The Guru’s Picks for Week 5

We’ve reached the fifth week of the high school football season here in North Carolina and the level of play is starting to heat up all across the state.  Beginning this week, many programs will begin conference action and for a lot of schools, the hopes of a conference championship are still within reach.

Something new that I am starting this week, I will now be offering my game-winners for each week to our CP Insider members.  Let’s see how I do this week, and for the record, I will be keeping a tally of my winning percentage.
