Braves preparation hinges on two game plans against Bethel
Ottawa coach Kessinger plans for Bethel to open with either the spread or a conventional offense as Bethel upgrades to a new quarterback. Bethel returns 16 defensive players while Ottawa spreads the ball to multiple receivers after Ethan Haller threw for 437 yards in the opener. Ottawa also emphasizes reading defenses for coach input and seeks better run blocking while aiming to exploit matchups on the field.
