[More Cowbell]

First off, I'd like to congratulate everyone on this thread for keeping things civil. I've read a lot of your comments, and it seems the fans from both sides are being very respectful and positive toward each other.

As for the game, Lawrence and Shelby Valley are each 3-0, with two of each team's wins coming against outmanned opponents. The difference is in the third win; while SV did notch a convincing victory over a pretty good Pike Central team, Lawrence owns a win over an even better team in Sheldon Clark.

Based on each teams' accomplishments so far, you have to give the edge to Lawrence. Coupled with the home-field advantage, and I believe that despite a good effort from SV, it should be about a 7-10 point margin for the Bulldogs.
