Good picks, but I will take the Jasper Dogs in another major upset.

i watched both games last night.  this is pretty close to an even money game in my opinion.  i won't think of the result as an upset no matter who wins.

Kind of amusing.  Jasper has been unranked all season, but during the season they have beat the following teams that were ranked for at least part of the season:

Livingston out of 4a, Hudson, Huntington, Center, and Silsbee.  Now they get another shot at a ranked team.  It is a tough life when you are a Dog.  >
