Well, the final week of the MIAA Football regular season is upon us and editors Matt Feld and Joe Parello are here to make their picks for the top games across Massachusetts.

No fear, this will not be the final time we post picks for our top games of the week. We will post picks weekly throughout the postseason and into Super Bowl weekend. 

Additionally, we will have our picks out for each of the Eastern. Mass sectionals out next week, and Central/Western Mass. sectionals the week following. 

Heading into week seven, here are our two editors shake up in the standings. The Houston Astros and Boston Red Sox split the first two games, leaving both editors at 1-1. As a result, we elected to not add that result. Joe is slowly creeping his way back:

Feld: 43-13

Parello: 38-18

Now, for this week's picks!

MIAA Football: Five Games with the Biggest Postseason Implications

Lincoln-Sudbury is hoping to hold-off Reading and clinch a top-two seed in Div. 2 North

By Matt Feld (@Mattyfeld612)

Throughout the MIAA regular season, we have released every Wednesday our top five games to watch during the upcoming week.

With this being the final week of the MIAA High School Football regular season, however, we thought we would take a different approach and take a look at the five games that carry the largest postseason implications heading into the final weekend.

While the teams headed for the postseason are determined in almost every section across the state, battles for top four seeding and even home-field advantage throughout can be found in games being played in all four districts.

The MIAA will release the tournament pairings for the North and South on Sunday morning at 10am and SuiteSports will be there to post the seedings, schedule, and provide initial reaction for all eight divisions.

Until then, however, here are our five games that carry the biggest postseason weight this week.
