Football Game Preview: Benjamin Franklin vs. New Era Academy

On Thursday Benjamin Franklin will take on New Era Academy . Neither Benjamin Franklin nor New Era Academy could muster much offensive firepower in their last games, so look to the defense to decide this one.

It's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 0-44, which was the final score in Benjamin Franklin's tilt against National Academy Foundation last Friday. The state rankings had actually given Benjamin Franklin a slight edge heading into the game, making this hurt that much more.

After a string of three wins, New Era Academy's good fortune finally ran out two weeks ago. They took a hard 0-18 fall against Green Street Academy.

With the two teams each stumbling in off of a defeat, both will be hungry for the win. Hopefully the teams can find a way to make up for their last outings by putting some points on the board this time.
