Wow, Port St Joe and Blountstown don't even crack your top ten.

[ColumbiaHighFan2017class 2,348]

They were in the orginal one I saw

[Sharkbait 509]

FWB at six with 2 wins in 3 years puzzles me but hey they did get a new coach.

[ColumbiaHighFan2017class 2,348]

I think FWB can be put in top 10 on the huntch they will make a turnaround but I would have port st Joe in top 10, I'll make my list tomarrow

[Steve ricks 18]

I meant to keep Port St Joe in their from earlier and not FWB, my fault PSJ is definately top 10, blountstown i got to see what they can do this year first but right know I got them out

[Sharkbait 509]

Blountstown is always talented and well coached every year I would expect nothing less this year. FWB will be good again and probably very soon but I think it will take this year. Your list looks good I would just have FWB out and PSJ and Blountstown in the 9 to 10 range maybe even tied for 10th.

I think PSJ is good for atleast #6 on that list

I think PSJ is good for atleast #6 on that list

If the young guys step up and the O-line gels maybe so.  I guess we will know more in a month, for all teams.

FWB lost their coach June 30 and just recently hired Philip Form. Big blow was losing their starting QB who transferred to rival Choctaw. FWB not ready yet IMO.

 

Tate graduated too many good football players to be a top 5 type team.

 

Catholic has a few very good players but not enough of them. Depth could be a problem. But maybe they'll get some transfers.

 

If Gulf Breeze can stay healthy I really believe they will have a very good season. They lost top two QB's early last year to injury. Those QB's will be back this year. Had other key injuries too. Deep talented senior class. No real studs yet but a bunch of div 2 type talent. QB is legit. I could see him getting an FCS offer. They have a good soph RB. It wasn't a fluke when they tied Navarre in spring game. Finally, here's the biggest reason they'll be much improved, they have a new coach. huge upgrade.

Anyone who puts FWB on a top 10 for football has no idea what they're talking about.

What is with Escambia? I heard they were supposed to drop off this year but they been put top 10 on all the lists

[uncleluke23 15]

I expect Pine Forest to make a deep run this year. Out of PF, Navarre, Niceville and Escambia, I think PF is better equipped to give Armwood a game in round 4. Team is loaded with legit speed on offense. If their secondary can play better than previous year's, they should be perfectly fine.

 

Tate got completely manhandled in the spring game by PF, so I don't expect much out of them. They have a couple of prospects but this team lost too much to contend.

 

I'm not sure what to make of Escambia yet. If their offense goes to a spread, they will give PF all kinds of trouble. Their defense has nice size but that side of the ball lost some good players.

I'm thinking pine Forrest wins the region but if my bold prediction holds true it will be vanguard and pine Forrest for right to go to state
