Keefer's Picks
Last Week:
16-2
72-23 (.757)
Arbor View is simply too physical up front for Durango..
Arbor View 44, Durango 15
Only question is which running back Arbor View decides to feature.
Arbor View 35, Durango 20
Those Green Valley Gators won’t sneak up on the opposition anymore.
Green Valley 41, Valley 7
The Gators defense is probably the most underrated unit in town.
Green Valley 42, Valley 6
The Bone Game will only be important if Rancho gets competitive. Won't happen this year.
Las Vegas 50, Rancho 13
Watch Out: Wildcats are getting better as the season goes on.
Las Vegas 36, Rancho 8
Canyon Springs starts out strong in defense of its Northeast crown.
Canyon Springs 42, Silverado 19
Pioneers have some defensive playmakers — Tobias Carson and Fabian Leos Baca among that group.
Canyon Springs 28, Silverado 13
Basic’s passing attack, after being held silent last week, returns to its high-scoring ways.
Basic 49, Eldorado 12
Wolves can't disappoint two weeks in a row, can they?
Basic 54, Eldorado 20
Foothill prevails in this high-scoring affair.
Foothill 43, Del Sol 39
Brewer's right: There should be a lot of points in this game.
Foothill 38, Del Sol 30
Liberty won't struggle this year against Coronado.
Liberty 38, Coronado 17
Cougars keep it close against the more-talented Patriots for the second year in a row.
Liberty 30, Coronado 24
Palo Verde shouldn’t be tested again until regular season finale with Arbor View.
Palo Verde 50, Spring Valley 12
Spring Valley's offense will run into problems this week.
Palo Verde 35, Spring Valley 7
After forfeiting previous wins, Shadow Ridge again breaks its double digit losing streak.
Shadow Ridge 32, Sierra Vista 26
Mustangs get their first win of the season again. Makes no sense, I agree.
Shadow Ridge 41, Sierra Vista 32
Does anyone remember the 2006 playoff match-up between these two? Too bad this year won’t be as close.
Gorman 61, Cimarron 12
With or without Nate Starks, Gaels roll over Spartans.
Gorman 63, Cimarron 7
Just like the playoffs the past two years, Centennial will win because of its size and strength up front.
Centennial 29, Desert Oasis 15
Coby Newton runs wild.
Centennial 26, Desert Oasis 18
Upset of the week: Bonanza takes care of Legacy in a surprising result.
Bonanza 43, Legacy 37
Can't see Longhorns losing unless they make more mistakes than a comic-strip klutz.
Legacy 34, Bonanza 21
I have picked against Boulder City every game this year. And lost. Not this week.
Moapa Valley 43, Boulder City 14
An upset isn't out of the question, but I'm not bold enough to pick it.
Moapa Valley 28, Boulder City 15
Clark prevails in a battle of teams searching for their first win.
Clark 23, Western 16
Good to know one of these teams will get their first win.
Clark 30, Western 13
Mojave, just like it did last year, will give Cheyenne fits before coming up short.
Cheyenne 30, Mojave 28
Have to go with an upset every once in a while, even if it's a reach like this one.
Mojave 34, Cheyenne 30
Faith Lutheran’s passing game could be the best in the Division I-A.
Faith Lutheran 40, Pahrump 6
Crusaders are going to pass more than Brewer at the craps table. And find more success, too.
Faith Lutheran 41, Pahrump 13
Desert Pines playing better each week.
Desert Pines 30, Virgin Valley 16
Bulldogs can't stay out of close games. They deserve a few breaks after last week's near-miss against Boulder City.
Virgin Valley 26, Desert Pines 22
The Chaparral Cowboys could be a playoff team this year.
Chaparral 43, Sunrise Mountain 13
Cowboys leave two-game losing streak in the dust.
Chaparral 33, Sunrise Mountain 13

Picks- Last Week 15-2 Season 71-23
Arbor View 35 Durango 18
Should be a lot better football than what we saw last Thursday.
