Massey predicts easy Lansing Sexton win over Northwest
The Massey Ratings computer predicts Lansing Sexton will beat Northwest by three touchdowns -- 37-18.
See prediction here.
Of course, the Massey computer was wrong last week when it picked Belleville to beat the Mounties.
St. Johns is the only common opponent so far this year that both Northwest and Lansing Sexton have faced. The Mounties lost to St. Johns in Week 2, 35-20, while Sexton fell to them Friday, 35-28 in overtime. Redwings win thriller in overtime.
It'll be a tough one for the Mounties on Friday. But a three touchdown difference seems a bit much.
In fact, if the Mounties play their best ball of the season the game appears winnable. Perhaps their underdog status will inspire them.

Massey Ratings predicts Saint Johns victory Thursday
For what it's worth, the Massey Ratings computer predicts Saint Johns will beat Northwest on Thursday, 32-20.
The Mounties are still searching for their first win against the Redwings, having gone 0-4 since they first played in 2005.
Two years ago, Northwest lost in a 49-41 shoot out. (see Rivals Archive for all the scores).
Saint Johns went 7-2 in the regular season last year and lost in the first round of the playoffs. The Redwings beat Charlotte last week in the season opener.
The Mounties will likely have their hands full in their home opener Thursday evening. But if they can keep up the momentum their offense showed in the second half last week, and if they can hold Saint Johns under 30 points, an upset is possible.
