Bowie (7 - 1) is eight games into its season, but it hasn't met anyone harder than the team challenging it next. It and Mansfield (6 - 2) are set to face off this Thursday at 7:00 PM. Bowie is probably hoping the momentum from its comeback win last game is still alive.
Last week, Bowie took on Lamar. Bowie had a mediocre defensive performance in the first half, giving up 24 points. That put it at a 24 - 0 disadvantage. Luckily the offense put up some points in the second half, scoring 26 points. In a stunning comeback after the half, Bowie snuck away with a 26 - 24 win.
As for Mansfield, it scooted by Sam Houston last week with a score of 37 - 20. Senior running back Kennedy Brooks is on a great run: he rushed for 306 yards in the win, and that's his 8th game with over 100 yards rushing. Brooks has been a consistent playmaker for Mansfield as this was the 8th good game in a row from him.
We'll find out on Thursday which team can carry over its success and which team inevitably falls when Bowie and Mansfield clash.
