Russell has outscored Raceland 110-39 in their last 3 meetings. In the first of those, they knocked Heighton out of the game causing him to miss the next 4 games. The Devils have a special way of bringing the pain in their rivalry games. I expect nothing less from Russell in this one, especially with 2 former Devils being on the other side. The Rams better strap their helmets on tight and perhaps listen to Al Pacino’s Any Given Sunday speech in the locker room.

That being said, I expect Raceland to try to match Russell’s physical play with the motivation of not wanting to lose the inaugural game on their new turf. What a war this one should be. After seeing both teams play, though, I think Russell is stronger, more physical, and will come out with more anger having lost last week. Devils pull the upset by 3 on a Totten FG.
