Cozad vs. Gothenburg
The Swedes are getting prepped for a big run here at the end of the season. Cozad will look to grind out the clock with a consistent rushing attack, against the speed of Gothenburg. As it has been said before, "speed kills," and in this case there is a chance that the lights on the scoreboard could get blown out completely. Gothenburg rolls big, in a game that they could practically choose the score.
Gothenburg 44 Cozad 8
Lexington vs. Ogallala
It is very tough to earn victories on the road, let along winning in Ogallala. Lexington will try to regroup after the storm that blew in via a wintery front and the McCook Bison from last week. It will be a closer game than expected, but I see the Indians escaping with a win in this very important district contest.
Ogallala 17 Lexington 13
Eustis/Farnam vs. Maxwell
This contest matches the top two teams in the district. Maxwell has been rolling since a few early season defeats. Eustis/Farnam has been building confidence and strength throughout the season. The Knights have a punishing run game that has emerged in the past weeks, that should push them over the edge in one of the best matchups in the state for this week. The athletes of Eustis/Farnam will not stop Cody Calhoun, but will keep him in check enough to escape the Maxwell madhouse with a win.
Eustis/Farnam 40 Maxwell 36
Elwood vs. Medicine Valley
If you want to watch an exciting, offense-filled game? This should be a game to check out; the passing game of the Raiders and Pirates are strengths offensively. Both quarterbacks, will spread the field and use numerous receivers to move the ball up and down the field, that could turn into a potential track meet. I do think that one of the teams is going to need to encounter some success on the ground to become the victor in this matchup. My gut feeling is that the Raiders of Medicine Valley will fall victim to the Pirates, due to great team continuity and ability to run the ball along with their aerial assault.
Elwood 40 Medicine Valley 32
Nebraska Kearney vs. Western New Mexico
Every game that Western New Mexico has played in has turned into an 'Old-School' RMAC offensive shootout. If your offense is struggling, seeing Western New Mexico on the schedule should solve any offensive issues. Not so fast though, as UNK is on a roll on offense, defense and special teams. The Loper attack is running on all cylinders, and on homecoming, most individuals that suit up will play in this blowout win.
UNK 62 Western New Mexico 7
Nebraska vs. Texas Tech
In a battle of the North versus the South, it will remind people of the blue versus the grey. Both teams have had their share of yellow being thrown. It seems that there are a lot of colors in this matchup, but it will be the men in Black, from Nebraska that will be the game clinchers. The Cornhuskers are victorious, in the offensive showcase.
Nebraska 35 Texas Tech 20
