After posting above I realized that I picked all home teams to win. If I had to guess on an upset, I would go with Skyview over Butte. If its snowy and Skyview can run the ball they might be able to get out of Butte with the W...

#1 in KO Returns
#1 in Punting Average
#1 in Turnover margin...
Glacier is top 2 in every category because they played the weakest schedule in the AA (Flathead, Miss. Sent., Big Sky, Hellgate, Great Falls High) 5 of their wins! They are 3-2 against quality opponents, I see them winning in the first round, but will lose in the second round. Go Dogs!

Glacier played 8 of the same teams Butte did... only exceptions 8-2 West and a bad Senior team.

Any predictions for the first round games tonight? Seems like every game has the potential to go either way.

I shouldn't be this excited for high school football, but I am. Is this only the 2nd time Butte has hosted a playoff game since their last championship(hosted in 2006 as well)?
1 Glacier hosting 8 Capital - I think Glacier wins fairly comfortably, unless Capital gets their #2 QB back. Even if he is back, I think Glacier wins by 10 or more.
2 Butte hosting 7 Skyview - I think Butte wins, but this is going to be a very close game. Skyview is playing very well right now, and their offense is difficult to defend. Neither defense is a strong point, but I think Skyview's defense is better. The only way Skyview wins this is to take away the short passing game. Butte's QB isn't nearly as accurate if he has to hold the ball and throw longer. He is good on the quick short passing game, and his receivers put up a LOT of yards after the catch. Butte's tight end (Dennehy?) could be a big key for the game.
3 CMR hosting 6 West - This would be my other possible upset, but don't think it happens. West had been playing pretty well, but kind of went in the tank last week. Johnson will have CMR ready to go for the playoffs.
4 Helena hosting 5 Bozeman - Helena rolls in this one. Helena and Glacier were the 2 best teams I saw all year. It depends on what QB Bozeman plays. I think Linebarger is better, but the coaching staff seems to like Weyer. Helena needs an upset in the other 2 games to avoid a semi-final game at Glacier.
