Football Game Preview: Rugby vs. Bottineau

Bottineau have been homebodies their last two matches, but they are heading out on Friday. They take on Rugby at 7:00 PM. Bottineau are limping into the matchup on a five-game losing streak.

Bottineau have to be aching after a bruising 16-46 defeat to Harvey/Fessenden-Bowdon last Friday.

Meanwhile, their game two weeks ago wasn't at all kind to Rugby, but their most recent game may have softened the blow. They were the clear victor by a 38-6 margin over Westhope/Newburg/Glenburn.

The last time the two teams met, Bottineau came out on top in a nail-biter against Rugby, sneaking past 8-6. The rematch might be a little tougher for Bottineau since the team won't have home-field advantage. Watch the game and check back on MaxPreps to see if the change in venue makes a difference.
