The blog and its writer hate predicting things. Because we’re usually wrong, people get all mad, and it’s a huge mess.
But we did anyway when we put out the preseason power poll and All-Area teams.
So let’s check in on how those prognosticating skills are coming along.
Preseason Power Poll
1. Auburn High: (5-0), still rolling, still No. 1, unanimously for the first time this week, and a top-5 team statewide.
2. Opelika: (4-1), had a bit of a hiccup against Dothan, just ended Vigor’s 19-game winning streak, currently No. 6 in the power poll.
3. Loachapoka: (4-1), looked invincible until Reeltown knocked them off last week, currently No. 5.
3. Reeltown: (4-1), lost a close one to Dadeville and has blown everyone out since, currently No. 3.
5. Valley: (4-1), lost to Auburn, but has handled everyone else easily, currently No. 4.
6. Dadeville: (4-1), top-10 team statewide, had a bad one against another top-10er, Trinity, currently No. 7.
7. Tallassee: (3-2), been a bit up-and-down, a loss to 4A Chilton County has them receiving votes in the most recent poll.
7. Central: (5-0), still undefeated, but isn’t blowing people up like it was in the first three weeks, currently No. 2.
9. Lanett: (2-3), looks like they’re taking a little while to get into Cliff Story’s system, currently unranked.
10. Beauregard: (4-1), close loss to Eufaula is their only blemish, currently No. 9.
10. Lee-Scott: (3-2), bounced back from a tough early slate with three straight wins, currently No. 10.
Others receiving votes: Smiths Station: (2-3), three losses by a combined 15 points has knocked them out of consideration right now.
Chambers Academy: (1-4), followed up an impressive season opener against Springwood with four not-so-impressive losses, currently not ranked.
Ones we missed: Ballard Christian: (6-0), in their second year of existence, the Eagles have only really been tested once so far this season, currently No. 8.
Springwood: (4-2), the Ronnie Sikes reclamation project is on in full effect, currently tied with Lee-Scott at No. 10.
That’s not bad, right? Three spot on, only two that were in the poll are currently out and only two that were out are currently in? C-minus?
On to the All-Area team…
Preseason All-Area Team
Offense
QB - Calvin Jenkins, Auburn: no-brainer, has accounted for 997 yards and 16 touchdowns against only one interception so far.
HB - Corey Grant, Opelika: ditto, has already surpassed his rushing total from last year, with 705 yards and 10 scores.
HB - Mike Smith, Tallassee: we’re starting to look pretty good at this, huh? Smith leads the Tigers with 596 yards and seven touchdowns.
HB - Will Garner, Lee-Scott: after battling the flu for a couple of weeks, is still pacing the Warriors with around 500 yards.
WR - Rod Austin, Smiths Station: had his first real breakout game of the season last week, up to 17 catches for 268 yards and four scores.
WR - Kent Heard, Opelika: has gotten lost at times in the Bulldogs’ loaded offense, but has 12 catches for 122 yards and two scores, including a huge one against Enterprise.
TE - Terrance Spinks, Opelika: ditto for Spinks, battled the flu but is coming on as of late, has 10 catches for 150 and a score.
OL - Kyle Brown, Beauregard: the Hornets are averaging 203 rushing yards per game, he also has two tackles for loss, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery on defense.
OL - John Hix, Auburn: the Tigers are averaging 377 yards per game.
OL - Darius Poole, Loachapoka: the Indians are at about 330 per game, and that took a big hit in the Reeltown loss.
OL - Desmond Tolbert, Dadeville: the Tigers’ line has helped the offense not skip much of a beat, but the numbers are a little down from last year.
OL - Ucambre Williams, Central: the Red Devils are an offensive juggernaut, racking up 315 rushing yards per game.
ATH - Darren Daniel, Central: the quarterback hasn’t been a huge part of the offense, but they haven’t needed him to, has accounted for 606 yards and five scores.
