For those who may not have noticed prior to last week, the football state playoffs for each classification outside of the 1AD1 ranks are just a week away. In some areas of Idaho this past weekend we saw snow, heavy rain and of course, even clear skies and sunshine at some locations. That's usually a pretty good indicator that we are about ready for some playoff football.
As we get set for the final week of the regular season for the 2A-5A and 1AD2 classifications, here are some of the big matchups that will shape the playoff picture in those ranks.
