4-2 NW, Mauldin and Northwestern games are usually scrappy with a lot of physical play by both defenses, but Mauldin usaully gets one or two. NW defense will be key, if they can handle the speed of Mauldin they will have no problem
If Mauldin has an edge in one thing it is probably being more physical. Maybe they will use it to their advantage. And Mauldin does have a very fast forward that could slip by.
