Football Preview: Seaman Vikings vs. Lansing Lions
The Seaman Vikings will challenge the Lansing Lions at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. The two teams are sauntering into the matchup backed by comfortable wins in their prior games.
Seaman's defense heads into the match hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Friday. They claimed a resounding 49-0 victory over Turner on the road. That 49 point margin sets a new team best for the Vikings this season.
Max Huston continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, throwing for 276 yards and four touchdowns on only 18 passes, while also rushing for 67 yards and a touchdown. His longest rush was for an impressive 57 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total. Bryer Finley was Huston's top target, picking up 148 receiving yards and three touchdowns.
Seaman wouldn't let Turner keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. Seaman can thank Breckan Andrews and Cameron Brian for forcing both of them. Brian is also crushing it when it comes to total tackles: he's made at least five every time he's taken the field this season.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Lansing). They blew past West, posting a 63-0 win at home. The Lions might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won three games by 24 points or more this season.
