Pigskin Prophets: Week 6
The football schedule starts a night earlier this week, as some schools have decided to move games in order to avoid playing on Yom Kippur.
The football schedule starts a night earlier this week, as some schools have decided to move games in order to avoid playing on Yom Kippur. Three games - Nashua North at Nashua South, Merrimack at Keene, Pinkerton at Exeter - will be played Thursday. A big game looms Friday in Division III, as Milford heads to Bedford in a game where the loser will likely not control its own playoff destiny. And in Division II, Bishop Guertin and Dover meet for a battle of teams without a division loss.
