Southwest Missouri area high school football district championship predictions

SPRINGFIELD — It’s one of the best weekends of high school football in Missouri. The district championship pits some of the state's best teams against each other. The winner heads to the next round of the playoffs, while the loser heads home. After going 4-1 in our picks last week, we're 52-12 overall.

No. 2 Ozark (5-5) at No. 1 Nixa (9-1) Nixa hosts Ozark for the Class 6 District 5 Championship game. The Eagles defeated the Tigers 45-28 on Sept. 25. Ozark has improved greatly since that game. The Tigers have won four of their last five games. Ozark has scored at least 42 points in all four of these wins. Nixa is trying to win its fourth straight district title. The Eagles will be without top offensive weapon Jax Adams for the remainder of the season. But Nixa’s offense, led by quarterback Adam McKnight, is still a fearless bunch. Expect many more carries for Reed Wilson and Josh Ford. Nixa 35, Ozark 28 Republic football: 'Greek God' Baelor Cutbirth emerging as a top

LTE: The Grade Is Not the Cake. It Is the Toothpick.

Dr. Gearl Loden’s recent letter in these pages mentions me by name, which surprised me, since we have never met. For readers now picturing someone seven feet tall with horns: I am five-foot-nine (and a half). I grew up in a small town outside St. Louis, was the first in my family to graduate from college, on a scholarship to Washington University, and began my career teaching in high-poverty schools. A good education changed the course of my life. I have spent the years since working so that every Missouri child gets the same chance.
