For some unknown reason, I've always rooted for the Smithfield Packers. I know in recent years it's because of my good buddy GWB. But, I liked them before I got to know him.
Sadly, GWB doesn't have good things to say about where the program is headed. Consequently, I just couldn't pick them this week.
I see that I'm in the minority in picking Centreville. I know very little about teams up that way, but they seem to have a lot of returning starters.
I struggled with MV vs LCA. In the end, I think LCA will be much improved, and I feel like MV has lost their swagger in the last few years.
The Courtland faithful always feel like that "this is their year!" And they should. That's what loyal fans are supposed to do. But Louisa is..., well..., always Louisa. A tough out, week in week out. Courtland is pretty darn predictable. They try to do what they do, and always try to do it well. But when they can't, they don't seem to be able to adjust. Louisa knows this, and will be prepared. Louisa is darn good at being prepared, if you hadn't noticed. Sorry Lewis, I don't see this upset happening.
Even though I took Hampton, my upset would be Kecoughtan winning this one.
Well gang, after tonight, just four more nights before there is some real football being played somewhere. It's been a LONG off season, hasn't it?
