Pirates go to the air to beat Crestview 28-20

THE COMPLETE GAME STATS ARE AN ATTACHMENT TO THIS STORY.

On paper you'd like Crestview won the game: they had the ball 7 minutes longer than the Pirates, they had 62 offensive plays to Bluffton's 39, they had more first downs and more total offense.

Yet the scoreboard belonged to Bluffton. Traveling to Crestview on Sept. 17 for an NWC contest, Bluffton came home the winner 28-20. The win raises the Pirates to 2-2 overall and 1-1 in the NWC.
