Carroll County winning a game! 25-7 over Patrick County!
Brand new Colgan kept it respectable in the loss to Forest Park, 21-7.
The Greyhounds of I C Norcom beating Hopewell sounds like an upset, but it really isn't. The Blue Devils have been riding along on hype from last year and the notoriety of a couple of marquee players. There is a lot of work to be done in the old "Chemical Capital of the South!"
Charles City not only winning, but winning by a decent margin, 28-18.
Northside over Pulaski by 10. Maybe things have finally settled down at Northside.
Class 2 Clarke County over Class 4 Dominion 39-24. I predicted this outcome, but for many, it was a surprise. I'm not sure if I was that strong in my prediction, or that I just wanted them to win for my good friend, Clarkefan.
I drank the koolade on Parray McClure, and got choked on it. Rockbridge 33 PM 6.
And a little surprised to see Waynesboro get handled pretty easily by Draft, 27-13. I figured Draft to be down more than that this year.
And finally, Sussex Central vs Essex! 8-0 SC. I'm not surprised that it was a defensive war. And when a game is that close every mistake is magnified. But I had given the nod to Essex because of homefield advantage. On the flip side of that, I had the pleasure of sitting with the dad of a SC player at our Bird scrimmage. He was really high in the Tiger's defense. Apparently he was correct.
What surprised you?
