High School Football Playoffs: Round 2 (And Non Playoff Games)



Last week: 29-17

Season: 168-85

PLAYOFF GAMES
at 7 PM, 11/2 unless otherwise noted


Division 2 South
Barnstable at: Mansfield

Barnstable is hitting their stride, but Mansfield looks like a buzzsaw.

Mansfield, 24-19


Division 3 South
North Attleboro at: Duxbury

Duxbury is long overdue for another Super Bowl, and the Red Rocketeers are just in the way.

Duxbury 21-18


Hingham at: Walpole

It is odd to say "Whitey Bulger would still be alive if they put him in a safer prison, like Walpole."

Walpole, 28-24


Division 4 South
Plymouth South at: Dighton-Rehoboth

Plymouth teams get superpowers in November.

PS, 10-9


Hopkinton at: Milton

I was hoping that Milton would be the road team, so I could use some form of my "if Milton loses, the coach should make them jog home" marathon joke. Hopkinton always gets a marathon joke, just like Carver High always gets a White Shadow joke.

Milton, 20-10


Division 5 South
Canton at: Falmouth High School

Falmouth runs Cape Cod this year.

Falmouth, 17-13


Division 6 South
Dedham at: Old Rochester High School

Dedham goes to the OR.

OR, 13-12


Division 7 South
Cohasset at: Mashpee High School

Mashpee already beat Cohasset once this year. This pits the betting logic of "if they beat them already, they'll beat them again" up against "it's tough to beat the same team twice."

Monster Mash, 28-27


Nantucket at: Abington High School

I'd hate to be taking a ferry ride with the wind I'm hearing outside my office right now.

Abington, 17-14


Division 8 South
Tri-County at: West Bridgewater High School

Westie doesn't care how many Counties they have.

The WB, 20-12



Gm 6: 11/3 12pm
Coyle & Cassidy at: Upper Cape Tech High School

C&C sounds like a mixed drink.

UCT, 10-8


Non Playoff Games

 BC High @ Attleboro

Instead of Boston College High School, there should be a Boston High School College. It would be a great party school.

BCH, 27-24

 Taunton @ Brockton
I'm not really digging Taunton right now.

Brockton, 41-13


 Durfee @ Quincy

Not that happy with Surfer, either...

Capital Q, 37-8


 North Quincy @ Weymouth

Weymouth almost gave up 50 last week.

NQ, 36-7


Fairhaven @ Sandwich

I'll come back to this when I think of a better sandwich joke.

Fairhaven, 13-12


Sharon @ Middleboro

It must suck to lose to a team named after a girl... "Sharon overpowered us."

Middleboro, 10-9


Bishop Stang @ Norwell

Stank is hunting Home Dogs.

Stang, 20-17


 Bishop Feehan @ Whitman Hanson

Feehan lost a game that I picked them to win, but betting is a Trend thing. It's like betting against the Cleveland Browns... you'll lose now and then, but you end up in the black at the end of the year.

BFF, 20-14


 Hull @ South Shore Voc Tech

Halloween is November 2nd.

Hull, 7-6


 Oliver Ames @ Norwood

I wonder what Oliver's mascot is just not badly enough to not look it up.

Norwood, 20-19


 Medfield @ Framingham

Peter McNeely yelling Medfielllllld before the Tyson fight should be isolated on tape and used as the team marches onto the field the way Braun Strowman's bellow is used.

Medfiellllld, 26-7


 Seekonk @ Marthas Vineyard

Seekonk, like Nantucket, should arrive at their game seasick.

MV, 28-10


 Plymouth North @ Nauset

Plymouth should take a Captain John boat to Nauset, anchor just offshore, and have the kids wade ashore like D Day. The Sharks would pick off a few, but the survivors would be fun*king motivated.

PN, 30-21


 Marshfield @ Bridgewater Raynham

I need Marsh Vegas to be weakened before they play Duxbury on Thanksgiving, although they stand a good chance of playing Deluxebury's JV team.

BR, 13-12


 Wareham @ Holbrook

The 'ham tasted victory last week, while Holbrook got smoked by a Voke Tech.

Wareham, 7-6

Atlantis Charter @ Old Colony

I am a former charter school teacher, and I want Atlantis to win very badly... I just want it with my heart, which needs to be turned off when sports betting.

The OC, 24-6

Archbishop Williams @ East Bridgewater

Eastie is looking to stick some Archies.

EB, 14-12


 Dennis Yarmouth @ Hanover

I thought Hangover would go deeper in the playoffs.

D-Y, 21-20


Apponequet @ Cardinal Spellman

When I haven't personally scouted a team, I use odd factors to bet. I once saw a girl from CS play wrestle a girl. She lost, got an immediate rematch, and lost again badly enough for a 10 count. Even WWE villains only demand a 5 count when they knock out an opponent, King Kong Bundy was famous for it. I should probably scout more.

Appo, 10-3



Bourne @ Diman

Bourne gets whipped by a voke, in front of Molliepop, nonetheless.

Diman, 22-21


Carver @ Pembroke

Coach Reeves has Carver out for blood.

Carver High, 14-13


Bristol Plymouth @ Greater New Bedford Voc

GNB looked really good last week.

GNB, 17-9


Case @ Millis

Case got bounced from the tournament one game earlier than I prognosticated.

Case, 24-17


Bellingham @ Cape Cod Tech

4 hour round trip in a bus for a 2 hour game.

CCT, 13-12


Somerset/Berkley @ Dartmouth

It's so coldddd in the D.

SB, 21-16


Norton @ Foxboro

At least one bookie I know is planning a "Which Foxboro team gets to the Super Bowl first, Foxboro High or the Patriots?" prop bet for after Brady/Gronkowski/Bellichick retire.

Foxy, 27-13


 Milford @ New Bedford

New Beige is good at Other Things.

Milford, 7-3


 Stoughton @ Braintree

More brains!

Stoughton, 14-10



Silver Lake @ Rockland

Home dog prevails.

Roicky, 15-13


 Dover Sherborn @ St. John Paul

Never play a Catholic school on All Saints Day.

SJPI, 20-19


 Blue Hills @ South Eastern Voc Tech

BH is on a roll, but SE takes the Dub.

SE, 24-23


 Monomoy @ Randolph

Sharks fare poorly inland.

Randy, 23-21
