Mike Says: The Raiders bring back a lot of talent at the skill positions with QB Bowen leading the group. They will have to replace all 5 offensive linemen though. Look for them to go 8-2 or 9-1 in the regular season. Their game against Amarillo will probably be for the district championship. Their 2 losses last year came to Wolfforth Frenship and Aledo who combined for a 24-3 record.

Chris Says: Canyon Randall has been on a tear the past few years and it looks to continue this season. The Raiders bring back 16 lettermen led by the district offensive MVP, quarterback, Collin Bowen. Expect Canyon Randall to compete for the District 3-4A title and then take a couple of playoff wins.
