Well that was fun.

Bucs defense was good all night. We have a solid unit. Good luck the rest of the year Pirates. I still think you can get to Cookeville. Lets both bring a gold ball home.

Thanks for the nice post, but if SP didnt get a gold ball last year they for sure are not getting one this year.

Like I said Boyd is solid and they play defense the right way. They are better than SP up front on both sides and it showed. Also, SP turning it over and letting Boyd have the ball at the SP 40-45 yd line 5-6 possessions didn't help. Just keep working to get better is only way to go.

There's no way around it...nearly everything said in the last few pages is true. We got whipped. Fair and square. BB #78 is definitely a handful. #15 ran at will up the middle. And if that wasn't working #1 would get five yards on a keeper. Our defense had no answer for them.

 

Fumbled snaps also took a toll on us. Lankford couldn't find his footing. Neither could Hale. Don't get me wrong - I think they're great, but they just couldn't get out of first gear tonight. Little Man was definetly burning nitro tonight. But the team as a whole just couldn't put it together. We were flat as a pancake. As far as I know there were no injuries, so that's one good thing we came away with tonight. It's time to pick ourselves up and dust ourselves off and get ready for a bumpy ride.

Tough game to watch being a Pirate fan, but the line play for the Bucs was the difference...along with the great kicker they have. We just don't have enough quality lineman to dominate on the line...or else they are taking plays off. Our backfield is solid but can't break tackles when they are meeting 3-4 guys at the line of scrimmage. Little Man ran hard and had two big runs tonight or this game would have been more embarrassing than it was. The Pirates seemed to be in another world from the beginning and the Bucs slammed the ball down their throat and smacked them in the mouth. Like someone said earlier, the Pirates could possibly lose the next two games if they don't play with more effort and discipline. Only the veteran players can turn around this team because the road does not get any easier from here.

 

Bucs, good luck the rest of the year. Your team is solid and will be in the mix for the road to Cookeville.

Is Boyd's offense really not that good? Cause SP's defense is pretty bad
