Pigskin Prophets

It's the final weekend of September, and it brings some great games that will help determine who is a contender in New Hampshire high school football. In Division I, Nashua North and South will meet in a Battle for the Bridge, while Concord heads to Exeter in a big showdown. In Division II, Bedford goes on the road for another big game at Bishop Guertin. In Division III, Milford welcomes newcomer Alvirne for the first time. And Windham and Plymouth could be playing for the top seed already in Division IV.

Now, on to the picks.
