Moorhead at Brainerd
7 p.m., Friday, Oct. 10

Moorhead has experienced close-scoring games and routs through six games. The Spuds recorded an 18-13 victory over Alexandria in the season opener but have posted blowout victories in each of the last five weeks. Moorhead (6-0, 3-0), ranked No. 6-5A, averaged 45 points per game during the span, which included a 40-0 shutout of Fergus Falls last week.

On the other side, Brainerd (4-2, 2-1) hopes to rebound from a sloppy, snow-filled game against Bemidji last week. The Warriors gave up 398 rushing yards to the Lumberjacks in the 41-14 loss.

Brainerd remains in the hunt for the Central Lakes North Conference title, sitting one game behind Bemidji and Moorhead in the league standings.

Brainerd defeated Moorhead 26-23 in overtime last year.
