Weekend Peek

This week’s schedule

Skowhegan (0-2) at Lewiston (2-0)

Friday, 7 p.m.

Don’t let the records fool you: This is the Devils’ first real test. Both teams can throw the ball, too, which only adds to the entertainment value.

Brewer (0-2) at Edw. Little (0-2)

Friday, 7 p.m.

Easy come, easy go. In less than a year we’ve gone from watching the Red Eddies in the PTC final to talking about a mid-September game as perhaps their best chance to get a win.

Lawrence (2-0) at Oxf. Hills (0-2)

Friday, 7 p.m.

Mama always said don’t say anything at all if you can’t say something nice, so here goes: The Vikings get Mt. Ararat next Friday night.

Mt. Ararat (0-2) at Mt. Blue (1-1)

Friday, 7 p.m.

Style points and confidence probably matter for the Cougars, who get Lawrence and Bangor after this.

Leavitt (2-0) at Belfast (0-2)

Friday, 7 p.m.

Another long trip, another week when those nagging nicks and muscle pulls won’t hurt the Hornets.

Mtn. Valley (2-0) at Wells (2-0)

Friday, 7 p.m.

If the Warriors don’t stop the Falcons’ shutout streak here, we could be talking about it in late October.

Lisbon (2-0) at Boothbay (0-2)

Friday, 7 p.m.

This isn’t your older brother’s Greyhounds-Seahawks matchup. And don’t look now, but Lisbon already has played its two toughest games this side of the Campbell Conference quarterfinals.

Maranacook (0-2) at Liv. Falls (2-0)

Friday, 7 p.m.

OK, so nobody was nostalgic over the Battle For Route 17. It’s still good to have it back. Don’t think for a second that the Andies aren’t aware of the crisis the Black Bears presented their pals from Jay, either.

Winthrop (1-1) at Sacopee Valley (0-2)

Friday, 7 p.m.

Neither team has a player who started full-time in Class C varsity football last season. That, of course, is where the similarities between the defending regional champion Ramblers and expansion Hawks end.

Greely (1-1) at Gray-NG (1-1)

Friday, 7 p.m.

Winner of the Coach Shawn Austin Bowl remains a factor in the race for the fourth and final Western B playoff spot.

OOB (1-1) at Dirigo (2-0)

Saturday, 1:30 p.m.

Cougars might not reach their 54-point average against the brawny Seagulls, but they’re still the odds-on favorite at Harlow Park.

York (1-1) at Poland (0-2)

Saturday, 1:30 p.m.

Bad enough for the Knights that they face Western B’s heavy artillery early. Now the Wildcats come to town angry off a 41-12 loss to Cape.

Jay (2-0) at Oak Hill (1-1)

Saturday, 2 p.m.

Turnovers and penalties will tell the story for both teams.
