Football Friday - Washburn

The Millers look to knock off the Tigers of Minneapolis South.

This is the second conference game for both teams. Starting out 2-0 is at stake, so expect both teams to be on top of everything.

Andrew Leighton – TE – Millers

Leighton is a big target and cause match up problems for the Tigers. Look for him to not only help in the running game, but also to be a main target through the air.

 

Charlie Metcalf – CB – Tigers

Metcalf will have his hands full, but that’s just the way he likes it. Look for him to cause the offense of the Millers problems.

 

Millers Win If...

They do what they did last week; put up a bunch of points. They put up 40 points last week and they might need to put up even more this week.

 

Tigers Win If...

Feed off the energy of their home crowd. It will be a chilly night, so the Tigers will need to stay active on defense to stay loose and effective.
