Welcome to
On Feet Nation
It has been a very, very long football season, but we have finally made it to championship week. And what would the championship week be without some championship predictions?
MLive’s Scott DeCamp and Jared Purcell joined WLCS-FM 98.3 high school football play-by-play announcer Matt Tjapkes on the John Mackay Show on Tuesday to break down each game of the football state championships held at Ford Field on Friday and Saturday.

EAST LANSING — To provide for the convenience and safety of spectators attending the Michigan High School Athletic Association 11-Player Football Finals on Jan. 22 and 23 at Ford Field in Detroit, attendees are being advised of a variety of items related to transportation and security — including policies regulating specified parking, entrances and exits for each team’s spectators and types of bags allowed into the stadium.
Parking, entrance/exits and seating all have been assigned on a per-game basis to keep spectators from home and away teams from mixing as much as possible as part of COVID-19 precautions.
Visiting team fans will park in Ford Field lots 4 and 5 and enter through Gate D only. Home team fans will park in the Ford Field parking structure and enter through Gate G only. Parking costs $6 and must be paid for with credit card. Spectators may not enter Ford Field until receiving notification that the gate is open — school administrators will have details on how that announcement will be made for their spectators, and gate openings also will be announced on the MHSAA Twitter feed, https://twitter.com/mhsaa.
Upon arrival in the building, fans will find their designated seating areas on the south side of the field if their team is the designated home team for their contest and on the north side for the designated visiting team. Home teams this weekend are Centreville, Muskegon Mona Shores, Montague, Cadillac, New Lothrop, Davison, Grand Rapids Catholic Central and DeWitt. Fans must sit in the sections assigned for their school for that game. For information including maps, go to the MHSAA Website Football Finals page, www.mhsaa.com/Sports/Football/2020-Finals.
Fans also are advised that the consumption of alcohol is prohibited in Ford Field parking facilities and lots, and smoking — including use of electronic cigarettes and vaporizers — is prohibited inside the stadium. Tailgating, including the setting up and use of grilling equipment, also is not allowed.
Tickets are priced at $19.90 —with service charge— and good only for that game. Tickets may be purchased only via GoFan with a code supplied by the participating team’s athletic department. No tickets will be available at the door. Spectators must leave immediately at the conclusion of their game to allow for cleaning of that section.
Security measures also will be in place to help assure spectator safety. Fans will be subject to metal detector screening, and Ford Field personnel reserve the right to request patrons open their coats, bags and other item-carrying vessels for visual inspection and deny entrance to individuals who do not cooperate. Spectators should remove cell phones, cameras, keys and other large metal objects before passing through the metal detectors.
Items which fans will be prohibited from bringing into the building include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Bottled beverages, of all types including water.
• Purses larger than a clutch bag, coolers, briefcases, backpacks, cinch bags, grocery and paper bags, duffle bags, diaper bags, luggage of any kind, computer and camera bags and large camera cases.