ATH - Kris James, Beauregard: had rushed for 100 or more in every game but one, up to 628 yards and five scores.
K - Jared Danford, Valley: kicked the longest field goal in school history (47 yards), but has oddly struggled on extra points, is 3-3 on field goals and 15-19 on extra points for 24 total points.
Ones We Missed: QB - Kyle Caldwell, Dadeville: could go under kicker as well, leads the area with 992 passing yards and also leads the area with 32 points kicking.
HB - Deon Hill, Central: stepped in admirably for Orwin Smith, has 769 yards and 10 scores this year.
HB - Jacob Hall, Ballard: or Judson Butler, Ballard, both have near-identical yardage totals (534 vs. 538) and are powering the Eagles to an undefeated start.
QB - Patrick Moore, Loachapoka: to be fair, he was the first one off the list in the preseason, had a bad night against Reeltown but still has accounted for about 1,000 yards and 17 scores this season.
Defense
DL - Caleb Lawrence, Opelika: has battled a preseason injury and still looks less than full speed, has 16 tackles with one for a loss.
DL - Patrick Lockhart, Beauregard: opposing offenses have put the clamps on him, which has allowed others to make plays, has 29 tackles and a sack.
DL - Rodney Thomas, Auburn: part of a punishing defensive front for the Tigers, has 14 tackles with seven for a loss.
DL - Marvin Hunter, Loachapoka: part of a punishing defensive front for the Indians, has their only sack on the year.
LB - Charlie Groover, Springwood: good call, blog (high five), leads the Wildcats with 68 tackles and six sacks.
LB - Jordan Wimberly, Beulah: is a force on offense and had a key interception in the Bobcats’ win last week, their first in 16 tries.
LB - T.C. Robinson, Tallassee: another good call, leads the Tigers - and the area - with 63 tackles.
LB - Tariz Walker, Dadeville: the blog must have a knack for linebackers or something, he leads the Tigers with 40 tackles and has a sack.
DB - Pee Wee Cobb, Auburn: leads an opportunistic defense with three interceptions.
DB - Enrique Florence, Valley: don’t hear much from the Valley, but from what I do hear, this guy’s still a playmaker.
DB - Antoine Heard, LaFayette: ditto for LaFayette and Heard.
DB - Von Gibson, Beauregard: has 41 tackles, two interceptions and three fumble recoveries this season.
ATH - Willie McKenzie, Reeltown: put him here because there wasn’t a slot on offense, but he does have an interception to go along with his 338 rushing yards.
ATH - Travis Moore, BTW: haven’t heard much from ‘Skegee in the past couple of weeks, but he had 16 tackles and two sacks through two weeks.
P - Hunter Mullins, Tallassee: averaging 40.1 yards per punt with a long of 56, average would be higher, but he had one off game.
Ones We Missed: LB - T.J. Turkington, Ballard: leads the Eagles with 62 tackles and five sacks.
DB - Nelson Robinson, Reeltown: Part of an increasingly stingier Reeltown defense (see also: LB - Shaquille Roberson), has three interceptions.
P - Michael Jensen, Lee-Scott: struggling with his field goal accuracy a little, but is averaging more than 40 yards per punt.
DL - Garrett Nixon and Candreyas Williams, Beauregard: and, to be fair, Williams was the first one left off on defense, share the team lead with three sacks (throw LB - Nathan Edwards in there, too, he leads the team with 46 tackles).
There you have it. A little better on offense than defense. Maybe a B-plus overall? And that averages about a C.
And mediocrity is about all you can ask from us, right?
Right?

Which, full disclosure, includes me as a dues-paying member.
Shocking, I know.
Opelika’s Winfred Caldwell is the second area player in three weeks to be a “defense/special teams” finalist, after Beauregard’s Von Gibson was a couple of weeks ago.
Tallassee’s Mike Smith is the first offensive finalist from the area, and Dadeville’s Kyle Caldwell made “best of the rest” for the second time this season, this one on the offensive side after making the defense/special teams list three weeks ago.
