Meanwhile, a victory for Columbus just wasn't in the cards last Saturday as the squad wasn't able to take the lead at any point. They were dealt a 35-7 defeat at the hands of Shaw. The Blue Devils have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Hardaway's loss dropped their record down to 2-4. As for Columbus, their defeat dropped their record down to 1-5.
Hardaway skirted past Columbus 27-24 in their previous meeting back in October of 2021. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Columbus' Jonathan Powell, who threw for 200 yards and three touchdowns on only 17 passes.
