Putnam City (4-0, 1-0) at Del City (1-3, 0-1)
When: 7:30 p.m. Friday
Where: Robert Kalsu Stadium, Del City (Ryan Aber will be there)

Putnam City (W – PC North 16-7, W – PC West 44-0, W – Choctaw 42-22, W – US Grant 47-0)
Why the Pirates could win: Confidence — the Pirates have it and it would appear the Eagles are struggling in that department. Nearly 72 percent of the total offense Del City has allowed this season has come on the ground. That’s good news for Casey Curtis and company.

Del City (L – MWC 35-13, W – NNorth 41-14, L – Norman 41-6, L – Edmond North 36-21)
Why the Eagles could win: Because the pieces are in place for a team that should be competitive in every single game. Discipline and conditioning has been the downfall so far. But Greg Johnson is a dynamic talent that can change the fate of the game with one play.
