Someone may have mentioned this already (I haven't had time to read all the pages after the game), but this game was won in two phases. Strength & conditioning and coaching! Haywood just wore out in the second half. I give credit to the weight room and offseason conditioning programs Greeneville has.
Secondly, Greeneville adjusted well. #92 was a beast at fullback!!!! But everything went behind him. If they countered, he came across the line. If the ran a sweep, he went to the outside. If the ran a dive, he was busting up the middle. I get it! Many of a coach will line up and say, here's what I'm running, it's your job to stop it. But if I can figure it out from the stands, Greeneville's coaches will definitely figure it out. Heck, the first time Haywood was forced to punt, #92 was resting n the bench that series. He was a monster!
All in all congrats to the Greene Devils! Four in nine years is pretty amazing feat. Also congrats to Haywood on a great season. You gave Greeneville their toughest challenge, especially for a half. (Yes, even more than AC, haha, I couldn't resist.
I just hate the season is over.
