#8 Bullard vs #1 Central: Central has too many weapons

#7 Clovis vs #2 Clovis West:
  CW wins again, I thought Clovis could pull the upset in the regular season I don't think they will now either

#6 Edison vs #3 Buchanan: Buchanan wins this one

#5 Bakersfield vs #4 Liberty:
This is a tough one, like when they played two weeks ago if the Drillers don't make mistakes at the worst possible time they win. They have shown that they can and will shoot themselves in the foot. Keys to this game, run the ball and don't turn it over. If they can put it together the Drillers win.

Central - 49-7 Grizzlies

CW - Good for Clovis to win yesterday. I like when the Cougars are advancing in the playoffs. Won't happen this week. CW 35-14

Buchanan - Run run run right at the Edison defense. Tigers aren't tough enough to bang with the Bears for 4 quarters. Buchanan 28-7.

Bakersfield - I like Golla in a rematch coming off a bye. 27-24 Drillers

#8 Bullard vs #1 Central: Central is too good to fall apart now.

#7 Clovis vs #2 Clovis West:  CW wins going away.

#6 Edison vs #3 Buchanan: Edison is not tough on the D line.  Buchanan will run it down their throats.

#5 Bakersfield vs #4 Liberty:  Drillers win if they establish the run.  The Driller D needs to make Liberty grind out drives and get two turnovers.  Don't give up cheap penalty yards by jumping off sides.  If the O can hold on to the ball the Drillers win a CLOSE one.   I think a big play on special teams may be the determining factor.

#5 Bakersfield[/u][/b] vs #4 Liberty:  1. Drillers win if they establish the run.  The Driller D needs to make Liberty grind out drives and get two turnovers.  2.Don't give up cheap penalty yards by jumping off sides.  If the O can hold on to the ball the Drillers win a CLOSE one.   I think a big play on special teams may be the determining factor.

1. This has been a constant with the Drillers, the OC doesn't seem to see this. When the Drillers run the ball well they are tough to stop, but IMO the OC is more concerned with "out coaching" the other team than just letting his better athletes out play the other team. Against garces they ran the ball well but he felt the need to put the ball in the air time and again.

2. stupid cheap penalties have also been the undoing of the Drillers, they are good for 2 offsides on defense and at least 2 illegal participation/too many men break the huddle calls a game. If they manage to operate the entire game where they do not have 12 men break the huddle one time I will be very surprised.

I'd love for my Knights to beat Central, but they would be hard-pressed to do so even with the improvements/scheme changes they've made over the course of the season. Central is far-and-away the best team in the section, so I'm expecting them to win it all - and if Bullard can't take it I'm rooting for Biggs, who I got to know while he was at Palm and Barstow, to take the title.

All that to say - I expect a closer game than the 44-0 blasting by Central at the outset of the season. the Grizzlies will probably win by 3 or 4 scores. Maybe 38-14? At the least, the experience sets Bullard up well for competing next year. THAT will be a title contender, barring injuries.

Clovis West, Buchanan and Liberty all win as well.

ET- Edison D is the best thing going.. Its not gonna be as easy as some think to run the ball. If they cant run the ball they forsure wont be able to pass. Hope they win for my boy Perry
