The Calhoun Six: Games to Watch

No. 1 Edison (8-0, 3-0) vs. No. 4 Fountain Valley (8-0, 3-0)
Friday, 7 p.m. at Cal State Fullerton, live video on ocvarsity.com

Outlook: Tickets went on sale last week and were sold out in a few hours. Then the game was moved from Orange Coast College to a larger location (Titan Stadium) and tickets went back on sale to fill 10,000-seat stadium.

Both teams are undefeated and the outright lead in the Sunset League race is on the line.

Is there any way that this game will live up to the hype?
