    • Whoever decided to have the biggest game played all year on a Thursday is crazy! If it was Mission Oak, then shame on you. Teams that are winning should get higher priority over teams that are not. It’s that simple.

Back to football…

  • Both offensive lines are very good. The Tribe has RB Kazmeir Allen, QB Nathan Lamb and WR Emoryie Edwards vs Mustangs QB Andre Aguilar and RB Josh Portillo.
  • The X factor is this game is both offenses are peaking at the right time so the X factor is the Mustangs defense. They got smoked!
  • Pag Meter Prediction Tulare Western 38 Tulare Union 35

​Friday Night Lights

Pag Meter predictions are always the toughest in week 1 because you don’t know what each team has but week 11 might be even tougher in rivalry week. There are soooo many even games that are tough to call.

Good luck to all and best wishes to all the seniors on senior night!!

TRAC

  • Clovis (7-3) (2-3) vs Clovis West (7-3) (4-1)
    • Broadcasted on 940 ESPN Radio
    • Pag Meter Line Clovis -3
    • Always one the best games year after year.
    • This year it’s a big seeding game. Whoever wins could be looking at the 4 seed.
    • This is a very interesting game with two very good offenses.
    • The big X factor is the Cougars can run the ball better than the Golden Eagles.
    • The Cougars will focus on the dangerous CW QB Adrian Martinez. The Cougars offense needs to pound the ball with Samir Allen.
    • The Cougars have the edge on the defensive side of the ball.
    • Pag Meter Prediction Clovis 27 Clovis West 24
    • Final Clovis West 41 Clovis 27
    • The Cougars tried everything but could not slow down QB Adrian Martinez or RB Rodney Wright and the CW offense. Martinez went 36-48 for 327 yards with 2 TD’s and scored 2 TD’s. Wright caught a 39 yard TD pass and scored on a 38 yard TD run.
  • Buchanan (6-4) (2-3) vs Clovis North (5-5) (2-3)
    • The Revolution Bowl
    • Pag Meter Line Buchanan -3
    • The big X factor is the Bears are playing much better in the 2nd half compared to the Broncos. The Broncos might be the worst 2nd half team in the valley. CN needs a better game plan other than QB Brent Bailey running people over. Brent is beat up. He can’t do it all. The other X factor is the Bears offensive line is much better right now compared to the Broncos offensive line. The Broncos need a win to get the possible 6 seed. Pag Meter Prediction Buchanan 27 Clovis North 24
    • Final Clovis North 21 Buchanan 14
    • The Broncos got down 14-0 and this week played a great 2nd half in the win.
    • Jordan Ayerza scored on a 2 yard run and Brent Bailey score the last 2 TD’s.

CMAC

  • Bullard (5-5) (3-2) vs Edison (4-6) (4-1)
    • The Crosstown Classic (Edison now leads the series 30-28 since 1959)
    • Pag Meter Line Bullard -1
    • We talk about rivalries….this is a rivalry!! Since 1959, only game is different in the win column.
    • Very rare that this game isn’t for the CMAC championship but you can thank the Sanger Apaches for that.
    • The Knights have the big X factor with senior QB Jack Taylor. The Tigers would be 9-0 if they had Jack Taylor at QB. The Tigers are absolutely loaded with wide receivers but no consistent QB play the last 2 years. It’s just amazing to me with so many outstanding QB’s around the valley but not at Edison where it’s wide receiver university!
    • Matt Johnson has come up with super athlete Jimmy Gray at QB and if he can throw just a little bit the Tigers can beat anybody. If not…….zero chance.
    • This game comes down to the Tigers game plan vs a very good Knights defense but is banged up. No question if the Tigers can throw the ball, they can do some damage against the Knights secondary because the Knights play soooo deep.
    • If the Knights win they are looking at the No 7 seed and Edison probably at the No 10 seed.
    • If Edison Wins they will get the No 8 seed and the Knights maybe a No 10 seed? I just hope that Bullard and Edison don’t have to play each other in the 1st round.
    • Pag Meter Prediction (take the series win total for score) Bullard 29 Edison 28
    • Final Edison 21 Bullard 7
    • Jimmy Gray scored 2 TD’s and Steve Stephens returned a punt for a 54 yard TD.
  • Madera South (2-8) (1-4) at Madera (0-10) (0-5)
    • Madera will not enter the tournament
    • Pag Meter Line Madera South -9
    • The Pag Meter really thought both teams would be much better but both teams have zero defense.
    • The X factor is the Stallions have QB Jonah Johnson and Madera doesn’t.
    • Pag Meter Prediction Madera South 45 Madera 34
    • Final Madera South 49 Madera 35
  • Sanger (10-0) (5-0) at Memorial (5-5) (2-3)
    • Chuck Shidan gets win No 200.
    • (Shidan won one game on a forfeit so if you count forfeits he has 200)
    • Pag Meter Line Sanger -30
    • The X factor is the Panthers defense and can they slow down the Apaches machine?
    • Pag Meter Prediction Sanger 50 Memorial 20
    • Final Sanger 56 Memorial 21
    • The Apaches got up 42-0 before they pulled the starters.

    • Final Selma 48 Kingsburg 14

SOUTHWEST YOSEMITE

  • Liberty (7-2) (4-0) vs Bakersfield (7-2) (5-0)
    • The SWYL Champions and the No 2 seed goes to the Drillers
    • Pag Meter Line Liberty-3
    • The showdown in the south valley! The Patriots are banged up but are pounding the ball and that is big in week 11. This would be the Drillers biggest win of the year because they really don’t have a big win on the schedule.
    • The X factor is the Patriots defense vs the Drillers speedy offense. This will be the best defense that the Drillers have seen all year. We will finally find out if the Drillers are really back? The Drillers might just be the only team that can match up against the Central Grizzlies because nobody else does.
    • Pag Meter Prediction Liberty 38 Bakersfield 35

    • Pag Meter line Garces -10
    • This is a great matchup!
    • The X factor is the defensive side of the ball. Can the Mustangs slow down the Rams speed?
    • The Mustangs need a big game from the passing side of the ball. For the Mustangs to win they also have to pound the ball with Eli’sha Ortiz and wear down the Rams defense. The Rams offense might be too much.
    • Pag Meter Prediction Garces 33 Stockdale 23
    • Final Garces 30 Stockdale 7

    • The Aztecs are the East Sierra Champions
    • Pag Meter Line Farmersville -21
    • The X factor is the Aztecs defense and if it plays a good game then they will be the East Sierra champions. This should be a really good game. The Cougars defense is really good but so is the Aztecs offense.

    • Final Farmersville 38 McFarland 0

    • Pag Meter Line Delano -7

    • There are a couple of X factors in this one.
    • No 1, Hawks LB/RB Christian Baker is out for the year with a torn ACL so can the Hawks play tough without Baker?
    • No 2, In the only loss for the Redskins against Washington Union, the Redskins had 6 turnovers so can the Redskins hold on to the ball?
    • Pag Meter Prediction Chowchilla 40 Liberty Ranchos 27

  • Washington Union (6-4) (3-1) at Kerman (5-5) (1-3)
