Well 94/96 didn’t ask me but

Qb : km : wade May be the difference maker his elusive will have to be displayed full force

Rb: Mack is healthy and it has showed the last couple weeks ! Does crest load up in the and try and take him away and make km win through the air ? Crest has that big bruising linebacker running the ball and he is looking good

Wr: km paysour and Brittain need big games : of crest loads the box to play the run wade is going to throw all over them ! Regardless of what any crest fans think they are susceptible against the passing game

Line play : toss up I think

Line backers : even great linebacker play for both teams and both sets will have to play well

Dbs: crest by a smidgen but Zanders is gonna have to play his best game and do what he can to slow paysour down

Kicking game : crest and it ain’t close

Going to be an excellent ball game against KM pick your poison load the box give up the pass drop into coverage here comes Mack! Crest you know what your gonna get the middle of the defensive front has got to play well or it’s over need that gigantic nose guard and 10 behind him to play well and stop the run and force crest to throw the ball . Crest Qb can throw the hots well across middle to green and crew and throws a pretty long pass but they aren’t a passing team or i better say eddins would rather run it all night !! Crest better be ready for the screen game as well KM is very good at it

At the end of the day there will be numerous snot bubbles ! Crest wants revenge for losing two straight to the Mounties ! Km wants to score 50 if they can! This game boils down to defensive fronts and and turnovers and perhaps a special team play

My final thought

KM -28
Crest 24

Defense wins championships and your huskies only scored one true touchdown, the Crest Offense gave the huskies the other score. If Crest defense plays as hard as they did against the huskies, I’ll take crest all day. Biased or not

good breakdown SL.....in all honesty and I never poor mouth lol (learn that from the GREAT JIM TAYLOR) I think Crest wins this game IF our DBs play well. The KM QB will be hard to handle and I do worry about him extending plays, but if our QB who has tons of potential has a good game and our DBs prevent the explosive plays - I think we win. I know that's a lot of IFs. Both teams are pretty solid with KM's O being better to this point and Crest's D being our strong point. We'll load our HORSES and head that way and see what happens. I do think Crest will play well and I like our chances.

You are correct about defense...I wish the Huss offense was as potent as their defense...defense = A....offense = B...I think both Crest and KM are great teams with Crest certainly being in beast mode as the post season nears...but I also believe that KM being at home will make some big mojo...just my prediction...

I have Crest winning, they’re the more physical team, they are physical with Young Turner at running back, and Kemmerlin brings physicality, too. Defensively, Crest’s front 7 gets after it, and like Shelby and Huss, they have a couple of athletes in the secondary that can slow Paysour. Shelby shut him down. He torched Huss, but they were still able to get key turnovers, and turn them into points. I’m sure they will have Jeter on Paysour with Zanders helping over the top. Crest wins, in my opinion.

Underdog with 17 starters from last year lol.

KM rtn’d a lot of starters as well....but yeah you’re right maybe KM is the underdog. I was hoping XC15 would give us a break down per position group (QB RB WR OL DL LB DB ST coaching team speed)since he’s watched both teams play multiple times. SL did a good job with his break down. It would be interesting to see what others think if they’ve watched both teams play multiple times.

I think both teams have been analyzed pretty well. Crest is better than they were last year and KM is about the same. KM’s weakness is on the backend and their strength is upfront especially on d line. Crest thrives on being able to run up the gut to set up the outside. Crest is better this year upfront on the oline, so this will make for a good matchup. The game could come down to a special team return or turnovers. Both teams are pretty equal.

Crest offense gets it going they have a solid chance to win. Inconsistent, mistake prone bunch shows up and they need KM to really mess it up to win.

I think you're being a little generous giving the Crest offense a B

KM Offense-A
KM Defense-B

Crest Offense-C
Crest Defense-A

QB- KM: He's elusive, and can throw dimes.Extends the play and lets his WR get open. The Crest QB throws a pretty ball and is a battering ram.
RB- KM: Mack looks like he's improved as the year moved on, he's battled through injuries and now looks good.
WR- KM: Paysour all day every day and if Crest doubles him, it opens up the run game for Mack as well as gives space to the other WR's
OL- PUSH: I haven't seen either OL dominate a football game.

DL- Crest: 89 is studly as well as 52. Both create problems. KM has a couple good DL of their own in number 90. Which OL can be successful?
LB- Crest: They fly around to the football. 8 has a motor and can slice through OL's on blitzes.
DB- Crest: This could be the tell of the ball game. Will the Crest secondary be able to bottle up the KM WR's?

ST?

