The Colonial Grenadiers will challenge the University Cougars at 6:00 p.m. on Monday. The teams are on pretty different trajectories at the moment (Colonial has three straight wins, University has four straight losses), but none of that matters once you're on the field.
Colonial's defense heads into the contest hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Wednesday. They came out on top against Wekiva by a score of 7-0.
Meanwhile, Wednesday just wasn't the day for University's offense. They took a blow against Timber Creek on Wednesday, falling 32-0. While losing is never fun, the Cougars can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Florida football rankings (they are ranked 350th, while the Wolves are ranked 42nd).
Colonial pushed their record up to 7-5 with the victory, which was their third straight at home. Those home wins came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 4.0 points on average over those games. As for University, their defeat dropped their record down to 1-8.
Colonial didn't have too much breathing room in their game against University in their previous meeting last Thursday, but they still walked away with a 6-0 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Grenadiers since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
