From what I’ve seen today they don’t beat Huguenot or Dinwiddie. This game shouldn’t have been close at all. I know it’s a rivalry game but …. Nah
Gotta line em up. All due respect, I personally think Dinwiddie gets the same result they got against KG last year with both teams. Both teams just have too many athletes. Billy Mills isn’t a GOAT for no reason though. Dalton vs both defenses will be fun to watch.

Welp I said I'll hold my hot takes for later but Varina will be way too physical for Huguenot. They have the athletes but their line won't hold up against Varina’s D line. Dinwiddie(depending on Matoaca game) and Varina to me are the 2 top because they have a physical presence the other teams don't.

As long as neither team have 2 6’4 200 WRs who run 4.3 I love Dinwiddie’s chances
Iveon Lewis and D1 Carter two 4 stars bro. Throw in Kel Dabney and Myles Anderson. Both defenses are better than KG’s last year, no disrespect to KG by any means.

Wooooooow HSHS had a chance to make it a one possession game but missed the extra point. 28-19 Varina 3 minutes left. Varina beat them but mannnnn this Springer team is real blah.(They will stomp out soft Glen Allen though)

I am not willing to, nor do I have the personal knowledge to debate the guys who watch a ton of games like @BoKnowsSports, @General172011, and @GoBlue2109 on who is going to win Region B. The top four teams are very sound and are capable of matching the States best teams. I prefer to look at trends and styles. After doing the math (Max/expected points) it looks like a Dinwiddie win over Matoaca will provide enough points for the Generals to edge out Varina for the top spot. I realize that's a tough get, but if you want to walk the walk you have to win pressurized games (Good job Varina and Phoebus today). With that being said I like Dinwiddie's chances at home, on grass, and with a crazy crowd.

Since 2008, Dinwiddie has been beaten once (2017 Louisa) at home after being seeded #1 in the region and have only lost at home in the playoffs four times since 2008 (2010 Phoebus 2012 Hopewell, 2017 Louisa, and 2021 PH-Ashland).

I like Huguenots talent (most complete team) Varina's defense, and King George's offense. Each have their Achilles heel. The right matchup is imperative.

Will talk more about this once everybody gets finished with the regular season next week. Good luck to all. Let's stay healthy and get ready to battle.

We are all entitled to our own opinion. I’ve been wrong before (admitted it) and will be wrong again. If I had to rank the teams; I’d go 1. Huguenot 2. Varina 3. Dinwiddie with KG behind at 4. KG’s coaching keeps them in the discussions. I don’t think the region is as close as many make it although there’s 4 really good teams.

I agree @BoKnowsSports, but you guys have your fingers on the pulse of all of 804 football. Just don't have the overall knowledge to go toe toe anymore.

I do disagree with you regarding the appeared separation gap. We shall see.

The separation gap to me is VHS, Din, Hug tier 1.

KG tier 2

Tier 3 Everyone else. Hanover might have the juice to surprise someone.

You feel me? KG’s coaching staff will keep them competitive with the top 3. I’m putting Powhatan in that tier 2,
