Two dominant signal callers in Camben Emanuel and Jacques Brown are getting ready to go toe-to-toe. The Madison Marlins will head out on the road to face off against the Sterling Raiders at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Madison is looking to tack on another W to their three-game streak on the road.
After soaring to 55 points the game before, Madison were a bit more limited in their game two weeks ago. They fell to Wisdom 14-8.
Meanwhile, Sterling had already won five in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 46.4 points), and they went ahead and made it six on Saturday. They claimed a resounding 34-6 win over Wisdom on the road. The result was nothing new for Sterling, who have now won six matchups by 28 points or more so far this season.
Sterling relied on the efforts of Elijah Jackson, who rushed for 94 yards on only seven carries, and Brown, who rushed for 109 yards on only nine carries.
Wisdom's victory bumped their season record to 7-2 while Madison's loss dropped theirs to 5-4.
Madison suffered a grim 27-7 defeat to Sterling in their previous meeting back in November of 2022. Can Madison avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
