| Oct 12, vs Brownsburg, 8-0 @ FHS 7pm |
The 2012 Hoosier Crossroads Conference champion comes to Fishers for the final regular season. These teams have squared off in some heated battles over the years and the Brownsburg Bulldogs would like to definitely rub the Tigers' noses in the fact they are champs and potentially undefeated.
Brownsburg has been able to put up 34 points per game and brings the leading defense in the conference only giving up 10 points per game. The offense has been a combination of grind it out running and big plays that have sunk HCC opponents. Senior IU commit, Chase Dutra is the leader of this team that has made big plays and freshman RB Toks Akinribade will run it down the middle regularly. Dutra has rushed 58 times for 356 yards and 2 TDs while catching 15 for 351 yards and 3 TDs. Akinribade has rushed 142 times for 668 yards and 11 TDs and Tigers will need to hit him early, low and wrap him. Senior QB Ian Good is well balanced passing for 62% completion percentage and 819 yards and 7 TDs while also running 49 times for 225 yards for 4 TDs.
The Brownsburg stats alone don't tell the story of the physical play that moves them down the field. While widely revered as a flashy, big play team, it is the punch and dive play that has elevated Brownsburg.
When Brownsburg gives the ball back to opponents, their defense has gotten it back quickly and, on the punt return, Dutra poses the real threat in any game against Brownsburg -- the big play. Dutra is not someone that you want getting the ball with a chance to run.
Tigers need a good win and stopping Brownsburg's quest for an undefeated season would do that for sure.
