The matchup between South Lyon East and Mott on Friday hardly resembled the 20-7 effort from their previous meeting. The Cougars received a blow as they fell 38-24 to the Corsairs. The Cougars were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Corsairs apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in September of 2024.
Geno Seets had another great game (as he tends to do), throwing for 279 yards and three touchdowns on only 17 passes, while also punching in one TD on the ground for Mott. Seets' passing game has become a key predictor of the Corsairs' success: the team is undefeated when his passer rating is 100 or higher, but only 1-2 otherwise.
