A matchup between two of the top junior quarterbacks in the west. St. John Bosco (2-0) has looked like the best all-around team in California through two weeks of the season, blowing out Dominguez (40-7) in the opener and defending CIF Central Section Division I champion Clovis North (48-0) last week. Five-star junior quarterback
Josh Rosen has completed more than 75 percent of his passes for 551 yards and six touchdowns for the Braves. Fellow unbeaten Chandler also broke the 40-point barrier in both its games. The Wolves scored 51 in the first half of last week's 65-13 rout of Buena (Sierra Vista). Chandler's four-star junior quarterback
Bryce Perkins has 509 combined passing and rushing yards with nine touchdowns.
Just the facts: California owns a 10-4 advantage in games played against teams from Arizona so far this season. … Chandler's last game versus a nationally ranked opponent was a 38-20 loss to crosstown rival Hamilton (Chandler) in 2010.
