The Cannon County Lions football team hasn’t scored more than 13 points this season. Their opponent in Livingston hasn’t allowed more than 13 points in the 5 wins they’ve collected so far. The Lions average giving up 32 points per game. Livingston averages scoring 35 points per contest. Just those numbers alone doesn’t fare well for a Cannon County victory tonight. Add on top of that it’s Livingston’s homecoming and the Lions will have to find a way to slow down the Wildcats who average 350 yards a contest. The Lions offense has gained 230 yards per game in the last two games, however costly penalties and turnovers have cost the Lions a chance to stay in striking distance in a few games this season. The trip to Hogeye will be a difficult one for the Lions who are 0-6 while Livingston is 5-1.
