Overall, it was a pretty lackluster week 1 for the MAC. Reynolds and Roberson struggled on offense, while McDowell couldn't stop anyone. Some good games this week.
Asheville @ Providence Day
It's a whole different animal this week for the cougars. They looked good against Tuscola with McDowell transfer Ellis scoring 4 TD's. Providence Day will look to rebound after losing to Weddington. This could get ugly.

Enka @ Pisgah
Enka was impressive in week 1 totally dominating Owen. The bad thing is, Owen is one of the 2 or 3 worst teams in WNC. Pisgah lost to an excellent Brevard team and should win this one fairly easily. If Enka keeps it close or pulls off the upset, it will be a good year for the Jets.

Erwin @ Mountain Heritage
This is one of the top games in the state this week. Erwin thrashed Daniel Boone and Heritage ran all over Chase. Can Erwin stop the powerful rushing attack of Mountain Heritage? Can Heritage stop the prolific passing game of Erwin? Should be a terrific game but Heritage is too strong at home and up front.

Mitchell @ McDowell
The Titans couldn't slow down the rushing attack of RS and had trouble up front and on special teams allowing great field position and a long Kickoff return TD. The passing game looked good as they passed for 200 yards but struggled to establish a ground game. Mitchell will be much better on defense than RS and McDowell will likely struggle to score.

Owen @ North Buncombe
North was so close to winning week 1 but lost late. Owen was hapless and will struggle to win a game this year.

Reynolds @ Shelby
It doesn't get any easier for the Rockets. Shelby beat Kings Mountain in week 1 and will be hard to stop, especially at home. Could the Rockets start out 0-4 with their tough schedule?

Roberson @ East Rutherford
Roberson couldn't get anything going against a good Watauga team. They can't overlook a much-improved East Rutherford team. This could be an upset but the Rams win a close one.
