What We Learned in Week 7
--It's actually possible to improve despite playing consecutive cellar teams. Subiaco and West Fork allowed a combined 37 points more this week than in the week previous, thanks largely to Dardy and Ozark refocusing themselves the second go-around.

Week 7 Scoring Notes
--Victor Acc. 97.7%, Margin Acc. 13.95%
--Once again, only miss was courtesy of a homer in the bonus game. I'd expect a greater split this week.
--Props to Shoe21 for Week 7's high score, being the only person to (somehow) nail the bonus game.

It's a bit cathartic to keep at your routine with all that life throws at you.

Maybe even more so if I'm sneaky...  8)


Dardanelle @ Booneville (4)
In what is likely the conference title game, expect it to come down to defense.

Dover (28) @ West Fork
More wins are always welcome in Pirate country, especially with a playoff berth to play for next week. Interestingly, they don't seem to prioritize wins at the JH level, where they will not finish over .500 for at least the third straight season. Still, this is fastest Dover has reached 3 losses in the past four seasons (their third loss last year was in Week 10, and in Week 11 the two years previous). So far, though, there is little indication that the Tigers will hand them a fourth.

Ozark (21) @ Pottsville
Youth can be fickle thing in sport, which can be seen between the experiences of these two. Ozark's leading receiver and rusher this season are both sophomores, which is something the Apaches would really have wished for last year. Understating Pottsville's offense is not a good idea, but the Hillbilly offense is even better now than when they hung 48 on them before leaving them to the reserves last season.

Waldron (35) @ Subiaco
Dogs are getting ready to feast in preparation for next week's must-win. Overconfidence could be issue, at least early on. Whatever happens, though, the Trojans are likely overmatched. Never count either team out, though. You might live to regret it.
