2011 Lane College Football Preseason Preview

 

TSPN NEWS Proudly Presents Your 2011 Preseason Media Guide for your Lane College Dragons

 

Media Day is scheduled for 8/13/11 at 8:00 a.m. at Lane Stadium

 

Quick Lane College Football Facts

 

Lane College is coming off their second 0-10 season

Lane was outscored by 194 points in 2010. (Lane 12o Points to Opp 314)

Lane College Passing Yards Averaged 64.7 yards a game to OPP 145.7 yards Per Game

Lane’s Rushing Last Year 1208 yards an Average of 3.0 yards per carry and 120.8 per game While Opponents Averaged 145.7 yards per game

Rushing Touchdowns 13 While Opponents Managed 22 TD’s Against Lane

201o Total Offense 1855 yards vs OPP which massed 3045 yards

What does this mean for The Dragons? They must find ways to put up more points and control the game. On third down last year the dragons were 39-125 for only 31%. Lane must find a running game to alleviate some pressure out of their QB. Last year QB TAJ DENT was 65 of 126 with 8 int’s for 625 yards with 4 touchdowns. Lane’s offense must get into more short yardage third down situations.

 

Good News For The Dragons

 

The Defense Returns 4 starters which ranked 6 in the conference last year. The Defense needs to create turnovers and help control field position. The defense led by Coach Burroughs must step up and lead the Dragons’ Football Team to its first win since November 1, 2008. Derek Burroughs has recruited some athletes and will turn Lane into a powerhouse.

 

Offensive Issues

 

Lane will switch to the spread offense this year. Lane Offensively needs to get first downs and keep the ball moving. They must limit turnovers and score points in the red zone. The Dragon’s Offense returns only 2 starters and has struggled the last two seasons. Special Teams needs to help the offense out and get positive returns and help Lane control field position which the Dragons desperately need positive field possession to get The Dragons back to winning and hopefully get rid of the goose egg Lane has carried the last two seasons.

    • I used to think like that many many moons ago.  I wondered the same questions but learned that it is just not that easy.  Hiring assistant coaches can be complicated at times.  It takes a few years for HC’s to get who they feel is right for their system.  Couple that with good assistant coaches getting better jobs at times and leaving your program. More to it than some think.  I think you have a good coach up there and time will tell that story.  
    • okay.  Like i said initially, it's question we have to ask, but we sure don't know the answer yet.
    • You’re right, I shouldn’t jump the gun on it. Hopefully it isn’t related to the sports programs, because it’ll end up affecting a lot of innocent kids who just enjoy playing sports.
    • I totally agree but just don’t want to see people jumping the gun by insinuating it was for athletic reasons. Nobody knows at the moment except for those involved in the incident itself and those investigating.
    • Bruh, That portion of the post was simply a product of my imagination. Try to keep up.  The real purpose of the post was to rub salt in this fresh wound following FF’s departure to BGA.
