The Stone and Red Bank score was a bit deceiving. Stone was having success moving the ball down field against the Lions. Stone had five turnovers in that game. You can’t have that and expect to stay in the game.
Therefore, leading to my point, if MC can protect the ball and stop the big plays like we did against Chattanooga Central in the second half, I think this game stays close till the end.
I’m very curious to see how MC plays against the adversity by having to make the 2 and a half hour road trip. Either way the game goes, it’s always a good year by having a winning season and getting a playoff win. As far as I can remember, the only teams to win in the playoffs for MC was the 03’ team, 16’ team, and this years team. I want to say maybe one of those teams in the 60s and 70s did but I can’t remember.
