Class 4A second round games

Oh my, the mighty have already fallen. Talking about Glenpool and my 4A state championship pick. Douglass goes on the road and gets the win to give Glenpool back-to-back losses and ends their season that earlier saw them on a 23-game winning streak.

Weatherford at Broken Bow
This game has a lot to play for because I see the winner here moving on to the state championship game. Both teams had convincing wins in the first round. However, I will go with Weatherford and their tougher schedule to win this one.

Douglass at Wagoner
The Trojans were not the only team to go on the road and get a win. Wagoner not only won, but shut-out Jay in the process as 4A-3 lost three of four games.

I am sticking with 4A-1, again, and picking Douglass to move on. Wagoner does not have a quality win this season and Douglass is playing very quality ball this season against a tough schedule.

Oologah at Star Spencer
The Bobcats could not Elk City to go away despite the 11-point win. Elk City should have given Star more of a challenge then Oologah will come Friday in the second round.

Star defeated Glenpool the prior week and are playing well with a bunch of athlete's on the field.

McGuinness at Sallisaw
Perhaps the best match-up in 4A this week. The Irish handled Tecumseh while the Black Diamonds struggled to finish off Collinsville, 31-28.

Having seen the Irish this season with Tharp, Richardson, and Ahamd, I believe the Irish move on to make it an all West state semi-final bracket.
