A Quick Realization

With the final two weeks upon us, what do you usually get? Teams do senior night festivities (some did theirs last week as some can play the last two on the road). It's always a sad moment. Some players will be playing at the next level, some will hang it up after playing. As I go about this, I made this realization, man has the regular season flown by quickly. Just yesterday, I swear it was August and now it's October and we're talking about the regular season coming to an end. Well with that being said, here are the game previews for Week number nine.
