Football Preview: Carter Lions vs. Notre Dame Titans

Suggested Video

Carter is preparing for their first league matchup of the season on Thursday. After each having a week off, they and the Notre Dame Titans will shake off the cobwebs and hit the field against one another at 7:30 p.m. Carter will be strutting in after a victory while Notre Dame will be coming in after a loss.

Last Friday, Carter needed a bit of extra time to put away Linfield Christian. In a tight contest that could have gone either way, they made off with a 34-33 win over Linfield Christian. The high-scoring performance was a welcome turnaround for Carter's offense, which had struggled in the games prior.

Andre Clark and Deshalon Allen were among the main playmakers for Carter as the former rushed for 77 yards and one TD on only five carries and the latter rushed for 128 yards. Clark was even better on defense, picking up two sacks and making six total tackles (3.0 for loss).

Wins are hard to come by when you can't run the rock, something Carter proved: they limited Linfield Christian to a paltry 2.5 yards per carry. The team can thank Anthony Sengbe for the heroic effort on defense: he. Carter didn't have any issues in that department, having averaged 6.5.

Meanwhile, Notre Dame played a tough game last Saturday in which they were outscored in every quarter. They took a blow against Aquinas, falling 69-6. The Titans have struggled against the Falcons recently, as the game was their eighth consecutive lost matchup.

Notre Dame's defeat dropped their record down to 1-4. As for Carter, they moved to 2-3 with that victory, which also ended their three-game losing streak.

Everything came up roses for Carter against Notre Dame in their previous matchup back in October of 2024, as the squad secured a 58-0 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Lions since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
