Dumas (2-0) at Canadian (2-0): It’s been all good for Dumas in the first two weeks of the season as the Demons have been dominant, including last week’s lopsided 51-6 rout of Borger. Things will get much tougher this week as they head out to Canadian to take on the powerhouse Wildcats. Dumas QB Colton Mills threw for 184 yards and a score and added 90 yards on the ground and two scores to power a balanced Dumas offensive attack. The Dumas defense was stout as well as the Demons allowed just 159 yards of total offense. Canadian used tough defense and the connection of sophomore QB Weston Mitchell and senior TE Riggs Pennington to slip past Bushland, 24-14, in a 3A showcase matchup last week. Mitchell and Pennington connected for three scoring tosses. Pennington finished with nine catches for 179 yards, while Mitchell was sensational connecting on 30 of 39 passes for 349 yards and the three scores. Canadian’s young defense has been the story early in the year and that unit is the difference-maker in what should be a close matchup despite Dumas being a much larger school. Stepp’s Pick: Canadian by 3
