Playoff football is coming to the Wiregrass. Enterprise hosts Robertsdale on Tuesday, Nov. 3 at 4 p.m. in a Class 6A first round game, and the matchup pairs two programs arriving from very different directions.

Robertsdale makes the long trip north from Baldwin County with six wins in 16 games, but the record hides the milestone. The Golden Bears are playing in the postseason for the first time in program history, a berth the school announced with a team photo and a simple message: playoff bound. Enterprise, meanwhile, split its 16 games right down the middle, eight wins and eight losses, while playing one of the toughest schedules in the state. The Wildcats’ schedule strength rating of 8.0 on MaxPreps was the best mark in their sub region, which means that record came against top competition.

The winner gets no break. Round two sends the survivor to face one of the rested teams that earned a first round bye in the 6A bracket.

Enterprise has a proven playmaker for a game like this. In a September spotlight, the AHSAA highlighted senior quarterback Jamilla Ballew, who accounted for five touchdowns in a 44-0 win over Charles Henderson early in the season, throwing for 145 yards and four scores and adding a 50 yard touchdown run.

The Wiregrass has one more home game on the bracket. Carroll of Ozark, which won eight of its 12 games and sits No. 2 in the Dothan area rankings, hosts Wilcox-Central in the Class 1A through 4A first round. Dothan did not qualify, closing with two wins and eight losses.

Every bracket has a draw nobody wants, and in Class 6A it belongs to James Clemens. The Jets travel to Hewitt-Trussville on Tuesday, Nov. 3 at 6 p.m. for a first round playoff game, a road trip confirmed on Hewitt-Trussville’s official athletics schedule.

James Clemens, from Madison, won six of its 14 games and closed the regular season the right way, with a 6-0 shutout win at Columbia on Oct. 27. The Jets’ wins include a 36-6 rout of Bob Jones, a 35-0 shutout of St. John Paul II, a 31-13 win over Mae Jemison on Oct. 20 and an 18-0 shutout of Hazel Green. The losses show the gap the Jets have to close. Gadsden City beat them 36-6 on Oct. 22, and Sparkman edged them 13-6 on Oct. 13.

Hewitt-Trussville is the standard on the other sideline. The Huskies are one of the powers of the 6A bracket, and the program’s flag account still points to the inaugural state title it won in 2021, before flag became an official AHSAA championship sport.

Three of the Jets’ six wins were shutouts, so the defense has traveled before. The game is also one of eight first round matchups in the Class 6A bracket, while eight other teams, including Spain Park and Smiths Station, sit out the week on byes and wait for the winners.

For James Clemens, the math is simple. The Jets have already shown they can pitch a shutout and score in bunches against their own level. Tuesday asks them to do it in the hardest building in the bracket.
