Read on to find out who will win, lose, or surprise in the Friday Night Forecast. Last week’s record: 35-11<h2>Tonight’s games to watch</h2><h2>Plant City (1-0) at Durant (1-0), 7:30 </h2>The rivals square off in their annual grudge match for the coveted Redman Cup. Last year, the Raiders snapped a two-year losing streak with a 17-14 victory. It might be as low scoring this time. After all, both teams put up more than 40 points in their season-opening victories.Putnam’s pick: Durant 28-27<h2>Gaither (0-1) at Plant (1-0), 7:30</h2>The Panthers, who started 0-2 last season before making a run to the state semifinals, gained some momentum by beating Carrollwood Day in last week’s opener. Waltez Clark, a Florida commit, was an all-purpose weapon on offense for Plant. The Cowboys, meanwhile, will try to get their running game going to avoid an 0-2 start.Putnam’s pick: Plant 28-20<h2>Mitchell (1-0) at Northeast (0-1), 7:30</h2>The Mustangs avenged last year’s season-opening loss to Gulf with a 41-26 victory in the rematch. The key will be how well the Vikings’ defense can contain Mitchell’s balanced — and potent — offensive attack.Putnam’s pick: Mitchell 35-21<h2>Wiregrass Ranch (1-0) at Clearwater (1-0), 7:30</h2>The Bulls, who averaged more than 40 points per game last season, kept that pace by scoring 48 in last week’s win over Cypress Creek. That production will be more difficult against the host Tornadoes, who recorded nine sacks and held Bartow to 91 yards of offense in a shutout victory.Putnam’s pick: Clearwater 26-21<h2>Largo (1-0) at Lakewood (1-0), 7:30</h2>After struggling throughout last season, the host Spartans got off to better start by beating Northeast in the opener. This will be another test to see how much Lakewood has turned things around. Last week, the Packers showed their resolve by holding off a late rally in a win over Pinellas Park.Putnam’s pick: Largo 14-10<h2>Tonight’s games</h2>Hernando CountyCanterbury at Hernando Christian, 7Putnam’s pick: Hernando Christian 24-21Weeki Wachee at Orangewood Christian, 7Putnam’s pick: Weeki Wachee 14-13Citrus at Springstead, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Springstead 34-7Hollins at Hernando, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Hernando 20-7Pasco at Nature Coast, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Nature Coast 30-13Central at Interlachen, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Central 22-20Hillsborough CountyJesuit at Palm Beach Benjamin, 6:30Putnam’s pick: Jesuit 31-24Sarasota Booker at Berkeley Prep, 7Putnam’s pick: Berkeley Prep 21-14Cambridge Christian at Cocoa Beach, 7Putnam’s pick: Cocoa Beach 28-26Sarasota Christian at Bell Creek Academy, 7Putnam’s pick: Sarasota Christian 24-20Tampa SLAM at Winter Haven All Saints Academy, 7Putnam’s pick: All Saints 16-14Fort Myers Bishop Verot at Tampa Catholic, 7Putnam’s pick: Bishop Verot 35-31West Palm Beach Cardinal Newman at Carrollwood Day, 7Putnam’s pick: Cardinal Newman 28-21East Bay at Hillsborough, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Hillsborough 19-13Oviedo at Sickles, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Oviedo 35-12Plant City at Durant, 7:30 Putnam’s pick: Durant 28-27Armwood at Sumner, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Armwood 37-14Alonso at Robinson, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Alonso 35-14Steinbrenner at River Ridge, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Steinbrenner 27-16Palmetto at Newsome, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Newsome 21-20Strawberry Crest at Middleton, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Strawberry Crest 27-21Chamberlain at Freedom, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Chamberlain 24-6Gaither at Plant, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Plant 28-20Lennard at Spoto, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Lennard 35-28Jefferson at Leto, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Jefferson 28-0King at Brandon, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Brandon 21-0Riverview at Sarasota, 7:30Putnam’s pick:Indian Rocks Christian at Seffner Christian, 7:30Putnam’s pick: IRC 17-13Wharton at Tampa Bay Tech, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Tampa Bay Tech 34-21Bloomingdale at Blake, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Bloomingdale 20-19Pasco CountyBishop McLaughlin at Keswick Christian, 7Putnam’s pick: Keswick Christian 26-20Discovery at Zephyrhills Christian, 7Putnam’s pick: Zephyrhills Christian 27-19Fivay at North Marion, 7Putnam’s pick: Fivay 28-23Anclote at Sunlake, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Sunlake 27-6Pasco at Nature Coast, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Nature Coast 30-13Steinbrenner at River Ridge, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Steinbrenner 27-16Mitchell at Northeast, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Mitchell 35-21Hudson at Gulf, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Gulf 31-16Zephyrhills at Wesley Chapel, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Zephyrhills 37-20Wiregrass Ranch at Clearwater, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Clearwater 26-21Land O’ Lakes at Cypress Creek, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Land O’ Lakes 20-13Pinellas CountyShorecrest at Lakeside Christian, 7Putnam’s pick: Shorecrest 28-7Naples First Baptist at Calvary Christian, 7Putnam’s pick: Calvary Christian 21-14Bishop McLaughlin at Keswick Christian, 7Putnam’s pick: Keswick Christian 26-20Lakeland Santa Fe Catholic at St. Petersburg Catholic, 7Putnam’s pick: SPC 33-21Mitchell at Northeast, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Mitchell 35-21Hollins at Hernando, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Hernando 20-7Wiregrass Ranch at Clearwater, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Clearwater 26-21Indian Rocks Christian at Seffner Christian, 7:30Putnam’s pick: IRC 17-13Boca Ciega at St. Petersburg, 7:30Putnam’s pick: St. Petersburg 28-14Palm Harbor University at Tarpon Springs, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Tarpon Springs 34-13Sebring at Clearwater Central Catholic, 7:30Putnam’s pick: CCC 21-13East Lake at Pinellas Park, 7:30Putnam’s pick: East Lake 27-21Lakewood Ranch at Seminole, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Lakewood Ranch 21-20Largo at Lakewood, 7:30Putnam’s pick: Largo 14-10</div></body>
