Skinny: The visiting Buffalo is coming off a big 47-0 home win last week over Eustis to keep them undefeated. Now they have to hit the road to face the Celtics, giving the Buffalo their first test away from the confines of The Range. Last week five different Buffalo players including running backs Corey Goldwire (2021), Malachi Davis (2021), receiver Que Kennedy who scored via rushing (2024), Joshua Marion (2021), and running back Ed Williams (2022) who had two touchdowns. Marion also had 80 yards on punt returns including a return for a touchdown giving him two total touchdowns in the game. For the Celtics, they are coming off a 38-7 road victory over Gainesville. Last week Jamarian Samuel (2021) had 22 carries for 145 yards rushing and three touchdowns on the ground, plus he had a 24-yard touchdown pass on a flea-flicker in the win. Defensively, the Celtics defense held Gainesville to minus-five yards rushing while collecting three interceptions, one resulting in a pick-six and only gave up 40 total yards of offense against Gainesville.
