Canyon Springs has the better athletes and defense; GV the better offense. Have to score to win.
Green Valley 32, Canyon Springs 23
Gators have one too many weapons for the Pioneers.
Green Valley 26, Canyon Springs 24
Changing of the guard. Desert Pines isn’t afraid, knows it can battle with powerhouse Moapa Valley.
Desert Pines 30, Moapa Valley 27
Pirates will push the Jaguars around. Just like last year.
Moapa Valley 45, Desert Pines 20
Even with Jamal Willis, the best tailback in Bonanza history, the Bengals would struggle scoring.
Gorman 50, Bonanza 0
Bonanza gets shut out for the second straight week.
Gorman 62, Bonanza 0
It’s safe to say Legacy is one of the area’s elite teams this fall.
Legacy 45, Desert Oasis 16
That’s true — the Longhorns are better than Brewer’s No. 8 ranking.
Legacy 35, Desert Oasis 16
Does anyone remember a few years back when Valley upset Las Vegas in a complete shocker? Won’t happen this week.

No recollection or premonition of that ever happening.

The Northwest League is so down it won’t give Palo Verde, Arbor View a chance to improve before the playoffs.

Panthers make it five in a row.
Palo Verde 40, Sierra Vista 14

Shadow Ridge will match Arbor View physically; just not on scoreboard.
Arbor View 31, Shadow Ridge 13
Jacob Speaks might run for 200 yards this week.
Arbor View 46, Shadow Ridge 15
This is potentially the game of the week. I’ll take the team not suffering from the Gorman hangover.

Michael Barnson sparks Spartans’ offense.
Cimarron 27, Centennial 24
Speaking of closely contested games, anyone have a coin? I’ll take the home team.

This is Durango’s last chance at a win.
Durango 30, Spring Valley 28
Silverado preps for big game next week against Green Valley.

Western’s season is already over. And it’s still October.

Virgin Valley locked into the No. 3 seed regardless; needs momentum for the playoffs.

Bulldogs might be disappointed with losing two in a row, but a 7-2 record on the season should make them proud.
Virgin Valley 40, Sunrise Mountain 13
Cheyenne takes care of business, grabs playoff spot.

Hard to imagine Cheyenne missing the playoffs a year after it made a deep run.

Chap closes strong to grab final playoff berth.
