Am I the only one to pick Unaka and Cascade as victorious in the first round?

At the beginning of the year, I was concerned about our defense.  But as the year has gone, regardless of the teams we are playing, I can see we have gotten better each week.  You can just see they are playing their responsibilities way more consistent than we were at in the first few weeks. 

The good news is, we only have 6 seniors on this years team. 

Depending on which positions those 6 play, I would suspect you guys will be the favorite to win it next year then, if not this year too of course.  

I’ve met Commander and he’s a good one, a coacht friend for life.  Sorry bud, I’ve met Croz too and well, his Tigers are the team to beat in the East.  We’ve been saying it all year.  

Am I the only person that think Cloudland will probably be hosting the semis in the East vs SP/Gordy winner.  

CLASS 1A

You didn't answer #2. Has COVID derailed the supply of ammo for the cannon?

I don’t know the answer to that so I didn’t reply.

Someone needs to ask the South Pitt coaches what they want the score of this game to be. Because that is exactly what it will be. RBS with all due respect, will not provide any resistance on defense. It will not be pretty. The Pirates need to accomplish two things in this game.

1. Keep everyone healthy for when Clay County rolls in (assuming they beat Sale Creek)

2. Ration the ammunition for that dang cannon so they don't run out during the game. COVID has wreaked havoc on the supply chains and I am sure it can't be easy to get new ammo shipped in at the moment.

You said it best in the #1 above.  No need to pad stats at this point.  It’s all about winning and keeping everyone healthy for the next game as they get harder and harder.  If we go up 35-0 in the first quarter or even 2nd quarter, then I hope Stone and Grider start subbing earlier than the 3rd.  If all goes as expected, our JV guys will match that score even with a running clock in the 2nd half.

Geno most likely got his info from the program that needs to be updated.

3 interceptions is the Pirate Record for 1 Game. It was tied last night

I can’t read the article but here it is.  Playoffs.  You must have been told regular season only.

Maybe regular season but it can’t be.  I remember Fitzgerald had more than 3 in one game.  It might have been a playoff game.  I’m 99.9999999% positive.

Ok it's 42-0 3rd. Hope our coaches do something smart like get your starter's out of the game. Good gracious.  We're playing a weak team. A injury for us would be huge going into the playoffs. 

Gio is the only one who needs reps.  Everyone else can come off

4 ints in first half we've had may be a record for SP defense. CB QB not much time to throw and just throwing it wildly. 

 

 

 

Remember, Corbin Fitzgerald had like 5 INT’s by himself one year in the playoffs.  I can’t remember who it was against though.  Seems like it was against Clay Co or maybe Columbia Academy?

I’m not sure Meigs can handle all the speed that Jasper has.  They are really gelling with their line right now.  I may be at this game if able.  I look for Jasper to have 300 yards rushing, and win by 2 TD’s.  Meigs won’t be able to run the QB all night long.  They will have to pass and mix it up.

Rlh I garuntee that other Hunter boy should have been grider passer last year and lined that Sanders boy up at pass catcher.  Im not joking either.

I agree.

This stone man and little grider man better win this game so our boys can finish first in the district and get to play at home for the playoffs.  Let me ask you a question.  Did that little grider man make that stone man start making that Hunter boy run over to the sideline to get the play last night like Grider used to.  That is real dumb.  He is going to get tired.  Grider used to make his passer do that all the time and he would be real tired.  You think im joking but im not.

Maybe we implemented new plays and the only signals they thought of to use from the sideline didn’t come out too well…

I wondered the same thing, anyone have an explanation?

At the first of the year the roster had his last name as Tipton.  It was changed in the later rosters.  The pressbox may still have the old one.  

We can’t run off tackle or bounce outside on them unless it’s the jet sweep with RaCash.  We were gashing 3-4 yards at a time straight up the gut.  Either way I’m proud.  These boys came out to win.  DeAndre Kelly is about 2 steps faster than the GA commit from Oakland, and I applaud him for not giving up on the long runs.  I also think RaCash is smooth as butter and they overestimate his ability. Keep giving it to him!  Keep throwing to Hunter!  DeDe is playing his heart out.  Please please someone see him on film and recruit him.  I’d like to see us continue to move the ball some and give ourselves a chance to score again.  Way to go Pirates!  

Nah the storms are almost over.  Ending right at game time, if not already.  Go Pirates.  We just need to do what we do and get better every game.  The playoffs are gonna be tough this year but we got the ability to “weather the storm”.

Jasper may struggle for a half but they will break it open in the 2nd half.  
 

J - 38

SM - 10

I wouldn’t have dropped Fayetteville that far after losing to a decent 4A team.  At most 3 or 4.  

Who did Westview lose to?  I can’t remember.

What kind of mess is this? I ain't from Jasper. I live on the dang mountain. Don't get on here a hoopin and hollerin when we win Friday. Our boys can compete and will beat Oakland by 3 scores.

Daggummit boy I done seen more Pirate football than you will ever see. 1st play was a sack. Stopped them on a fake punt and 1st play on offense was a TD from Hunter to Hunter. 

Sit down and let the adults talk.

I ain't jokin either 

Anyone can get that info, especially NFHS. 

From what I seen RB’s line both offensively and defensively was having their way with City’s line.  Plus RB wanted it more it appeared.   It wouldn’t have mattered if KJ played.  This kind of loss may just fire them up so beware West teams.  

Time to call off the dawgs

Somebody at the game see what just happened to the Ref that was down?
