Aaron Daniel and Jon Lunceford take a look at the Class 7A bracket and see if their preseason predictions of Hoover defeating Central-Phenix City in the state final hold up.

Opelika is last year's state runner-up. The Bulldogs have suffered numerous injuries throughout the season and lost three games to end up as the third seed from Region 3. However, Opelika's playing their best football down the stretch including picking up a win over region champion Wetumpka. Daphne is in their second season under former Alabama defensive lineman Kenny King, and his influence is noticeable with a gritty line that shut down Baldwin County in Week 10 to keep the Tigers out of the playoffs. Which will move on to a possible 2nd round date against a favorite out of the South, Park Crossing?

The Auburn Tigers have just one loss on the season, a 34-28 nail-biter with the state's No. 1 team in Central-Phenix City.

The Warriors have played just as stingy defensively as Auburn averaging 8.9 points allowed per game. Can they find the offense needed to get to a rematch with region champion McGill-Toolen?

McGill-Toolen seeks their third straight 7A Region 1 title and to show they're still the team to beat in the southern half of the state come playoff time. Meanwhile, Fairhope hopes to cap off a stunning turnaround from 2-8 to 8-1 (so far) on the season with a region crown. Fairhope is the only other school to win a 7A Region 1 title aside from McGill.
