.I honestly thought as the season went on Alleghany played well. Obviously toss out the MA game but they gave Starmount and EW all they wanted and lost a tough game to South Stokes early in the campaign. As easy as they were 2-4 in NW play they could have been 5-1. I could see the upset but I leaned Hville. Would not shock me if Sparta boys pulled it off though!
MH by whatever they want; South's speed may cause them troubles but South's line isn't the same league. MH rolls into Sauraville and plays house. If Dave can play ball control like he wants it may be close for a bit.
Starmount, however an upset isn't entirely out of the rhelm. Starmount's been bad for that under Grinton. If Cherokee's line plays hard and shuts Dezern down somehow anything's possible.
MA by whatever they want. Probably will have the JV kids in super early. North Stokes has a lot of courage to willingly step into the grinder again.
Thomasville by whatever they want. Will be running clock early.
EW by whatever they want as long as the defense plays to it's ability.
Alleghany and Hayesville is a true tossup for me. Alleghany's been a real stubborn squad this year, they've played everyone but MA and Robbinsville hard. Super physical and have some size. Hayesville has only really woke up the last few weeks after a very meh out of state schedule. They did beat Cherokee so they won't be a pushover. Alleghany's used to the long rides which is a major + for them; if they hadn't drove to Robbinsville earlier they'd be in a bad spot. I see this one going either way so no pick. I'd love for Alleghany to get a W here though.
