Be bold! Pick a HUGE Round 1 upset

Lasalle over Winton Woods . Winton woods pre season favorite to win it all . Some posters said they was untouchable.
 
#13 Dover over #4 Kenston. Dover has been rolling the second half of the season along with #7 JJ Barton. For the most part their schedule was pretty brutal and will not be an easy out.
 
In Region 3 Westerville Central (14) played Pick North (3) tough earlier in the year. North is coming off an emotional loss and may be down. Central played a tough schedule and is battle tested.
WC 'shoulda/coulda' beaten PN is their regular season game, as PN self-destructed on a number of occasions in the red zone. I think that was a wake-up call for PN and they will be ready this time. WC is a better team than their record indicates and the Panthers know it... PN 31-17 this time.

I expect this to happen so I wouldn’t even call it an upset. Winton Woods just isn’t as good as we thought they were going to be.
 
Potential larger seed upsets (Seed #12- #16) I could see happening in Round 1:

#12 Ignatius over #5 Mentor: Ignatius is 1-8 with that one win being over Mentor in Week 2, 16-14.
#12 Springfield over #5 Wayne: Rematch of a Week 4 win for Wayne, 27-22.
#12 Twinsburg over #5 Nordonia: Rematch of Week 6 win for Noronia, 38-31.
#13 Dover over #4 Kenston
#13 Indian Valley over #4 Logan Elm: Indian Valley is favored by Drew Pasteur. Their only three losses were to Dover, St. Clairsville, and Garaway. Quality team.
#12 Madeira over #5 Purcell Marian. Madeira beat Purcell Marina in Week 3, 35-41.
#12 Trimble over #5 Elgin. Trimble is favored by Drew Pasteur. Three of Trimble's losses were to 9-1 teams.
#13 St. Paul over #4 Toronto. St. Paul is favored by Drew Pasteur. Very strong schedule, rich playoff history.
#15 Crestview over #2 Calvert. Should probably be the best matchup of any of the #1 vs. #16 or #2 vs. #15 seeds.
#13 New Bremen over #4 College Prep. New Bremen should be a heavy favorite in this matchup.
#14 St. Henry over #1 Riverside. Riverside is a quality playoff team but St. Henry will be very prepared after that MAC schedule.

Out of all of those games, #13 New Bremen over #4 College Prep is the most likely of the bunch. New Bremen is the better team, better prepared coming from the MAC.
 
CVCA over Chardon D3 Region 9. The Royals are hard to defend and can keep the ball away from you with their ground game.
Chardon Rushing stats by game. First number is yards given up. Second number is yards rushed for.

West G - 13 vs. 247
Tiffin - 67 vs. 450
Avon Lake - 38 vs. 377
St. Francis - 153 vs. 284
Watterson - minus 3 vs. 189
Kenston - 109 vs. 255
South - minus 5 vs. 357
Mayfield - 60 vs. 428
North - 5 vs. 497
Riverside - 77 vs. 302

Not saying that CVCA can't win but they better be really good, really good at running the ball. And since the Hilltoppers have been running a version of CVCA's offense for 40 years, it could be very interesting. In any event, I would guess that it will be a fairly quick game - haha

Correct, it could be also title could say Absurd and my pick would definitely be that. I posted in another thread that CVCA will have to play a perfect game and have some very unChardon like things happen to Chardon to have a chance this week.

That's a very impressive differential. What's the money line on CVCA rushing for 150+ yards this week. 😂

I would like to point out that Chardon had 189 yards vs Watterson on 50 plus carriers! Hilltoppers run defense is immense - no doubt! Selling out though vs run let Tiffin and Watty get over the top -- I'm just saying. cannot have it all. Expect big win for Chardon!
 
Excuse me, but, have you ever see nuns play football? They are savage, because they hit the opposition's knuckles with rulers when in a pileup. And, whenever they hear a clicker, they kneel on the opponent. Don't be dissing the good sisters!

You are correct as usual.
In my decrepit fossil state I forgot those nuns at Sts. Peter and Paul in Y'town.
And they too all had their trusty rulers to discipline heathens & other undesirable serfs.
You didn't dare mess with them. Vicious I tell ya.
Those were the days. Somehow we survived the treachery. 😁
