Man, good on Elkhart for that game.

Penn vs Mishawaka should be a good one . This is the best passing Penn team that I have ever seen and I have been watching them since 1977 . Going up against a potent Mishawaka ground game . Mishawaka will try and limit Penn's possessions to keep that potent passing attack off the field .

Logansport (1-0) @ SB Adams (1-0) - Adams proved me wrong, I am riding with the Eagles this week. (May be the kiss of death)

SB Riley (1-0) @ Valparaiso (0-1) - Valpo had Penn's back against the wall. The 49-24 outcome does not give a true representation of this team's potential.

FW South (1-0) @ Saint Joseph's (1-0) - Riding with St. Joe until they play Penn

SB Wahington (0-1) @ Goshen (0-1) - Idk, both teams are bad.

Penn (1-0) @ Mishawaka (1-0) - This game makes me nervous, two years ago Penn walked into this game confident and got waxed....Penn's D did not look great against the Valpo rushing attack. I think this is going to be a tight game 35-34 Penn?

Marian (0-1) @ Culver Academy (0-1) - Marian needs to get better, but Mishawaka is a tall order for a small school team like the Knights.

New Prairie (0-1) @ NorthWood (0-1) -  I have zero idea, NorthWood looked bad against Columbia City and NP scored points against LaPorte, but I don't know which is better.

Warren Central (1-0) @ Elkhart (1-0) - Elkhart is going to learn what Indy Football looks like real fast Friday. Warren Central is head and shoulders better than Concord.

Penn's run D against Valpo was not good last week. Valpo got in their own way. 

I think this will either be a shootout or low scoring due to limited possessions.

Ended up being neither. Best Penn offense in a long time . The defense is where I might have some concerns . They have very good Linebackers, but the D line looks undersized . This won't be a problem until they run into 6A big boys in the post season .

Happy to be wrong, but I was surprised.

Welp.  Lol

PENN looked goooood.  
I would presume Mishawaka will be just fine moving forward.  
2 GREAT programs that look to make some noise this year.
