If we are talking region then I will still go with it being CC, Bucktown and for a spoiler I would have went with Fort prior to the WR being injured. Now it is a little less clear if anyone in the 'doah would have enough for the top teams in the BR or Buckingham. Lots can and likely will change between now and the middle to end of November so hang on for a wild ride these next several weeks.

It is a 4 way race with Clarke, Strasburg, Central and Madison. And a wide open Region with those 4 and Buckingham, Riverheads, Draft and Fort Defiance

North Stafford vs EV seems to shape up as a tight game. I see that so far everyone has picked NS. EV did beat NS last year. What's the biggest change in NS this year?

I am getting worried about my Graham to win 2A this year. Glenvar has moved into my #1 2A team at this point in the season. They have not been tested though. They have beat 4 bad teams. I assume they will handle Radford this week.

Alleghany on the 11th will be their first test of the year. (MaxPreps has 11th and 18th, not sure which is correct)

@THEGOATFROMJMU, I tend to agree and while there is time to get it right there are lots of little things that add up to a potentially quick exit. The game Saturday should be a big growing point but I thought the same thing after the close call with Central to start the season. Time will tell and the story isn't written for any team just yet.

I stick by my prediction 6 weeks ago.

I don't see Riverheads winning more than one playoff game this year....... (August 12)

Do they do the North/South division in football? If so that really mixes things up. Sherando and Handley should be 1 and 2 up north, guessing Salem will end up with 2, possibly 1 with power points from strong losses. Danville seems to be the other one primed to get the 1 or 2 seed in the south. From there, Amherst, Forest, Glass all are gonna be fighting to get in.

If they just do 1-8 regardless of division then it definitely looks different. Home filed in the region championship will be huge.

They do the North/South for all sports but football

This week is big for Central, I agree. I personally still leans toward them in this district just given their recent success. Their line play is still very solid, and they have a better passing threat. Moving Barahona to WR/utility guy gives them a new offensive dynamic. Plus, they've played the tougher schedule between them, Clarke, and Strasburg. Riverheads is obviously Riverheads and Staunton is pretty rock solid this year.

That being said, Clarke and Strasburg have really really good teams. It's huge Central gets both those squads at home this season. I expect the Central/CC game to be low scoring, neither team breaking 20.

I can see Madison crashing the party as well. Wouldn't be surprised at all if Central/CC/Strasburg all beat each other and Madison snags a win against one of those three as well.

CC was my pick preseason but it will be razor thin either way with the three teams most mentioned. Madison has some good pieces and is miles ahead of several years ago so they have a punchers chance as well in the BR.

Central and CC play in 2 weeks in Woodstock. If CC can beat Catoctin a school from Maryland and Central can get by KW this week it will set up for a big match up. The game with KW for Central is very intriguing. KW played both Strasburg and CC tough.

Lots of places still w/o power and/or phone... Grayson Co. still 97% powerless as of last night
Minor flooding in general, but a few places got hit, like Damascus (Holston HS) and Narrows.

Should be some good games. They all know each other really well. Right now I lean towards agreeing with you about it coming down to CC and the Rams but, Central is Central and who knows maybe the Madison passing game can score an upset or two in there.

KW isn't a normal winless team. That's why I stated i will be interested to see how the central KW game plays out. But you are correct about CC anyway. Other than KW their opponents have not been very good.
