Copied this from the Bakersfield paper.........
D-II
No. 8 Garces (4-7) at No. 1 Tulare Union (10-0)
Maybe this whole strength of schedule thing does work out. Garces, which was just 3-7 in the regular season, opened postseason play with a 45-0 rout over visiting Visalia-Redwood. Isaiah Bell and Nick Lopez both had interceptions while quarterback Joseph Campbell threw for two scores and ran for another as the Rams ran for 229 yards in the victory over the Rangers. It was a very impressive win for the Rams, but, oh boy, here comes The Tribe once again. With just eight teams in the D-II bracket last season, Garces beat Frontier in the quarterfinals before losing to Tulare Union (defending D-II section champions) 42-12. While Kazmier Allen and his 3,336 yards and national-record 72 touchdowns are now at UCLA, the defense for Tulare Union has taken center stage. The Tribe has outscored opponents 482-70, including five shutouts. Not to mention the fact that Tulare Union’s senior quarterback Nathan Lamb has thrown for 3,263 yards and 40 touchdowns. With that said, if the Rams can’t get anything going against one of the stingier defenses in the section, it’s going to be a repeat of last season.
Trevor’s pick: Tulare Union 35, Garces 7
Josh’s pick: Tulare Union 56, Garces 14
