I know I is a tad early with this story, but I wuz eatin' lunch the other day at McDonald's and I struck up a conversation with a guy sittin' next to me.

I said, &#8221Wanna hear a Michigan joke?“

The guy next to me replied, &#8221Well, before you tell that joke, you should know something. I'm 6-foot tall and weigh 200 pounds, and I am a Michigan grad. The guy sitting next to me is 6-2 and weighs 225, and he's a Michigan grad. The fella next to him is 6-5 and weighs 250, and he's a Michigan grad. Now, you still wanna tell that joke?“

I jest looked at the first guy and said, &#8221No, not if I'm gonna have to explain it three times.“

Ennywho, I had me a perfect week last week with an 11-0 record to bring the season mark to 64-19 (.771 percentage). Let's see if I can duplicate that, maybe even do the same thing as I did last week, too.

Ironton at Ports. West: I'm glad this game is on ONN where people will be able to see it. I wuz afraid it'd git stuck on NBC. Ironton 28, West 21.

Fairland at Coal Grove: I is afraid the Dragons will leave in a &#8221Huff.“ Coal Grove 22, Fairland 14.

River Valley at Rock Hill: If Sesame Street wuz doin' this game, it would be brought to you by the letter &#8221R“ for River Valley, Rock Hill, Raiders and Redmen. Oh yeah, and &#8221rout.“ Rock Hill 42, River Valley 6.

South Point at Chesapeake: Tell coach McDavid not to have the eye doctor check his players. They ain't seein' double. It's just the Methax twins. Chesapeake 22, South Point 14.

Lucasville Valley at Symmes Valley: I could take the easy way out and say Valley is gonna win. Welp,

might be nuts, but how 'bout the upset special? Lucasville 27, Symmes Valley 21.

Portsmouth Notre Dame at Green: The Titans will be feelin' sick after Green gives them some &#8221Castro“ oil. Green 28, Notre Dame 14.

Waverly at Wheelersburg: Pickin' Waverly to win is like readin' a book. Of course, it's from the fiction section. Wheelersburg 26, Waverly 7.

Others: New Lexington over Portsmouth, Ashland over Mason County, Gallipolis over Jackson, the Flintstones over Russell.
