Looks like a great matchup. Pretty much the 1 and 2 ranked teams all season long. Who ya got?
 
I will take Pella to win, but closer than you guys are saying, I want to say it could be a shootout.
 
Should be a very good game. I have not been able to see West Delaware play, but have to be pretty impressive team. Obviously, they have a stud RB. They have to have a pretty solid D as well. I don't know about the team speed that WD has since I haven't seen them play.

The big question will be if they can keep up with Pella, as Pella will score points and probably lots of them. Being in the dome will make Pella's offense that much more dangerous. I have no doubt that WD will be able to run and will score points. Pella has given up yards on the ground the last two games, but have been able to get some stops. On offense, they have scored a TD on almost every possession, which puts so much pressure on the other team. Noah Clayberg had a hand in 7 TD's against Assumption and is darn near impossible to stop. He doesn't throw like Aaron Rodgers, but is accurate and finds the big receivers.

I know that this certainly may not happen but would be an entertaining title game if Pella and SBL match up. The scoreboard may blow up.
 
For 12 games my read on WD is that they haven't run into an offense that can keep up with theirs. I think that changes this week. If everything I have heard is correct, Pella's O is equal to or perhaps better than WDs. Under the assumption that the two Os are a wash, then I give the upper hand to Pella because of their D and special teams. Throw in the fact that WDs running back is less than 100% (turf toe) and I think that Pella gets a shot at repeating...42-21, Pella.
 
That's what I heard coming out last week's game with Decorah. Guess he was limping noticeably. This is second hand info, so it could be inaccurate. Either way it still doesn't change my prediction of a Pella victory.
 
I see a high scoring game 48-42 Pella. Too many good athletes in a controlled environment.
 
#60 for WD has caused some havoc at NT. Good frame on the kid, could easily put on 50lbs for next year and be a D1 prospect.
