TISCIA'S PICK: Gilbert/Northwestern 27, Stafford/East Windsor 18

Short and sweet: If the Yellowjackets lose, they are out of playoff contention. If they continue to run the ball like they have in recent weeks, led by Devon Molway, the Yellowjackets should get past a Stafford team they shut out last season.
