Preseason All-Northern Sec FB Team
It’s all about Sutter this year in the state’s northernmost CIF section. Five Huskies are among those on this year’s preseason all-section squad and they return an exceptional core from team that gave Oakdale a much tougher battle in the CIF NorCal D3-A bowl game than the Mustangs had in the state final. For CIF...
Football State Team Records Updated
All state football team records, some that date back more than 100 years, have now been updated prior to the start of the 2017 season. To see all of the record lists requires a Gold Club membership, but here is a look at some of the highlights in some of the various categories. Note: There […]
FINAL Five-Division State FB Ranks
We really did try to have CIF state champions No. 1 in all five of these divisions, but weren’t going to switch teams in divisions to do it. Once we established which teams were in which of our five divisions based on section playoff divisions it didn’t seem fair to switch them around later on....
Five-Division State FB Rankings
Now that the CIF state bowl games are set, it’s time to start looking at how our traditional five-division state rankings will shape up for this season. We hope all five who end up No. 1 in two weeks will be CIF state champions, but it’s possible in Division IV and Division V that they...
CIF NorCal Bowl Board No. 8
Big move of the week is switching Sanger and Selma from the north to the south and vice-versa and we really liked how it balanced out both boards. Both teams still have to win Central Section titles, however, and Sanger will have to battle a surging team from Ridgeview of Bakersfield. We also forecast where...
CIF NorCal Bowl Board No. 6
The fun part of these boards that it’s possible to run them in different combinations to see how they shape up. This week, we went back to using Bellarmine of San Jose as one of the projected three CCS Open Division champions. Next week, maybe we’ll put Sanger in the south and Bakersfield Christian in...
SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
Daniel Sayre of Seaside earns this week’s NorCal accolade for defense by returning his fifth interception of the season for a TD during a CCS playoff win. Others selected for this week are from Lawndale, Riverside, Mission Viejo, Rohnert Park and Sutter.
CIF NorCal Bowl Board No. 5
You can now lock it in stone that whichever team wins the first CIF North Coast Section Open Division title will be the NorCal team in the Open Division state final. The other major development on this week’s NorCal board is the possibility that a play-in game will be set up in a different division...
Preseason All-Northern Sec FB Team
Pleasant Valley of Chico and Sutter top the charts with five players each on this year’s squad. Pleasant Valley is coming off of one of its greatest seasons ever, but prolific pass-catch combo from Foothill of Palo Cedro could be even tougher to stop.
