We should be in store for an exciting game Friday as the two teams have no problem gaining yardage. Bryan has been on an offensive roll this season, having averaged 378.7 total yards per game. However, it's not like Midway struggles in that department as they've been even better at 393.1 per game. With a pair of commanding offenses duking it out, the defenses are going to have their work cut out for them.
Everything came up roses for Bryan against Midway when the teams last played back in October of 2022 as the squad secured a 50-21 victory. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Midway's Dom Hill, who rushed for 216 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 7.2 yards per carry. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be that much easier for Bryan to walk away with another win? There's only one way to find out.
