The Manual Rams are taking a road trip to take on the Urbana Tigers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Manual comes in still looking for their first win of the season.
Manual's offense might be in the hot seat on Friday considering what happened against Normal West on Friday. They took a blow against the Wildcats, falling 48-0. While losing is never fun, the Rams can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Illinois football rankings (they are ranked 396th, while the Wildcats are ranked 96th).
Meanwhile, while Urbana scored more points than they have all season, the final result was a bit underwhelming. They and Richwoods finished up their game with a 14-14 draw on Friday.
Manual's defeat dropped their record down to 0-7. With that draw, Urbana's record moves to 0-6-1.
Everything came up roses for Manual against Urbana in their previous matchup back in October of 2024, as the squad secured a 58-14 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Rams since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
