The Idaho prep football season kicks off in earnest tonight, with several area teams facing stiff nonleague tests.

Grangeville vs. Moscow at the Kibbie Dome

Loser of two of its past three games against Grangeville, 4A Moscow hopes to showcase its newfound physicality against the 2A Bulldogs, who routinely beat teams from upper classifications.

Kamiah vs. Oakley at New Plymouth

As much as any team, Oakley challenged eventual state champion Prairie during the state playoffs last year. So the Hornets ought to provide the Kubs a barometer for where they stand.

Lewiston at Lakeland

Hoping to turn a new leaf, the Bengals seek to avenge last year's two-touchdown loss to the Hawks in 2014's season opener, one of eight setbacks Lewiston stumbled through last year.
