Football Predictions

We'll just get right down to it, shall we:

Bridgeport 42 - North Marion 13: Well, I must say I was impressed by the fortitude the Indians showed last week when they hosted Fairmont Senior. I'm not sure the Polar Bears played their best football but it doesn't matter now. Bridgeport completes an undefeated regular season.

Alabama 19 - LSU 14: Will Alabama find an offense that can score touchdowns? Will LSU find a way to get around this Alabama defense? This should be a heckuva game in Bama country.

Ohio State 24 - Penn State 17: I have some doubts about Penn State now. Ohio State has struggled but I think Jim Tressell and Terrelle Pryor figure out a way to beat the Nittany Lions and ruin PSU's chance for a BCS bowl.

Cincinnati 35 - UConn 17: It's been a bad couple weeks for Connecticut and it's just going to get worse. At least this one won't come down to a last minute heartbreaker like the last two. Cincy is winning the Big East.

And finally,

West Fairmont 56 - East Fairmont 13: Could West Fairmont put 100 on the board this Friday at East-West? Possibly but doubtful. Coming off the disappointing loss at Bridgeport, the Polar Bears assert their dominance early and cruise to a victory over the Bees.

West Virginia 34 - Louisville 21: I don't know about this Mountaineer team. Just when I think they've turned the corner, they look inept against South Florida. The only salvation is that Louisville is just plain horrible. The real test is the 3 games following this game at Mountaineer Field.
