COC Pick Em Final Results

[sw5890]

We made it through the final week of the regular season with minimal disruption so I'd call that a success. It was a pretty interesting season and I enjoyed having a few more teams up their game this year.

• Branson, Republic and Ozark all seemed improved over last year.
• Willard and Neosho may have slid back a bit. Neosho at one point looked to me like an up and comer but wins have been fewer and far between since the coach went to Republic.
• Joplin was not the same as the last couple years but were still better than many expected. Lost a head scratcher to Willard but otherwise had a pretty solid season. Their game with Ozark where they scored like 35 points in the 4th quarter and almost won was entertaining. Rockhurst is a tough draw for week 1 of districts. I don't see Joplin making it deep this year simply due to their district but I wouldn't completely write them off yet.
• Carthage has had some ups and downs but they have looked very good the last few weeks. Pending an unusual upset, a district championship (at Carthage) vs Webb City could be a dandy. I'm sure Jackson is hoping to get another shot at the Tigers.
• Webb City looked vulnerable the first few weeks but quickly put those rumors to bed. If they beat Carthage then a potential game with Jackson will be highly anticipated.
• Nixa was the most improved team. Although they fell short against Carthage and Webb City I think the future looks promising for the eagles given their relatively young roster and a coach that seems to be stirring up some fresh excitement.

sw5890, thanks for putting in all of the work to do this pick 'em each week.
It was a great year. I'll be rooting for each of the COC teams in the playoffs.

Thanks for another fun year of doing this!

No problem it's been fun. Hopefully Nixa or Joplin will take their district and Carthage or Webb City (but hopefully Carthage ha) represents in Class 5. I think Carl Junction is more of a long shot but I wouldn't rule them out either. I'd love to see them get a piece of the pie now that they are finally out from under the heel of Webb City.
