This rematch of last year’s second round game – when the three-time defending state champion Bulls beat the Patriots, 23-20.
Many who have followed these programs this season believe that we are in store for a defensive effort – as both teams are loaded with Power 5 prospects and football talent that will be making an impact for years to come
