It’s Week 11 of the high school football season and we’re knocking on the door of the state playoffs. Perhaps the biggest game on the slate is across the Savannah River. Midland Valley (4-5) travels to North Augusta (8-1) for a rivalry showdown in the Jacket’s Nest. The Yellow Jackets are undefeated in region play and are cruising to a top seed, but the Mustangs would love nothing more than to pull off the upset here. In Augusta, Richmond Academy (6-2) hosts Evans (3-5) as the Musketeers are jockeying for postseason seed position. They currently sit at No. 15 out of 59 teams in Class 5A. At No. 40, Evans could bolster its résumé with an upset here. Cross Creek (0-8) hosts Thomson (3-5) in a region matchup. The Bulldogs currently sit No. 27 in the Class 3A PSR standings, so they’d be in good shape with a win on Friday. Burke County, meanwhile, hits the road to face Westside (4-4). The Bears (5-3) are ranked 19 th . Over in Columbia County, rivals Lakeside (0-8) and Greenbrier (3-5) clash at the Wolf’s Den.
