At first glance, this would appear to be a game featuring two running offenses, but Bradley has been effective in its passing game with Horn behind center in its spread-option offense. In three games, Horn has completed 23 of 38 passes for 437 yards and two touchdowns. Horn and Martin lead the Jaguars' ground game.

Wilson, a Georgia Tech recruit, leads Jerome's double-wing spread attack with 377 yards rushing and six touchdowns on 74 carries.

•LAST WEEK — Bradley had little trouble with Westland, as Horn went 8-for-14 passing for 222 yards and one touchdown and ran for 63 yards and one score.

The Jaguars had 10 plays of 15 yards or more, including touchdown runs of 59 and 22 yards by Bryant and a 50-yard touchdown reception by Popovec. T.J. Martin led Bradley in rushing with 86 yards and two touchdowns on 15 carries. Reilly Butz had 118 total yards, including a 46-yard kickoff return to begin the second half and a 46-yard reception.
