2A Football Rankings
Team (last week) record

Notes: Played in muddy conditions which limited both offenses, the War on 24 showdown between Silver Lake and Rossville didn’t let the conditions detract from the drama. The Eagles built a 17-7 lead, but had to fight off the Bulldawgs late with Rossville missing a game-tying field goal with five minutes left as Silver Lake held on for a 17-14 win.
