Last week: 3-0
Overall: 9-3
CB South (5-0) @ North Penn (3-2) (-9)
North Penn finally hosts a home game after a brutal opening 4 games on the road. They will take on a red hot CB South team riding on the heels of a lights out D and balanced O. Fresh off a shutout of Souderton, the Titans come in only allowing opponents 9.6 ppg. They will be tested by one of the more potent offenses in the area while also looking at sophomore QB John Consoletti starting in place of injured starter Jack Johns. While the young QB was solid last week and RB Ryan Watson has been impressive so far for CB South I doubt they will find the same success at Crawford Stadium. North Penn continues its climb back to the top of D1 6A power ratings with another win...NP 35-27
Haverford (5-0) @ Garnet Valley (5-0) (-5.5)
The Central League is about to get interesting with the first clash of title contenders matching up. Haverford still has Springfield-Delco left to face, Garnet Valley must host Marple, and Springfield before the league champion is decided. This game will go a long way in determining who will have the edge on Springfield. The Fords are coming off an impressive dismantling of Marple 35-0 last week leaving no doubt their intentions on challenging the Jags. QB Jack Ruane was on the mark completing 24-30 passes for 276 yards and 3 TD’s while running in a 4th TD. Haverford has weapons in WR/SS Jordan Mosley, committed to University of Maryland, WR Trey Blair, and WR Carrington Hooks. The Jags are mowing opponents down week after week with their vaunted ground attack leaving teams with little room for error. I think Haverford has been overlooked thus far but I bet Coach Ricci and his crew won’t make the same mistake Marple did….GV 24-16
Pennsbury (4-1) (-6) @ Bensalem (4-1)
QB Drasaun Moore leads the Owls option offense into a matchup with Pennsbury. These 2 teams are both heading towards the playoffs but a loss here could cause some sweaty palms in Lower Bucks as both teams still have challenging league games on the schedule. It looks as if the Falcons are starting to adapt to the spread offense after countless decades of “Ground and Pound”. QB Zach Demarchis has proven to be a threat in the air and on the ground most likely giving Bensalem a lot to think about on D. A loss will not eliminate either team but looking ahead, I would bet that Bensalem needs this more than Pennsbury. But, I think the Falcons are more battle tested than the Owls & are able to light up the scoreboard…Pennsbury 35-10
