Football faces week four

PCHS (3-1) – OPEN

After a big region win over Clements, Phil Campbell will have an off week. The Bobcats will be back in action next week when they host Haleyville.

RBHS (0-2) hosts THS (2-2)

The Red Bay Tigers are coming off an offweek in an unusual position, looking for their first win.

The Tigers are 0-2 with losses to Hamilton 40-24 and Lexington 34-6. They will face the Tharptown Wildcats, who are coming off a tough two-game skid against region opponents, losing to Colbert County 63-7 and Lexington 67-0.

Red Bay won this game this past year 53-0.

RHS (4-0) hosts Lawrence Co. (0-3)

The Golden Tigers are coming off two easy region wins against Mae Jemison 44-10 and Brewer 53-0. Don’t expect this week to be too competitive, either; Lawrence County hasn’t been able to generate much offense so far this year, losing to Hazel Green 40-2, West Point 14-7 and Ardmore 27-7.

Russellville won this game in 2020, 27-18.

The Golden Tigers have dominated this series with a record of 23-5.

VHS (0-3) hosts Waterloo (0-4)

The Vina Red Devils are coming off an offweek, having had to forfeit this past week’s game to Decatur Heritage. They will face the Waterloo Cougars, who are having a rough go of it this year as well.

The Cougars are 0-4 and haven’t scored but 26 points. They lost to Marion County 35-6 – a team that beat Vina 48-0.

The Cougars were shut out by Hubbertville 49-0 and Phillips 12-0, and they lost to Hackleburg 40-20.

Vina leads this series with a record of 27-18.
