After a chalky first round, the Class 3A Lower State teams who are coming off a bye now have a chance to make sure their rest counts.

Rematches and the return of a coach to his former school highlight the second round of the Class 3A Upper State bracket.

Curious to see what @RHHSBearcatsFB with @kaiden_watkins and @JoJo_Brooks_1 can do against @NHSTrojansFB, with @Means2X, @DaylenShankle5, @sw_zane and @TheMalikRatliff. Good cross-city rematch in Round 2.

The first round of the 4A Upper State Playoffs featured a few upsets. Will that be the theme again in Round 2?

After all the byes last week, now it’s time for the Class A playoffs to get fully involved. The left side of the Division I bracket has some intriguing matchups between teams that have been resting up to make a run, and one team already with a playoff win

The Class 2A Lower State second round is going to be all about the ball carriers.

And those charged with stopping them.

Don't believe us? Among these eight teams, there are at least 14 players who have gone over 500 rushing yards this fall.
