Lakeland (5-2 overall, 3-0 NACC) enters the game after a 47-40 double-overtime victory over Aurora last week to remain undefeated in the NACC. The Muskies overcame five first-half turnovers and six turnovers in the game, coming back from a 20-7 second quarter deficit to win. Michael Whitley (So.-Vidalia, La.) piled up huge numbers once again, completing 28 of 45 passes for 363 yards and three touchdown passes while also rushing 26 times for 84 yards and four touchdowns. Michael Esiobu (Sr.-Chicago, Ill.) caught eight passes for 141 yards and a score and Smith added two more touchdown catches. The defense also came up with stops in both overtime periods as the Muskies won their fourth straight game.

Concordia (3-4 overall, 3-1 NACC) continued to stay close behind league-leading Lakeland and Benedictine in the NACC standings with a 15-7 win on the road at Rockford last week. Aaron Nixon completed 27 of 40 passes for 257 yards and a pair of touchdowns and Concordia's defense held the Regents to 233 yards of offense in the low-scoring game. Like the Muskies last week, Concordia won despite being well on the wrong side of the turnovers battle-the Falcons were minus-four with two interceptions and two lost fumbles against Rockford.
