Here are 10 games this season that will be worth the price of admission:

SEPT. 1

Gateway vs. Cardinal Mooney (Ohio) -- This game will be played at Fawcett Stadium in Canton, a two-hour drive from Pittsburgh. But it would be worth the trip. Gateway is the preseason No. 1 Class AAAA team in the state and Cardinal Mooney is the three-time defending state champion in Division IV. Two Cardinal Mooney seniors have already committed to Penn State, one to Oklahoma and another to Notre Dame.

SEPT. 7

West Allegheny at Thomas Jefferson -- The second week of the season brings a test for Thomas Jefferson, the No. 1 WPIAL Class AAA team. It's a good chance to see highly-touted lineman Lucas Nix, a Pitt recruit.

SEPT. 14

Franklin Regional at Pine-Richland -- Franklin Regional is 24-3 the past two seasons and Pine-Richland 20-3. Need we say any more?

SEPT. 21

Central Catholic at Woodland Hills -- Any game in Woodland Hills' Wolverena is a good thing. Plus, these two have played some classic games over the years. OCT. 4

Brashear vs. Oliver -- A Thursday night game on the South Side is a rematch of last year's City League championship.

OCT. 11

Trinity at Thomas Jefferson -- This is one of FSN Pittsburgh's Thursday night games. How will Trinity's dynamic duo of linebackers Andrew Sweat (Ohio State recruit) and Mike Yancich (Penn State) do against the premiere team in WPIAL Class AAA?

OCT. 12

Penn Hills at Gateway -- Penn Hills was a WPIAL Class AAAA finalist last year. Will a tough schedule start taking its toll on Gateway by this time of the season?

OCT. 19

Upper St. Clair at McKeesport -- Upper St. Clair isn't as strong as last year's PIAA championship team. But the Panthers are still good enough to win the Great Southern Conference and this showdown might decide the title.

OCT. 25

Jeannette at Greensburg Central Catholic -- Want to see all-everything Jeannette QB Terrelle Pryor? This Thursday night FSN game will be his toughest test of the regular season.
