Seems like the GOTW in the CCL. Both only have a loss to MC. Both have been impressive. Rita seems a bit stronger than expected. I’m thinking the Mustangs have the slight edge at home. Thoughts?
Naz @ Rita
- Thread starter pjjp
- Start date
I think Rita has to be favored in this one. Naz has not proven itself against the traditional Blue Teams like MC and Rita.
I'm not sure how well Rita's pass defense matches up with Naz's offense. I think they have a great run defense. On the flip side Rita can run the ball so Naz will need to be solid on the defensive side of the ball especially against the run. I would feel a bit better if this game were in LGP but should be a fun one no doubt

After Cascia picked me up through the transfer portal I immediately circled this one! It should be a fantastic game between two great programs!
Naz-Rita sounds like a refreshing cocktail with tequila and blue curacao.
PJJP,
Nice thread. I think you should do a weekly "Game of the Week" thread like this for the CCL/ESCC Conference.
It's going to be a very good and close game. Curious to see how Nazareth rebounds from a tough game against JCA, whereas Rita played a weaker ND opponent. Since the upset at Brother Rice, Rita has been on a roll.
Overall, Rita did a nice job against talented St. Francis, but Nazareth is a different offensive beast, imo. If Rita's defense can hold the Roadrunners to what JCA did, then the Mustangs have an excellent chance.

Fast paced temp would favor Naz. Back in the alley fistfight, I'm going with Rita. I don't think Naz will be able to stop Rita's run game...
Either Rita or MS has to play on Saturdays, so Mustang can have the privilege of working with such a professional like you.
The guy I noticed most in the run game against JCA was LB Kaminski. He has size (6’3 235 lbs. ) and athleticism. Made a ton of tackles against the Hilltopper run game. No surprise there. He’s a 4-year starter and committed to Stanford.
I think there might be a few more people logging in to check out this game...
My experience if I go to the game is person the camera works perfectly. If I try to watch the game online the camera experiences catastrophic failure!
Defensive player of the year for the Green will be decided in this game. JBuck or Kaminski
with a couple more wildcat TDs, ill put my money on Buck to win the Lawless Award for the green. That would almost guarantee it, I believe he can win outright with his defensive output alone the rest of the way.
Is this kid on the basketball team? I remember Naz having a kid that looked like a monster. I was gonna offer him a schollie to The Beloved.
Since the linebackers are equally talented, the game will come down to the quarterbacks, giving the edge to Naz.

Yes. I have been impressed this year with him since the red and white game this year. Throws it well, good size, good feet to avoid pressure and athletic enough to tuck and run.
Not all heroes wear capes
As if this game couldn’t get any bigger, mma drops this into the kitty

No surprise. Traditionally Rita struggles vs passing teams
