Hey Mike,
I was hoping you would have Heritage (Leesburg) (5-1 record) @ Woodgrove (6-0 record) on the list this week?

I'm sorry I don't know how I missed that one Tom. Although, I really expect Woodgrove to win that by 2-3 TD's. I don't think many people would have picked Heritage Leesburg anyway. Bottom line though, I apologize for missing that one. Record wise it looks like a good matchup. Do me a favor in the coming weeks and post West suggestions, especially from your area so I don't miss an obvious one like that again. Message me the suggestions or start a post on here like early Saturday for the upcoming week's games. Thanks
I added it to the bottom for a bonus West pick this week. I need to remember to have 9 East games next week to balance it back out for East/West. Thanks
I know it's unlikely but do not count JF out this friday. Like opponents are not necessarily the best indicator but if you look at Brookville/Rustburg Brookville/Amherst JF/Rustburg... it is interesting. Also, Amherst has struggled stopping the wishbone more than anybody else the past two years (JF scoring 71 in 2015 and 45 in 2014). I know that Jones and Miller are gone - but the same schemes with still talented backs. O-line is coming along. The offense is really starting to execute well and with Amherst's QB out, could be an interesting night.
Yeah I will agree it isn't probable - but should be a great game regardless. JF has had two very different defensive identities this season - very inconsistent due to inexperience. If the defense that showed up against Salem, Heritage, or first 3 quarters vs Rustburg shows up, I think they win. If the other defense shows up, I would expect a 14 point loss or so.
I picked JF....has to be an upset somewhere. JF has to win one of these close ones sometime.
Yep- 6-0 Lafayette plays 4-2 Poquoson on Thursday at wanner stadium so 0-6 Bruton can play 1-5 Jamestown on Friday there. Excellent scheduling!!!
Bruton right now is about as bad as a team gets. Terrible defense and struggling offense. Absolutly great kids and coach but only a few good players. I would put Janestown as a big favorite, especially with their big win last week over New Kent. The steady improvement is there, though still far from a playoff team right now.
I feel for the poor kids at Bruton, but I'm glad to see Jamestown finally have just a tiny bit of success. I met their AD when we played them, and I guess he is still there? He was a really friendly and accomadating guy.
