SD Week 2 Games to Watch

Our Game   Deuel (2-0) vs. Sisseton (1-1)   Third game of the season for us two teams. This game is a pivotal game in the conference standings as well as some pull in the Class rankings as well. Sisseton primarily seems like a spread team that likes to run. Deuel has had multiple looks on the offensive of the ball. Meanwhile, Deuel is pretty consistent on the defensive front. Sisseton has multiple looks on their defensive side.

Potter County putting up a lot of points in Week 0, followed by a close battle in Week 1. Faulkton emerged victorious in Week 0 in a tight game, followed by a big blowout victory against a Class power. Both teams share similar styles of offense by spreading teams out but still running the ball well. They also seem to set up the same defensively as well.

A 9A and 9AA clash of two similar teams. Both like to keep it between the tackles and grind their way down the field. Don't sleep on them though, they both can hit the big play at any moment. Parkston really prides themselves on the defensive side. Wolsey-Wessington likes to take their chances down the field. This game could be a good slugfest.

The returning champion Huskies will take on an always impressive Cossack team. EPJ is a run heavy offense that can throw. While Sioux Valley is a spread/multiple look offense that will look for big plays anywhere. Both teams are very athletic across the board and that shapes this game up as on of the best this week.

They also both lost in one-score fashion last week and are looking to rebound this week. Two very athletic teams on both sides of the ball. Very different types of offensive schemes. BV will control the ball and the clock with their run game. Harrisburg will attack through the air and look for those big plays.
