Well, week 4 is here, and pictures are starting to take shape in the conference
races.  Last week, I went 12-2 in my picks bringing my season record to 35-13.
Almost all conference games this week, so it will be a light slate again this
week.  So without further ado.

SIAC


Castle 32, Central 13
Reitz 56, Harrison 7
Memorial 17, Bosse 14

Big 8

Gibson Southern 21, Boonville 7
Mt. Vernon 42, Vincennes Lincoln 14
Washington 28, North Daviess 24
Mt. Carmel 45, Princeton 3

PAC

North Posey 28, Southridge 14

WCG

Indianapolis Cathedral 35, Indianapolis Chatard 31

Upset Special
North @ Mater Dei

North and Mater Dei come into this game both with 2-0 records.  North has been a
difficult game in the past for MD, and I don't see this one playing out any
different.  North is trying to get some respect this year, and a big win over
Mater Dei could go a long way in getting it.

North 35, Mater Dei 21

Local game of the week
Heritage Hills @ Jasper

Throw out the records when these two teams get together every year.  This is a
rivalry game, and a hard hitting one at that.  Can HH throw the ball enough to
free up the running game against the Jasper defense?  Will Day be making his
return in this bitter rivalry game?  Who will impose their will this game?

Heritage Hills 21, Jasper 14

State game of the week
Ben Davis @ Warren Central

A lot of people are questioning the pollsters with the placement of BD in the
top 5 in 5A at this point of the season.  Davis has their chance to prove that
they belong this week.  That said, the Warren Central express rolls this week
at home.

Warren Central 42, Ben Davis 14

Week 2 picks


Well, for the opening weekend, going 12-5 is not too bad.  Missing on 4 of 7

WCGOTW

Columbus North 28, Columbus East 14
Ben Davis 24, Penn 14

Local Game of the Week.

Reitz @ Owensboro

When this game was played in 2008, Reitz was coming off of a state title, and
was on a 16 game winning streak, playing with a sophomore quarterback, and a
fairly young team.  Fast forward to 2010, Reitz is coming off of a state title,
and on a 16 game winning streak.  Injuries have forced them to go with a fairly
young team.  Could it be Déjà vu all over again?  Cuda Dimmett will play a huge
role in this game, even if he doesn’t play.

Reitz 28, Owensboro 24

State Game of the Week

Fishers @ Hamilton Southeastern

Two teams that plain do not like one another, this will be the game that
possibly determines who wins the Hoosier Crossroads Conference this year.  Both
teams are highly ranked in the GID, AP, and Coaches polls in 5A.

Hamilton Southeastern 20, Fishers 10

WGOTW
Fort Wayne Dwenger 52, Fort Wayne South 14

Local game of the week
North Posey @ South Spencer (PAC conference game)
Both teams come into the season with aspirations of winning the PAC title this
season.  A loss could be a crushing blow to those dreams with both still having
Heritage Hills on the schedule.  Look for this game to be hard hitting with
everything that is on the line in it, and a potential playoff preview in
sectional 32.

South Spencer 14, North Posey 13

State game of the week
Indianapolis Cathedral @ Carmel
A rematch from the game that Cathedral won 10-7 last season, Cathedral has a lot
of questions that need to be answered about inexperience at key positions, and
how they replace a running back that was lost for the season to an injury.  But
Carmel has questions of their own, mostly how do they replace their star
quarterback from last year, and how will they do under a new head coach.
Defense will be critical in this game.

Carmel 14, Indianapolis Cathedral 7
