The Husiers secured a 29:23 victory over the Wildcats in their regular-season matchup on September 26th, 2026. And here's the thing — the margin was narrower than either side might have expected going in. Both teams came into the fixture with strong recent form, though the Husiers had been particularly dominant in their previous outings.
The hosts' recent run included a 38:0 whitewash of the Hiltons, a 55:0 demolition of the Bisons, and a 52:16 win against Min Green. To be fair, the Wildcats were hardly slacking either, having put 41 past Buffalo and followed it with a 34:18 victory over the Jackrabbits. By then, expectations were naturally high for an entertaining contest.
What materialised was a game decided in the final moments rather than one dominated by one side from the outset. The Husiers managed to hold on for a six-point victory, extending their unbeaten run while the Wildcats fell just short of continuing their winning momentum.
The result shifts the landscape slightly for both franchises, with the Husiers adding another layer to their impressive recent performances. The Wildcats will be disappointed to have lost ground after back-to-back wins, but the close scoreline suggests they remain competitive.
