My take on the Patriots: Sandy Creek being in the playoffs is nothing new, the class is though. After several years of being in AAAA they are now in AAA and in the playoffs. They haven't had the numbers that some of the other 6-AAA teams have had but they play sound defense and play ok on offense. I don't believe that they have enough athletes to keep up with FB though.

Early, Early, Monday before the game prediction: Flowery Branch 42, Sandy Creek 24
Check back on Thursday for the actual Game prediction.
