Class A, No. 3 Millard North (4-1) at Class A, No. 5 Kearney (5-0): Biggest litmus test of the season for unbeaten Bearcats. Quarterback Kanon Koster leads a balanced offense, but Kearney has got it done with defense so far. The stingy Bearcat defense has yet to give up 20 points and has forced 18 turnovers. | WATCH Kearney Striv Channel

Crete (2-3) at Class B, No. 8 Aurora (3-2): Big swing game in this class. The visiting Cardinals three losses are all to top-five teams (Elkhorn, Skutt and Gretna). Do-everything quarterback Rhett Harms, an Air Force pledge, is the leader for Crete and already has 1,185 yards of total offense. Huskies, state runner-up in 2015, counter with new quarterback Carter Thompson. His favorite target in Alex Kubik and tailback Preston Dibbern has 336 yards rushing. | WATCH Aurora Striv Channel

Class C-2, No. 6 Centennial (5-0) at St. Paul (4-1): Two big surprises in Class C-2 go to battle in their last non-district contest of the regular season. A balanced Centennial attack averages 345 yards per contest (184 rushing, 161 passing) behind quarterback Wyatt Ehlers. Wildcat defense has give up 20 points just once and is led by dual threat quarterback Tanner Wroblewski (646 passing, 369 rushing). | WATCH St. Paul Striv Channel

Osceola (4-1) at Fullerton (5-0): A state-ranking is possible for the winner. The home Warriors are off to a unbeaten start with just two returning starters from last year but, running back Hunter Friend, has been spectacular running for 711 yards already. The Bulldogs counter with three-headed backfield that has nearly 1,300 yards. Caden Theis, Peyton Watts and Brennan Bryan are all over 400 yards on the season. | WATCH Fullerton Striv Channel

Six-Man No. 3 Walthill (4-0) at Six-Man, No. 2 St. Edward (4-0): If you are looking for a doubleheader this is a good place to start at 2:30. The Beavers are doing almost everything on the ground under first-year head coach Darren Luebbe. All-stater Brayden Olsen has 829 yards in four contests. They’ll get a test, however, from a Walthill defense that has allowed 20 points just once in four contests. | WATCH St Edward Striv Channel

Channel Seed Game-of-the-Week — Dundy County-Stratton (3-1) at Class D-1, No. 2 Perkins County (5-0): A pair of playoff teams from 2015 battle for the leg up in the D-1, District 10 race on homecoming in Grant. Plainsmen ride quarterback Charles Johnson and running back Derek Sis, while the Tigers have talented all-around athlete Phalen Sanford at quarterback. | WATCH Perkins County Striv Channel
