Suggested Video

The Bertrand Vikings will head out on the road to take on the Brady Eagles at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Bertrand is coming in off a wild two-game stretch: after soaring to 34 points last Friday, they were much more limited against Arapahoe on Friday. They had to suffer through a 67-6 loss at the hands of the Warriors. The Vikings haven't had much luck with the Warriors recently, as the team's come up short the last two times they've met.

Meanwhile, Brady came into Friday's match having lost seven straight, but that streak is now in the rearview. They blew past Morrill 46-6 on the road on Friday. The high-scoring effort was just what the Eagles needed considering they were shutout in their previous contest.

Cinch Sanger was nothing short of spectacular: he rushed for 108 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 80 yards and two touchdowns on only six passes. The dominant performance gave him a new career- in rushing yards.

Brady wouldn't let Morrill keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. Brady can thank Andrew Karchner and Shane Nichelson for forcing both of them.

Bertrand's defeat dropped their record down to 0-2. As for Brady, the victory also got them back to even at 1-1.

Bertrand took their win against Brady in their previous matchup back in October of 2015 by a conclusive 48-22. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Brady's Dayne Porter, who rushed for 160 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 52 yards and a touchdown. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be easier for Bertrand to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
