Join FOX10 Sports Director Emily Cochran and Special Projects Producer Robert Ristaneo each week as they break down the biggest matchups in Alabama high school football’s Region 1, dive into the latest from South Alabama, Auburn, and Alabama, and tackle the top storylines around the NFL. Insight, analysis, and plenty of football talk—all in one place.
Week 9 is here and multiple region titles are on the line this week!
The week is headlined by the heavyweight matchup between Vigor and Williamson, but Gulf Shores will take on a red hot Spanish Fort team with the 5A Region 1 title on the line.
In the Private School divisions, McGill-Toolen heads up to Montgomery to take on Montgomery Catholic, Bayside and Mobile Christian face off for the region title, and we get one of the premier Mobile rivalries in the Battle of Old Shell Road between UMS-Wright and St. Paul’s.
Down in 3A, the Jackson Aggies and T.R. Miller Tigers square off, both looking to solidify their playoff spots, and in 1A, the Leroy Bears will try to fend off the Southern Choctaw Indians who look to stay in the mix for one of the final playoff spots.
