I hate making predictions, but you know, anything to pick against Mission Viejo.

Here are my picks for some of Orange County’s bigger games of Week 4:

Mater Dei 35, Corona Centennial 21 (Thursday)
Santa Margarita 21, Foothill 13 (Thursday)
Servite 24, Sherman Oaks Notre Dame 17
Concord De La Salle 35, Mission Viejo 24 (Saturday)
El Dorado 21, Glendora 7

And here are five bonus picks:

Western 35, Los Altos 34
Newport Harbor 24, Mira Costa 21
Hart 28, Loyola 14
Riverside North 42, Chaparral 41
Colton 24, Los Osos 21

So-called expert: Last week, 7-3; Season, 25-16
