No. 5 Eden Prairie at No. 3 Stillwater, 10/19, 7 p.m.

This game is the SBLive game of the week. Eden Prairie travels to Stillwater to face the Ponies, who look to remain undefeated on the year. Eden Prairie rebounded after a blowout loss to Shakopee by defeating Edina 42-16. Eden Prairie will look to slow down Stillwater quarterback Max Shikenjanski, who struggled last week against Mounds View.

Stillwater was tied last week with Mounds View at halftime 7-7. The Ponies scored 28 straight points en route to a 35-7 victory, but they have shown signs of vulnerability the last few weeks. Forest Lake had multiple chances to beat Stillwater two weeks ago and White Bear Lake came within a touchdown of tying the game late in the fourth quarter three weeks ago.
