A rivalry matchup for week one between the Indians and the Lakers and it should be a good one. These teams did not get to play last season due to COVID so they will both be chomping at the bit. Adair went 2-4 last season, while Russell went 6-0 in the regular season and was upset in the first round of district. Both teams return their starting senior QB's Luke Janes for Adair and Gavin Gossage for Russell Co and should expect good seasons from both. Russell lost far more than Adair including their 2 leading rushers, top receiver, and most of their line play. Adair brought 5 seniors back using the Supplemental rule and will have plenty of offensive weapons, but a young and inexperienced O-line. 

Looks to be a fairly even matchup. This is a good measuring stick for Adair County, who seemed to be improved last season after a couple really tough years.
