The Gardena Serra Cavaliers host the Santa Monica Vikings Friday night in a Southern Section quarterfinal matchup from the Western division. Both teams enter the contest on a roll, having dominated their first round opponents.

Santa Monica is led by standout receiver and USC commit Sebastian Larue, but the Vikings also possess an effective run game that should present a challenge to the stout Serra defense.

1. Collin Klein QB Kansas State

Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein is still in the lead for the Heisman after leading the Wildcats to a 23-10 road victory over TCU. Klein rushed for two more touchdowns bringing his season total to 19. Klein has thrown 12 touchdowns while completing 70 percent of his pass attempts.

At 10-0 and ranked first in the BCS standings, Optimus Klein has the Wildcats two wins from a berth in the national championship game. If the Wildcats win out, it will be difficult for voters to deny Klein the Heisman.

2. Marqise Lee WR USC

The St. John Bosco Braves overpowered the Tesoro Titans 38-17 on a frigid night in Bellflower to advance in the Pac 5 playoffs. The Braves will face Notre Dame (Sherman Oaks) next week.

Both teams settled for field goals early. With the game tied 3-3, the Braves took the lead on 7-yard touchdown run by Darren Walker.

Tesoro answered with an explosive 57-yard touchdown burst from senior running back Nate Tago.

St. John Bosco sophomore quarterback Josh Rosen connected with junior running back Lonell Woodhouse on a 22-yard touchdown pass to give the Braves a 17-10 advantage.

2. Kenjon Barner RB Oregon

The state of the USC Trojans and their 2013 recruiting class has come under fire from the fan base after their loss to the Oregon Ducks, their third of the season. The following day, safety Max Redfield de-committed from the Trojans and the speculation quickly followed.

Was this the beginning of a fallout? Are more recruits to follow? Could some of the anchors of the Trojans’ recruiting class also be looking at other schools?

Well, we were able to talk to defensive tackle commit Kenny Bigelow about where he stands and if the Trojan faithful should be worried.

Watch this Max Redfield Official Highlight Video Mix from CLA Sports. Redfield fueled the Mission Viejo victory over El Toro, and the Diablos claimed the South Coast League title in a 49-7 blowout.

Redfield indicated that he was a "soft commit" to the Trojans after the victory over El Toro, and made the decision the day after USC's loss to the Oregon Ducks that he is no longer committed to the Trojans for 2013.

Look for recruiting to heat up for Max Redfield from schools such as Oregon, Notre Dame, Washington and LSU.

The Mission Viejo Diablos overpowered the El Toro Chargers 49-7 in a highly anticipated clash for the South Coast League crown. Both teams came into the game undefeated but the Diablos proved supreme.

The Mission Viejo defense forced Utah bound El Toro quarterback Conner Manning into six interceptions and bottled up the Chargers high-powered offense.
