Talking to a source who's seen a lot of Pac-5 and Orange County football this year, he seems to think football in the area is down this year overall, meaning that Edison isn't as good as one might think. Beating all those teams in the OC and Sunset League would mean more in different years. And that's why he thinks Lakewood has a chance. As for me, I think Lakewood has a chance if they can get off to a fast start. Many times this year they've started slow and had to come back. If they have to come back against Edison, good luck. But if they can hang early, maybe they can do it. They have their share of big-play athletes, and when you have that big-play capability, you can compete in any game. I'm gonna stick with my prediction of an Edison win early, but stay tuned... I've been wrong before.
Yes I think Edison is that good but I think Lakewood is up for the task and will beat them. I am a big Poly fan but am rooting for the Lancers tonight.
