Marion also has a strong defense, anchored by LB/RB Blake Zeman and the three Panthers QBs have thrown 10 interceptions. The Panthers have to find some running lanes for Garner Cox and John Roberts.

TENNESSEE CHRISTIAN HAWKS (0-0) at COPPER BASIN COUGARS (3-2), 7

Storyline: Tennessee Christian is playing its first varsity football game tonight. However, Copper Basin coach Patrick Daley said the Hawks have been playing a junior-varsity schedule and is 4-0 against the jayvee teams that he's aware they've played. He also said they have more upperclassmen than his team does. Both teams favor the run. O-line play has been a strength so far for Copper Basin, leading the way for RBs Aaron English, Ryan Brooks and Quantavious Brown.
