The 7 Friday Night Team Returns For Another Week Of NorCal Football Picks, Some Feeling Better Than Others •
We’re back for another week of NorCal football picks. 7 Friday Night host Chace Bryson is looking to build off of a strong week, while co-host Ben Enos and Coach Terry Eidson try not to let bitterness consume them.
With plenty of good matchups to choose from, Chace and Ben make their usual three primary picks and follow up by giving one another two challenge picks. Coach Eidson makes his three picks and tries not to get too snarky when Chace mentions going 4-1 the previous week.
