5A-II McQueen at Spanish Springs: McQueen enters this game against Spanish Springs without a league win. The Lancers played competitive halves against Bishop Manogue and Douglas before faltering late. It'll take a strong four-quarter effort to beat the Cougars, who enter with back-to-back wins over Douglas and Reno, relying heavily on the junior trio of quarterback Tyson McNeil, receiver Brady Hummel and rusher Jaxon Harris. McNeil ranks fifth in the state in passing yards (1,633). On defense, fellow junior Kyler Depaepe averages more than 16 tackles per game. McQueen's senior quarterback, Cooper Craft, has proven to be a consistent offensive weapon. He must be sharp if the Lancers are going to score the upset. He threw three touchdowns against Manogue. McQueen and Reno are the last two teams without a win in league play, so this game is crucial as the Lancers try to avoid a potential drop to the 5A-III. Prediction: Spanish Springs 31, McQueen 21.
