Every week I seem to miss one. Appy and Tazewell got me,and last week Twin Springs got me. Here's hoping for this week:

J.J.Kelly Indians at Grundy Golden Wave

The word is that Grundy is an improved football team,but lord knows the Wave HAD to get better after last year. Kelly will have Sproles and Bates back,and that is bad news for Grundy. Indians win it 27- 14


Appalachia Bulldogs at Gate City Blue Devils


It just doesn't get any easier for Roger's young pups on the road at Legion. Growing pains=blowout loss 55-8 GC


Clintwood Green Wave hosting Lebanon's Pioneers


For the second week in a row the Wave will be tested (which is a good thing). The Pioneers have the tools to hang in there,but this is a solid Wave club and they'll get the W at Ralph's 21-7


Coeburn Blue Knights at Thomas Walker Pioneers

The 68-0 thing? Not happpening this week fellers. Shane Bright is going to get back to doing his thing after being stymied by the Tribe's defense last week. Blue Crew takes another step toward the CD crowm,winning 34-14


Twin Springs Titans at St. Paul Deacons

Those dang Titans may very well get me again,but I have to go with SP and Phillips in the lineup at home 21-13.


Now that all the formalities have been dispensed,on to THE GAME this week...


Powell Valley Vikings at John I. Burton Black Raiders

Those young Vikes are growing up fast. On the road at Norton is a high-pressure situation. We will certainly see just how far Phil's boys have come. So much speed on the Raider squad,but a heckuva coach on the other. I think it will be worth the price of admission. 27-20 Raiders.
