It’s week four of the high school football season in Nebraska and we’ve got two games tonight on the RRN-Scottsbluff with both Scottsbluff and Gering looking to start the year 4-0.

There is no “Area Game of the Week” on 94.1 The Brand tonight due to the Husker football game.

Seward (3-0) at Scottsbluff (3-0), 107.3 The Trail & KHYYfm.com with pregame at 6:30, kickoff 7 pm

This is one of the top games across the state tonight with a pair of Class B unbeatens squaring off at Bearcat Stadium. After back to back running clock wins the Bearcats are in need of a big game and Seward figures to provide just that.

The Blue Jays are averaging 37 points per game in wins over Gretna East, Waverly, and Lincoln Pius.
