St. Michael-Albertville at St. Francis
7 p.m., Friday, Sept. 5


Both of these teams posted shutouts in Week 1. Now, after pounding on their opponents in the opener, the Knights and the Fighting Saints square off in a matchup of the preseason's top teams in the Mississippi 8 Conference.

St. Francis will need to slow St. Michael-Albertville quarterback Jackson Greenwaldt, who threw for 156 yards and three touchdowns and rushed for 45 yards and a touchdown in the Knights' win against Buffalo. The Fighting Saints had five players score the team's seven rushing touchdowns against Duluth East last week.

St. Michael-Albertville defeated St. Francis 28-12 in 2013.
