The Oak Forest Bengals will square off against the Sandburg Eagles at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Given that both suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this matchup.
Oak Forest can't be to happy about their upcoming road contest considering what happened when they opened their season on the away from home on Friday. They took a 21-15 hit to the loss column at the hands of Marmion. The Bengals' defeat continues a trend for the squad, making it four in a row dating back to last season.
Meanwhile, Sandburg came up short against St. Rita on Friday and fell 27-17. While losing is never fun, the Eagles can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Illinois football rankings (they are ranked 91st, while the Mustangs are ranked 12th).
Things could have been worse for Oak Forest, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 26-11 loss to Sandburg in their previous matchup back in September of 2023. Can Oak Forest avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
