It's that time in the season where a lot of us high school football pundits take a look at where teams might be when the playoffs roll around. Our friends at 5A Texas Football have posted their early playoff predictions, and there's a lot of good stuff out there. Of course, things can change from week to week until Nov. 8, but here's what I see that stands out in the predictions in teams from the Houston area:
1. The top part of Div. I Reg. III is super strong: Cinco Ranch, Eisenhower, North Shore and Hightower. All four of those teams could face each other in the area round (Cinco vs. Ike, NS vs H-Tower) and in the reg. semis. The survivor then would more than likely face Pearland in the reg. final.
2. Feel free to flame me on this, but I think Elkins could end up in the Div II Reg. III final. Why? I feel the Knights can get by Dickinson, Lee and La Porte, and have a shot against either Mayde Creek or Strake Jesuit.
3. We might finally see Katy vs. West Brook in the reg. semis if everything holds. I feel Katy can get by Stratford and Humble with ease, while the Bruins should take out South Houston and Clear Brook.
4. We could see a rematch of a fun, high-scoring game between Klein Oak and Cy Creek in the second round.
5. The Woodlands. Spring Westfield. First round. Wow.
6. Cy Ridge could face Lufkin in the second round. That should be real entertaining.
What do you think about the predictions, and what do you think about my thoughts?
