Senior Division: So with 4 undefeated team (#2 (#2) CTX Black, #3 (#6) CTX Silver, #4 (#4) Faith Academy and #1 (#1) North Austin) the actual #1 spot is still open. The overall favorites are #4 (#4) Faith Academy and #1 (#1) North Austin. When we look at scoring offense then #1 (#1) North Austin is ranked #1 with 121 points (40.3 points per game) in 3 games. Which if this was a full season would be on track to break the record in points scored for a senior team, which is 292 (36.5 points per game) set by the 2017 Kyle White team. #2 (#2) CTX Black is ranked #2 in points scored with 113 (37.67 points per game). Both teams would be on track to break that 2017 Kyle White record. #4 (#4) Faith Academy is ranked #4 with 96 in points scored (32 points per game) and CTX Silver is ranked #7 with 68 in points scored (22.67 points per game). A quick look at everyone’s defense and points given up. Tied for #1 is#2 (#2) CTX Black and #4 (#4) Faith Academy given up 0 (Zero) points so far this season. If this was a full season they would of tie for 1st place with 2017 Kyle and 2017 Cap City with given 0 (Zero) points in a regular season. #3 (#6) CTX Silver is ranked 2 with 6 points given up and #1 (#1) North Austin is ranked #3 with 7 points. Overall looking at strength of schedule, rankings and liked opponents. I give the edge to #4 (#4) Faith Academy by a slim margin over #1 (#1) North Austin. That week 6 match up should be game of the year type quality.
Junior Division: There are only 2 undefeated teams but this division is wide opened. Looking at this division 4 teams really stand out as potential championship run. #4 (#5) CTX Black, #2 (#2) CTX Silver, #3 (#3) Leander Red and #1 (#4) SAO. With a 3-1 ranking #2 (#2) CTX Silver holds the top spot on scoring offense with 108 (27 points per game). #3 (#3) Leander Red is sitting at #3 with 82 points scored (27.3 points per game). #4 (#5) CTX Black is at #2 with 101 points scored (125.25 points per game) and #1 (#4) SAO is ranked #4 with 79 points scored (26.3 points per game). On the Defense side #3 (#3) Leander Red and #1 (#4) SAO are tied for 1st place given up 0 (Zero) points all season. #4 (#5) CTX Black sits at #2 given up 7 points and #2 (#2) CTX Silver is at #3 given up 26 points. Overall I think if #1 (#4) SAO can survive the CTX gauntlet then they will ride all the way to the championship.
Rookie Division: This division only has 2 teams that I see as favorites. That’s #1 (#2) CTX Stars and #2 (#1) Leander. This division is a round robin this year where everybody plays everybody and #1 (#2) CTX Stars has already beat #2 (#1) Leander in week 2 with a score of 25-13. The rematch should be in the Championship and I see that #2 (#1) Leander has improved as the season goes on while #1 (#2) CTX Stars have stay the same. Now before you yell at me I am looking at scores and opponents record. #1 (#2) CTX Stars don’t see competition until this week and next week. This should show us if they can make a run for the championship. I feel #2 (#1) Leander has the slight edge over #1 (#2) CTX Stars. The rematch, if it happens, should be fun to watch.
Pee Wee Division: No surprise here as #1 (#2) Bastrop and #2(#1) Manor are the favorite to win. I don’t know what truly happen between CTX and Manor, nor do I care to comment on something that should never have happened but I do know (per my sources) that penalties are going to come down on both sides. If one of those is a banned from post season and/or championship game then it’s a no brainer that #1 (#2) Bastrop goes on to win out. If they do end up playing each other in the championship game then hold on to your hats. I know some coaches are upset at some of the action that took place as a player got reject in the first game. If a rematch happens and if no issues that seem to follow Manor (before you jump down my throat, please know there seems to always be issue at Manors games, I’m not passing judgment but I am recognizing it) then I see Manor getting their revenge and having back to back championships.
Rookie Flag:
Championship game Favorites: #1 Bastrop Maroon and #2 Faith Academy
Edge: #2 Faith Academy…Until someone actually beats Faith Academy I have them winning.
Pee Wee Flag:
Championship game Favorites: #1 Manor Red and #2 Kyle
Edge: #1 Manor Red has played tougher competition and should get the win.
