What to watch: A Friday showdown of unbeaten teams and a showcase for two of the top running backs in the state of South Carolina.
Matt Colburn (5-foot-8, 159 pounds) has helped Dutch Fork average nearly 50 points in its first four games. The speedy junior has 836 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns on just 103 carries. Goose Creek's go-to guy is senior
Caleb Kinlaw, a Georgia Tech recruit who averages eight yards per carry and has 11 touchdowns.
Just the facts: Tom Knotts helped Independence (Charlotte, N.C.) win 109 consecutive games – the second-longest streak in prep football history – between 2000 and 2007. He has a 35-10 record since becoming Dutch Fork's head coach in 2010. … Goose Creek has won 30 consecutive games on the field (i.e. not counting forfeits) but was ruled ineligible to defend its Division II-AAAA state title last season because it used an ineligible player.
