75 days to kickoff of the 2020 High School Football season for the Navarre Raiders as they will travel to Gulf Breeze on 21 Aug 2020.
 
75 games ago – Davidson (AL) 24, Navarre 21 (2013)
 
After a steady rain fell in the Panhandle most of the day; the skies cleared as the Raiders (5-4, 2-0) traveled to Mobile for the first time to play the Warriors at Ladd Peebles Stadium. Also, was the first time since the 2001 season that they faced off against an opponent outside the State of Florida.
 
Navarre was 2-1 against Alabama teams in the past; a 54-0 win over Gulf Shores in 2000; a 28-13 loss to Charles Henderson to open the 2001 season and a 41-7 win over Gulf Shores to end that same year.
 
The next time the Raiders would play a team from Alabama would be in 2014, when they defeated Dothan 49-24 at home. Navarre then traveled to Dothan to kick start the 2015 season. After numerous lightning/weather delays, the Raiders prevailed 43-22.
