No. 2 Los Alamitos (4-0) vs. Kennedy (4-0)

7 TONIGHT WESTERN HIGH
The statistical similarities between the teams are striking. Each averages more than 30 points per game. Each features a running back who averages more than 6.5 yards per carry. But there’s one major difference: strength of schedule. Los Alamitos has defeated the likes of Santa Margarita, while Kennedy has beaten four teams with five wins between them. Still, the Irish gave the Griffins a difficult time last year before losing, 13-7. If Kennedy quarterback Geoff Etherson can avoid the Los Alamitos rush, which sacked him nine times last year, Irish eyes might be smiling.
