Hunter is the hottest team in the state in 5A, yet they are still overlooked. How is Cottonwood rated higher that the Wolverines, also, no way is LP 14 points better than Hunter

SeaHagg

You were wrong on last weeks predictions, hoping for more of the same.

RE: ANonymous

hahahahah to funny! If lone peak doesnt win by 21 points ill be stunned! Hunter might just get dominated at their own place! we will see tho!

LP 31 Hunter 13

Re:RE ANonymous

I hate to do the math for you, but 31 - 13 is 18(which is less than 21 in case you weren't aware)...so you will be stunned at your own prediction of the Lone Peak and Hunter game.

Parry has a winning record

overall, nobody has predicted better the outcome of high school sports than Parry...I also hate being on the slighted end...but you can't argue with right!

Bonn parent

You were wrong last week, you picked Bountiful, lets hope your right this week! Thanks for sharing your info each week! Go Lakers!

Parry has a winning record but

I think James Edward has kicked Parry's butt about every year. Perhaps go with Edward's Edge for your picks though Parry may be right on the PG one...maybe.

Dixie Fan

The Flyers will prove Parry wrong. Bonneville has a higher rating because of who they've played and won, but Dixie is at home and underrated. They will win.

Edwards?

If im not mistaken, he has picked Hunter to lose the last 3 weeks, and 3 weeks he has been wrong, better yet, i think he always picks hunter to lose, even going back to the 2003 undefeated team he picked them to lose in the quarters, semis, and finals. so hey, keep pickin against hunter!!

Juan Diego

Juan Diego will be state champs this year in 3A. State Champs.

DHS Alum

I still dont understand these ranking... I've been told its all computer but does he change them at all if he thinks the computer numbers are off? I've always enjoyed looking at the numbers just for fun but I put zero stock in them...

Flyers over Lakers

No 'Parry's Edge' in this one, too close to call. I give the edge to Dixie, in Walt Brooks Stadium, in front of their fans and all Region 9 faithful. My prediction is Dixie 32 Bonnevile 17. Now Mr. Parry, if I'm right, you should at least send me a gift certificate to the sports grill of my choice!

there are faithful Laker alumni that live in St. G area that will be at the game
lakers up this one 28-6 victory

Football Fan

The thing about Parry's Power ranking is that they are interesting but it's almost impossible to not get about 75% of the picks right. Half of the teams are going to dominate the other half of the teams - The Elite -vs- the Underdogs. So 50% is a given. The other half of the picks if done by coin toss would yield 50% correct so after the no-brainers you should statistically get 75% of the total correct on pure chance. How hard can it be to pick up the extra 5% or so to have 80% correct predictions?

Flyers over Lakes 2

My prediction DHS 32 BHS 17, ended up DHS 24 BHS 14. If the DHS QB had played the last quarter and a half, I do believe it would have been at least 32.
Hey, Mr. Parry, c'mon, you know I earned that gift certificate!
