I decided to review the 100 closest games by point spread on Drew Pasteur’s Fantastic 50 website. I also added a couple games into the respective honorable mention districts due to out-of-state opponents being featured. My apologies for having this out a little late. I’ve been ‘under the weather’ for a while now.
THE 10 BEST GAMES TO SEE IN OHIO - WEEK EIGHT By Kyle Holsinger Welcome back, readers! I opened up the selection of games to a wider range than an eight-point spread. This week, I tried to consider the top 100 closest point spreads on Drew Pasteur’s Fantastic 50 website. I hope that can make […]
Welcome back for another edition of The 10 Best Games to See in Ohio. As we get midway through the regular season, conference play has begun and the playoff picture is starting to develop. Last week, we had seven of the ten featured games decided by 10 points or less. Let’s hope we can improve on that.
Welcome back, y’all! Most teams are getting into their conference play, and we’re starting to see teams develop and grow from the first week of the season.
For the first three weeks, I use teams win-loss record from last season as a factor to decide which games to pick so this is the first time this year that this year’s win-loss count has been factored.
Welcome back and thanks for reading! With all the data needed to write these articles, there is not a realistic way to write these particular articles by Monday. The 10 Best Games to See in Ohio will be a Wednesday release from now on.
Let’s get right to it. We got some exciting games this week…
Welcome back for Heart of Ohio Sports’ third season of The 10 Best Games to See in Ohio.
Based off of feedback from last season, I’m focusing more this season on trying to find games that will be close in score more than ‘premier matchups’. It’s a hard task because you can’t predict the future, but I’m going to give it my best.
Midway through last season, I began to feature a game from each district as an honorable mention selection. The Northwest district’s top pick is featured in our local games so I will add an additional game to the honorable mention due to that this week. That same precedent will continue if and when it happens again.
I can’t wait to get back on the sidelines and watch some football.
THE TOP PREP TEAMS TO WATCH IN OHIO IN 2026 By Kyle Holsinger Thanks for reading our fourth installment in the seven article series. Last season, I picked three-of-four correctly in Division IV and I picked Glenville to win it all. One of the better performances in any division. DIVISION IV REGION 13: CLEVELAND GLENVILLE […]
We are 50 days out from the kickoff of the 2026 OHSAA high school football season, and I’m back with a ‘way too early’ preview of the local landscape. The first game in the area will be Leipsic traveling to Heidelberg University’s Hoernemann Stadium to face Calvert on Thursday, August 20.
Are you and your coworkers wondering who is still in the playoffs locally, and where they play this weekend? Well, we have you covered.
Welcome back everyone! Thanks again to Drew Pasteur's Fantastic 50, Joe Eitel, MaxPreps, 247sports, OhioHSHelmts, and many others who make this article possible. Thanks to Nate Mullins of Heart of Ohio Sports for allowing me a platform to write this article each week. Finally, thank YOU for reading. I'm considering doing a playoff edition next week, but we'll see who all gets in locally.
