Nevada Preps football predictions: How will Gorman fare in Florida showdown? Bishop Gorman’s recent 38‑28 victory over St. John Bosco of California, a team ranked No. 1 in the MaxPreps federation, has sparked the usual post‑win curiosity about a possible letdown in the next outing. The Gaels are now set to travel across the country to Fort Lauderdale, where they will meet Columbus at 11 a.m. PT on Saturday as part of the Broward County High School National Football Showcase. ESPN2 will carry the game nationally, and forecasters predict hot, humid conditions with a chance of thunderstorms. Those environmental elements could turn the contest into a demanding challenge for any squad, potentially making it the toughest test Bishop Gorman faces this season. Local high‑school reporters Alex Wright and Jeff Wollard have released their weekly picks for Southern Nevada prep football action. **Bishop Gorman at Columbus (Florida)** - Wright: Bishop Gorman - Wollard: Bishop Gorman **Tafuna (American Samoa) at Liberty** - Wright: Liberty - Wollard: Liberty **Desert Oasis at Palo Verde** - Wright: Desert Oasis - Wollard: Desert Oasis **Canyon Springs at Coronado** - Wright: Coronado - Wollard: Coronado **Burbank (California) at Centennial** - Wright: Centennial - Wollard: Centennial **Foothill at Spanish Springs** - Wright: Foothill - Wollard: Spanish Springs **Faith Lutheran at Valor Christian (Colorado)** - Wright: Valor Christian - Wollard: Valor Christian **Victor Valley (California) at Mater East** - Wright: Mater East - Wollard: Mater East **Las Vegas High at Mountain View (Arizona)** - Wright: Mountain View - Wollard: Mountain View **John Muir (California) at Sloan Canyon** - Wright: Sloan Canyon - Wollard: Sloan Canyon **Desert Pines at Cheyenne** - Wright: Desert Pines - Wollard: Desert Pines **Shadow Ridge at Simi Valley (California)** - Wright: Simi Valley - Wollard: Simi Valley **Reed at Legacy** - Wright: Legacy - Wollard: Reed **Sierra Vista at Basic** - Wright: Sierra Vista - Wollard: Sierra Vista **Spring Valley at Bonanza** - Wright: Spring Valley - Wollard: Spring Valley **Cimarron‑Memorial at Silverado** - Wright: Silverado - Wollard: Silverado **Pahrump Valley at Durango** - Wright: Durango - Wollard: Durango **Valley at Rancho** - Wright: Valley - Wollard: Valley **Valley View (California) at SLAM!
