Simple contest. You pick the winner of each high school game with the point spread included. The poster who picks the most games correctly wins the contest.
______________________________________________________________________________

Example: Norco is playing Centennial. Centennial is favored by 17 1/2 points. The line will look this way:

Centennial -17 1/2 Norco

If you choose Centennial. They must win by 18 points for you to win.
If you choose Norco. They must keep the game within 17 points for you to win.

Friday night, Centennial beats Norco 34-21. Centennial wins the game by 13 points therefore those that took Centennial get a loss in our contest; those that took Norco get a win.

The poster with the most wins is our Victor.
______________________________________________________________________________

What do you win? STARS. Since there is no money involved, we play for STARS! The poster with the most correct picks, wins that week's STAR.

The poster with the most STARS at the end of the season becomes our CHAMPION.

I doubt that many, since this recruiting machine takes players from all over, as well as multiple transfers. Interesting that Bruce Rollison finally got tired of losing to Bob Ladoceur of De La Salle (0-4 against DLS), so that he and their administration decided to stretch all the rules on recruiting, to the shame of high school football in California.

I would be interested to know if ANY Mater Dei players actually live in Santa Ana, where MD is located.
