Prep football picks: survive and advance

Three Morgan County teams survived round one of the AHSAA playoffs and advanced to round two. Hartselle overcame two deficits to get past Center Point. Priceville went on the road and upset a number one seed, while West Morgan continued their domination of opponents. Games will get more challenging this week as all three teams are on the road.

The Tigers head to Gadsden City for a rematch with the Titans, who defeated Mortimer Jordan last week. Hartselle won the first matchup 31-28 earlier this season. Priceville heads to Brooks in a matchup of teams who pulled off upsets last week, while West Morgan heads to Corner, who won at Randolph.
