Postseason berths are won and loss throughout the regular season, but with this week's slate of high school football games, there will be a couple of teams who will look back to this point as deciding their fate in 2021.

As was discussed on [this week's Ninth State Sports Show](https://www.nh-highschoolsports.com/ninth-state-sports-show-football-edition-oct-12/), there are a bunch of games in Division I this week that will eliminate some teams, and maybe even clinch playoff spots for others.

With at least a tiny bit of confidence, here are the picks.
