BOISE, Idaho — Squads across the Gem State look to secure their spot at the post-season table and leap ahead of conference rivals in Week 6 with only a month until the 2023 Idaho high school football state championships kick off.
Headlining the Friday night slate in the 5A SIC is a showdown between No. 1 Eagle and No. 2 Boise, who sit in a tie atop the River Division standings. The Mustangs have maintained top-ranked status the majority of the fall, while the Brave soared up Tuesday's state media poll after knocking off No. 5 Mountain View last week.
The state's top-ranked 4A team in Bishop Kelly pays a visit to Burley Friday for a non-conference bout. A pair of SIC contests features Columbia hosting Emmett, and Ridgevue traveling to Vallivue. The Huskies look to get back on track after consecutive losses to Skyview and Twin Falls.
Third-ranked Weiser hopes to keep pace with No. 1 Sugar-Salem and No. 2 Homedale in Week 6, as it squares off with McCall-Donnelly on the road. Both the Wolverines and Vandals ride into Friday's matchup undefeated.
At the 2A level, Melba welcomes Cole Valley Christian Friday on the heels of its first loss of 2023. Meanwhile, Marsing makes its way to Canyon County to battle Nampa Christian.
KTVB's Friday Night Football featuring Brady Frederick will be live at 10:40 p.m. Friday with highlights from games around the Treasure Valley. The show airs on KTVB.COM, KTVB's YouTube channel and KTVB+.
