10:15 a.m.Tonight’s Napa-Vintage Big Game at Memorial Stadium has been voted as the “KTVU High School Football Game of the Week.”

KTVU, which will air highlights of the contest on its 10 p.m. newscast tonight, is billing the annual intra-city rivalry as a “wine country showdown.”
The Big Game — which has a 7:30 p.m. kickoff — was one of five games that were available for fans to vote on all week on the TV station’s Web site, KTVU.com. Napa-Vintage won by a landslide.

Other choices included San Ramon Valley-Monte Vista, Fairfield-Armijo, Archbishop Mitty-Serra and Monta Vista-Cupertino.
Napa enters Big Game XXXVII in first place, having already clinched at least a tie for the Monticello Empire League title and a No. 1 seed for the upcoming CIF Sac-Joaquin Section Division I playoffs. Napa will be looking to win its eighth straight game and lock down homefield advantage for the first three weeks of the playoffs, which start on Nov. 21.

For those of you wanting a quicker update on the game, check here at NapaValleyRegister.com for constant Big Game updates as they happen, and game recaps and stories from both schools as soon as they become available.

" Very cool, KTVU. Thanks! This is huge for our town. The kids from both teams will show their spirit tonight by playing a great game, win or lose, and the stands will be wild.

Can't wait for the half time show. I heard Napa High Band is going to knock 'em dead tonight! Go Napa High Band! You are the best! "
