Our picks for every IHSAA semifinal game in Iowa high school playoffs

Only two weeks remain in the 2026 Iowa high school football season, with the semifinals this week and s tate championship games next week. The penultimate round of the playoffs runs Wednesday, Nov. 11, through Saturday, Nov. 14, in Cedar Falls. Title games will be held Nov. 19 and 20 at the UNI-Dome. We’re back with another round of predictions this week. Throughout the season, we made educated guesses about who would win the 10 biggest games each week. But for the state semifinals, we're predicting all 14 matchups. We went 61-19 in the regular season, and we went 6-4 in our first set of playoff predictions. In the quarterfinals, we went 7-3, bringing our season-long record to 74-26. Here are our predictions for the Iowa high school football state semifinals . Class 5A Ankeny (9-2) vs. Johnston (10-1), Nov. 13 at 4 p.m. The Hawks' defense gets a lot of credit, but this offense has put up 40-or-more points in four of its last five games. When these two teams met in the regular season, though, Johnston held Ankeny scoreless, and if the Dragons play the same way, they'll find themselves competing for a state championship. Johnston 24, Ankeny

Kirkwood Benton County newsletter features Belle Plaine student

Elle Jacobi, a senior at Belle Plaine High School, was featured in the Kirkwood Benton County winter newsletter this month. According to the newsletter, Jacobi began taking classes at Kirkwood as a high school freshman. Her favorite courses have been U.S. History since 1877, nutrition, microbiology and human anatomy and physiology. “I enjoyed the coursework for my history class and I love science,” Jacobi said in the newsletter. Kirkwood instructors make it possible for students to successfully manage college classes while taking high school classes and participating in other activities, Jacobi said. Professor Sophie Joly made the biggest impact on Jacobi, she said. “Her microbiology class was interesting, and she was a very encouraging teacher. Taking college classes in high school helps students develop strong time management and study skills, Jacobi said. “It also prepares them for life after high school by giving them experience with college-level coursework and allowing them to earn college credits early.”
