The Panthers can win with long sustained drives and winning the field position battle. The problem is Freedom is likely to score fast and place them in the position of having to throw the ball to stay competitive. Freedom 30 Ponax 14 (and I hope I'm wrong!)
I love a great underdog story. I don't have a rooting interest here other than being a VA HS football fan. I was at the Ponax / Louisa game. I saw next level contact out there. My score prediction is based on like opponents and thinking that Louisa makes a deep run this season. But that's why...
I saw the 'Miracle in Mineral' live last year. Any team that can put the ball in the air with success is dangerous. My gut tells me Louisa is not gonna let it come close to that being a possibility. If KG can manage to stick around late in the 3rd I wouldn't be surprised if the Foxes come up...
My biggest concern for Northumberland is coming down with the 50/50 ball. The receivers have been able to out-athlete the competition in those situations so far this year. Adams has been able to extend plays and the receivers do a great job working to stay alive downfield. Sometimes when you...
I don't know the talent level/roster depth of the other teams to predict any score. I do know all you need is a solid QB and a couple of playmakers to put points on the board. The most difficult task in HS football is to defend a reliable passing attack and a QB that is a threat to run the ball...
A lot of Ls in there. Wanna provide some score predictions? Agree that they have work to do and starting off with a 'soft' schedule will go a long way in helping them figure things out with a young defense. But when one of the best players in the district touches the ball every down on O...
Adams is putting up ridiculous numbers and the guys on O look like they are having fun. Keep focusing on the little things (and some not so little things) and they will be a more complete team down the stretch. Until then ride the offense and make your opponents have to play out of character.
some players displaced by transfers are finding the field and making a difference at new schools. Some even had more success after choosing to move rather than ride the pine. Only have one shot at playing HS football. Make the most of it. Whether that's transferring to chase a title or to find...
I'd bet any of the players on the list would choose wins over accolades / opinion awards. What I saw is the LB from Louisa has the highest ceiling and projects to be able to handle the competition at the D1 level. At the same time I wouldn't be surprised at all to see someone on the list...
Awesome thread. I went from knowing nothing about LT to now I at least have insight to ponder during the game. Appreciate y'all taking the time. Great info.
