I don't know how anyone could pick Beulah over Hillsboro/Central Valley. Especially by the scores that are predicted. HCV has not given up more than 14 points all year and that was to CC when one of the scores was late in the game against #2s.
And you do realize that HCV beat Beulah IN BEULAH by 21-8. The score stayed that low only because Beulah was getting beat up (example: a lineman left the game before halftime on a stretcher) that the Beulah coach told HCV he was going to play his #2s in the second half so he didn't get any more starters injured. HCV decided they had to follow suit so the whole second half turned into a JV scrimmage with running clock and 10 minute quarters. Think about it: drive 4+ hours to end up playing 2 quarters of JV scrimmage.
Have you ever heard of anything so bizarre?
Now I AM NOT saying that Beulah can't win, but based on their previous head-to-head meeting HCV would have to be the favorite. It would be poetic justice if HCV were to get a running clock again, not because the coach threw in the towel but because they lead by 30+.
