37 points is huge...

14.5 points makes you get more than two TDs... bettors would love it.

This early in the season, the computer ratings are not reliable. 

I have all the actual game results since 1999. Sagarin reaches peak accuracy after 4-5 games. Then it starts predicting over 80-percent correctly (88% correct since 1999).

[footballer_02]

Caston at NM - give me NM in a close one. 30-28.

Culver at Triton - Triton over Culver 28-24. 

North Judson at SC - North Judson over SC. 60-12.

Winamac at Pioneer - Pioneer over Winamac. 35-21.

Caston over NM 42-21... 

Suspect the Culver/Triton game to be a close one. 

[littledog]

Caston at NM - Comets stay strong with their best start since 2009. Comets win 28-14

Culver at Triton - Triton gets in the win column. Cavs look to have a tough season ahead of them. - Trojans win 21-7

NJSP at SC - SC's young team has a ways to go. Good week for the jays to get some reps in after the injury last week to the big man. Jays win 60-0

Winamac at Pioneer - Panthers zero in on Rugg and limit the Warriors O. Panthers win 28-6

I'm working on the HNAC helmets today. Please let me know if these are different from what the teams are wearing this year.

Better yet, if you can post clear pictures of the 2026 helmets/logos and/or describe them -- that would be super helpful.

Appreciate any input!

I know North Judson's is a little different this year. Looks like  @Jays has the photo in his bio.

Thanks. I can work with this, but do you have a view of the right side of the helmet? Do you know the color of gold? (looks like "Vegas gold" or very close)

Is there one blue stripe or two on the crown of the helmet? What does it say above the facemask on the forehead?

Your Culver helmet is actually of Culver Military Academy. Culver Community helmets are plain black with no decals.

Thanks. Black facemask, as well?

Best pic I could find. So it doesn't have the Cavs logo as a decal on the right side?

Correct. Black facemask and no decal. Just all black.

[TightEndOpenAgain]

NM I believe is going with a single black stripe on the white helmet. Staggered NM on left side. Numbers on right side

 

Caston at NM. Caston probably the favorite on paper. The game most likely stays tight most of the way

 

Triton over Culver by 3ish scores at home

 

Jay fans will enjoy getting home early from SC. Running clock to begin 2nd half.

 

Winamac might hang around for a bit with Pioneer. But in the end Pioneer wins very comfortably

[FarmerFran]

Caston at NM - Comets win comfortably and will be 3-0 for the first time since 2009.

Culver at Triton - Trojans

North Judson at SC - Jays 

Winamac at Pioneer - Panthers

Thanks. For numbers on the right, decal on the left, I've been putting the non-numbers on the right just because I think it is better for this purpose.

[RingLeader]

Caston is legit, will have running clock on Warriors

Triton Culver is toss up

NJ will rest people early

Best Winamac team since 2021, Pioneer freshman QB has been stellar. Should be interesting at Pit. Too close to call.

Its Vegas gold, a double blue stripe down the middle and on the front is L2L

Believe the last time Judson had a decal was the 70's
