this week in high school football

I think that picking high school football games at this time of year is basically like saying, hmmm who is usually good and who is usually bad. That is what I will go with right now at least.
I think I am probably two weeks away from doing a top 20 boys football players in the city because well right now its just too early to know everyone. I know that Sewell and Kelly from Howard would be on it and Dixon and the Seminoles running back would be on it, but I need a few more weeks to figure it out.
As far as team rankings we will know a lot more after this week. Yes Warner Robins is that good, but I have questions about Jones County and Westside, and even Northside. As I stated, we will know much more after this week.
So here are some picks to keep you going
Central- HOCO
I know nothing about Central except they were terrible a year ago. They have a new coach this year, but I don't know if that is enough to turn it around this quick. HOCO has a game under their belts and they weren't terrible, losing to what I think is a pretty good Perry team.
HOCO 26  Central  6


Tattnall Square- Dublin
Tattnall is not as bad as Howard made them look. They have skill players and will be bolstered by some returning skill players. But Dublin is not the kind of team that Tattnall usually plays because of their size and overall team speed. I think Tattnall plays much better than they did in the scrimmage against Howard, but Dublin is pretty good this year.
Dublin 33 Tattnall  20


Peach Co- Northside
I do not claim to know anything about either one of these teams this year. I do know however, that Chad Campbell is one of the three best coaches in this area.
I also know that Northside wins a lot of football games every year
Northside 19 Peach Co 16


Stratford- Savannah Country Day
Ladies and gentlemen, meet Christian Palmer, one of my favorite players in the city . He is that quarterback , point guard type who finds ways to win games in whatever sport he is playing. I am not sure about Stratford's skill players this year, but Palmer is enough to get a win here,
Stratford  23  SCD  13


MDS- Landmark
Mount de Sales will play again without Josiah Cotton who might be a top five player in the city, but had quarterback Dexter Williams, who may end up being the best player in the city this year. He ran for 189 yards last game and expect the same thing this week.
MDS 28 Landmark 6


FPD- Howard
Will Howard be flat heading into this game after a tough loss to Jones County ? NO they wont. If FPD is as down as I think they are, this one could get messy.
Howard 40 FPD 13


Westside-Harris County
Harris Count always has pretty good football teams and Westside always has pretty good football teams that commits 20 penalties a game. The SW- Westside game a week ago had no flow at all , mainly because of the 35 flags we saw in that game. Harris Co lost a tough one last week and Westside better be ready to go.
Harris County 22 Westside 21


Perry- Northeast
Good things are happening at both of these schools this year. But Perry will be just a little too much for the Raiders
