Preview: Oklahoma Christian vs. Okemah
Okemah are hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 32.4 points per game before their next game. Oklahoma Christian and Okemah go head to head on Friday at 7:30 PM in their first playoff matchup of the year. Okemah aren't expected to win, but seeing as the odds didn't stop them last game, maybe the squad has another upset up their sleeve.
Oklahoma Christian took the match with ease, bagging a 58-14 win over Luther last week. No one put up better numbers for Oklahoma Christian than junior Jaxon Canard, who brought his A game into the match. He rushed for 216 yards and 3 touchdowns on 18 carries. Canard has been a consistent playmaker for Oklahoma Christian as this was the eighth good game in a row from him.
Meanwhile, their game last Friday wasn't at all kind to Okemah, but their most recent contest may have softened the blow. They took down Kellyville 36-20.
Their wins lifted both teams to an identical 6-4. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, Okemah and Oklahoma Christian will really light up the scoreboard.
