It's a similar setup to last year, when New Glarus/Monticello needed to win in Week 9 over Cambridge to clinch a share of the Capitol South. This year, the Knights have a big challenge when they take on unbeaten Cambridge on the road for a share of the conference title.
NG/M coach Jeff Eichelkraut says that the Knights played up this year against primarily Division 4 foes (NG/M is D5) to help prepare them for challenges like they'll see in the playoffs, but also against a talented and speedy team like Cambridge. That in part explains a 4-4 overall record, but also that the Knights have a shot at a share of the conference title despite four losses this season.
