Millington vs Bartlett

[trojanswars365]

Everybody loads the box on the Trojans....that is no secret. It is because we are known as a run team. In the past we were so strong we just ran over the opponent. We will be able to strong arm a few teams with our running backs but that will only carry you so far. You have to have a balance. Short passes (5-10 yds), over the middle stuff and screens are high % completions that could help spread some defenses out. Against MUS we would have 3rd and 8 or more and run the ball. Im not saying you cant get first downs that way but it is tough.

 

If we are to beat Bartlett we will either have to just run over them or spread them out a little some way. That goes to say for the whole season also.

Very true comments! I agree 100% ! I believe you will see this happen sooner than later. New coach adjusting to team and team adjusting to new coach, but talking to Millingtons coach he seems to be thinking that way.

Trojans roll 40-14. Have 376 yds rushing and force 5 turnovers. Roland Genesy 13-143 yds, Travron Taylor 6-119

Bartlett's QB, Chuck Seagle, looked good for a sophomore. Bartlett should throw the ball more cause they definitely couldn't run tonight. 22 carries-19 yds.

Congrats to the Trojans staff on a lot better game. Few penalties, no holding calls, no offsides, only a couple illegal shift calls, no delay of game penalties. That is all coaching....Good job coach!

 

Run game was awesome!!!

 

We must find a pass defense sometime this year or we will lose the important ones. Somehow somewhere we are going to have to defend the pass better.
