Second Round of 5A state playoffs


On Friday, Nov 3, 2017, the Utah State 5A Playoff’s continue.  Here are the upcoming games and what I think about the outcome of these games.

Highland at Corner Canyon

Well, Highland coming off of that 61 points against Wasatch. Highland will be up but Corner Canyon needs to prove something. They need to prove that their undefeated season isn’t a fluke and they need a win. But, Highland is hungry.

Jordan at Skyridge

Skyridge is out to prove something, playing their second playoff game of all time at home. They blanked Skyline.  That is the second time they did this year. Earlier this year they did that to Roy. The only loss on the year came to Springville where they scored 10 points.  Jordan will have their hands full.

Alta at Springville

The last time these two teams meet up Springville came out the winner. This was up at Rice Eccles last year in the Semi-Finals. Springville held them to only 14 points in that game. Alta put up some good numbers this year, 66, 62, 66, 69, 56, 52 they lost four games one game they scored 66 points and that was against Lehi. The question is will Springville hold this powerhouse of scoring to under 20 points? Will the big O line open up holes for the running backs to score some points? This will be a great game.

Woodcross at Lehi

With all the attention that Lehi’s QB is getting this year and the points that they can put up.  Springville held them to only 15 points. Will Woodcross come back and pull off another stunner. Surprisingly the only two losses Lehi had was against Lone Peak and Springville. Woodcross only big loss came at the hands of the Alta. The rest were losses of 15 point or less.

 

So Friday’s games will be interesting.
