It's why we play the games - Sachems/Pioneers Bobcats/Eagles? I'm just saying...

With everyone assuming next Friday's matchup between Trinity and Plymouth, is going to be Clash of the Titans, neither of these teams should look beyond their Week 3 opponent. Both have substantial tests in front of them.

Trinity faces a 2-0 Laconia team with a big stong front line and the weapons in the backfield to cause problems for any team (Steele/Lanphear and company). While the Trinity O-Line is (in a word) massive and disciplined in what they do, the key to this game is going to be execution. If they are not focused on this crafty and well coached Sachems team, they could be in for quite a battle.

Plymouth faces a 1-1 Kennett team that was an extra point kick away from possibly 2-0 with momentum being what it is. With their confidence up after an outstanding performance last week over Stark, this could be an upset in the making. Every D IV team brings their absolute A game when they play Plymouth, so the Bobcats cannot look past this game to next week. In the first 2 games of the season the Eagles have allowed only 7 points, so they are not, (nor should they be) taken lightly.

Say what you will, a loss by the Pioneers or Bobcats is not so far outside the realm of possibility that it shouldn't be considered.

So, if the cards fall as most of us think they will, we will see the epic battle everyone is anticipating next Friday. Two unbeatens in a D IV clash with they hype we haven't seen in quite some time. But is the game just as big if one of them loses this week?  I'm just saying...
