The top-ranked Polar Bears can set a new record for a winning streak in the series as Fairmont Senior enters with 10 straight wins over the Bees.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Fairmont Senior is gearing up for the playoffs and has already clinched the top seed. The Polar Bears are coming off a bye and no opponent has come within three touchdowns of beating them in any regular season game. Quarterback Connor Neal is the leader of a potent offense with no shortage of quick strike ability.<\/p>\n<p>FSHS leads the all time series 62-28-7. \u00a0The Polar Bears won last year&#8217;s game 35-14. East Fairmont&#8217;s last win in the series came in 2007 \u2014 27-21 in overtime.<\/p>\n<p><b>No. 2 Bridgeport (8-1) at Lincoln (4-5): <\/b>Bridgeport got a week off following an impressive win against a playoff-bound Keyser team back on October 19.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The Indians\u2019 defense shined in that one as the unit forced a pair of key turnovers in scoring situations for Keyser. Bridgeport also stopped a two-point conversion attempt and also tipped a point-after try.<\/p>\n<p>Bridgeport is 3-1 against potential playoff teams with victories over Keyser, Robert C. Byrd and Lewis County. The lone loss was at the hands of top-ranked Fairmont Senior back in mid-September.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Tailback Jake Bowen needs 74 yards on the ground to become Bridgeport\u2019s all-time rushing leader.<\/p>\n<p>Bridgeport can clinch a top four seed with a victory. The Indians would finish anywhere between the second and fourth seed with a win.<\/p>\n<p><b>Philip Barbour (2-7) at No. 6 Robert C. Byrd (7-2):<\/b> The Eagles can secure a first-round home playoff game with a fifth straight victory.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>RCB has been riding 6-foot-2, 205-pound running back Ghovan Davidson during its recent string of success.\u00a0Davidson had 264 yards on 39 carries last week during a win at North Marion. He has 1,657 yards on the season.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The Colts defeated RCB in Philippi last season, 21-20 after overcoming a 12-point deficit. Philip Barbour has taken a step back this season, but is looking to play the role of spoiler here.<\/p>\n<p><b>Grafton (5-3) at North Marion (4-5): <\/b>The Bearcats begin the week just out of the playoffs at No. 17.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Grafton still has a chance to reach the postseason with a win, but they need some help. Grafton can get into the playoffs with a victory over the Huskies if Frankfort, Petersburg or Oak Hill loses.<\/p>\n<p><b>Clay-Battelle (5-4) at Madonna (3-6): <\/b>The Cee-Bees were beaten by Notre Dame last week but they still harbor playoff hopes as they head into the regular season finale.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Clay-Battelle needs a win over Madonna and losses by Fayetteville, Tyler Consolidated, Pocahontas County and Tygarts Valley.<\/p>\n<p><b>Other games: <\/b>Tucker County (6-3) at Notre Dame (4-5); Liberty (5-4) at South Harrison (1-8); Elkins (4-5) at Buckhannon-Upshur (4-5)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fairmont Senior, Bridgeport and Robert C.
