5A football fan Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 Oakland needs to get it's speed on the edge more with toss sweeps, stretch plays and bubble screens that is how you beat region three teams not running up the middle.

Eh well that is not really the way Oakland has attacked on offense, its been bewteen the tackles, with a toss or stretch to the outside a time here or there. I am very confident, however, that the coaches will find a way to put our boys in the best position possible. As for the possibility of rain, I do not think it really effects either team, especially Cookeville. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzoneAlum34 Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 I think Sam Bass needs to get more rushing attempts and I think he is forgotten on defense as well. He made the big tackle against Smyrna in overtime to win the game so look for him to step up again if thisg ame gets close. Also lookout for Chanz Boyd. He has been banged up with an ankle injury since the Wilson Central game but hes 100% healthy now to run the quick handoff plays to the outside and the post patterns opposite Chris Johnson. Before his injury he and Chris lead the region with ypc and yac. I pray this game doesnt come down to a field goal in rainy weather !!!

I agree about Sam, but I think part of is that he plays alot on defense, and is def not forgotten as he leads the team in tackles. I think for Chanz, it is just a matter of him getting back into the swing of things, he is very dangerous when the ball is in his hands. The mistakes are going to have to be minimized as Cookeville maybe the most disciplined team Oakland will face this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bass has been under-rated this year in the media. He was in the top 10 in the mid-state in tackles last yr at LB and when he got the ball.....you knew it was money. Bass is an excellent TEAM player and I am sure is just happy to be winning, but I think he deserves more kudos for his performance. the same can be said about Anthony Amey. Folk are so wrapped up in Precious and Mcadoo that these guys get shoved in the background. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all just wanna win. They are an inexperienced group in the playoffs but i see them coming together and taking care of biZZZZZZness ! Alot of kids are forgotten. The mayberry kid has atleast 8-10 tackles a game and killed WC last friday, Buddy has filled in great since Boyd was hurt, and lets not forget Mr.Rico! He fills up the middle and allows linebackers to be able to get to the ball bc of him closing holes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
