A look at two of this week\u2019s top high school football games in the Southland:<\/p>\n
THURSDAY<\/b><\/p>\n
Carson (6-3, 3-0) at San Pedro (5-4, 3-0), 7:30 p.m.<\/b> The atmosphere should be loud and intense for this Marine League title decider. Carson might be the No. 1 seed in the City Section Open Division playoffs with a win. It\u2019s a great tuneup for quarterback Chris Fields and a great test for the Colts\u2019 offensive line. San Pedro needs strong line play to deal with sophomore defensive star Kingston Sula. The pick: Carson.<\/p>\n
FRIDAY<\/b><\/p>\n
Mater Dei (6-2, 3-1) at St. John Bosco (9-0, 4-0), 7 p.m. <\/b>For the last 10 years, these two programs have dominated the Trinity League. Don\u2019t underestimate a Mater Dei team with a rare two losses coming in. Both games could have been turned into victories except for some bad luck. To win, Mater Dei needs to improve its ground game to set up its pass. St. John Bosco\u2019s offense has been scoring lots of points. Look for the play in the secondary from both teams going against elite receivers to decide this one. The pick: St. John Bosco.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A look at two of this week\u2019s top high school football games in the Southland: THURSDAY Carson (6-3,…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":340708,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5123],"tags":[1582,276,48219,167832,167835,167836,2961,224,5337,471,18266,17820,6535,167833,94965,40346,92006,167834,167831,2452],"class_list":{"0":"post-340707","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-california","10":"tag-colts","11":"tag-friday-mater-dei","12":"tag-great-test","13":"tag-great-tuneup","14":"tag-la","15":"tag-los-angeles","16":"tag-losangeles","17":"tag-no","18":"tag-offensive-line","19":"tag-p-m","20":"tag-pick","21":"tag-quarterback-chris-fields","22":"tag-san-pedro","23":"tag-seed","24":"tag-st-john-bosco","25":"tag-strong-line-play","26":"tag-thursday-carson","27":"tag-week"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115457364221673307","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340707","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=340707"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340707\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/340708"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=340707"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=340707"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=340707"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
