A couple of games tripped up the record 19 prognosticators:

-- Five picked St. Pius to upend Chaffee.

-- Four went with East Prairie to upset Kennett, which almost happened. The Eagles, trailing 41-35, had two possessions in Kennett territory in the final eight minutes, including the game-ended drive that stalled inside Kennett's 20-yard line.

-- Surprisingly, five people went with Sikeston over SEMO North defending champion Jackson. Would 25 percent of any group of people outside of Sikeston made that pick at the beginning of the season? I heard it was a competitive game, but Jackson prevailed. (The Indians now get a four-game gauntlet of Hazelwood Central, Farmington, Poplar Bluff and Eureka).

-- One took a chance on Perryville, which played within three points of Park Hills Central.

-- One also selected Southeast Missouri State to beat Missouri State.

Not much movement in the standings. Here they are through Week 4:

Here are the games for Week 5:

Saturday: SEMO at Indiana State.

You can make your selections here or in my blog later this week with my picks. I have some studying to do to make informed selections on some of these tests: SEMO, Hazelwood Central-Jackson, North County-Bluff. East Prairie may have a chance to test another good Class 3 team this week and...

... Chaffee at Scott City ought to be a tight battle after last year's win by Chaffee. It's Scott City's homecoming, and the Rams aren't too happy about losing to Chaffee last year for the first time since 1985.

Who's going to win that one? (You can vote in the Semoball poll.)
