This week, Exeter-Milligan (0-3) and Meridian (2-1) square off against each other on Friday. Exeter-Milligan is hoping to reclaim some of the glory it left behind after its shocking comeback loss last game.
Last week, Exeter-Milligan took on Pawnee City. Exeter-Milligan's offense came in ready to rumble, picking up 32 points in the first half. That put it at a 32 - 14 advantage. Unfortunately, Exeter-Milligan's defense allowed 32 points in the second half, dropping the lead when it really counted. It just fell apart after the half, letting a very likely win slip into a bitter 46 - 44 defeat. Meanwhile, Meridian didn't have too much trouble with Weeping Water in its last game, where Meridian won 34 - 16.
Both Meridian and Exeter-Milligan have been struggling on the defensive side of the ball (the former allowing an average of 35.33 points per game, the latter an average of 55.33 points per game). We'll find out which offense can take advantage of this fact when the two teams meet this week.
