The Har-Ber Wildcats will head out to face off against the Pulaski Academy Bruins at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Har-Ber is no doubt hoping to put an end to a nine-game streak of away losses dating back to last season.
Har-Ber is coming in off a wild two-game stretch: after soaring to 42 points last Friday, they were much more limited against Fayetteville on Friday. They were beaten by the Bulldogs 53-7. While losing is never fun, the Wildcats can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Arkansas football rankings (they are ranked 42nd, while the Bulldogs are ranked eighth).
Meanwhile, Pulaski Academy humbled Little Rock Christian Academy with a 40-8 victory. Considering the Bruins have won six matchups by more than 19 points this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
Brandon Cobb continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, rushing for 155 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 7.8 yards per carry, and also throwing for 350 yards and three touchdowns while completing 78.4% of his passes. That's the most rushing yards he has posted since back in September. Another player making a difference was Ja'Vion Walker, who gained 97 total yards and a touchdown.

Things could have been worse for Har-Ber, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took an 84-68 loss to Pulaski Academy in their previous meeting back in August of 2019. Thankfully for Har-Ber, Braden Bratcher (who threw for 764 yards and nine touchdowns while picking up 14.7 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 136 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
