#vthsfootball Playoff Predictions

     Normally, this would be the time to do my 5 Things from Week 8 of the Vermont high school football season.  Maybe it would include how Essex showed their dominance early and resilience late against Rutland?  How about Otter Valley defeating Rice and giving Woodstock #1 in D3 after the Wasps' 2OT thriller against Bellows Falls?  What do we make of Hartford's undefeated season in D2?

    Well, I thought I'd do something different...something I hadn't done all year but, since it's postseason time, makes sense to do.  Here are my picks for EVERY playoff game in all 3 divisions.


Division 1

Middlebury over BFA

St. Johnsbury over CVU

Rutland over Mount Anthony

Burr and Burton over Essex


Semifinals

Middlebury over BBA

Rutland over SJA


Final:  Middlebury 28, Rutland 24

Tigers end 11-year title drought with defensive stop late vs. Rutland.


Division 2

Hartford over Mount Mansfield

Lyndon over Spaulding

Colchester over Rice

Fair Haven over U-32


Semifinals

Hartford over Fair Haven

Colchester over Lyndon


Final:  Hartford 31, Colchester 14

Hurricanes complete undefeated season with complete game vs. Lakers


Division 3

Woodstock over Windsor

Bellows Falls over Mill River

Mount Abraham over Springfield

Otter Valley over Fairfax/Lamoille


Semifinals

Woodstock over Otter Valley

Bellows Falls over Mount Abraham


Final:  Bellows Falls 33, Woodstock 22

Terriers get revenge on lone loss and win first state title since 2021
