Laz, does the so-called "home field advantage" come into play at all for you and your numbers?

Yes, and I do go only by my numbers. Sometimes they are wrong. Really wrong. But they pick high school winners over 80% of the time. As far as this week's games, If I was using my "gut feeling," there would be a couple of changes.  I have a sentimental attachment to Lake Mary, where my son played many years ago. They are really on a roll right now.  Also, I'm not sure about Blountstown and Hawthorne. And I do think there may be at least one surprise. That said, I go with the numbers. There's a lot that goes into them. We'll see.

Alright, I’ll go ahead and contact the Hard Rock about my wager.

LAZ, you said it yourself, you go by your formula. So if that's true, I'm going to miss 3 by my current picks. But I am still flipping that coin to help me figure out my picks.  Thanks for the work you do on the Index.

So it was a combination of incompetence and carelessness. Typical for a the Fit tournament
