Watch as the Trojans keep rolling in SFL play.

Rivalries are heating up as we get deeper into league play around the Sac-Joaquin Section. Central Catholic creeps into the Sacramento Top 25 football rankings because of Manteca's win over Oakdale. Central Catholic beat Manteca 27-26 back in late September.

Center is now on everyone's radar after beating Bear River 48-17. Center is 6-0 and leaps up to nine overall this week.

Coming up this week, No. 21 Placer hosts No. 22 Rio Linda in what could be Sacramento's Game of the Week.

In El Dorado Hills, No. 8 Oak Ridge will host No. 13 Del Oro in a Sierra Foothill League showdown. Also, No. 1 Folsom hits the road to take on No. 12 Whitney.
