Week 15: Northeast Indiana GameNight | Game Picks

Another sterling effort last week, missing just one game on the docket. But, boy, what a miss it was – Bishop Luers not only defeated unbeaten Knox, the Knights crushed the Redskins 35-zip at Luersfield. The lesson? Never bet against Luers at home in the playoffs. This week has another intriguing slate of games. Enjoy! Gobble, gobble!

CLASS 6A

WESTFIELD (11-2) vs. BROWNSBURG (13-0): The Bulldogs are playing at another level, though they only beat the Shamrocks by four points earlier this season. No matter; Brownsburg buries it.

SWAMI SAYS: Brownsburg by 14

CLASS 5A

MERRILLVILLE (11-2) vs. NEW PALESTINE (13-0): If the Pirates can score early – maybe on special teams or defense – they’ll hang around. In the end, NP is too darn good. Dragons dominate.

CLASS 4A

BISHOP DWENGER (12-2) vs. INDY RONCALLI (11-3): The Royals (or Rebels?) beat BD 3-zip in Week 1. In the rematch, I’m seeing four quarters of F-U football for the Saints. Then, confession.

CLASS 3A

BISHOP LUERS (9-5) vs. CASCADE (14-0): All of the experts are taking Cascade to clean Luers’ clock. I made that mistake a week ago, and I’m flipping the script in the title tilt. The Upset Special!

CLASS 2A

ANDREAN (12-1) vs. BROWNSTOWN CENTRAL (14-0): Another tradition-rich Catlick power against an upstart from the deep south. I’m taking the niners because I like saying niners. Period.

SWAMI SAYS: Andrean by 2

CLASS 1A

PIONEER (13-1) vs. SOUTH PUTNAM (12-2): Conventional wisdom says go with South Putnam here, but I’ve never been conventional. I’m taking the Panthers by a field goal late in the game.

1) Iowa at Nebraska: The Hawkeyes handle their business in Lincoln as the Cornhuskers gamble late.

2) Indiana at Purdue: The Old Oaken Bucket game renews itself in West Lafayette. GN will be there.

SWAMI SAYS: Indiana by 32

3) Notre Dame at Stanford: I’ll be entering REM sleep by the time this one kicks off. Cardinal crushing.

SWAMI SAYS: Notre Dame by 29

4) Ohio State at Michigan: “The Game” is only a game for about a half before the Buckeyes pull away.

SWAMI SAYS: Ohio State by 13

5) Ball State at Miami: This is basically Ball State’s bowl game, while the RedHawks open up a can.

SWAMI SAYS: Miami by 22

6) Wyoming  at Hawaii: I have a feeling I’ll be enjoying a piece of Banana Cream pie on Butternuts.
