Week Two Mississippi High School Football Betting Lines (if this was legal)
Jake Wimberly
Week one was fun - and results of our first ever point spread game predictions are below for Mississippi High School Football.
Like college and the NFL, we love to predict high school football, but what if we applied a value to it this year? Like a sports gaming line.
Now we can’t go to a casino and play high school football, but what if we could?
Using the same data sets I use for the College Football Hour Glass - where we are on year seven of predicting all 129 D1 teams, playing lines, setting lines and more - as well as year two of NFL Hour Glass; let’s try our hand at high school football here.
The first ever High School Football Hour Glass is here. This will be our toughest test yet, due to several unknowns, but we will use our simple criteria here.
Using roster talent, coaching efficiency and staff efficiency and quarterback play I have set lines for TEN football games this week.
Here are the results of week one and week two picks below.
