Whittell and Virginia City are set to face off this Saturday at 1:00 PM. Whittell has been tearing up the end zone with big points in its last seven contests.
The state rankings suggested a blowout in Whittell's previous game, and that is exactly what happened. It crushed Mineral County last week, winning 104 - 58. Senior Corey Huber didn't have many carries in the previous game, but he had more touches this time and made them count as he ran for 233 yards and punched in four touchdowns. This sound performance was nothing new for Huber, who has been a rock for Whittell in the past seven games. Junior Isaiah Womack was in the mix too, providing Whittell with five touchdowns.
Meanwhile, Virginia City can now show off six landslide victories after its game last week. It dominated last week, steamrollering Coleville 69 - 0. Virginia City brought some defensive heat, getting to the quarterback for six sacks.
Their wins bumped Virginia City and Whittell up to an identical 7-0. Both Virginia City and Whittell are bound to feel confident after their prior matchups, but one team's ego will take a hit. We'll find out which one when the teams meet up this week.
