This is the Game of the Week in the Huron League. Milan (1-1) is coming off of a 55-6 victory over Flat Rock while Riverview (1-1) fell to SMCC 14-12. Riverview won last season’s game 21-7 and leads the all time series 9-7.
Milan is fully healthy now with the return of junior RB Trace Lindeman. He along with junior QB Demetrius Barnes give the Big Reds an extremely potent offense. The Big Red defense is led by senior LB Cortez Gray.
Riverview was plagued by turnovers last week. Look for the Pirates to try and run the ball as much as possible in an effort to shorten the game. The Riverview defense is led by senior LB Tyler Chase.
This should be a great game. A healthy high powered spread offense by Milan against a very physical Pirate defense. This game may come down to Riverview’s ability to score points off of Milan’s turnovers. I think Milan’s overall team speed will be the difference. Pick: Milan 20 Riverview 19

I really want to go to the game tonight....not really wanting to sit in the (possible) rain... I have been keeping an eye on the Radar, and it looks like alot of it has already started to disipate....if this trend keeps up I will be there for sure. This will be a true measure on how good Milan will be, as it seems Riverview has a pretty good defense, Milan like always has speed all over the place, and a good defense as well.
My key players are Barnes, Gray and Lindeman, no disrepect to the rest of the guys...its a team, I am just saying if these 3 particular guys perform like they can, it will be a tough game for Riverview, those 3 are really that good!
Barnes' determination to make the right play everysingle down..
Gray's ability to be a GREAT 2 way player in RB and LB and his toughness is 2nd to none..
Lindeman's agility/toughness to run both between and off tackle, and his track speed is outstanding..
Yes, I know, I'm might be being a bit of a homer, but I have watched Milan football for over 25 years and I say again if these 3 guys are on....WATCH OUT!
Milan win in dominated game from start to finish 35-13 Lindamen Gets 200 yards 4 TD no one can run with him he's to fast
He (Chase) is a tough kid. I'm sure he will be playing. Great catcher at baseball too.

That would be a huge development in this game. It just shows you how things can change from week to week in HS football. Riverview will have to rally around their sidelined teammate with a full team effort.
You mean Chase for Riverview? Happen during SMCC or practice?
Rumor has it, Chase is out for Milan. Concussion
Going to be a great game no doubt about it. Good luck to both team. Bb
my comment was 7:33 when I said #5 I meant #11 (last year was 5)
Someone save me a seat at the game tomorrow
You can sit with me on Milan's side.

To start off, riverview will win 21-14. Also last week at CC that was the only time I have truly seen riverview beat themselves because they have NO QB. once either one of those guys figures it out they will not lose again. Their defense is outstanding. They should've beaten CC but their offense was very slow and turnover after turnover didn't help to much. They need to develop speed in the backfield,. Someone teach #5 how to run up field. A strong point is their WR, great speed with great hands. many tweaks to their team but if they fix it, they have a shot at huron.
