I'm looking for there to be at least 2 upsets tonight.

I'm looking for there to be at least 2 upsets tonight.

 

 

Are you speaking vaguely or are there two teams you have in mind?

I'm anxious to see who survives the house that SETH built.

The game with the more intrigue is Central vs Trinity. Both teams are defensive teams but Central has a lot more athleticism and quickness. But they don't have the height to deal with Spalding. Trinity's is bad unless Stafford gets to the middle and finds the open guys. Central can shoot and get to the basket with ease in hopes of getting Spalding to foul. 2 good coaches going at each other but Trinity should win in a close one.

 

For Doss to be a serious contender for the 6th region title, they have to at least make it to the final game of the LIT. I don't see DeSales hurting them tonight. The game for them with be a Saturday morning contest against Manual (who should be East in a good game). If Doss does not make the final LIT game, it is more coaching that talent Or the talent not listening to the coaching.

Here goes my predictions for the rest of the way:

 

Friday:

Doss over Desales (Rematch next Tuesday at Desales will be closer, but Doss too athletic today)

Manual over BE (Manual's D is too much for BE & Sutton can take over when he wants in this one)

Ballard over Eastern (Too many athletes, too much experience--will wear down Eastern, closer than most think though)

Trinity over Central (Coach Bibby will have a good game plan but in the end too much Size & Talent to overcome)

 

Saturday (Morning)

Doss over Manual (Doss has more depth & coming back Sat. Morning is tough, they also have athletes to contain Sutton, close game though)

Ballard over Trinity (Coin Toss--Landed on Ballard--depth could cause Trinity some issues coming back on Sat. morning after late Friday game)

 

Saturday (Night)

Ballard over Doss (Should be an exciting game, athletes everywhere but I'll go with overall talent & coaching experience in this situation as the deciding factor)

PP92 all 4 games could go either way. With Doss being least likely

Tonight:

Desales over Doss (upset special)

Manual over East

Trinity over Central

Ballard over Eastern

 

Semis:

Manual over Desales

Trinity over Ballard

 

Final:

Manual over Trinity

 

LIT MVP: Dwayne Sutton

Tonight:

Desales over Doss (upset special)

Manual over East

Trinity over Central

Ballard over Eastern

 

Semis:

Manual over Desales

Trinity over Ballard

 

Final:

Manual over Trinity

 

LIT MVP: Dwayne Sutton

 

I can see DeSales beating Doss. But having Manual win it all? They will need everyone to step up to help Sutton.

It seems that Central is giving it to Trinity...

 

"@freelancehack: If halftime was to be the wake-up call for Trinity, then it looks like they hit the snooze bar. 2:15 left in the 3Q, Central still up 42-28"

pretty sure some people thought Bullitt East could beat Manual. But Central is about to shock the state.

Central defeats Trinity 69-56 to advance to play Ballard.

7th region is up from grabs this year. For a while, I thought Trinity was a lock. Ballard, Manual, Central, and Trinity looks to make it fun. Especially with different referees doing the games.

Yeah right (the people from B.E )

pretty sure some people thought Bullitt East could beat Manual. But Central is about to shock the state.

I called it right.:banana:
