With four weeks left in the regular season, our all-for-fun high school football picks competition has finally gotten competitive.
Evan Webeck, a rookie sensation and seasonlong leader, had an off week, opening the door for yours truly and two-time defending champion Mike Lefkow to narrow the deficit.
I went 13-4 in Week 7 to Webeck’s 10-7.
Webeck’s lead is two games over me and six over Lefkow, who went 11-6 in Week 7.
We picked 16 more games this week, including San Ramon Valley-Clayton Valley Charter, Serra-Valley Christian, Burlingame-Terra Vova and Monte Vista-Amador Valley.
Be sure to check out the video as Lefkow and I discuss the ramifications of De La Salle’s win last week at Folsom and recent recruiting news.
If you want just the picks, scroll down to see who we’re taking.
Oh, and please sign up for a digital subscription.
Enjoy.
