5. Whitefish (94, 491, 5.22, 98.20, 6)

Ronan and Columbia Falls like to run the ball, Polson is a little behind because they balance things out nicely with their passing offense.

Team passing
1. Whitefish (158 attempts, 94 completions, 59.49% percentage, 1132 yards, 4 touchdowns, 9 interceptions, 226.40 per game)
2. Polson (81, 47, 58.02%, 736, 4, 6, 184.00)
3. Libby (110, 53, 48.18%, 658, 7, 9, 131.60)

5. Col. Falls (73, 25, 34.25%, 467, 7, 6, 93.40)

So while Whitefish does lead the league in passing, they are also tied for more interceptions and fewest touchdown passes. What does that mean? An inefficient passing game.

5. Ronan (142, 75, 52.82%, 1248, 16.64, 249.60)

People have trouble passing against Polson with all their talented defensive backs. It's kind of surprising they're no. 1 because they usually seem to be leading by a large margin so you would think their opponents would be throwing downfield a lot.
