4A 6th District went undefeated over the weekend and I think that trend will mostly continue.
Bonneville gets its second "Ridge" in a row. This time the W will come against Canyon Ridge. Bonneville by 2 TD's
Blackfoot takes on Star Valley. Star valley goes 0-2 vs Idaho and loses to Blackfoot by 7.
Hillcrest has a huge challenge vs Madison. This time the 'Cats from the north beat the Knights. Madison by 10 points
IF vs Century will be the best match up for the week. IF coming off the big win vs Lewiston and Century licking their wounds from Orem. I'll take IF in a close one. IF will have 2 wins by a total of 2 points.
Shelley vs Rigby. The Potatoes will have their hands full for this one. Rigby is tough and physical and will wear the Russets down. Rigby by 17.
Skyline takes it to Thunder Ridge and whoops up on the mighty Titans unless they bring Denzel Washington out of retirement. Skyline wins by as much as they want.
Bonneville looked impressive against Thunder Ridge last week, and I think that momentum carries over to this week. Chalk up win number 2 for the Bees this week
Thought I'd see a bit more out of the Braves at the Rumble who went 10-1 last year. Blackfoot in a tight one on the road over Star Valley.
Hillcrest and Madison may be the game of the week in my books. I'm looking for a high scoring affair, and I think Madison pulls away late at home.
IF showed a lot making the trip to Lewiston and getting a W. This game hinges on whether or not Century can rebound from that beat down at the Dome. I think they rebound well, but not enough to get the win on the road. I'll take Idaho Falls by a FG.
Rigby gave away that game late against CDA, and that experience will help Rigby later in the season. Shelley won't be able to keep this one close in the second half...Rigby
I thought Thunder Ridge would get their lone win of the season last week, but Bonneville had other plans. Can't see Skyline dropping this one unless they get lost on the way to stadium Friday. Skyline, and it won't be close.
Bonneville over Canyon Ridge in a close game. I think Canyon Ridge is getting better over the years though.
Blakfoot over Star Valley. Idaho wins over Wyoming football any day.
Idaho Falls over Century. Century barely snuck out a win against Idaho Falls last year. Though they did the Tigers a favor and I.F. played a scrappy Lakeland game in the first round of the playoffs. I think we can expect the same kind of game this year and it should be a good game.
Madison in a close game against Hillcrest. Madison is good but I'm not sold on State Title good.
Rigby over Shelley. Still can't believe they lost against CDA with that cushy lead.
And ugh, Grizzlies over the Titans. Not even close.
Canyon Ridge was blown out by a mid-tier Vallivue team. Bonneville cruises by 15.
Blackfoot might not be the powerhouse they used to be, but they're better than Star Valley. Broncos by 10.
Hillcrest looked impressive against Star Valley. Madison did as expected and blewout Lake City. This should be a fun game with Madison pulling away late to win by 2 touchdowns.
IF vs Century- This game hinges on how well Century responds to last week's beatdown vs Orem. If they can put it behind them, this could be a fun game. I think IF is the better team though, and wins by 7.
Shelley vs Rigby- Woulda coulda shoulda. Rigby had CDA on the ropes, but couldn't finish the deal. Shelley isn't CDA and Rigby rolls by 20. On a side note, props to Rigby for scheduling Washington power Eastside Catholic in a few weeks.
Skyline vs Thunder Ridge- Thunder Ridge lost by 41 to Bonneville. When was the last time Bonneville was relevant? Skyline's team speed will be too much. This one gets ugly in a hurry. Grizz by 55.
Idaho Falls should be interesting to watch this week. I saw some of the web cast and they were down by quite a few in the 4th but showed character and came back to win. It will be pivotal for I.F. to win this game because the week after they have a conference game against Hillcrest at Thunder. They have a breather the week after against TR before the big EB.

HaHa that's awesome. Sounds like great minds think alike. I'll be pulling for Coach Hobson and the Diamondbacks but give the nod to IF because of home field advantage.
Idaho Falls and home advantage aren't even a thing anymore. I think both teams were evenly matched, but the Tigers shot themselves in the foot too many times tonight. It was a very good game but I.F. wasn't able to play all 4 quarters without being riddled with penalties. I think if they can eliminate this issue, they could go places. Until then, it's hard luck Tigers.
It sounds like the Century vs. IF game was a fun one to watch! I will be interested to see how it all plays out.
Best game I have seen in a while. Idaho Falls had a chance to get the ball back in the final minute and a half, but they blew it with an illegal formation penalty. Let's hope they can try to clean up the mistakes. I think their biggest weakness is defense is struggling against the pass. Everything else seems pretty awesome.
