The 2014 Iowa High School State Football Playoffs begin tonight with 16 games in each class.  On KJAN tonight, we are featuring an 8-Man match-up with Exira/EHK visiting Sidney.  Both the Spartans and the Cowboys are 7-2.  Exira/EHK will be playing it’s first ever road playoff game after two late season losses.  Quarterback Drew Peppers is not expected to be available tonight as he continues to recover from a knee injury.  Chris Parks will have the call of the game on AM 1220, FM 101.1 and online at www.kjan.com.  Also tonight, Jim Field will be at Class A match-up as Griswold plays at Logan-Magnolia.  The Panthers beat the Tigers 48-16 just three weeks ago in district play and Griswold hopes to get off to a better start this time.  You can hear the game exclusively on the TV page at www.kjan.com.  We can’t provide live video but you can hear the game through our TV channel.  All game tonight begin at 7:00 pm.  Pre-game for our broadcasts begin at 6:00 pm, right after the final edition of “Who’s Gonna Win?” at 5:30 pm.  Here is the complete playoff schedule for tonight.
