Friday Night Lights
PARSIPPANY HILLS (1-5) @ WEST MORRIS (4-2)
Brian Kenney: Is there any world where we don’t say “Joey Pizza delivers” for Par Hills? Guy had 4 sacks last week in a losing effort against J-Town last week. This week he will be throwing people around like dough to the tune of 2 sacks and 9 tackles. However, the Pack is howling mad about last week’s upset, and is going hunting for a W this Friday. (Wow, I have never used so many cliche phrases in one prediction, meh, maybe, I don’t know). Noah Turner scores on a late rushing TD to put the Pack up for good in this one. PICK: WMC 28-17
George Muha: If you are a Par Hills fan you are probably wondering if making the playoffs is a possibility. It’ll take some outside help but wins against West Morris and Chatham (next week) will deliver a ton of much needed Power Points and just might get it done. But beating an angry Wolfpack team coming off a big loss to rival Mount Olive is easier said than done. Coach Albano has had epic battles against the Wolves through the years so I would expect nothing less in this one. I am betting on the Wolves but I guarantee this will be way closer than anyone thinks. PICK: WMC 34-29
PEQUANNOCK (3-3) @ HOPATCONG (0-5)
Brian Kenney: I have to say the ‘Quan has been paying well and has evened their record going into the Tiger Den this Friday. I expect a defensive battle for most of the game but at some point Dave “Rigs” Riglioso will scramble for a TD and throw for another to make the difference for the Panthers. PICK: ‘Quan 14-7
George Muha: The Chief’s are hungry for that first win and getting it in front of the home stands would be ideal. But I think the Quan has just found their mojo and if they want to make the playoffs they must win this game (and next week against Boonton too – but let’s just stay focused on this week for the moment). Look for the Panthers Colin Brath to have 75-yards and a touchdown as I am starting him as a flex player on my fantasy team (no pressure big boy). PICK: Quan 30-23
