Opening Drive (Oct. 15): Feeling like fall

Cooler weather is expected for this week’s games, actually making it feel like October.

It won’t have too much of an impact on the games, which can only help raise the stakes of some of these critical region games down the stretch.

Aside from Oakland-Riverdale, several other games have big playoff seeding implications this week. Franklin at Brentwood, Goodpasture at CPA, King’s Academy at DCA, McCallie at Father Ryan and Pope John Paul II at MUS are just a few of the region games going down this week.
