Saturday's contest might be decided on the ground. Flagler has been unstoppable on the ground this season, having averaged 196.8 rushing yards per game. However, it's not like Bethune struggles in that department as they've been averaging 219 rushing yards. There's a good chance Saturday's matchup turns into a tough fight on the ground.
Flagler took their win against Bethune when the teams last played back in September of 2024 by a conclusive 42-19 score. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Panthers since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
