Vestavia Hills (5-2) at Tuscaloosa County (0-7)
- Class 7A, Region 3
- Date: Friday, Oct. 17
- Time: 7 p.m.
- Location: Tuscaloosa County High School
Last week: Vestavia Hills shut out Oak Mountain 41-0; Tuscaloosa County fell to Hoover 51-7.
What to watch: Vestavia Hills has been on a roll the last two weeks, running away from Prattville and dominating Oak Mountain. The Rebels should be able to notch another win in this one, as the Wildcats are still winless on the season. Vestavia’s goal in this one is to take care of business and remain healthy heading into the big matchup with Hoover next week.
Last meeting: Vestavia Hills shut out Tuscaloosa County 42-0 on Oct. 18, 2024. Vestavia holds a 15-6 edge in the series, winning the last 10.
Next week: Vestavia Hills hosts Hoover next Friday in the region finale, while Tuscaloosa County takes a trip to Hewitt-Trussville.
