Big Game from Brinkley As Boyd Fell 25-18
Boyd had to settle for second on Friday, but Drew Brinkley sure wasn't going down easily. Bowie had no answer to Brinkley as he picked up 99 receiving yards and a touchdown. Brinkley didn't just play on offense: he also made five total tackles and defended a pass.
Boyd is on a six-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-6. Brinkley will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Iowa Park on Friday.
