These two teams will be pretty much evenly matched. Both teams have some talented players and the Lightning have Brad Collins throwing the ball which has been commented as having the strongest arm in the league by some of his peers.

The Lightning had a great showing at home in week one where they only lost by 14 points to the Knights but then last week they traveled awfully thin with only 14 guys to Spokane. Even with thin numbers they battled to the bitter end. Rumor has it that they were missing several key players due to military commitments which may not be the same problem this week. The one thing that is consistent with this team is the play of their QB Brad Collins.

The Riverhawks lost a tough game to the Bulldogs in the first week. They had last week off and have gotten a chance to get some rest. Emerson Fergueson is the go to guy that they will look to get going early. One of the preseason strengths for them is their offensive line. They struggled in week one and gave up seven sacks, six to one player, and will look to correct that this week.

Analysis- There are many unknowns in this game. The key will come down to a couple of things. First is how well will the Lightning travel this week? Second is will the Riverhawks give their quarterback enough time to be able to throw the ball? I think I will toss a coin on this one and let's see

Prediction- Riverhawks win at home.
