\u00a0They&#8217;re just predictions folks. \u00a0Certainly nothing personal as I have a connection with almost every team in the playoff picture. \u00a0Unfortunately, \u00a0no one wants to see me predict a tie for no other reason other than the fact that ties can&#8217;t happen! \u00a0Just my opinion and in this division, \u00a0a prediction is more about a team being really good than the other team being bad. \u00a0So, no offense should be taken. \u00a0With that being said, \u00a0I predicted three out of the four games in this division right last week. \u00a0Only Pasadena beating PPO kept me away from perfection. \u00a0There were no upsets which is not usual. \u00a0Things get hot and heavy this week with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line so here&#8217;s how I see it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(#1 ) Weston 16 \u00a0 (#4) \u00a0Pasadena 6<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Oh sure I could go wild here and pick Weston to lose but why? \u00a0The Warriors line up every week looking like a team that should and could be beat but for 38 out of 39 weeks that has not been the case. \u00a0Weston has perfected the little things and have allowed the big things to take care of themselves. \u00a0Running, blocking and tackling are their specialty and they do it at a level higher than anyone else. \u00a0Pasadena may be the most gritty, hard nosed team in this division and if I ever needed to go collect some money, \u00a0I would take these guys with me. \u00a0However, \u00a0we are talking football and you can&#8217;t argue with Weston&#8217;s history and ability to win the big game.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(#3) \u00a0Cooper City \u00a020 \u00a0(#2) \u00a0West Pines 14<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These two teams met in week eight of the regular season with West Pines winning in overtime when an extra point attempt by Cooper City hit the uprights and fell into the end zone. \u00a0West Pines also withstood an opening drive by Cooper City that died inside the 10 yard line. \u00a0 Since that game, \u00a0West Pines has not really been the same. \u00a0They struggled the next week against a bad Northeast team, \u00a0lost to Weston two weeks later and had all kinds of problems against Sunrise last week. \u00a0Cooper City will be well motivated for the rematch and with two teams so evenly matched, \u00a0I like the loser of the first matchup to get their revenge.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026 \u2026\u2026\u2026. \u2026\u2026\u2026.. \u2026\u2026\u2026.. \u2026\u2026\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>Let the insults reign! \u00a0I love the passion of youth football in South Florida!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s that time again. \u00a0Predictions for the games in the most exciting division of the American Youth Football<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":44,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[654,643,653,652,651,644],"class_list":["post-2093","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-youth-football","tag-american-youth-football-league","tag-ayfl","tag-cooper-city-cowboys","tag-pasadena-panthers","tag-west-pines-wildcats","tag-weston-warriors"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gridironstuds.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2093","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gridironstuds.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gridironstuds.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gridironstuds.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/44"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gridironstuds.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2093"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/gridironstuds.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2093\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gridironstuds.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2093"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gridironstuds.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2093"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gridironstuds.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2093"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
