Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 10:34:52 GMT

FORT COLLINS — Saturday’s Class 5A championship at Canvas Stadium is the next chapter in a friendly but fierce rivalry between two Colorado football icons that goes back three decades.Dave Logan’s Cherry Creek Bruins take on Andy Lowry’s Columbine Rebels in the third title bout between the two head coaches with more than six decades of combined experience, and 16 combined championships.It’s a rivalry rooted in mutual respect for the men who got their starts at humble Jeffco programs in the early 1990s, Logan at Arvada West and Lowry at Lakewood.

The question this week: Can the Broncos really keep this takeaway bonanza they’ve been on rolling? They have 15 in their past four games and at least three in each of those. Before that, they didn’t log more than two in a game and had seven in their first seven games.Nobody’s expecting 15 more over the next four games, but let’s do it this way: Over the past 10 seasons in the NFL, the average league l...
