Portland (1-3) @ Windham (1-3)
Portland is on a three-game losing streak, but the Bulldogs’ three loses have come against the SMAA’s three top teams.
Windham made Gorham’s ground game look sluggish Friday, but Portland’s offense is entirely different. The Eagles’ strong defensive line will need to get pressure on Portland star quarterback Chris Treister and force him to make mistakes. Easier said than done.
Prediction: Portland 23, Windham 14
Westbrook (1-3) @ Bonny Eagle (4-0)
When Westbrook travels to Buxton to play the defending Class A state champions, a win could turn around what has been a difficult season.
Unfortunately for the Blue Blazes, Bonny Eagle is too deep and too talented for Westbrook to pull an upset.
Prediction: Bonny Eagle 42, Westbrook 6
York (3-1) @ Lake Region (0-4)
The schedule gets tougher for the Lakers, who fell to Gray-New Gloucester last week. Costly turnovers cost Lake Region late week; they’ll need to limit their mistakes against a powerful York team.
Prediction: York 38, Lake Region 7
Last Week’s Record: 1-2
Season: 3-2
