Mt. Pleasant and Keokuk are an even 4-4 against one another since September of 2015, but not for long. The Panthers will head out on the road to square off against the Chiefs at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Keokuk took a loss in their last game and will be looking to turn the tables on Mt. Pleasant, who comes in off a win.
Mt. Pleasant barely beat Fort Madison the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Panthers blew past the Bloodhounds, posting a 61-0 victory. That looming 61-0 mark stands out as the most commanding margin for the Panthers yet this season.
Meanwhile, after soaring to 55 points the game before, Keokuk was a bit more limited in their matchup on Friday. They had to suffer through a 58-6 loss at the hands of Solon. While losing is never fun, the Chiefs can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Iowa football rankings (they are ranked 164th, while the Spartans are ranked 15th).
Mt. Pleasant pushed their record up to 5-1 with the win, which was their fourth straight on the road dating back to last season. Those road victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 38.3 points over those games. As for Keokuk, their loss dropped their record down to 3-3.
Mt. Pleasant was able to grind out a solid win over Keokuk when the teams last played back in October of 2024, winning 34-27. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Panthers since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
