Two vastly different versions of the spread offense will be on display this weekend when Enterprise hosts Grand in the 2A quarterfinals at 1 p.m.

Enterprise will spread it out and throw the ball all day, whereas Grand will spread it out and try and run the majority of the time. It should make for a very intriguing playoff game.

"We need to slow their offense down by putting pressure on their quarterback," said Grand coach Dennis Wells. "If we give him time he'll pick us apart."

Enterprise quarterback Slade Moyle has completed 133-of-226 passes this year for 1,634 yards and 14 touchdowns. Even though the Wolves are a throw-first team, Moyle and running back Ryan West are more than capable of getting yards on the ground as well as they've combined for 976 yards and 16 touchdowns this year.

"We haven't seen a spread offense all year, it's kind of scary. We've got a lot of things to work on," said Wells.

Not much was expected of Enterprise heading into the season, but region wins over Kanab and South Sevier earned the Wolves a share of the 2A West region title and a bye last weekend.

Grand had somewhat the same level of expectations entering the season, but even those expectations dropped off in region play as it lost to South Summit, San Juan and then North Sevier.

It was the 28-16 loss to North Sevier on Oct. 9 that seemed to be the last straw. To the Red Devils' credit they've bounced back the past couple of weeks and are coming off a convincing 41-14 play-in game victory over Beaver.

"I think teams might be overlooking us," said Wells. "If the team shows up the way they did against North Sevier we can lose to anybody, but if they play like they did the past two weeks we can beat anybody."

Billy Keddington and Dallen Dalton share the running load for Grand, each of whom has rushed for over 700 yards and 10 touchdowns this year.
