Analysis: After a rocky beginning to the season, Plant is peaking at the right time as Robert Weiner's teams tend to do. The Panthers have won five-straight games and have the senior leadership to make a deep playoff run. Coming off a blowout loss to Jefferson and without starting quarterback Bennie Coney, who was recently dismissed from the team, Plant City is a major underdog. However,
Javonte Sykes and
Dazmond Patterson give the offense some explosive weapons. With Florida State-bound
Jordan Prestwood upfront, the Raiders have a chance to control the line of scrimmage and make this one interesting.
