I'll review the schedule for the 757 area & see any games in 6A which could generate an upset. Anyone have a tough rival that could pull off the unthinkable? Let's have a bit of fun & see what y'all think?

Then if you go to that game, let us Know how it went down!
 
Last year no one expected Bayside to beat Cox (Defending Beach District Champs) but they put a beating on the Falcons, 63-24.

With the 2017 Tidewater Athlete of the Year, Tayvion Robinson, who almost single handedly took O. Smith to OT in last year's playoffs, I think Cox will still be favored over the Marlins.

This is the game I may go see tomorrow night given that the West Forsyth vs O. Smith game will be Saturday.
 
Definitely think Bayside could have a great opportunity to once again compete - and maybe even beat - a Cox team that figures to contend for the Beach District crown. Those two teams generally play close, and the coaches know each other very well. Bill Stachelski (Cox) and Jon White (Bayside) used to be assistants together at Cox before both became Head Coaches, and each rather successful.

Couple potential upsets to keep an eye on in Tidewater -- Green Run may give Landstown a scare. They have a dangerous passing game with QB Noah Spencer and junior WR Lakeem Rudolph (potential D-1 kid who made an impact in basketball). Key will be if their line play can hold up and defensively they contain Landstown's top two playmakers - RB Luqman Haskett and WR Jalen Jennings.

Another one that has a chance to occur, though I don't think it will, is Southampton against Poquoson. The Islanders are strong on both sides of the ball and haven't lost to Southampton in about 12 years. However, Littleton Parker likes this Southampton team a lot and feels they will make some noise in Class 3, Interested to see if this one is closer than previous years.
