KEYS TO THE GAME:

For Maroa, Week 1 showed everyone that the post Jack Hockaday era won't necessarily mean much of a drop off. New faces came in and posted 60 points by halftime. Tyler Ray accounted for 221 yards of total offense on 13 plays. And the defense stepped up and posted a shutout – something last year's state runner-up team was unable to accomplish.

For St. Teresa, Week 1 didn't answer too many questions. The Bulldogs' anticipated run game didn't amount to much early and Ryan Fyke was forced to wing it 42 times. He did throw for 333 yards, but he also was picked off three times. That's a recipe for problems as Maroa knows. St. Teresa had four interceptions in last year's matchup, enabling it to pull off the upset.

Tonight's game also will be televised live by WBUI.