C offense for Crest is interesting.
Crest averages 34 ppg and 357 yards per game.
KM averages 45 ppg and 423 yards.

Replace Weddington and South Point with South Caldwell and Cuthbertson and I am willing to bet the Crest numbers improve. That is not a slight at KM in anyway, but to act if the Crest offense is just average isn't true. You play to your strengths. Crest has 3 RB's that can tote the Rock and a QB that does the same. Crest is not an air it out, throw the ball all over the field team this year.

Crest wins by an average of 22 ppg.
KM wins by an average of 27 ppg.

Also, I did not realize, until someone pointed out to me, that KM has only beaten one team with a winning record this year and that is Cramer. But you play who's in front of you.

This game will be won at the line of scrimmage. Crest needs to get pressure on Wade and bring him down if they get to him. If he is allowed to extend plays then the Crest secondary is in for a long night. Crest has to pound the rock and use the running game to keep the KM offense off the field. String together first downs.

Special teams will play a huge part in this game. Will be interesting to see how KM chooses to kick the ball. They have used a pooch kick this year and it looks like when they kick it deep it goes to between the 10 and 5. Do you let Crest start with pretty good field position or give them a shot at a big return?
Davis for Crest has been very consistent with kicking the ball through the end zone.

KM has the momentum with 2 straight over the Chargers and home field advantage. Crest would like to get a little revenge.

This what Friday nights should be about. 2 excellent teams battling it out in front of a huge crowd.

Looking forward to it.

Both teams bring a certain skill set to the table...Paysour is a beast but I believe KMs Zanders will be able to stop him or slow him down.. I think whoever runs the ball better or QB that can make plays w his feet will win the ball game. another big one for Lloyd, lets see if he can cash in

Another big factor in this game that no one is talking about is Crest's punt return unit. The defense can stop most offenses, but a problem I have seen is our return man lets the ball bounce instead of stepping up to make a fair catch. It has cost us 15-20 yards several times this year, including in the last game against Burns. We can't give up that kind of field position and make it even tougher on our offense when it's as simple as a fair catch.

If you don't trust the man returning it to catch it cleanly then replace him with someone that can. If he's being told to catch it but isn't then replace him with someone in who isn't scared. If the coaching staff is telling him to just let it bounce then that is about as dumb of a decision as I have ever seen. Either way this has to be fixed.

My butt hole draws up harder than a Shelby native does driving through Casar after dark every time I watch one of those kids try and catch a punt.

pretty much on point RS ...however imo I think Crest OL is better and like Smash said don't sleep on the Crest offense, it has been inconsistent at times, but our OL is solid with some really good RBs and WRs and a gifted QB. I really think Crest is going to play well offensively. Lots of folks are still frowning because of the HH game, we moved the ball, just had untimely mistakes and penalties that cost us a chance to win, I don't see that happening Friday. I think Crest DL is going to give KM OL fits. I just hope our DBs play well....as you said that's a huge key in this game.

Tell me about untimely turnovers and penalties KM had 4 turnovers each against SHELBY AND HUNTER HUSS AND GAVE BOTH TEAMS EASY TOUCH DOWNS along with penalties that stops drives. but that part of the game you have to cut out to beat a good team. KM had about 100 yards more offensive in each of those games.

I've seen both teams play and both have their strengths. The thing the donkeys have to stop at all cost is the QB running around and extending plays. DB's can only cover for so long, if you let him run around he'll find an open receiver. The QB is very quick and hard to hem up. If them donkeys can then they win if they don't then they lose. Not hating on either team just keeping it real.

A difference maker in the game could be if the 8th grader from Burns is allowed to play tomorrow night.

Penalties could also be huge. One of the times I saw Crest they were flagged unmercifully on that OL

After reading all the unbiased critiques from CREST and some SHELBY POSTERS about the game Friday night, I would recommend the KM coaches FORFEIT THE GAME to keep from being humiliated by the UNBEATABLE MIGHTY CREST CHARGERS.

I don’t know what the hell a FORFIED is, but if it helps keep KM from being humiliated, then go for it.

KM 75
Crest 7

Wade throws for 400. Mack rushes for 200. The concession stand on the Crest side serves off brand cola and isn't willing to make change. The bus carrying the Crest band gets a flat tire on the way. Crest91 stops at Ingle's to get some Starbucks and forgets he was going to the game. 9496 falls into a vortex that takes him into another dimension where he is a big Shelby and Philly Eagles fan. It rains, but only to the track on the Crest side.

Now there you go Mountie pride. A breakdown of the game for you.
