High school football predictions |
||
|---|---|---|
Kyle Brennan | Mark Jaffee |
|
| SH-KT at WCA | WCA | WCA |
| Why not? It’s pretty tough at this point to figure out who’s gonna win any city game on any day. | Really is a toss-up, two distinct styles, Hearts aerial attack, Spartans multi-faceted. Special teams is the key to the game. | |
| Ansonia at St. Paul | Ansonia | Ansonia |
| 5-0 vs. 4-1 looks good, right? Yeah, not so much.. | Chargers quietly taking the lead in the NVL race and standings, but certainly not content. | |
| Wolcott at Woodland | Wolcott | Wolcott |
| The Hawks are going to struggle to find a win this season, while Wolcott is clicking on all cylinders right now. | Some may have been surprised by win over Seymour, but not me. Jason Pace can flat-out coach. | |
| Naugatuck at Watertown | Naugatuck | Naugatuck |
| The impending Naugy-Wolcott matchup shapes up to be a pretty good one for the NVL Iron title. | Greyhounds have a lot of depth at the skilled positions and recorded three shutouts in a row. Pretty good combination. | |
| Kennedy at Seymour | Seymour | Seymour |
| There’s no time for the Wildcats to be upset after last week’s upset loss. Kennedy is good enough to give Seymour some fits if the ‘Cats let them. | Wildcats must put the last week blemish out of their mind in a hurry. | |
| Crosby at Wilby | Crosby | Crosby |
| Man, I did not see a 62-24 loss to WCA coming for Crosby. The Bulldogs might be let down, but they won’t lose this game. | A must-win for the Bulldogs, who had extremely high hopes for winning season and at 1-4 need a boost. | |
| Stratford at Pomperaug | Pomperaug | Pomperaug |
| The Panthers have lost three in a row since their opening-week win, but Stratford is really struggling. Not the SWC’s best matchup here. | After a three-game losing streak, Panthers love home-cooking. | |
| G-N at Stafford | G-N | G-N |
| In what will be the Yellowjackets’ toughest game of the regular season, I like the strength of their running game. | Yellowjackets, coming off a bye week, are in a real good position. | |
| Nonnewaug at Coventry | Nonnewaug | Nonnewaug |
| It’s been a disappointing first half of the season for the Chiefs. Zach Mauro is due for a breakout game. | Chiefs need a win to give them a boost of confidence for second-half push. | |
| Lewis Mills at Granby | Lewis Mills | Lewis Mills |
| The Spartans have one of the Pequot’s tougher schedules in the second half, so they need this one. | Spartans hit their stride. | |
| MCW United at Vinal Tech | MCW | MCW |
| The time is right for MCW United’s first victory. | MCW United gets into the win column. | |
| O'Brien Tech at Cheney Tech | Cheney Tech | O'Brien Tech |
| The Condors have had a nice start to their season, but Cheney Tech is one of the CSC’s best. | Condors make the long road trip worthwhile. | |
| Torrington at Holy Cross | Holy Cross | Holy Cross |
| These teams are both down and trying to rebuild. The Crusaders have definitely played better of late and should get their fourth straight win. | Crusaders are getting better and better and better. | |
| Oxford at Derby | Oxford | Oxford |
| The Wolverines’ defense has been one of the NVL’s best so far this season, and they’ve got an opportunity to pitch another gem against a struggling Derby squad. | Biggest game on the Wolverines schedule so far this season. | |
