Nevada Preps football predictions: Will Bishop Gorman beat Mater Dei?

SinCity Press — Bishop Gorman’s Gaels enter Friday night’s clash with a 3‑1 record and a No. 8 national ranking from MaxPreps. They face Mater Dei, which stands at 4‑0 and holds the No. 13 spot in the same poll. The Gaels have never defeated the Monarchs, carrying an 0‑5 all‑time record against them.
