Jeff’s Take on the Contest:
This should be a great game and all out war between these two. It’s going to be tooth and nail the entire way. It will be a nail biter and a barn burner there’s no doubt about that. Both teams are very good, physical, and fundamentally sound Football Teams, and this should be a great game. It’s a District game too so this is a big one for Oakland-Craig. It would be huge for the Knights to win it and start District play off on the right foot and also get a leg up in District play too given what remains yet this season.
