Are you the kind of football fan who can’t get enough about what’s going on in the Orange County high school football scene? Thought so.

OCVarsity and The Register have just the thing for you, a new series called “Tough Knocks” that debuts tonight. And you can see it tonight exclusively on the Register’s iPad application. It will be available beginning at 6 p.m., so be sure to download the app if you haven’t already.

Tonight’s episode will focus on Santa Margarita High, the No. 3 team in the OCVarsity preseason Top 25, as it begins its preparations for the season.
