Week 4: Friday Night Spotlight

Benton vs DuQuoin

This week’s Friday Night Spotlight is Benton vs DuQuoin. Both the Benton Rangers and the Du Quoin Indians come into this matchup 3-0 and are looking to kick off conference play at 1-0.

The Indians have outscored opponents 136-25 so far, fresh off a dominant 47-6 win over Herrin. The Rangers have been just as impressive, outscoring their opponents 174-7, including last week’s 42-7 road win at Murphysboro.

Both squads bring a balanced offensive attack, leaning on the run and the pass, with dual threat quarterbacks leading the charge. The last two years this matchup has gone down to the wire with DuQuoin coming out on top both times.

The question is, who is going to take it this year?
