I don't know what the perfect optimistic opinion would be on the current state of the season. As we've seen, many of us have some different and some similar opinions. The meltdown we saw last Friday night was reminiscent of the meltdown against McMinn Co. last November. Sadly, both came on our own turf, literally.
Although this week’s date with Daniel Boone somewhat worries me, as the Trailblazers are playing well of late, especially on defense, I feel this team is still struggling to find out what works on offense. I don’t feel the defense needs to be tweaked much. Though not an elite defense, Watson still has them playing on an above average level. Sadly they’ve spent too much time on the field in most games, as many players play both ways.
Keep the mistakes to a minimum on offense, limit turnovers, and employ a smart game plan and I feel this offense can be successful. I trust the coaches and players will execute this week, and in weeks to come. Friday night, the stuff simply hit the fan and coated everybody on the home side. Let’s hope the stink doesn’t linger in weeks to come. The Indians go into the bye week 2-3 (2-0).
Daniel Boone – 14
Dobyns Bennett – 28
Remember, we just have to finish with a better conference record than Science Hill to make the playoffs. If we finish with the same conference record, we must win the head to head. I'm to the point where I don't care how we get to the post-season, as long as we get there. I think many of you would agree.
