CAL travels to Central this Friday for a Class 3A district 3 showdown.  For the last few years, the winner of this contest has been the winner of the district.  

Central comes into the game at 2-4 with wins over Butler & Shawnee.  Although their 4 losses have been to fairly strong teams, none of those games have been extremely competitive.  Central is led on offense by JR QB Philip Baker who has passed for 652 yards & 4 TDs this season.  As a unit, Central averages just under 200 yards of offense per game.  On defense, which is typically there strong point of most Central teams, they are led by SR LB Brian Marshall who averages just under 11 tackles per game.

For the visiting 7-0 Centurions, they are led by dynamic, play making JR WR JaHyde Brown who has 946 yards & 14 TDS on the season.  SO QB Jackson Burke took over the primary signal caller duties a few weeks back & has not disappointed.  He has thrown for 1389 yards & 20 TDS on the season with 0 INTs.  The CAL offense averages exactly 400 yards per game.  Defensively, CAL is led by JR LB Micah Newsome at 11 tackles per game.

Can Central turn back the calendar & knock off CAL at home as they did last October?  Or does CAL keep the train rolling towards a December date at Kroger Field?

No disrespect to Central but CAL is on another level. It will be a running clock in the second half.

 

Running clock. Central is showing improvement but they won't have enough gas in the tank this year to slow down the CAL offensive juggernaut for four quarters.

CAL 49-6.

How big of an upset would it be if Central somehow pulled off the win?
