We’ve reached the penultimate week of the regular season, and the stakes are high.

The Week 8 AnnArbor.com “Game of the Week” poll features rivalry games, games with conference title implications, and teams searching to lock up a playoff spot.

Here are this week’s games:

• Carleton Airport will travel to Milan, as the Big Reds look to continue their strong start to the season.
• Dexter will make the seven-mile trip down to Chelsea, to face a Bulldogs team that may still be in the hunt for a league title and definitely a playoff berth.
• Michigan Center will visit Manchester, in a game that could decide this year’s Cascades Conference champion.
• Pioneer and Huron will face off in the Ann Arbor crosstown rivalry. Pioneer will be looking to extend its nine-game winning streak in the series, and depending on the outcome of their Week 7 game, will look to become either become playoff-eligible or an automatic playoff qualifier while wrapping up either a shared or outright SEC Red championship.
• Saline will visit Skyline, as the Hornets and Eagles close out SEC Red play.

Fans can vote once per hour until the poll closes at 6 p.m. Tuesday.
