Pick-It Line: How I seen them
Our Pick-It Line, in every Friday’s paper, is off and running, three weeks into the football season. After a big Week 1 in which I grabbed the early lead, Kris Henry overtook me last week. We have five games that are different this week.
Among them, I’m a little wary of my Sprague pick over South Medford. We’ll find out soon if South’s early schedule was as strong on the field as it appeared on paper. I’m not sure about that yet. And it could be South reloaded rather than is rebuilding after significant personnel losses from last year.
Marshfield over Ashland, this kinda depends on how strong Phoenix turns out to be, in my way of thinking.
Cascade Christian steps up in class against North Valley, and I’ve got the Knights.
I’m putting stock in coach David Boekenoogen at Prospect to end the Cougars’ 20-game losing streak.
I have both Oregon State and Oregon to win home games against ranked opponents. Who knows what you’re going to get from the Ducks at this point. I’m banking on them being a little closer to the top-25 team they were expected to be and Utah, with heavy graduation losses, being overrated with the nation’s longest winning streak the product of other Ute editions. I like the Beavers’ big-play capability and steady play by QB Sean Canfield, but Cincy brings what looks to be a dominant defense. OSU’s ability to keep the Bearcats’ offense in check could be the key.
