RAIDERS WIN IF …

They can solve Mounds View's defense. The Mustangs have allowed just 27 points—second only to Cretin-Derham Hall in the Suburban East—and have allowed just one second-half touchdown. If the Mustangs get ahead, it can be a long night.

MUSTANGS WIN IF …

They can figure out how to score in the second half. Mounds View has put up 39 points in three games, including just one touchdown after intermission. The Mustangs have won both games in which they've led at halftime, but it's time for the offense to step up and take some of the load off the defense.
