At Ford Field - Saturday November 24th at 7:30 PM


Division 3 Finals
Detroit Martin Luther King Crusaders (11-2) 81.778 at Muskegon Big Reds (13-0) 115.556.
The Crusaders are the bigger school 1149 to 1022 for the Big Reds.


The Crusaders have wanted this rematch since week two lost to Muskegon 24-21. They play in Much togher league then Muskegon does. On offense they have scored 473 and allowed 200. They have two shutouts this year. Since 1950 they are 424-208-7 and have been in five Championships games going 3-2 including back to back titles in 2015-16.
In the 1989 title game they lost to Muskegon.


The Big Reds since 1950 are a astounding 497-190-10. If I counted right they are 6-4 in title games. Winning their first five in 1986,89,2004,06,08. Losing in 2012,13,14,16. Then winning again in 2017. On Offense Muskegon has scored 650 and allowed 235 on defense. The Big reds have zero shutouts this year.


Crusaders lost by 3 at Muskegon. So the game must be a Pick-em or maybe Muskegon by a point or two. Game may come to down to who has the ball last. DVR this one.
