Lake Travis intercepts with 2:30 left in the game and up 57-43. Beeville has 1 TO. Barring a miracle by Beeville, Dayton will be playing Lake Travis in the Semis next week. Beeville just takes their last TO w/ 1:50 left in game. Travis has a third and 10 play coming up.

It flat out amazes me how someone can add the word computer to their "pick" and have many people think that some kind of science or superior intelligence is involved. The fact of the matter is that computer formulas are "tweaked" or modified every week to get the results the programer wants, which makes them no better than two drunks in a bar debating the next state champion (doesn't matter what week of the season). There are an infinite number of factors that decides who wins a game. The human brain is far superior on some factors, the computer is lightning speed faster on other factors. It is still a guessing game. We are not even a millionith of a fraction of being able to write a computer code that can accurately predict the outcome of a football game. Just like the BCS computer rankings, so-called gurus try to give credibility to their computer rankings, but refuse to publish their code. They claim to not publish their code for fear that someone will steal their ideas, but the truth is they refuse to publish it because it would get shredded in any public debate by the most unintelligent arm-chair quarterbacks. I dare anyone who thinks they have a "good" computer program for predicting football scores (or any sport for that matter) to wrap their code in an application or executable and publish it before the season starts (I promise not to disassemble it). Then we can see how an unmodified code will work. I will say with a 100% confidence that the code will be no better than .600, but probably under .500. That's about the same odds I would give to any person that has an IQ over 80.
