  for 607 yards, 10 TDs), Kyle Daniels, Jr., QB (57 for 98, 758 yards, 6 TDs), 
  Grant Shields, Sr., RB (68 rushes for 225 yards, 4 TDs), Kevin Rynne, Jr., WR

<p>Outlook: Although the two teams' overall records are different, the conference 
  records are not. Both teams scored similar results in previous games, blowing 
  out Concordia-River Forest and Eureka, and both teams struggled against Concordia 
  (WI). Aurora will look to duplicate what Concordia (WI) did against the Muskies 
  by running the ball effectively behind Geary Pryor and Grant Shields as they 
  have all year. When in a passing situation, the Spartans will give the ball 
  to reliable quarterback Kyle Daniels, who has only been picked off three times 
  all season, while completing almost 60% of his passes.</p>
<p>The Muskies got back to business as usual last week against Concordia-River 
  Forest, scoring 42 points in the first half, and cruising to an easy victory 
  with 383 yards of offense. Brent Luebke has been the key to the Muskies' success 
  all season, gaining over 1600 yards of total offense on the season, adding 10 
  passing touchdowns and running for six. Marcus Denham has been the workhorse 
  when the Muskies need to mix it up, rushing for six touchdowns of his own. The 
  defense has also shared the success of the season, creating 25 turnovers and 
  giving the offense many opportunities. They've held opposing offenses to just 
  15 points per game. Turnovers will also decide the outcome of this game. Lakeland 
  has proven to be opportunistic when forcing turnovers on defense, but suspect 
  on offense when turning the ball over.</p>
<p>Coaches: Muskie coach Jim Zebrowski is 5-2 in his first year as head coach. 
  Head Coach Jim Scott is 121-58-4 in 17 seasons with the Spartans.</p>
<p>Last Year: The Muskies lost 23-13 at Aurora last season.</p>
