Can the Warriors repeat their 33-14 win over West Bloomfield from Week 6? 24. Allen Park, 10-0, Division 3. A good mix between running and passing makes the Jags a tough out. 23. Temperance Bedford, 9-1, Division 2. Teams had better know how to stop the veer option -- or they’re in trouble. 22. West Bloomfield, 6-4, Division 1. The Lakers are much better than when they lost to Southfield A&T in Week 6. 21. Benton Harbor, 10-0, Division 4. Elliot Uzelac’s Tigers are the real deal. 20. Birmingham Groves, 9-1, Division 2. Against Brother Rice, it will be the Battle for Birmingham. 19. DeWitt, 9-1, Division 3. Only Mason stands in the way of a game against Orchard Lake St. Mary’s. 18. Midland Dow, 9-1, Division 2. Fenton will be a worthy opponent this week. 17. Chelsea, 10-0, Division 3. This game against Coldwater is a rematch of last season’s state semifinal. 16. Birmingham Detroit Country Day, 10-0, Division 4. The Yellowjackets should roll into a semifinal clash with River Rouge. 15. Macomb Dakota, 7-3, Division 1. The up-and-down Cougars are the upswing. 14. Clarkston, 8-2, Division 1. The Wolves have been outstanding the last four weeks. 13. Rockford, 7-3, Division 1.

Oak Park should provide a test this week. 4. Muskegon, 9-1, Division 3. Can East Grand Rapids give the Big Reds a game? 3. Novi Detroit Catholic Central, 10-0, Division 1. The Shamrocks keep “whamming” their way to the end zone. 2. Walled Lake Western, 9-1, 2. Hopefully, the alarm clock went off against South Lyon. 1. Detroit Cass Tech, 10-0, 1. Can anyone match Cass’ speed? No.
