EB has def come to play and should be the team to beat in this conference other than the usual Hibriten monopoly

Thoughts on the game - East Burke runs their offense like a well oiled machine , very few mistakes - Their O line is pretty solid. They have some good runs inside and outside - They didn’t try a pass , They had their way with Patton all night long on their line ... Defense is stout and only gave up 6 on a nice outside run by Patton but that’s it and Patton run game not bad but just they got beat off the line and Patton QB had a decent arm but Patton not a passing team as they run a similar run first offense. Patton did Throw a INT just before half

Patton biggest issue was penalties and missed tackles:Assignments on the line , offense had few big play called back on penalties and so did their defense - Patton Couldn’t stop the ground attack of EB!

Great job by EB!!!

First time starting out at 3-0 since 2009!!!
