Games to watch
Robinson (4-0) at Jesuit (6-0), 7:30
Outlook: The Knights, who are off to their best start in years, are dealing with COVID issues that forced their starting quarterback and kicker to quarantine. Being depleted does not bode well against the Tigers, who could likely finish the regular season undefeated.
Pinkos’ pick: Jesuit by 42
Putnam’s prediction: Jesuit 42-14
Victory Christian (4-1) at Calvary Christian (5-0), 7
Outlook: This is the biggest test of the season so far for the Warriors. Expect a high-scoring game. Last week, the Storm fell short in a 41-35 loss to Berkeley Prep.
Pinkos’ pick: Victory Christian by 10
Putnam’s prediction: Calvary Christian 35-34
Wesley Chapel (3-1) at River Ridge (3-2), 7:30
Outlook: Both teams are trying to rebound after losing last week. Points could be at a premium. The Wildcats have allowed 34 points all season. The Knights have given up 67.
Pinkos’ pick: River Ridge by 19
Putnam’s prediction: River Ridge 28-13
Sickles (2-2) at East Lake (3-2), 7:30
Outlook: Three of the Gryphons’ four games have been decided by a combined eight points. This could be another tight one that could come down to the last possession.
Pinkos’ pick: East Lake by 21
Putnam’s prediction: East Lake 20-13
Tampa Bay Tech (2-3) at Armwood (3-1)
Outlook: The Hawks have reeled off three straight wins since losing by a point to Bloomingdale in the season opener. The Titans know all about close outcomes. Twice, they have lost on the final play of regulation.

Putnam’s prediction: Armwood 27-26
