The South Bend Washington Panthers will challenge the New Albany Bulldogs at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday. Given that both suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this matchup.
South Bend Washington couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They took a 28-24 hit to the loss column at the hands of Hammond Central. The defeat continues a trend for the Panthers in their matchups with the Wolves: they've now lost three in a row.
Meanwhile, New Albany was not able to break out of their rough patch on Friday as the team picked up their fourth straight loss. They were outmatched by Franklin Community at home and fell 47-6. While losing is never fun, the Bulldogs can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Indiana football rankings (they are ranked 205th, while the Grizzly Cubs are ranked 87th).
