Keep an eye on the end zone in Friday's game as both teams haven't had much trouble getting there this season. Glenbrook commands a daunting offense this season, having averaged 5 touchdowns per game. However, it's not like Homer struggles in that department as they've been even better at 5.1 per game. With these two high-octane teams facing off on Friday, fans should be in for an exciting offensive matchup.
Glenbrook didn't have too much breathing room in their matchup against Homer in their previous matchup back in October of 2022, but they still walked away with a 18-14 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for Glenbrook since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
