For the first week predictions I went 14-4 in the won/loss columns. Not too bad considering the first week is one of the toughest weeks to judge. This week, we have a couple of inter-state games as Highland Springs (Richmond, VA) travels to Chambers and Mallard Creek makes the trip to Georgia to play nationally ranked Buford. The predictions are below:

A.L. Brown 37 Sun Valley 23

Ardrey Kell 26 Cuthbertson 21

West Mecklenburg 30 Berry 20

Butler 23 Richmond 14

Hickory Ridge 21 Charlotte Catholic 20

Hopewell 34 East Mecklenburg 21

North Mecklenburg 33 Garinger 7

West Charlotte 26 Harding 7

Hough 38 Mooresville 14

Marvin Ridge 28 Independence 14

Chambers 30 Highland Springs 21

Buford 48 Mallard Creek 14

Olympic 35 Rocky River 14

Palisades 34 Calhoun Falls 27

Porter Ridge 35 West Cabarrus 10

South Mecklenburg 24 Providence 17

Weddington 31 Providence Day 24

Credit Honda for sticking your neck out this early in the season. Good result the first week but may be just as unpredictable this week. Not many gimmees on the list. I am not sure I see Marvin Ridge beating Independence. They got thumped by Monroe week 1. Not questioning the Catholic v Hickory Ridge outcome, this game is a tossup. My only disagreement is that, unless there are a whole lot of turnovers, I think it will take 5 touchdowns minimum to win the game. The scoreboard may be lit up like a pinball machine in hyper mode.

Yes, Marvin Ridge seems to be the problem child for me and very unpredictable. I wouldn't be surprised if they beat Independence. It wouldn't shock me if they didn't.

I got Chambers winning,but I got 21-20. Those teams are absolutely loaded on defense, but both teams are also very big play explosive.
