I like Huguenot by running clock over EV.
Powhatan and Dinwiddie will be close. Just don’t see Powahtan’s defense being able to stop Dalton consistently.
KG over Courtland. KG’s secondary will have to step it up. They have a freshman and sophomore playing on the back end.
Varina/Hanover will be very BLAH. I think Hanover played too conservative and scary last time. Varina can’t start looking ahead to Huguenot.
Really really hate that Hanover got that playoff spot over Monacan.
I watched Courtland at Eastern View last night. A sloppy game by both sides and the officiating was hot garbage on both sides.
Eastern View has an elusive quarterback who can throw it a mile. They also have some elusive running backs. Courtland can run the ball, and if they run lure King George to sleep and keep possession, then they will be able to keep next week's game close. Courtland actually cost themselves about 1:30 late in the game last night by passing incomplete on second and third down when they had the lead.
I watched King George against Spotsylvania last week and they have the athletes (again) to turn the lights out early. I actually think that winning the coin toss will be key in this one as Courtland will want to take the ball first to chew through the first quarter.
Spotsylvania did well with ball fakes. Some of the best I've ever seen them do. And that's one of the big reasons they were able to catch King George off guard and put up 42 last week against the Foxes.
I still see both Courtland and Eastern View with early first round exits with King George getting bounced in the second round by at least two scores at Dinwiddie.
