This is a matchup of two of the best teams in the state of Minnesota . The Cardinals will need to play their best game if they want to upset the Cadets. They will need to limit their errors and serve well. The Cadets are the favorites to win this matchup, but the Cardinals have the potential to pull off the upset. If they can play mistake-free and execute their game plan, they will be in a good position to win.

One of the things that makes this game so unique is the fact that it is a matchup of two teams with very different styles of play. The St. Thomas Academy are a run-first team, while the Alexandria are a pass-first team.

The St. Thomas Academy Cadets are the better team overall. They have the better offense, the better quarterback, and the better running game. The Alexandria Cardinals have a good defense, but they will need to play a perfect game in order to stop the Cadets’ offense.

This difference in styles will create a fascinating chess match between the two coaches. The Cadets will try to establish their running game early, while the Cardinals will try to force the Ramblers to pass the ball.

The key to the game will be the Cardinals’ ability to slow down the Cadets’ running game. The Cadets have a strong running game that is averaging over 200 yards per game. The Cardinals will need to get their linebackers and defensive linemen involved in order to stop the Cadets’ running game.

The Alexandria also need to avoid costly turnovers. The St. Thomas Academy have forced 20 turnovers this season. If the Cardinals can avoid turnovers, they will have a chance to win this game.
