*After going 4-36 the last four years, the Vikings improved to 2-1 under new head coach Steve Chanel with a 13-10 win over previously unbeaten Franklin. It was the teams first meeting since 2004. The Burg’s defense forced three turnovers and scored on  one (a 10-yard INT return by Tyler Ikerd). Chanel spent 21 seasons at Trenton Edgewood and led the Cougars to 10 playoff appearances and the 2003 D-II state final. Last year he was Middletown’s QB coach. The Vikings haven’t had a winning season since 2003.

Week 3 Runner-Up: Bradford (262 votes)
*The Railroaders – led by former Ohio Mr. Football, Penn State star and NFL first round draft pick Curtis Enis – are 3-0 for the first time since 1983 following a 61-41 win over National Trail. Bradford went 3-27 from 2007-2009 and hasn’t had a winning season since 1997. Since Enis took over in 2010, Bradford is 13-10. In the eight years prior they were 17-53.
