Top 5 Games

Thursday

Leon (1-1) at No. 7 Mosley (2-0): After two weeks, were not quite sure what to think of Mosley, a win over a solid Leon team that upset Suwannee in Week 1 might give us a clue.

Friday

Godby (1-1) at No. 4 Niceville (1-1): A week after getting shocked on the road at Escambia, the Eagles will get another tough challenge from state power Godby.

Rickards (2-0) at No. 3 Choctawhatchee (2-0): Rickards could take a serious step towards gaining a lot of respect with a win over a solid Choctaw team. Good test for Choctaw as well, will help come playoff time.

Pace (1-1) at Pine Forest (1-1): Two teams just on the cusp of reaching the top ten ranking, the winner likely sneaks in, two dark horse sleepers as well.

Arnold (1-1) at No. 9 Walton (2-0): Good test for Azende Ray and the Braves going up against a solid Marlin defense.
