Auburn is hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 33.11 points per game. They will look to defend their home turf on Thursday against Kentlake at 7 p.m. ET. Auburn is expected to win -- but not by much -- so they will need to come into the matchup prepared for a fight.
It was a hard-fought contest, but the Trojans had to settle for a 35-27 defeat against Jefferson last week. Connor Howat put forth a good effort for the losing side as he rushed for 96 yards and one TD on 11 carries.
Meanwhile, Kentlake kept a clean sheet against Kent-Meridian. Kentlake took their game with ease, bagging a 58-0 win over Kent-Meridian. The game was pretty much decided by the half, when the score had already reached 37 to nothing.
Kentlake's victory lifted them to 1-8 while Auburn's loss dropped them down to 2-7. We'll see if Kentlake can repeat their recent success or if Auburn bounces back and reverse their fortune.
