North playing some good ball right now. I wouldn't be surprised to see them take the number 2 slot in the MLC. Congrats Raiders!

Haha...easy sonny, heal your wounds before you start planning your next beatdown. But you are right, North and East should watch out for JC, because JC learned a few things about destroying people tonight. /hungry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":hungry:" border="0" alt="hungry.gif" />

I put money on it that South puts up 50 on both east and north. South will be playing Maryville this year.

Its a good thing you don't put your money were your mouth is because you would be broke.

Let's do some analysis.

 

Johnson County

QB - Phipps

RB - Prudhomme

 

Sullivan East

QB - Gaby

RB - Looney

 

I will not try to say which QB/RB combination is better, so I will say it's a push, that they are even. I was at the North and East game. North played ball control on offense and grinded out 6 or 7 yards per rush most of the evening, keeping the clock running. On defense the Raiders swarmed to the ball, Looney did little between the tackles. Gaby found space while scrambling from time to time, but went out for a few plays after getting smashed in the mouth by the North secondary, he didn't run the same after that. After East's intital score on a fade route through good North coverage, the East passing game was non effective, holding the Patriots to 4 of 12 passing (33%) for 61 yards, and 27 rushes for 55 yards, for 116 yards total offense. North forced 3 fumbles and collected 2 of them for 2 turnovers. Don't sleep on the Raiders secondary, they are pretty good. Overall a good night for the Raider defense and the Raiders as a whole. If the same occurs in the North @ Johnson Co. game then it should be a low scoring affair, I don't see North scoring 36 points against the Longhorns, but unless you can stop the run enough to make them do other things, it could be a long night.

 

Sullivan North @ Johnson County should be another great game to watch for those following these teams. It will not be a blowout as you alude too. Expect this North team to be a typical Bloomingdale bunch, smashmouth on defense and run-oriented on offense.
