Luke Brand Turns in Season-Best Performance

Brand threw for 293 yards and two touchdowns while completing 84.6% of his passes, and also punched in three touchdowns on the ground. Milford is 2-1 when Brand posts two or more rushing touchdowns, but 2-4 otherwise.

Justice Burnam Goes Supernova in Anderson Victory
Anderson picked up their ninth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Justice Burnam. Burnam did his part (and then some), throwing for 319 yards and three touchdowns while completing 78.1% of his passes, and also rushing for 35 yards and a touchdown for the 'W'.
If the past is any indication, Burnam could be in store for another big game when he takes on Loveland on Friday. Back in August of 2023 (the last time Burnam saw the Tigers), he threw for 391 yards and three touchdowns while completing 79.4% of his passes, and also rushed for 96 yards.
