For many on the outside looking in, it can be easy to miss just how much the Salina South football team has improved this season.
In a flipped schedule, the Cougars have played the same six opponents to open the season. That murderers' row of Salina Central, Maize South, Derby, Hutch, Valley Center, and Goddard has a combined record of 25-11 entering week seven.
Despite all that, the Cougars have improved their results against those teams by a combined 173 total points, including three tight one-score losses.
Now, the Cougars turn their attention to a team they beat handily last season, and an opportunity to pick up a crucial first win of the season as they welcome in the Campus Colts.
Campus has struggled again this year, extending its losing streak to 17 games dating back to 2023.
The last time the Colts had a winning season was back in 2018, and the last time they did it in back-to-back years was in 2005-06.
For South, not only is this an opportunity to pick up a win, but a chance to do it in style with a high-powered offense that’s had no trouble putting points on the board this season.
Tonight’s game will be streamed live on our Salina Post Sports Network with live video and broadcast commentary.
