NCP Pick'em Week 1 Games

:)@carlmerritt , you may want to note the order of your picks based on confidence ... 10 being the most confident and 1 being the least confident. Scoring is on a point total calculation using summary of points (confidence) assigned. Else, your confidence will be based on the order you are reporting (without confidence applied). And it appears you are ordering your picks based on the list that was presented (not your most confident picks). Just trying to help. Good luck!
Actually didn’t some dipsh!t actually win a week last year not even given confidence points? believe that happened so it might not be a bad strategy. ;)

Predictions for preseason Games

Hyped? Take a look at tape of few years of it for the additions on the hype you mentioned. Regardless Saturday it will be a game. You mentioned Si few times in your posts , I have watched the SI tape on both QBs and looked more like politics playing then talent. Have a Fantastic Friday Night Lights! I'm sure we all will be chatting Saturday Night
I work the chain gang at St. Mary's, and have been for 13 years. I know the weapons that the Rams bring to the field and their philosophy has always been "score, score, score, and catch me if you can!" The Rams are going to put points on the board with their key skilled players a year older playing varsity and from the scouting reports that are out there. The challenge will be can BM keep up with them. We will soon find out.

NCP Pick'em Week 1 Games

My Picks in bold ...

10) Central Catholic at Pleasant Valley
09) Frontier-Bakersfield at Oak Ridge
08) Monterey Trail at Inderkum
07) Long Beach Poly at Folsom (28-17)
06) Manteca at Elk Grove
05) Casa Roble at Placer
04) West Park at Whitney
03) Oakdale at Sonora
02) Escalon at Vacaville
01) Colusa at Colfax

Does the local angle matter for the Valklyries?

So Sabrina Ionescu could be signed by the Valkyries ...

How many more games would you attend at Chase Center because Sabrina played basketball in the East Bay? (This is different than wanting to go to a game because she's a really good player.)
I think it would help with the initial draw at least. And she is really good with marketing that it definitely wouldn't hurt in the beginning

Getting close to Baby Gronk here with the amount of hype going on

WCAL 2024 Football Schedules

Pre-season predictions typically are based on returning talent, coaching expertise, transfers and history. But that's all on paper (or phone screens). Actual games are where the rubber meets the road. They commence soon. Then we'll see. Predictions become last week's blather. As they should.
Again, good to see the predicted top 3 teams are the ones that have the most challenging non-league schedules to prep them for WCAL.
  1. Riordan - @ Mack; @St. Bonaventure; @ Pitt
  2. Serra - @ Folsom; @ DLS; St. John Bosco
  3. St. Francis @ Helix, Mack, @ DLS
