The Destin Sharks will play host again on Friday to welcome the Bozeman Bucks, where kickoff is scheduled at 7:00 p.m.
Destin's offense might be in the hot seat on Friday considering what happened against Opp on Friday. They took a blow against the Bobcats, falling 39-0. While losing is never fun, the Sharks can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' football rankings in their respective home states (they are ranked 485th in Florida, while the Bobcats are ranked 135th in Alabama).
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Bozeman). They put the hurt on Sneads with a sharp 43-20 win last Friday. The high-scoring effort was just what the Bucks needed considering they were shutout in their previous match.
Bozeman relied on the efforts of Hayden Gay, who threw for 182 yards and four touchdowns on only 17 passes, and Kalib Williams, who rushed for 114 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.1 yards per carry.
Bozeman wouldn't let Sneads keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. Bozeman can thank Tyler Murzyn and Jacob Covey for forcing both of them. With that strong performance, Murzyn is now averaging an impressive 5.6 total tackles per game.
Destin dropped their record down to 0-5 with the loss, which was their fourth straight at home dating back to last season. As for Bozeman, their victory bumped their record up to 2-3.
Destin might still be hurting after the 35-9 defeat they got from Bozeman in their previous meeting back in October of 2023. Thankfully for Destin, Peyton Gay (who rushed for 141 yards and a touchdown while picking up 8.3 yards per carry, and also threw for 172 yards and two touchdowns) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
