I think Holmes wins this one and continues to quiet their critics. Boone has struggled some this year against more athletic teams (Seneca, Newport, Highlands) and Holmes will be the most athletic team they've seen thus far.

Henley will likely put Ricardo Johnson on Gabbard and force Boone's big men to beat them. With Elijah Pittman and Kevon Rice roaming the lane down there, I see Boone's big men struggling.

Overall, Pittman will be the X-factor. The Rebels have nobody that can match up with his size or athleticism and his length will bother the Boone big men. If Pittman continues to dominate the way he has recently, this won't be very close.

Boone is a veteran team though with a lot of experience so I expect a good game.

Holmes: 61
Boone: 52
