The Oakland-Craig Knights won big at Tekamah-Herman Friday night, winning by the final score of 61-12.

Tekamah-Herman scored 6 third quarter points to make it a 53-12 game at the end of three.

Oakland-Craig did a great job taking care of business against the Tigers. Tekamah-Herman was decimated by injury, but the Knights didn't feel sorry for them. Oakland-Craig went out there and dominated.
The Knights (2-1) have a tough road test at Crofton (3-0) Friday night.
The Warriors are coming off a 48-8 win at home over Laurel-Concord-Coleridge this past Friday night, and have gotten off to a very good start.
Crofton is tough, although this is going to be their first real test.
I look for Oakland-Craig to go up there and come away with a win. As good as the Warriors are, I think the Knights are even better.
I think Oakland-Craig will win by a touchdown or two.
Mayberry, Hos Smith, and Ben Smith all have to have good games running the ball for the Knights, and Mitchell has to be effective in the passing game.
It's important for Oakland-Craig to start fast, and play a complete game.
This isn't going to be an easy game for the Knights. Oakland-Craig has to come ready to play, and bring it for four quarters.
Crofton isn't going to lay down and just let the Knights win. Oakland-Craig is going to have to take it from the Warriors.
Friday night's game should be close. As I said above I think the Knights will find a way to win, but it won't be easy. Oakland-Craig is going to have to play well to come away with the win.
The Knights need to play well to gain momentum for the Ponca game next week.
