What was a mystery in the preseason has become clear to some folks by Week 2.
Others still aren't so sure about anything.
Here goes anyway:
Williamstown (1-0) at Lenape (0-1). Two teams that want to elbow their way into the WJFL American and South Jersey Group 4 conversation get a chance to show their credentials.
Williamstown's depth and speed showed in the second half against Eastern. Sophomore Marquis Little and senior Chris Inge are playmakers, and the Braves have a weapon in kicker Mike Burke.
Lenape lost its grip in the opener against Cherokee. Can these Indians shake off disappointment? Pick: Williamstown, 24-20.
Seneca (1-0) at Moorestown (1-0). The Golden Eagles never really recovered from an upset loss to Moorestown on a September Sunday last season.
This Seneca team has lower expectations, and should play with abandon. But Moorestown quarterback Andrew Lisa has weapons galore in the Quakers' no-huddle, spread offense. Pick: Moorestown, 27-13.
Cherokee (1-0) at Eastern (0-1). The Chiefs aren't the same team that went 12-0 last season, and the Vikings aren't the same team that went 1-9.
Cherokee's ground game found its stride in the second half against Lenape behind Zaire Williams and Nick Follet. Pick: Cherokee, 21-10.
Cinnaminson (0-1) at Holy Cross (1-0). The Pirates get another chance at a top division foe after a tough loss to Willingboro. They will need to get past at least one if they are going to challenge for the Patriot title.
The Lancers beat a solid Florence team behind a sturdy offensive line and dangerous wideout Lloyd Smith. Cinnaminson's three-year starters have to seize this moment. Pick: Cinnaminson, 19-18.
Kingsway (1-0) at Triton (1-0). Two teams with a chance to go 2-0 in the Royal and set themselves up for a special season.
Kingsway is riding high after upsetting Delsea behind a swarming defense and quarterback Tyler Barnholt. Like Cinnaminson, Triton has several three-year starters who don't want to miss this opportunity. Pick: Triton, 24-20.
Absegami (1-0) at Holy Spirit (0-1). The No. 1 Spartans are 0-1 on paper only, as they forfeited a 41-16 victory over Oakcrest for use of an ineligible player, who wasn't a starter.
Absegami could be a factor in the Cape American and South Jersey Group 4 behind junior quarterback Rashad Kinlaw. Holy Spirit won't fumble four times again, as the Spartans did against Oakcrest. Pick: Holy Spirit, 31-13.
