The second season of the West Virginia high school football playoffs begins Friday night across the Mountain State.

There are 48 teams still standing and by late Saturday evening the field will be trimmed in half.

Class AAA has an array of area teams, including No. 1 Cabell Midland.

Check out thoughts from Midland head coach Luke Salmons, plus comments from Huntington's Billy Seals and Point Pleasant's Dave Darst.

In addition, the Mountaineers and Marshall hit the road this weekend.
