DECATUR DAILY 
The skinny: 
Colbert County is a contender for the region title. Kobi McCoy leads a Colbert County running game that has multiple playmakers. … Elkmont is one of the Tennessee Valley’s youngest teams. The Red Devils rely heavily on underclassmen with no varsity experience. On the field, that youth has shown. Elkmont has scored only two touchdowns in three games while giving up almost 40 points per game. … Colbert County leads the series 16-5-2.
The Daily pick: Colbert County 55, Elkmont 14
