Madison West football is about to enter the gauntlet portion of their 2019 schedule, playing three of the Big 8's top contenders in a row. It starts Friday night against Middleton, and then the Regents will see Verona and Madison Memorial the following weeks.
Coach Brad Murphy knows that there's a challenge ahead of his program, but that players and coaches embrace that opportunity to play top competition each week in the conference.
Murphy adds that the City of Madison's football teams are in a good place right now, and that after last week's win over Madison East, it's pretty clear that all four Big 8 city schools are playing good football right now.
