Baldwin is hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 30.22 points per game. Their bye week comes to an end as they meet up with Cross Creek at 7:30 p.m. ET on Friday. Baldwin has the odds in their favor, so they'll need to guard against complacency.
The Braves were able to grind out a solid victory over Burke County two weeks ago, winning 44-30.
Meanwhile, Cross Creek was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap last Friday as they fell 20-14 to Academy of Richmond County. A silver lining for Cross Creek was the play of Davyion Simms, who caught six passes for 97 yards and one TD. Simms didn't help his team much against Thomson, so this was a nice turnaround for him. Simms ended up with 37 passing yards, more than he has had in any other game this season.
Cross Creek's defense was a presence as well, and it made life painful for the quarterback and got past Academy of Richmond County's offensive line for a total of five sacks. Leading the way was Kamareon Davis and his three sacks.
Baldwin took their contest against Cross Creek when the two teams last met in November of last year by a conclusive 31-0 score. Will the Braves repeat their success, or do the Razorbacks have a better game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
