HALDEMAN, Ky. (Interstat) — A pivotal Pioneer Football League matchup is on tap Saturday as the Butler Bulldogs visit the Morehead State Eagles at Jayne Stadium.

In that game, quarterback Reagan Andrew accounted for two touchdowns, passing for 191 yards and a score while adding another on the ground.

The Eagles, meanwhile, are riding momentum from a 28-24 victory over Davidson. Quarterback Carter Cravens threw for 278 yards and a touchdown in the win, while linebacker Isaac Stopke had a remarkable two-way performance, rushing for 115 yards and a score on 15 carries.

Butler has shown resilience this season, winning three of its last five games. Morehead State has been inconsistent but is 3-2 in its last five outings, with both losses coming by a single touchdown.

According to Interstat’s game simulator, this contest is projected to be a high-scoring affair, with Butler edging Morehead State 39-38. The outcome will have significant implications for the final PFL standings as the regular season winds down.