When Opelika linebacker Winfred Caldwell intercepted Marlon Moore’s pass in the fourth quarter of last Friday’s game against Vigor — after hurdling Moore, of course — he told himself not to stop running until he reached the end zone.
He didn’t. And the junior’s 82-yard interception return for a score served as the, in his words, “nail in the coffin” in Opelika’s 26-6 win over
Vigor, the No. 1 team in Class 5A and a team that had won 19 straight.
It also cemented his place as one of the three finalists for the Alabama Sports Writers Association’s defensive/special teams award, released today.
In addition to his interception return, Caldwell had a pass deflection on a fourth down deep inside the Bulldogs’ territory to stop a Vigor drive earlier in the fourth quarter and notched six tackles on the night.
Abbeville Christian’s Taylor West won the award, after blocking a potential game-winning field goal in the final minute against Lyman Ward and returning it 97 yards for the winning touchdown in a 22-14 win.
Even though his team lost, 43-36, to Chilton County on Friday, Tallassee’s Mike Smith’s breakout performance was still enough to make him one of the finalists for the offensive award.
The Tigers senior running back amassed 305 all-purpose yards in the loss, including 159 rushing yards and three scores, a 71-yard touchdown reception, a 75-yard punt return for a touchdown and a 2-point conversion.
Fairhope’s Jamal Woodyard won the offensive honors, going for 465 all-purpose yards — 314 rushing, 121 receiving and 30 on kickoff returns — in the Pirates’ 41-21 win over 4A No. 3 UMS-Wright.
Kyle Caldwell’s near-perfect effort in Dadeville’s 35-19 win over Randolph County earned him a “Best of the Rest” nod on offense. The junior quarterback completed 10-of-12 passes for 298 yards and a score, also kicking all five extra points for the Tigers.
Central’s Dante Devouse and Beulah’s David Strickland also earned “Best of the Rest” mentions on the defense/special teams list.
Devouse blocked a 42-yard field goal in the final seconds of the Red Devils’ 32-29 win over Stanhope Elmore, preventing the game from going into overtime and preserving Central’s 5-0 start.
Strickland knocked in a 24-yard field goal with 2:19 to go, pushing the Bobcats’ lead to the final margin of 24-13 and all but clinching the Bobcats’ first win in 16 tries.

****On Chris Todd: “We felt like with what we saw and knowing and understanding that he didn’t go through spring practice, we felt like Chris could be a good player in this offense. He’s got a lot of room for improvement but I think he’s done some things that we expected him to do.“

There’s going to be a lot more Trooper Taylor-back-to-Tennessee talk this week, but let’s get the ball rolling, shall we?
Dave Hooker of the Knoxville News-Sentinel talked to Taylor yesterday. One quote really stood out to us, so much so that we put it in the headline.
Here’s the passage.
No longer is the former UT assistant so determined to climb the career ladder in record pace. Now coaching receivers at Auburn (4-0, 1-0), Taylor sees the importance of finding a more permanent home after coaching for three schools in three seasons: UT in 2007, Oklahoma State in 2008 and Auburn this season.
“They’ve changed a little bit,” Taylor said of his priorities. “Now I’m at the point to where I want to make sure I’m not moving my kids around in high school so I want to be established at a place for the next four or five years where they can set their roots.”
Taylor’s wife, Evi, and their children — son, Blaise, and daughter, Starr — have followed their father to six schools during his 18-year career. The moves have been made by choice.
Taylor has continually proved himself as a position coach and a recruiter. But when a promotion or title was offered, he was often lured elsewhere.
Taylor’s oldest child, Blaise, will begin high school next year. Does that mean Taylor is ready to set up permanent roots?
“They understand how football is,” Taylor said of his family. “Something could happen that they’d have to move, but it would have to be a pretty good job for me to change in the middle of their high school careers.
So what does that mean about his future at Auburn? We’ll have to wait and see.
