With the football regular season nearing its end, each game is taking on added importance. That’s when factoring in both the CHSAA Selection and Seeding Index as well as league races which will give league champions automatic berths in the postseason.

Cherry Creek could looking at its toughest challenge yet in Arapahoe, Montrose and Mesa Ridge will battle for the inside track to a league crown, Lutheran faces another tough set in Northfield, TCA faces of against a surging Kent Denver team, Limon gets another tough league test in Wiggins, Mancos has to deal with a tough Sanford team and Stratton faces another top-10 squad in Arickaree. There is a lot of action across all seven classifications this weekend.

Several of these games can be seen on the NFHS Network.
