If I do recall correctly, South did not send in JV during the North game specifically to give the Varsity a full four quarters in preparation for playoffs; further, I should think it impressive that even with a 48 point bloodbath rout of North's D that the North D is still the #1 Defense in the MLC, holding to 186.1 avg yds per game. This is not to suggest that they can/will hold MHHSE to the same; rather to illustrate that they are a quality defense. And far be it from me to suggest that South performed anything less than admirably and understandably (in retrospect, at least) at the game; but just because a team fails once versus a quality team does not imply that they are a terrible team; rather, that in the face of a high-quality team they performed badly once.
At any rate, Betsy was supposed to "outrun, out-think, outflank, and outlast" North as well, and that didn't go according to plan either. /rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
