Date: Friday

Time: 7 p.m

Stanhope Elmore vs. Pike Road

Forecast: Pike Road wins 35-21

Analysis: In just the third meeting in these programs' history, Friday's game will break the 1-1 tie in this Class 6A game. Pike Road dominated Stanhope 52-14 a season ago and is the favorite for this year's game. Pike Road only lost one game in the entire month of September.

Date: Friday

Time: 7 p.m

Forecast: Prattville wins 42-39

analysis: Prattville struggled in conference play, falling to Vestavia Hills and Hoover after an undefeated start. Friday's game is a must-win for the Lions, as another loss would jeopardize their chances of a postseason bid in competitive Class 7A.

Montgomery Catholic vs. Headland

Forecast: Catholic wins 49-7

analysis: The undefeated Montgomery Catholic Knights overwhelm their opponents, outscoring teams 277-48 in six games. It's clear that no team has found the recipe to stop Catholic as it looks to become state champions again this year. Headland will have to play error-free to get past the Knights.
