Ford City vs. Wilmington could be quite a game. I've seen Wilmington ranked in the top 5 "AA" teams in the state. Keystone Recruiting also today named Wilmington RB, Chris Burns as the #7 recruit in the state. Ford City traditionally doesn't show all their cards during meaningless games, and with SSA & Kittanning next on the schedule, look for them to leave a few plays in locker room. However this should give us some type of indication on just how good the Sabers will be this year.
Conventional thinking might say Kittanning and Ford City's 2007 teams don't have the expectations they did last year. It is true both those teams lost a tremendous amount of production offensively and even defensely, but the same can be said about a lot of "AA" team in WPIAL. Last year there was almost a dozen WPIAL "AA" teams with a 8-1 or 9-0 record, don't expect that to be the case this year. On paper after Jeanette and Aliquippa, it's anyone's guess. So not to build hype, but Ford City and Kittanning might have an even better chance in the playoff this year compared to last.
We'll see how things play out in 2007 starting on Friday night.....
