Modesto at San Mateo, 1 p.m.: Fans of multi-faceted run offenses will want to keep an eye on this matchup between the Pirates (1-0) and Bulldogs (1-0). Few attacks have proven able to keep up with CSM's in recent years, but Modesto was impressive in a 41-10 drubbing of ARC in the opener.

Chabot at Diablo Valley, 7 p.m.: A pair of comfortable Week 1 winners square off -- DVC was a 45-14 winner over Feather River in Week 1 and Chabot, led by Ferreira, knocked off Butte with ease. An offensive shootout could materialize.

(Sept. 12, 2015)

Contra Costa at West Hills, 7 p.m.: A 37-12 winner over Cabrillo to start the season, Contra Costa will look to be the first team to score points against West Hills, which pitched a 21-0 shutout over San Jose in the opener.
