El Monte OC Brian Tabatabai loves a challenge and loves it when The MID picks against his team.<\/p><\/div>\n

(All Kick-Offs are 7:PM unless otherwise noted)<\/p>\n

Arcadia vs. Alhambra\u00a0 at Moor Field\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Too much going on at Alhambra, and it is too soon to expect a turnaround. The Andrew Policky era gets off to a fast start.<\/p>\n

Arcadia 42 Alhambra 14<\/b><\/p>\n

***<\/b><\/p>\n

El Monte at Baldwin Park\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

The Lions love it when we pick against them, but coming off an 0-10 season it\u2019s hard to jump on the Braves bandwagon…This time we will. BP has something to prove, EM\u2019s starting quarterback will not be back until October.<\/p>\n

Baldwin Park 26 El Monte 22<\/b><\/p>\n

***<\/b><\/p>\n

Los Altos at Arroyo\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

The Knights are going to be a good team, the Conquerors are looking at a deep playoff run for a successful 2013. Good quarterbacks, good lines, Los Altos has a few more home run hitters.<\/p>\n

Los Altos 31 Arroyo 17<\/b><\/p>\n

***<\/b><\/p>\n

Maranatha at Bassett\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Both of these have something to prove. Both of them are coming in shorthanded\/banged up. The Olympians have home field and team that has waited a year for this moment.<\/p>\n

Bassett 20 Maranatha 10<\/b><\/p>\n

***<\/b><\/p>\n

Mayfair at Downey\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

What a fun game. It\u2019s fun just to say Mayfair & Downey. It might not be fun in the trenches, and it might not be fun if the Vikings fail to suffer from a post-title malaise. The Monsoons are going to have a good season, Downey flirting with a dynasty.<\/p>\n

Downey 33 Mayfair 17<\/b><\/p>\n

***<\/b><\/p>\n

Montebello at Diamond Bar\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

If ever a game was a tell-tale of a season it was this one. Are the Oilers really ready for prime time? Are the Brahmas ready to get physical and fulfill what many have expected of them the last two years.<\/p>\n

Montebello 17 Diamond Bar 13<\/b><\/p>\n

***<\/b><\/p>\n

Nogales at Rowland\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

There were certain things you could count on when Eric Dickerson played for the Rams. \u201cDickerson\u2019s going to run for 200 hundred yards and score three touchdowns!\u201d…Avery Duffus is going to run for 200 yards and three touchdowns.<\/p>\n

Rowland 42 Nogales 0\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

***<\/b><\/p>\n

Salesian at Muir\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

What do you think? We\u2019ve learned it is best to bet on Muir late, rather than early. Go with Salesian, but don\u2019t think poorly of John Hardy\u2019s group. They will be ready come October.<\/p>\n

Salesian 35 Muir 14<\/b><\/p>\n

***<\/b><\/p>\n

Valley Christian at Duarte<\/b><\/p>\n

The Falcons need this one. VC has the new coach, Duarte returns Jason Martin and another step of stability so essential to a volatile program.<\/p>\n

Duarte 28 Valley Christian 10<\/b><\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

Blair at Hoover<\/b> at Glendale High School<\/p>\n

Flip a coin. We did.<\/p>\n

Blair 8 Hoover 6<\/b><\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

Covina vs. South Hills <\/b>at Covina District Stadium<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not going to be a bad year for C-Town, it\u2019s just going to be a rough start.<\/p>\n

South Hills 45 Covina 7<\/b><\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

Ganesha at Keppel\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

We go with the team that has the 3,000 yard passer…That would be the Aztecs.<\/p>\n

Keppel 31 Ganesha 7<\/b><\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

Montclair at San Gabriel\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

It could be a long year, but this might be a good opportunity for the Matadors.<\/p>\n

San Gabriel 9 Montclair 6<\/b><\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

Cathedral at La Salle\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

You can\u2019t go 10-0, lose in the first round of the playoffs, and not want some redemption. The Lancers have a chip on their shoulder and it should serve them well. Just not against Cathedral.<\/p>\n

Cathedral 34 La Salle 14<\/b><\/p>\n
