Game 5: SGP Warriors vs. Nimitz

The Warriors vs the Vikings. This is the first district game for the Warriors, who come in with a 3-1 record. Nimitz is 1-3. The Vikings have lost there last three games, whereas the Warriors have won their last three. And the reason for both teams recent outcomes has been due to defense (or lack thereof). SGP finds itself in the Area 5A top twenty for the first time this season.

Campos had another 100+ yard passing game and McGlothen had another 100+ rushing game. The passing game was a bit more spread out this last time out, where Campos found Peace four times, Moore twice (for his first two catches of the season) and Faucett twice.

The Vikings have given up 130 points in four games this season, finding sucess when they hold their opponents under 20 points (which they have done only once). The last three games, their opponents have averaged almost 40 points a game. The Vikings have scored an average of 26 points. They have played three home games, losing every single time. They are undefeated on the road (1-0) and will be playing the Warriors in the Warrior/Gopher Bowl.

Forecast: The Warriors are hot. They are now considered a "ranked" team, and I am willing to bet that every player on the Warrior's team knows they cracked the top 20. District rival Cedar Hill is the only other team in the Warriors 7-5A district that is ranked (at #11 with a 3-1 record). The Warriors play Cedar Hill after Nimitz at Cedar Hill. This game should be a wash for the Warriors. Look for Campos to continue his string of 100+ passing games. He should be hitting Peace all night long (Peace should have 6 catches at the very least) and McGlothen should rush for over 150 yards. I would say that Campos should end up with close to 200 yards passing, and maybe go as much as 250 yards passing in a game that says that SGP is a player. Score: 48-14.
