BRACKET OF DEATH: Who will come of out Class 6A Region II Division I?
No. 3 Seed -- Westfield
The Mustangs have run the table beating North Shore and Spring in the regular season. Their defense is nasty only giving up 84 points on the year. Cardell Williams (Tulsa) has had a HUGE senior year with 2,400 yards passing and a 34:2 TD:INT ratio. Anthony Holmes (Virginia) runs the defense up front and coach Matt Meekins has some DBs who can fly around. Conroe and Cain shouldn't be a problem but then it's Rockwall.
...
No. 4 Seed -- Spring
After losing to district-mate Westfield, everyone stopped talking about Spring. Bad idea. Bishop Davenport (Utah State) has thrown for 3,000 yards and he has six WRs with over 250 yards. Yes, six. The Lions' defense has some teeth only giving up 94 points. The Woodlands are a tough, tough first-round opponent and Duncanville is two rounds later.
...
No. 5 Seed -- DeSoto
QB Matthew Allen has thrown for nearly 2,000 yards and 34 scores with five receivers who can go. Their only district loss came to Duncanville and the defense is athletic. They look the part, but can they get all the way to the Regional Final to face Duncanville? VYPE says no.

Cypress Park has a shot in Class 6A DII Region II
Which 5 Teams have a shot at getting out of Class 6A DII Region II?
The Fab 5
No. 1 Seed – Rockwall-Heath
The Hawks are legit at 9-1 only losing 35-34 to Southlake Carroll. They beat Rockwall 79-71 on two overtimes to win the district. Can they stop anyone is the question? Seniors QB Josh Hoover and RB Zach Evans have accounted for over nearly 4,000 yards and 53 touchdowns. The Hawks are positioned to reach State after being in the Regional Finals a year ago. They will take the next step to the Final Four, at least.
…
No. 2 Seed – Garland
The Garland Owls went 10-0 on the season but have not won a playoff game in 10 years. QB Cergio Perez threw for 3,230 yards and 50 scores, while Keyunte King and Jayshon Powers are double-trouble in the backfield. Jordan Hudson has pulled in over 1,000 yards on the year. Cedar Hill will be in Round 2 but don't sleep on the Longhorns because their losses come to Allen, DeSoto, Duncanville and Rockwall.
…
No. 3 Seed – Cypress Park
Cypress Park has probably the most electrifying athlete in Texas in Harold Perkins. The 5-Star could be the best RB and safety in the Lone Star State. QB Ed Dixon is serviceable throwing the ball but the offense is run-oriented. Cameron King, Perkins and Nate Livingston are a lethal backfield. My one concern is depth. Tomball will be a tough game in Week 1, and then it's a collision-course with Rockwall-Heath.
…
No. 4 Seed – Bridgeland
Bridgeland plays Klein Collins in the first-round, which is a tough game. Five-star QB Conner Weigman is back after a leg injury and he is a game-changer. If they can get past Collins, they will reach the Regional Semis. The defense must come up big to keep the Bears within striking distance.
…
No. 5 Seed – Klein Collins
It's been a tale of two seasons. The Tigers went 0-4 vs Atascocita, North Shore, Tompkins and Willis, before running the table going 6-0 in district play. Tucker Parks has stepped in nicely as a sophomore QB. He's the leading passer and rusher on the team. The defense is the calling card. Can they get past the first round? If so, they go to the third round.
