@bick, you made picks already... are you good with the rules so far..., any input? 5 games or 10? 35 point cap on spread? Also there is a POW each week.... you have not made one. Anyone willing to take the lead on this gets my vote for whatever rules he wants. I'm good with what you've got, and made the change to include the POW. Thanks!

OK, I ran a mock Week '0" w/ 5 games, a bit more of a challenge given the parameters but doable. WEEK 0Apple Vally @ Mission Viejo (+1.5) Foothill @ Cypress (+4.5) Newport Harbor @ Yorba Linda (+2.5) San Juan Hills (+33.5) @ Santa Margarita Upland (+1.5) @ La Habra
I tried to pick competitive games on paper with reasonable spreads. Next guy up can pick 3 or 4 TD games if they so choose.
Addressing Trinity point spread disparity, I looked at all games and went with the closet spread above, the others were OLU/JS at 34.5 points and Servite/Edison at 58.5. The SJB/Central Miami game is also 58.5 spread. now that we have intrastate games should those be in the pool?Are you sure that first game is correct? How could Mission Viejo possibly be a 1.5 underdog at home (or even only a 1.5 favorite) to Apple Valley?

Apple Valley is ranked #15 in state, they are led by Michigan Wolverine commit QB Jayden Denegal.

I saw Apple Valley during gun range football in Jan / Feb. Denegal is a real playmaker with his feet and has a cannon for an arm.

I'm confused. Is this a mock trial run, or are these the actual games for this week. In case this is the real thing, here are my picks:
Mission Viejo (+1.5)
Cypress (+4.5)
Newport Harbor (-2.5)
San Juan Hills (+33.5) (POW) La Habra (-1.5)

Its only a mock unless we want 10 games, then I would add 5 more.... but these 5 will remain either way....

So, what's the prognosis? I was going to throw this out for debate, but since FOOTHILL won by 7, it kinda negates what I thought was going to be controversial. Cypress was favored, they loss, and with my mistake I gave them the 4.5 point which they didn't cover either. So verdict is if you had Foothill you get the "W".
