Okeechobee is headed into the contest out to prove that what happened against Harmony on Thursday (when they were outscored in every quarter) was just a minor bump in the road. Okeechobee had to suffer through a 49-9 loss at the hands of Harmony. The Brahmans were already down big by the end of the third quarter and they stayed that way after failing to score in the fourth.
Meanwhile, it's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 69-37, which was the final score in Moore Haven's tilt against Lake Region on Wednesday.
