Jim says: How have I gotten this deep into the fall without applauding Princeton’s remarkable season? The Tigers are no fluke, winning with straight-up, smash-mouth football centered on a ground attack that runs over, not around, opponents. Game-toughened Rocori is always a test this time of year. The winner emerges with hard-earned battle scars. The pick: Princeton 22, Rocori 20
David says: Classes 4 and 5A are where it’s at this season. Good football with a true state tournament feel make for good watching. Cullen Drews, Brody Kok and Noah Wells aren’t the names of a good Princeton law firm, but they have rambled for a combined 259.4 yards and 31 touchdowns on the ground this season. The pick: Princeton 24, Rocori 14
