MVP: Charleston Rambo

The Thinking: It may not have come in a win but Rambo just couldn't have done a lot more against one of the country's best teams in DeSoto. Obviously Cedarian Lamb, Marcellias Sutton, and Tre Brown all had big moments including Brown helping close out a state title. However, there just couldn't be a pick against Rambo who had one of the best games of any Sooner commitment this season.
