The LaFayette Bulldogs are taking a road trip to take on the Loachapoka Indians at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
Last Friday, LaFayette was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap as they fell 19-14 to Ranburne. The loss was LaFayette's first of the season.
Meanwhile, Loachapoka couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They took a 21-12 hit to the loss column at the hands of Lee-Scott Academy last Friday. While losing is never fun, the Indians can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Alabama football rankings (they are ranked 255th, while the Warriors are ranked 99th).
Having lost for the first time this season, LaFayette fell to 2-1. As for Loachapoka, their defeat ended a five-game streak of wins at home dating back to last season and dropped them to 0-1.
LaFayette might still be hurting after the 32-12 loss they got from Loachapoka in their previous meeting back in August of 2023. Thankfully for LaFayette, Jeremiah Darlington (who rushed for 141 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.1 yards per carry) won't be suiting up this time.
