Bruce had them ready. The offensive game plan was perfect. Father Ryan won the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball tonight. He and the other coaches have the boys believing they can beat teams like BA. Bruce deserves some credit tonight.

Just a dominating first half for Father Ryan. BA certainly has the horses to come back though.

Father Ryan stuck it to BGA tonight. Bruce called out his defense this week and they held BGA to less than 200 yards of offense and forced several turnovers. I'll say it again - this team looks different than the Ryan teams the last few years. Whether Bruce gets the credit or his coaches or the seniors, it doesn't really matter. They look better.

I think anyone who watched Father Ryan Friday night would tell you that was a different team than we have seen the past couple of years. The offense opened things up and threw for three touchdowns. The defense played pretty well except for a couple big plays. The Father Ran kids fought hard the whole time. The difference in the game was Overton had a couple D1 athletes running the ball and Father Ryan doesn't have any. Say what you want but that game told me they are headed in the right direction.

I have no idea if Coach Lussier is on the hot seat but as a Father Ryan football parent I want to make a couple of points. Coach Lussier always seems to field a pretty good defense. We have gone from the spread to the triple option overnight. It is taking the boys awhile to adapt and we need to be patient while that happens.
