- Blitz Battle: GR Catholic Central (5-0) vs. South Christian (5-0) at East Kentwood
This is an OK Gold winner takes all game. The Cougars and Sailors played each other in the OK Gold from 2008-2015 but have not met in football since. Both teams are getting great quarterback play, Catholic Central from junior Joey Silveri and South from senior Ty Rynbrandt.

- Lowell (3-2) vs. Forest Hills Central (4-1) at Northview
The Rangers still have an outside shot to share the OK White title, but would need to win and have Byron Center lose to East Grand Rapids.

The Red Arrows are trying to avoid heading into the postseason with three straight losses.
- Byron Center (5-0) at East Grand Rapids (2-3)
