One team will leave Big Cat Stadium in Morris tonight with their first loss of the season.
Granted, at 2-0 apiece, it's not that high of stakes...or maybe it is.
The 10-team West Central Conference brings an imbalanced schedule in football, meaning that one team just might run the table throughout and win the title outright. My bet is that team will be either Sauk Centre, BOLD or tonight's opponents for the Mainstreeters: Morris Area/Chokio-Alberta.
The MA/CA Tigers have 18 seniors on the roster, and they badly want to win a conference title and get to the Class 2A state tournament. They have three bruising running backs lining up behind senior quarterback Jake Torgerson. (He happens to be the son of long-time and highly-successful boys' basketball coach Mark Torgerson of Morris.)
On the other side of the line of scrimmage will be our very own Sauk Centre Mainstreeters, who are looking to erase memories of many seasons of sub-.500 football and post not only a winning record but also drive deep into the playoffs as they did in 2011.
Tip off is at 7 p.m. on the campus of the University of Minnesota-Morris. Highlights of the game will be posted late tonight with a follow-up tomorrow morning.
