Final prediction: OAA 12-2-1
Yes, the OAA will win. Yes, the OAA will win big. But will it win 12 of the 15 games? Probably not. But considering the wide gap between many of the teams in the latest USHSHO.com rankings, it's hard to see where the MAC can catch the OAA. Aside from the top five games, the OAA is heavily favored. That doesn't mean there won't be upsets.
Coverage of the event: Between us and our sister paper, The Macomb Daily, we will be covering the six top-seeded games. Some of the coverage will be in our print edition of The Oakland Press. All of it will be online at MIPrepZone. So check back on Saturday night for all our game coverage.
