Preview of Nemaha Central FB Game

 It's been a tough start to the season for the Bulldawgs. Week 1 started with an OT loss to Silver Lake. Last week, they lost 24-19 to St. Marys in their home opener. Quarterback Tayson Horak threw for 143 yards and rushed for 40 against the Bears. Running the ball has been Rossville's bread and butter through the first two weeks, but deep throws against Nemaha Central may be needed to upset the Thunder on the road.

After a disappointing Week 1 loss, Nemaha Central earned their first win by taking down Silver Lake 35-7. The run first offense could not be stopped by the Eagles. Carter Hajek, a junior, rushed for 183 yards on 32 carries and three touchdowns in the win. He also threw for 147 yards on 5-for-8 passing along with two touchdowns. The Bulldawgs struggled to stop the rushing attack of St. Marys last week as they allowed 200 yards on the ground. Expect Nemaha Central to focus their efforts at winning the line of scrimmage and running the ball all evening. Nemaha Central 28, Rossville 13
