Region 5 as a whole has taken on a new role... region 6 has been the dominant region since realignment, but that's changed. Region five has won some games, but as a whole, top to bottom (4, for playoff purposes), six has usually advanced to play the region 7/8 survivors. I think that R 6 is down this year but that's not all of the equation, R 5 has strengthened significantly. With the decline of region 7( other than Peabody), I fully believe that whomever takes over as #1 from region 5 has a good shot at the semi's this season. Still early I know, but I don't see anyone standing in the way that they shouldn't have a great chance to beat.

I agree, it will be interesting to see how RS/Wav/HC plays out since LC plays 2 of the 3 and will have a good gage

From the start that everyone's off to, Lewis Co/Forrest would be favored over anyone from R6, unless someone really pulls it together in the next few weeks. I just mentioned those two, because I'm not too familiar with the other R5 teams, and although Hickman County's posters say that they're going to take the region (no offense intended), I've heard that before and will reserve judgement on them.

Seems like the theme in both regions 5 & 6 is inexperience. I think most will continue to get better. LC is no different with a lot of inexperienced players starting. I was a bit surprised in the first game with how crisp the offense was. There will most likely be some upsets and some teams fade as the year goes on.

Maybe Riverside isn't very good

Pretty good point so far. Injuries,penalties, turnovers, and just poor judgment plaguing panthers so far. Got a lot to clean up.lexington didn't even gain 200 yards of total offense and still put up 26 points. Tells u a little how bad rhs played last Friday.  As of right now region 5 definitely heads up better than their brethren from region 6.

Kind of surprising with 8 back on defense

Everyone deals with Inexperience every season to some degree... when you change coaches it compounds things by everyone learning new schemes, and just becoming comfortable in the system. Waverly has a good coach, as we do, but it's going to take time to settle in and get to the point where we can play every play without thinking first. Wavo will get there before us... we're on our fourth in four years.
