wont be close. 35-0 Bixby.
Div 2
Bixby White (5-3) @ Owasso White (6-2)***GOTW*** (Owasso White) Owasso will win this game but it will not be a shut out. Bixby has some talented kids and has some good offense of plays. They have scored on some good teams this year. I just like what O-White is doing more.
Coweta Black(3-5) @ Union Black (1-7) (Coweta Black) have not watched a single play of either team.
Ba Plat (0-8) @ Jenks Silver (7-1) (Jenks Silver) Man does Jenks silver have some big kids on the team!!!! #14 is a workhorse for Jenks. He looked good against Tyaa blue. They just had to many bad snaps and turnovers to really give them a shot at winning. But to be fair it was a downpour. The officials were in rain suits! When I watched the game I was looking for the officials and realized they were in all black rain suit gear!
Jenks Silver really got a tough draw for the playoff this year. But with that being said they have really had a great season. Silver 35-0
TYAA Blue (8-0) @ Hilldale (2-6) (Tyaa Blue) Tyaa Blue D is like Bixby this year on another level. They might not have a flashy O but I think what there doing on O is really going to work well in the playoffs vs some of the teams there playing. Every year people doubt the Bluedawgs. I remember in 2nd grade I though Metro was going to beat them. Metro had the scoreboard shutoff on them. This team has 2 championships and I really think this year there going to be in the finals with Bixby Red! As Coach Washington would say Defense wins championships. 35-0 Tyaa
Div 3
Glenpool (7-1) @ Bixby Blue (4-4)(Glenpool)
Catoosa (1-7) @ BA Orange (1-7) (Catoosa) Catoosa might be the best 1-7 team out there. They can play football but there just undersized and slow. Ill take Catoosa 18-12
Lincoln Christian (4-4) @ Owasso Red (6-2) (Owasso Red) Owasso is really pulling together a nice season and going to make the playoffs. All this talk about D3 being up in the air seems a little much. Owasso Red just has to much speed for LC to contain. #43 is going to be the game changer in this game. I watched him play vs Glenpool and he was moving out there hard kid to tackle. Lincoln Christian has had a great year and those coaches have done a great job with those kids. Its tough when your a small school and take every kid compared to teams that draft. Talent pool is very different. Side note when my wife was pregnant she was going over baby names for a boy, and she was asking me for some ideas. Well I had some of the Lincoln Christian boys playing with me in the sooner classic, and one of those kids name was Hudson so I told my wife Hudson sounds like a good name and she was sold. Thanks Coach Ferris, let your boy know someone was named after him! Owasso 27-6
Pryor (5-2)@ Skiatook (4-4) (non-div) (Skiatook) Skiatook has really surprised me this year. Hats off to that coaching staff heard they were getting some help from the high school coaches. Skiatook 28-13
Sand Springs (6-2) @ Muskogee White (0-7) (Sand Springs) Dont count Sand Springs out of making a run in the playoffs. Last year this team had 3 loses and really should have beat Bixby in the Semi Final game and been in the ship. They just have to find a way to get that offense going. I wouldn't be surprised if they have a new look going into the playoffs. SS 35-0
Div 4
Choctaw Blue (5-2) @ Norman Wolves (5-3) (Norman) Just a guess!
Norman Tigers (0-8) @ Edmond (8-0) (Edmond) This Division is a real snoozer! I believe Edmond is a great team with excellent players and has the talent for another deep run in the playoffs. Just hard to get where there at compared to other teams with them being in this division. They still got all there studs, ready for them to play a game down here so I can see them live. Edmond 35-0
Yukon (1-7) @ Westmoore (6-2) (Westmoore) Did you know Westmoore is in Morre. Westmoore 35-0
Choctaw Gold (3-5) @ Stillwater (4-4) (non-div) (Stillwater) Just a hunch
