@southbottomU you have always been cordial; therefore, I will politely decline your request. I appreciate and respect being asked for my analysis/opinion; however, an opinion is just that and not really debatable. History has proven time and time again on this board that one can offer a fair analysis and still be crucified by posters for it. I have remained respectful and allowed the advancing (deserving) teams fans to enjoy the ride and will do so again.
Both teams are good, have talented players and excellent coaching staffs. Louisa, has a senior led team, playing on emotion with a very hot qb and lb. Salem is a proven commodity and winner. The resident experts can sort this one out. Good luck to both teams.
