Big Games in Memphis, Play Off Edition - Round 1 Games

[kwc]

First let me say thanks to everyone who participated in the 2012 regular season 'Big Games in Memphis' prognostication contests. As I type these words I believe that tuskegee21 is putting the finishing touches on last week's tallies. I'm not a rocket scientist but I don't have to be to say congratulations to fourthree for being the 2012 'Big Games in Memphis' regular season champion. The question remains ... can he produce the goods in the post season?

 

Welcome one and all to the 2012 play-off edition for Big Games in Memphis. Round one of the TSSAA high school football play-offs and we will be looking at all things Memphis-area related. I've cut and paste the list of games from the CA to use as our selection of games. I plan to do this throughout the play-offs as long as there are Memphis-area teams still playing. So, therefore, with no further adieu, I give you ...

kwc - your support of local schools is admirable, but St. Benedict over McCallie??? Won't be close. McCallie is much better and are playing at home, where the refs are very friendly to the Blue Tornadoes.

Oh ... goodness gracious pea picking molly owlbooster! I don't have a running knowledge of D2 schools. All I know is what happens locally. I saw a 4 seed vs. a 5 seed where St. Benedict was 4- 5 on the season and McCallie was 4-5 as well. I know that St. Benedict has Mr. Jordan Wilkins running the ball. I figure he's good enough to get at least 150 yards and they pull out a win. All of this other stuff you mention is news to me.

 

LOLOLOLOL ... Give me a break! ...

 

 

Hmmm ... now that I think about it, maybe I should go change my pick? ....
