After two games on the road, Lakewood is heading back home. Their bye week comes to an end as they meet up with Liberty at 7 p.m. ET on Friday. Both teams have allowed few points on average (the Cougars 14.63, Liberty 13), so any points scored will be well earned.
Lakewood simply couldn't be stopped two weeks ago, as they easily beat Burlington-Edison 44-6. Jared Taylor went supernova for the Cougars as he rushed for 131 yards and three TDs on 17 carries. If you haven't heard Taylor's name lately, then you haven't been paying much attention: he has loomed large in Lakewood's past eight games.
A well-balanced attack led Liberty over Blaine every single quarter on their way to victory. Liberty claimed a resounding 57-6 win over Blaine. With the Patriots ahead 43-6 at the half, the game was all but over already.
Their wins bumped the Cougars to 7-1 and the Patriots to 7-2. We'll see which team can carry over their success and which team inevitably falls when the Cougars and Liberty clash.
