Week 10 brings several high-stakes Alabama high school football matchups. Mountain Brook visits Pelham as both chase playoff spots, while Briarwood and American Christian Academy meet with the Private Class AA, Region 2 title on the line. In Class 6A, Region 3, unbeaten-in-region Prattville hosts Vestavia Hills, with the result potentially reshaping the race at the top.

By the Numbers
  • Prattville is 6-0 in Class 6A, Region 3; Vestavia Hills is 5-1.
  • Mountain Brook leads Pelham 13-3 in their all-time series.
  • Homewood clinched the Class 5A, Region 4 title for the second straight year.
  • John Carroll and Randolph are both 3-3 in Private Class AA, Region 2; the winner earns the No. 4 seed.
Yes, But

Not every game carries playoff stakes: Oak Mountain is already out of contention in its region, while Chelsea and Chilton County are both seeking their first wins. But several teams still have a chance to improve their playoff position, and the Vestavia Hills-Prattville result could create a three-way tie atop Class 6A, Region 3.

What's Next

Most games kick off Friday, Oct. 23, at 7 p.m.; Mountain Brook-Pelham is scheduled for Thursday, Oct. 22, at 7 p.m. The results will help settle regional titles and playoff seeds before the final week of the regular season.

Bottom Line

Week 10 is a pivotal checkpoint: some teams are playing for region crowns, others for playoff positioning, and a few for a much-needed win.
