Based on what remains on the Alabama football schedule, offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb will face a bigger challenge than DC Kane Wommack.

Several high school football teams are looking to finish their seasons strong, as most schools wrap up regular-season play Thursday and Friday. In the AHSAA Game of the Week, Parker (6-3) looks to bounce back against Woodlawn (2-6).

Alabama football looked plenty beatable in a 29-22 comeback win over South Carolina, but it also showed why the SEC should be concerned.

For Wommack’s defense, it has manifested in slow starts. Alabama has given up touchdowns on the first drive of the game for the past two weeks, and allowed explosive run plays largely by being out of position.

It's Week 9 of Alabama high school football in the Gadsden-area. Follow along for live updates and AHSAA scores from Friday night.
