Thanks for doing this. There's going to be a lot of good games next week. Can't wait to watch them, but I'm also sad that high school football is coming to an end next week.

The best thing there is about HSFB in Nebraska is the passion that B- thru D-2 Fans have for their teams. We have it in A until you are knocked out.
