2022 Weekly Predictions



            Each week we will let you know how the Computer did and how many favorites won according to the AHSFHS Power Ratings.  The Power Ratings are based upon past performance early in the season and will better reflect a team's strength as the football season progresses.

            Last week the AHSFHS.org Power Ratings had a record of 171-25 (87.2%) predicting the outcome of games. This was our best week yet. Sixteen of the games the computer missed were contests where the loser was favored by less than six points.

           The biggest upset was Morgan Academy losing to Monroe Academy 28-8 after entering the game as a 27 point favorite. Others included Stanhope Elmore (+19) beating Pike Road 14-13, McKenzie (+17) beating Kinston 38-22 and Gaylesville (+12) defeating Decatur Heritage Christian 24-14.

            This week we have some interesting matchups and great games. Daphne is a one point favorite over Foley. Thompson over Hoover by eleven. Theodore over Saraland by 3. Catholic Montgomery by five over Andalusia.

           Remember that teams are rewarded for performing better than expected. So a team from a lower classification losing to a team from a higher one will not be punished as much as a team losing to a team they are suppose to beat. Basically that means a team will move up by beating a team they are favored to beat by more than the predicted point spread. Another team will move up even if they lose, if they lose by less than the predicted spread.
