Key Player Matchups
QB JJ Leman (GFU) vs. L&C Pass Rush — Leman’s mobility will be tested by a Pios front that dominated UPS at the line of scrimmage.
WR Karsen Denault (GFU) vs. L&C Secondary — Denault’s big-play ability could be key if GFU wants to stretch the field.
QB Dashiell Weaver (L&C) vs. GFU Secondary — Weaver’s dual-threat skill set will challenge a Bruins defense that excelled in Week 1 but hasn’t faced this level of offensive firepower.
RB Jordan Lahusky (L&C) vs. GFU Front Seven — Lahusky’s consistency could open up play-action opportunities.
Special Teams — GFU’s Ben Rembisz is reliable on FGs; L&C’s return units could flip field position.
