Region 5 vs Region 6 (1A matchups)

[MOTO24]

I don't know what the paper said but Jo Byrns funbled at least 4 times also. It was a game of hot potato a lot of the night. I don't want it you take it. On 4 consecutive plays one team fumbled to the other team. Then there were at least 4 more in the contest along with 2 or 3 interceptions. Other than that the teams seemed to be fairly well matched. They are both strong teams and will be a handful in the playoffs. I don't know if anyone in region 6 can play with these 2 teams.

 

I will say I was sorley dissapointed in the fan support from JB on Friday night. I expected an overflow crowd from them. I guess that Halloween may have kept several around Cedar Hill.

 

 

Yeah I was one of the ones who didn't come out. /sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> Had trick or treat duties. I think some of y'all are sandbagging over there in region 6. I know both regions had a drop off this year but you think region 6 had a bigger one? I'm not buying it and neither are the Devils.

I expect to see two good matchups Friday and two blow outs. We'll see how it turns out.

My Picks: (I hate doing this because I know nothing about region 6)

*I am going to do it this way, because like the last 3 weeks I have been right on my picks lol*

 

So:

Cascade--in a big way. Offense is VERY good.

 

JB-- Defense is VERY good.

 

MTCS--Cause I don't pick against them. Haven't all year and won't long as we keep playing.

 

and McEwen--Look at what they did to us. I was quite impressed. Beat us worse than anyone else. Gotta say there is a reason behind that.

 

**So yes, I am biased by picking all Region 5 teams. But, honestly this season Region 5 probably had 5 and at times 6 teams that could be playoff worthy. I may be wrong come Friday night around 10pm...but until then I will support the Region I know. LOL Go 5!!!**

can someone who has them post honest to god facts not opinions , as to why mtcs can beat wayne county i am just curious as i know nothing about them at all ?

 

what kind of defense does mtcs run scheme wise ?

 

wayne county on offense will line up in just about everything you can think of, i, power i, veer, spread, offset i , they will even throw some option football at you they will throw and run from any of these formations

 

and if depth is a problem for mtcs then wc should be able to wear them down , and if mtcs has trouble stoping the run then they will have a long night because wc will eat you up with play action passes

Because they have an excellant coach that has them ready to play every week. This team doesn't make many mistakes that you can make them pay for they are very opportunistic. The players have bought into the program and work extremely hard and they are smart. They may lack depth but they are battle tested to last four quarters of football. They have given nearly everyone fits this year with the exception of one game and lets face it everyone has them occasionally. If you let them hang around until the fourth quarter they are very good.

maybe we should just let the 2 coaches go to mid field and arm wrestle for it then.

[catsfan01]

that wouldnt work out well for mtcs

Well that would be different. How about they arm wrestle instead of a coin toss.

maybe, or maybe the coin toss should be best 2 out of 3, just ya know so its fair /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" />

I don't know I still like the whole arm wrestling thing. That might even get some news coverage for a poor 1A school.

Reasons why MTCS can beat Wayne County:

 

- The don't/rarely turn the ball over. Bartilson has thrown 4 picks. Wade has fumbled some punts, but I dont think he has fumbled a run (and that is 230+). Compton fumbled 2 in the McEwen game (i think we had 4 that night).

 

- Bartilson can manage the game. He has done a fantastic job at giving the Cougars exactly what they need, especially since the McEwen game. Whether it is CA where he threw for 200 yds, and a touchdown. WHH where he threw 2 TD, or Forrest where he came up with big third down completions all night. He has done excellent job maturing as the season has gone on.

 

- Dillon Wade is a hoss. He may not be the prettiest, toughest, fastest, or strongest runner in the region, but he gets his. Over 230 carries, and 1200 yards almost. He just continues to carry the rock over and over. One thing that I think has helped him, is that they have found a way to take him off the defense without hurting there. If he can be a offensive only player, like he has been for several weeks, he becomes even more dangerous.

 

- The defense will flat out hit you in the face, and come up with big plays. 11 INT (2 for TD) and 10 FR... that is 21 takeaways. This defense is very good. They have had their bumps (McEwen) but they are one of the best tackling defenses I have seen in a while. They just dont miss many, and like someone said earlier, there are 11 around the ball every play. Brunsvold and Coats are monsters inside with both having over 100 total tackles on the year. I think if Wayne County is going to have success it is going to be by formationing them to death. MTCS will come in well prepared and ready to play smash mouth football.

 

- Coaching. A lot of people have said this doesnt matter, or Coach Shad is overrated, but numbers dont lie. Take this years roster and last years roster and you will find the same exact players (except for 1 transfer, but he is injured for the year). An offseason and summer program like they had never experienced. 3-a-days and team camp. Practice tempo and pace. Just little things that has made this team better that was not there at any point in these kids life. It is a shame that they are just now getting a good Coach, because the talent has been here. Coach Shad knows how to win and knows how to coach his boys up. I think they will take on the underdog role and play their butts off Friday night. Win or Lose the season has been a success, but they are hungry for more and I know for a fact they will be prepared by Coach Shad, Robbins, Mitchell, Roberts, and the others.

 

I am a Cougar fan I guess, but I think I am very unbiased. They are a fun team to watch and always play a good close game, no matter what.

 

In response to Perry Co comparrisons, I think you can throw that garbage out the window. I heard that a few players had quit PC and it is much different playing on opening night when there is hope and promise than playing Week 9 when youre ready for girlfriends and basketball season. MTCS gave up an opening kickoff touchdown anyway, take that away and the score is 28-7. I think MTCS was obviously the better team, and didnt even have in all their offense or defense as you can see it has expanded since then.

 

 

Now after saying all this the Cougars might come out, play flat, and just be happy with the playoffs. But I would think and hope not.

your being very repetitive. pretty much everything that you said is a reflection of coaching. even "Dillon Wade" is a result of coaching. good coaching and good plays have resulted in his success. MTCS has an amazing coach and they will do very very well in the future. i expect a dynasty out of this team eventually. perhaps one very similar to the JBHS teams of 2005-2007.
