Suggested Video




Butler is on a five-game streak of home losses also dating back to last season, Brashear a three-game streak of away losses also dating back to last season, but someone's luck is about to change on Friday. The Butler Golden Tornado will host the Brashear Bulls at 7:00 p.m. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this matchup.

Last Friday, Butler was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap as they fell 20-14 to Shaler Area.

Despite the loss, Butler saw an underclassman step up: Jacob Kollinger rushed for 112 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries. Preston Simko also helped out with an impressive 101 receiving yards.

Meanwhile, Brashear fell victim to Cornell and their airtight defense on Saturday. They took a blow against the Raiders, falling 44-0.

Everything came up roses for Butler against Brashear when the teams last played back in September of 2023 as the squad secured a 38-0 win. Will Butler repeat their success, or does Brashear have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
