The McGehee Owls will be playing in front of their home fans against the Fordyce Redbugs at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Each of these teams will be fighting to keep a win streak alive as McGehee comes in on three and Fordyce on nine.
Last Friday, McGehee didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Dumas, but they still walked away with a 24-20 win.
Meanwhile, Fordyce had just enough and edged Rison out 30-28 on Friday. The 30-point effort marked the Redbugs' lowest-scoring contest of the season, but in the end it didn't matter.
McGehee pushed their record up to 6-3 with the victory, which was their fourth straight on the road. Those victories were due in large part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 33.8 points per game. As for Fordyce, their win bumped their record up to 9-0.
McGehee skirted past Fordyce 27-24 in their previous meeting back in November of 2019. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Fordyce's Ja'Quez Cross, who picked up 69 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 71 yards on only nine carries. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be easier for McGehee to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
