PATCH POLL: Who Will Win? Bulldogs or North Stars?

Who will win under the Friday night lights at St. Charles North?

Yes, Batavia is the favorite in Friday night's contest at St. Charles North.

But the North Stars have home field advantage, a lot to win and nothing to lose in the Upstate Eight River Division contest.

The Bulldogs are 5-1 overall, the one loss coming at the hands of state-ranked Richards in Week 2. The North Stars are 3-3 overall, but 3-0 at home and just finished stomping Streamwood 55-6 a week ago.

If you want to apply the transitive property, Batavia has the advantage. The Bulldogs beat the Vikings at Burgess Field; the North Stars lost to the Vikings at Burgess Field. By the same token, Batavia beat Streamwood 56-14, so it's possible these two teams are more evenly matched than their records might indicate.

Who do you think will win Friday night? The game will be broadcast live on both the High School Cube and BATV.
