North is a lot better than I ever dreamed they would be this year, but I would still favor Southwestern at home in a close one. The Warriors were much better than their record a year ago, getting a good football man like French has really solidified them. And to me getting the three seed does matter to some degree, because even though Harlan Co. is way down, I think they will still win that district, and do you really want to go there for your opener? But it really only matters for the first week, because unless Harris gets injured somewhere along the line, it's basically a guarantee that it will be PC and Southern in the regional title game.
