Portsmouth coming off a high scoring shootout win , West coming off the blowout.

Rivalry game for starts. A lot of emotion on the field for this one. I think Portsmouth starts off strong. I could see this being a close game at halftime. A lot like last year in that regard. But in the end I think west wins this one by 2-3 scores. Was a little worried about what West would bring to the table with losing basically the entire line. And south point was not the strongest of oppenents . But what I did see was a swarming defense , that is in amazing shape. That will absolutely fly to the ball , and play that great brand off west foootball that means coming up and laying the smack down . Into the second quarter you could already see the south point kids stopping and anticipating the contact . Portsmouth has that high skill set players but I think west’s defense is too much. West 29–12

I believe West also, but always need to know where Talon is lining up. Portsmouth is a good and up coming team like the old, power I
with 1 or 2 split and will run with a lead. There defense needs work and doesn't tackle well which is gonna be a nightmare for them when
Garrett's number is called. I'll take west in a close one.

Should be a lot rushing yards in this game

Parker is a stud from what I’ve heard. I know the west coaching staff long enough now , and fully trust they will make any adjustments needed to atleast keep him from having a break out game . Really Portsmouth’s apparent lack of defense is what I think desides this game. Arm tackles will not work

Hard to judge where this West team is at in my opinion right now due to not being challenged week 1. We do know though if Portsmouth continues playing defense how they did week 1 it could be a long week for the Trojans. However, I've heard they have a great running back in Parker. I think Portsmouth comes out with a chip on their shoulder after last years loss to West and I think they pull one out.
Trojans-28
West- 21

Parker is a heck of a back. And he has guys like Boehm blocking for him.
West has a good defense, especially against the run. If Portsmouth doesn't have a great passing game it will be easier to keep Parker in check, but tackling him on that fast track is still gonna be difficult and West hasn't had much luck playing at the Coliseum.

Valley scored 40 against the Trojans. West is better offensively than the Indians and a lot better on defense.
West wins this by a few scores.

Don't think Parker gets 300+ yards rushing on the West defense. Maybe 150. I think West wins in a close one.

[mattash]

Should be a lot of yards

[greygoose]

That West defense will key Parker for sure and the have the personnel to slow him down. Trojans defense is suspect and I think West takes this one by 2 scores.

[Matt77]

West takes this one.

[AllAboutTheU]

I think West defense is too strong.

This is to me the toughest game on Portsmouth’s schedule. We win this the sky is the limit. Valley was very small so we pushed them around a bit. This game will be a lot harder. Parker won’t get 300 but we showed a lot of weapons we could use. My heart says Portsmouth but gut says west. If Trojans defense doesn’t give up 40 points I think they pull it out. I expect a low scoring game. West is big and hit hard. Trojan line can expect better opponents on the lines.

Portsmouth must play better this week against the Senators........if the Trojan defense doesn't tighten up, West will win the game. The PHS offense can't be expected to carry this team week in and week out. It did vs. Valley, but West will prove to be a tougher opponent than the Indians.

The Trojans are very capable of winning this game..........GO TROJANS!!

[BurgGrad6]

I don’t see this one even being close. Portsmouth don’t have a defense. West valley wins by a few scores..

[Jolly P(irate)]

This will tell us a lot about the West Defense. I believe they win handily but am curious to see the stat sheet after this one.

[Bleeding Red]

Parker is the talk at PHS. Being overlooked are a couple of really good lineman, one I believe being recruited by MSU.

Parker will get his yards but I feel as though West is the overall better team.

I think this is closer than many think.

West 28
PHS 21

I believe west has a decent running game also. Should be a good game.

[VetteMan]

What is the record between these two schools in the last 10 years? I know in the past they have had some pretty spirited games.
