The Highland Bulldogs are on the road again on Tuesday to play the Knight Hawks at 5:15 p.m. Highland's defense has only allowed 13.5 points per game this season, so Knight's offense will have their work cut out for them.
Last Saturday, Highland ended up a good deal behind Ventura and lost 26-12. While losing is never fun, the Bulldogs can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 135th, while the Cougars are ranked 11th).
Meanwhile, Knight had already won three in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 15 points) and they went ahead and made it four on Monday. They never let the Antelopes onto the board and left with a 19-0 victory.
Highland's loss dropped their record down to 16-5. As for Knight, their win was their 11th straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 16-2.
Highland beat Knight 18-8 when the teams last played two weeks ago. The rematch might be a little tougher for Highland since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
