After starting their season with two straight games on the road, New Brockton is finally coming home. They will look to take advantage of their home-field as they take on the Opp Bobcats at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, both will really light up the scoreboard.
Last Friday, New Brockton was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap as they fell 40-34 to Slocomb. The loss continues a trend for the Gamecocks in their matchups with the Red Tops: they've now lost three in a row.
Meanwhile, everything came up roses for Opp at home against Northview on Friday as the team secured a 34-7 win. Given the Bobcats' advantage in MaxPreps' football rankings in their respective home states (they are ranked 148th in Alabama, while the Chiefs are ranked 392nd in Florida), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Justice Baldwin was nothing short of spectacular: he threw for 225 yards and four touchdowns while completing 72% of his passes.
New Brockton didn't have too much breathing room in their contest against Opp in their previous matchup back in September of 2023, but they still walked away with a 19-14 victory. Does New Brockton have another victory up their sleeve, or will Opp turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
