Suggested Video

The Springfield Longhorns will hit the road for the first time this season to take on the Elbert Bulldogs at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this contest.

Springfield is leaving town to face Elbert after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. Springfield fell to Clayton 22-16. The loss continues a trend for the Longhorns in their matchups with the Yellowjackets: they've now lost three in a row.

Meanwhile, after soaring to 60 points the game before, Elbert was a bit more limited in their match on Friday. They had to suffer through a 40-12 loss at the hands of McClave.

Although Elbert took the loss, they still got scores from Eli Cornell and Kaleb Morano.

Springfield took a serious blow against Elbert in their previous matchup back in September of 2019, falling 56-12. Can Springfield avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
