OXFORD at ADAMS: This is a rematch of a 24-10 Highlanders victory over the Wildcats in week two that was in Rochester. Oxford has won six of their last seven games including a 38-28 postseason statement over Clarkston last week. Sal Valcaro had 309 rushing yards and four touchdowns while Brady Carpenter added a 22 yard passing score to Tate Myre. There is a lot to like about the Wildcats. Adams had three rushing touchdowns from Parker Picot along with three rushing scores from Marco DiCresere, Logan Paterra and Griffin Henke in a 42-20 blowout of Lapeer. It’s shaping up to be the veer vs fearless in this game. It should be a fun one to see but we know for sure that an OAA school will be in the regional.

 

MR SANDY DUNES: ADAMS 38, OXFORD 35.

BURNEY: ADAMS 32, OXFORD 30.

COTTER: OXFORD 31, ADAMS 28.

TIM: ADAMS 35, OXFORD 28.

DUNLAP: ADAMS 28, OXFORD 24.

STICK: ADAMS 35, OXFORD 28.

 


Novi Detroit Catholic Central at WEST BLOOMFIELD: This is a very interesting matchup in the Swamp between two schools that know each other well. The Lakers had no issues with Novi winning 39-3 last week but they had a ton self-inflicted mistakes, along with lack of discipline in that game. If West Bloomfield wants to move onto the next round and beyond they need to clean this up in a hurry. The Shamrocks had no problem with Bloomfield Hills winning 51-7 on the road last week. The game had running clock all of the second half.  Novi Detroit Catholic Central was penalized only five times and held the Blackhawks to 15 yards total offense which earned them a 45-0 halftime lead. The Shamrocks don’t usually beat themselves. This should be a tight game between these two teams but the key for the Lakers is discipline. If they can stay discipline and not make too many mistakes they should be fine.

 

MR SANDY DUNES: WEST BLOOMFIELD 27, NOVI DETROIT CATHOLIC CENTRAL 24.

BURNEY: NOVI DETROIT CATHOLIC CENTRAL 28, WEST BLOOMFIELD 24.

COTTER: WEST BLOOMFIELD 34, NOVI DETROIT CATHOLIC CENTRAL 31.

TIM: WEST BLOOMFIELD 28, NOVI DETROIT CATHOLIC CENTRAL 21.

DUNLAP: WEST BLOOMFIELD 27, NOVI DETROIT CATHOLIC CENTRAL 23.

STICK: WEST BLOOMFIELD 28, NOVI DETROIT CATHOLIC CENTRAL 21.
