East Ridge (Woodbury, Minn.) vs. Eden Prairie (Minn.)



What to watch: Four-star junior quarterback Seth Green hopes to lead upstart East Ridge to a state playoff stunner over longtime power Eden Prairie. Green, a 6-foot-3, 210-pound dual threat who committed to Oregon earlier this season, completed only four passes for 54 yards in a 20-17 win over Osseo last week but ran for 81 yards on just 10 carries, according to twincities.com. This is the first nine-win season for East Ridge (9-1) since the school opened in 2009. Conversely, Eden Prairie (10-0) has hit 10 wins in a season for the 10th time in 11 years. The Eagles advanced with a 34-14 win over Burnsville last week. Senior running back William Rains gained a season-high 178 rushing yards and three touchdowns for EP.
