Emerson has been a homebody their last two games, but they are heading out on Friday. They will take on Butler at 7 p.m. ET. Both teams have allowed few points on average (the Cavaliers 14.63, Butler 19.75), so any points scored will be well earned.
Emerson came up short against Hasbrouck Heights last Friday, falling 21-7. The defeat was a vexing one since Emerson was expected to win based on their ranking.
Meanwhile, Butler made easy work of Wallington and carried off a 42-14 win. Evan Smith and Joe Conti were among the main playmakers for Butler as the former accumulated 304 passing yards and picked up 52 yards on the ground on 12 carries and the latter rushed for 135 yards and three TDs on 13 carries. Smith has been a consistent playmaker for the Bulldogs as this was the eighth good game in a row from him.
Butler's victory lifted them to 6-2 while Emerson's loss dropped them down to 5-3. We'll see if the Bulldogs can repeat their recent success or if the Cavaliers bounce back and reverse their fortune.
