MBA-Ensworth

[BigRedDog00]

Alright men. This is usually the biggest game of the year. MBA looks extremely strong this year. There run game is clicking, and Dylan Hall is playing extremely well this year. MBA's defense has only allowed 2 running backs to rush for over 100 yards this year out of 6 games and pitched two shutouts. Ensworth is strong like always with Corn Elder leading his troops to an undefeated season this year, so far. Any thoughts on this game? Predictions?

Broken record time again.......

Stop Elder.....MBA wins

Don't stop Elder.....MBA loses

 

Agree with KWoodroof, MBA should employ the 8-6-1 defense.

University of Ensworth 38

Big Red 24

It should be a good game but it is at Ensworth and that's never good. It will feature one of the best running backs in the state in Corn Elder and one of the best quarterbacks in Nashville in Dylan Hall.

^{The Big Red will have to limit it's turnovers this year. The interceptions and fumbles killed us last year and will have to be kept in check in order to win this game. Ensworth has a very good secondary and historically gives us fits. Grind it out on the ground with the powerful running crew !!!}

^{I am most impressed with MBA's kicker this year who has shown great poise and accuracy, if it comes down to a FG, I believe he will put it through.}

My pick: Ensworth 31, MBA 14

 

Ensworth's defense will be effective against an improving MBA attack. Elder will allow Ensworth to control the clock and wear down the MBA D.

This will be a big game, but I think BA vs Ensworth will be bigger.

 

Regardless, I gotta go with Ensworth, although MBA will do well.

I give this one to MBA in a tight, exciting game. MBA's defense has been extremely stingy with their run defense. I see this limiting Corn and controlling the clock with their big O-line and 4 running backs and wearing down the Cornsworth D. I will definitely be in attendance for this one.

I think ensworth will learn alot about MBA from the BA game. BA was not very effective on the ground but burned MBA with the short quick passes. Ensworth used a similar game plan against BA last year using corn as a wide out for several long runs .. I have a feeling Ricky will make an adjustment similar to the one he made

At BGA where they were stacking the box against corn. I do not believe MBA will need to do this since they have a better team. It will be interesting to see how this unfolds . I have been impressed with MBA this year and their physical play with the exception of the BA game.

I'm hoping MBA focuses on Ryan this week.

I agree with Wes, but I hope MBA wins

Very funny KW! Made me realize who is actually MBA's opponent this week....LOL

At Mappleworth. Check. Ricky vs. Marty. Check. Undefeated vs. 2 losses. Check. Week off to prepare. Check. Corn. Check, Check. Top 25 team vs. unranked. Check. Check. Check.

 

If MBA can keep Corn in "check" it could be closer than most people think. Neither team has much depth. 28-21.
