St. Michael-Albertville at Rogers
7 p.m., Friday, Sept. 16

St. Michael-Albertville, ranked No. 1 in Class 5A in the Associated Press state high school football poll, and No. 6-5A Rogers have turned in similar results in this season's first two weeks.

The Knights (2-0) nabbed a 16-6 win over Moorhead in Week 1 before exploding to a 42-10 win over Big Lake. The Royals (2-0) snuck by Sartell-St. Stephen 17-14 before blowing out Princeton 56-7.

Defense has been each team's calling card, with both allowing two touchdowns or less per game through two weeks. 

One player Rogers will need to keep an eye on is St. Michael-Albertville junior running back Mitchell Kartes, who leads the team with 183 rushing yards and has five TDs.