Green Valley 55 Valley 14
The difference between these two is more than just the word "Green"
Las Vegas 40 Rancho 14
Vegas is not a top 10 team, but Rancho is pretty bad and will help Vegas look the part.
Canyon Springs 56 Silverado 7
For those that said 1-3 Palo shouldn't be ranked, watch how 3-1 Silverado only looks good on paper.
Basic 59 Eldorado 14
Basic takes their anger our on the Sundevils. Steven Jackson seems so long ago.
Foothill 35 Del Sol 33
Absolute toss up. Two former SE contenders that have fallen a long way.
Liberty 33 Coronado 14
Liberty shows why they're #2.
Palo Verde 55 Spring Valley 0
Who knows how many of the suspended players are back but it won't matter much if they are.
Shadow Ridge 44 Sierra Vista 20
It's fortunate Shadow Ridge's forfeits were to non-league opponents
Bishop Gorman 63 Cim-Mem 7
Cunningham gets some practice after Anu adds to the highlight reel.
Centennial 45 Desert Oasis 14
Bulldogs shows no one in southwest can will take their #2 spot.
Legacy 40 Bonanza 33
Loser is put in very tough spot to fight for potential #4 in the league.
Clark 21 Western 18
Western has one thing Clark doesn't: a victory. Unfortunately it was by forfeit. Just be glad it's not on TNL. Would love to see Western win this one, kids deserve it.
Cheyenne 35 Mojave 20
Myloe wins the game for Cheyenne, their defense needs to sharpen up before potential state run.
Faith Lutheran 40 Pahrump 14
At least Pahrump can be thankful they're not in the 4A Southwest anymore.
Moapa Valley 30 Boulder City 16
Game of the week.
Virgin Valley 23 Desert Pines 20
Loser is almost sure to have a first round date with Cheyenne.
Chaparral 33 Sunrise Mtn 7
Brewer gets to celebrate as his Cowboys win again
Liberty survived a scare last week and did not look that impressive. I think that game might be closer than everyone thinks. Those two are rivals.
Picks- Last Week 16-1 Season 75-19
Arbor View 49 Durango 20
Green Valley 48 Valley 6
Las Vegas 45 Rancho 8

I think the best games of the week are all in the Division 1A- Moapa at Boulder, Virgin at Desert Pines, and Mojave at Cheyenne. All three of those games will have MAJOR effect on playoff seeding
Last week lost 2 good week.. so here we go
Arbor over Durango
I know I'm late but , this was my pick
Green Valley over Valley
Green Valley will make another good showing
Las Vegas over Rancho
Rancho plays hard but wont matter
Canyon Springs over Silverado
We will see what Silverado is made of
Basic over ElDorado
Basic bounces back
Foothill over Del Sol
What happened to Del Sol, they were supposed to be the next program to start challenging for second place
Liberty over Coronado
Canyon showed that even Liberty can be beat, Coronado is not the team to do it but moving in the right direction
Palo over Spring Valley
Palo is in the groove of things
Shadow over Sierra Vista
This game will be close
Gorman over Cimarron
Gorman by 40 over everyone
Centennial over Desert Oasis
I'm sure Desert Oasis hates Centennial by now
Centennial has beaten Do 2 years in a row in the playoffs and will beat them again
Legacy over Bonanza
Its hard to play after losing to Gorman but I think they are up to it
Moapa over Boulder
How good is Moapa? We will see in this game
Clark over Western
This one may be the most entertaining game of the week. Two even teams. Clark may be a step ahead of Western. Western believes they can win.
Mojave over Cheyenne
After 7 weeks I'm still a homer
Faith Lutheran over Pahrump
Faith's Passing attack will be too much to handle
Virgin Valley over Desert Pines
Is this the game DO wakes up and play to their potential
Chapparral over Sunrise Mountain
Sunrise should have more wins, need to get mean
looks like vegastony was right bout Coronado vs Liberty...Moapa made a statement, Cheyenne who?
