Mountain View could be the most unpredictable team in Tucson. While we anticipated the Mountain Lions would get back on track last week with a win over then-undefeated Desert View, we didn't expect the game to be as lopsided as it was β Mountain View won 60-37, handing the Jaguars their first loss of the 2016 campaign. Β
The telling statistic of that game: Before last week, Desert View hadn't given up more than 20 points in any game this year. Then the Mountain Lions came along and exploded for 60 points behind senior quarterback Caleb Ryden, who absolutely went off on the Jaguars. He threw for 285 yards and four touchdowns and also rushed for 182 yards and two more scores. Β
Expect Mountain View to win its next two tilts, which are at Sahuaro (2-5) and against Sierra Vista Buena (0-7), respectively. The Mountain Lions then finish the regular season with a showdown against No. 1 Cienega.Β
