TOP 10 KICKOFF CLASSICS: No. 5 Plant at Venice

byJoshua Wilson

5. Plant at Venice

When: Friday, 7:30 p.m.

Where: Powell-Davis Stadium, Venice

Radio: Venice – WENG 1530 AM & 107.5 FM, Englewood (Tape Delayed – Saturday, 12:00 p.m.)

Why: This is another game that just has WOW written all over it. Both teams which reach the Class 7A regional semifinals last season enter the season with high expectations once again. With the Panthers and Indians both returning a majority of their starters from last season’s teams, this kickoff classic will be an excellent test to see where they are at before the open the season officially next week. Plant will travel to Ladd-Pebbles Stadium in Mobile to take on Paul Bryant, Alabama as part of an Alabama vs. Florida showdown while Venice will host one of Georgia’s top powerhouse teams in Camden County. Overall, this game could just be the start of a season for both teams that could go very deep in the playoffs.

Predictions
USA TODAY HSS Score Predictor: Venice 24, Plant 20
Josh’s Prediction: Venice 21, Plant 20

Who do you think will win?
