After two games on the road, Gunn is heading back home. They will welcome the El Camino Colts at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. The two teams are sauntering into the matchup backed by comfortable wins in their prior games.
El Camino's offense is going to have their work cut out for them on Thursday: Gunn hadn't allowed a single point the last three times they've hit the field.

Fans of the Titans have seen this all before: every one of the games they've played this season has ended in a blowout of 20+ points.
Yonatan Smolyar had an outrageously good game as he rushed for 97 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries.

Jeremiah G Davis made the highlight reel by snagging an interception and taking it all the way to the house.

G Davis picked up that interception and then proceeded to rub salt in the wound by taking it back the other way for a touchdown. Another thorn in Cupertino's side was Luke Hines, who made 12 total tackles (3.0 for loss).
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Gunn was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 236 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now rushed for at least 227 rushing yards in five consecutive games.
