LSD'S 3A GAME OF THE WEEK: Week 11 Here are the Final Predictions of 2026 #5 PRCA @ #1 Ben Franklin. Some say this is a meaningless game. I see this more like a Conf. Championship Game. East vs Metro. the outcome will barely move the rankings. So, Have Fun. Prediction: BEN FRANKLIN #18 Blue Ridge @ # 23 Kingman A win here by the Yellowjackets, with some help from a few teams losing (that's expected) will get BR into the sweet 16. The Bulldogs have no sweet dreams. but a win will help @MohaveFBTalk gain ground on me. MAYBE Prediction: BLUE RIDGE LAST CALL: Electa Mea, Optio Mea. #15 Dysart @ #12 River Valley There is no bigger game in 3A this Week. NONE! For the West Title. A Play-off spot. This will be a high scoring game 67-41. Like a 1A game on Steroids. Prediction: RIVER VALLEY Last Week: 2-2 Season: 23-9 **Latin: My Picks, My Choice

Luck for you A.I. believes in science. Or it may have responded with "Pray"

Forgot to mention 2-2 in 2-pt conv. 28 pts total.

@AZGridironClub looks like a medallion to me? 🤔

River Valley Stat Line: #21 Aden Montgomery, 21 car, 346 yds, 4-TDs

Asking A.I. for the scores?

LSD'S MOHAVE COUNTY PREDICTIONS: Week 11 After trying to call an audible. I was reminded who's in Charge. PLAY-OFF GAMES: 1A: superior @ MALC...The Patriots are rested and ready to make Mohave County Proud. 8-Man Proud 2A: DESERT STAR @ veritas prep... It's simple for the Titans, Stop the Run, Run, Run 3A: dysart @ RIVER VALLEY...YES, this is the Dust Devils Home Play-Off Game. Winner wins a long bus ride The Rest of the Games: BLUE RIDGE @ kingman LA JOYA COMM. @ mohave mingus @ LEE WILLIAMS LAKE HAVASU @ somerton Last Week: 4-1 Season: 49-9

Can anyone explain this to me? Beat 8,9,14 Higher SOS than 10,11,12,13,15 Lost to 1,4,5,7 Better/same record as 8,9,10,13,14 Still have to play 6 Is it quality wins? Is it SOS? Is it no bad loses? What's the formula?

LSD'S BOLD PREDICTION: Week 11 The Final BOLD prediction of 2026. #13 Coolidge @ #4 Thatcher The Bears are hoping for a play-off spot. the Eagles are set and could use this week to rest and get some guys healthy for the play-off run. But more Importantly. There is a gentleman in Gila Valley, pulling out what hair he has left. CURSING, that I should up on their doorstep again. Prediction: COOLIDGE Last week: 0-1 Season: 3-5

After Saturdays 2A Play-off ranking discussions. I'm hesitant to bring up more MaxPreps anomalies. But looking at the updated 3A rankings this morning: #10 Payson (5-4) Lost to #12 River Valley (6-3) who lost to # 14 Seton Catholic (2-7) who lost to #16 ALA-Ironwood (5-4) This is what happens when the AIA outsource their responsibilities to a Data Center.

LSD'S 3A TOP TEN: Week 11 This will be my Final Rankings of 2026. 1. Round Valley 2. Ben Franklin 3. PRCA 4. Show Low 5. Thatcher 6. Valley Christian 7. Crismon 8. ALA-Iron 9 ALA-MN 10. Gilbert Christian The AIA Rankings, Powered by MaxPreps, Is now in Control

Your's is one of the few opinions I trust on here. I've followed your Power Points and they're spot on. if you can't trust the NEW AIA Rankings. then we have a problem.

Looks like the AIAs plan of dropping teams down is working.

Sorry, but a top-ranked unbeaten team can’t drop two spots coming off a four-touchdown win over a quality opponent. AIA seriously needs to look at adding a human element to these ratings.

Okay then. I would hate to disappoint the fans.

LSD'S MOHAVE COUNTY PREDICTIONS: Week 11 With playoff games starting. The regular season coming to an end. It's time to go into Play-off mode. So, I'm calling an Audible (hope I'm not dismissed) Knowing that the Coaches tape their podcast on Tuesdays. then broadcast them on Friday. and knowing they must pick against me in order to have any chance now. I'll be posting my Predictions on Wednesday. They won't know mine** & I won't know there's **unless they go back in and edit their selections. They are sneaky that way.

This is a game that Desert Star can win. Regardless, Congratulations Desert Star Titans. in only their second year playing Varsity FB. They crack the top 24 in 2A. and without having an "ALA" in front of their name. but the "Academy" at the end does help.

#23 Desert Star will play #10 Veritas Prep in the 1st round of the 2A Playoffs!
