Statistical Breakdown
Mifflinburg dominates in yardage and scoring efficiency, averaging 47 points per game compared to Danville’s 10. The Mustangs’ rushing game alone (234 yards per contest) far outpaces Danville’s ground attack, and Mifflinburg’s balanced attack allows them to control the clock and dictate the pace.

Outlook
This game will test whether Mifflinburg can maintain its dominance or if Danville can bounce back and claim its first victory. With the Mustangs’ explosive offense and stout defense, Mifflinburg enters as the clear favorite, but Danville’s leaders like Raup and Hagerman could make this a competitive contest if the team finds its rhythm.

Kickoff is set for this week at Mifflinburg’s home field. Fans can expect a fast-paced, high-energy matchup as both teams look to set the tone for their seasons.
