WEEK 3 PREDICTIONS (favored team in ALL CAPS followed by point spread)
7A/6A CENTRAL
Russellville at ALMA (1): Russellville lost to Fayetteville 42-6 last week, the Cyclones' lowest output since a 27-0 loss to Bentonville in the 2008 playoffs. Alma senior special-teams guru Brooks Mauldin scored on a fake punt in the fourth quarter to rally the Airedales to a 27-24 win over Sallisaw, Okla.
Harrison at VAN BUREN (7): Harrison senior RB Jeremy Johnson dashed 50 and 34 yards for TDs in last week's 28-21 win over Mountain Home. Van Buren looks to match its win total from the previous two years and notch Mike Lee's sixth win as head coach.

7A/6A EAST
Jonesboro at FAYETTEVILLE (21): Jonesboro junior QB Moe Malugen completed 17 of 24 passes for 225 yards and two TDs in last week's 56-16 loss to Conway.

JACKSONVILLE (11) at Hot Springs: The Red Devils beat Benton 34-10 last week to give coach Patrick Russell his first win at Jacksonville. Hot Springs committed two turnovers in the first quarter to give Glen Rose all the momentum it needed to beat the Trojans 32-14 last week.
Sylvan Hills at LR PARKVIEW (8): Sylvan Hills senior RB Nate Clark ran 18 times for 157 yards and two TDs, including a 78-yarder with 5:48 left to reclaim the lead, in last week's 24-15 win over LR Christian. LR Parkview rallied to beat Dollarway 21-14 last week after trailing 14-0 in the fourth quarter.

BATESVILLE (18) at Mountain Home: Batesville has bombed Newport and Searcy by a combined 66-20. Mountain Home tied Batesville 17-17 a year ago.
SEARCY (14) at Morrilton: Searcy senior RB Jacob Mowrer ran five yards for a TD with five minutes left in the game in last week's 25-6 loss to Batesville. Morrilton snapped a five game losing streak with last week's 21-14 win over Dardanelle.

7A/6A SOUTH
LAKE HAMILTON (1) at Pulaski Academy: Lake Hamilton junior QB Levi Runyan completed 11 of 19 passes for 238 yards and two TDs in last week's 42-28 win over Springdale. Pulaski Academy gave up 395 yards rushing in a 35-34 loss to Cabot. The Bruins led 20-7 in the second quarter, but could not stop Cabot's relentless rushing attack.

PINE BLUFF (9) at LR Central: Pine Bluff senior RB Jawahn Hunt carried 25 times for 130 yards, including an 11-yard, game-winning TD run with seven seconds left to beat Watson Chapel 20-16 last week. LR Central managed just 140 yards of offense in a 38-0 loss to FS Southside.
GREENBRIER (17) at Benton: Greenbrier junior QB Neal Burcham completed nine of 13 passes for 188 yards and five TDs in the first half of last week's 53-0 win over Mayflower. After leading 10-7 in the first quarter, Benton allowed 27 unanswered points in a 34-10 loss to Jacksonville.
EL DORADO (10) at Magnolia: Both teams look to rebound after tough losses. Har-Ber beat El Dorado 42-13, the Wildcats' worst loss since Week 8, 2007 (38-7 to Lake Hamilton). Magnolia lost 13-6 in the final minutes to Haynesville, La.
LR Fair at PULASKI OAK GROVE (21): LR Fair committed five turnovers in last week's 41-7 loss to Pulaski Robinson. Oak Grove's defense scored twice in a 36-12 win over North Pulaski.
LR McClellan at MILLS (21): LR McClellan lost its first two games by a combined 95-0 and may not score this week. Mills beat LR McClellan 28-0 a year ago.
