Football playoffs - Prediction time - Round 2

Last week I was 16-4 predicting Oakland County's playoff games. I missed Walled Lake Central's win over Lake Orion, Romeo's victory over Troy Athens, South Lyon's defeat of Holly and Lapeer East's win over Avondale.
My prediction of the week for Round 1 was Port Huron 31, Ortonville Brandon 13. The final score was 32-14. Runner-up: Walled Lake Western 27, Milford 20. The final score was 24-20. My Adams 24, Oxford 23 wasn't too far off the Highlanders' actual 26-20 win, either.
