York @ Smith County

[Rocking Chair]

Good luck OWLS. Looks like this team is starting to peak at the right time. Unlike Owl teams in the past when they peaked to soon and had lack luster play when the play-offs started. Momentum plays a big part in any sport. This years Owl team seems to have a good amount heading down the stretch.

York has some good players and stopping the veer is just a matter of assignment football. Owls win by 3 scores..

Wow Rocking Chair, I can't believe you think this team will beat us by 3 touchdowns when you all couldn't even do this.. You beat this owl team by a score of 41-20 which is 3 scores.. It took you guys till 3 minutes in the game to beat us by 14.. I would really seriously love to hear how you come to that wide of a margin...You guys didn't beat us as bad as you did the owls..

I think this will be a hard fought game by both teams knowing what's on the line in the playoffs. I will be cheering for the dragons.. but I think the game will be no more than a touchdown either way!!!!!!!

I agree. Marion County ran the "veer" to 3 or 4 State Championships in the 90's and they were in our District. It is a tough scheme to contain especially when you have the rb's( Eric Westmoreland) in the backfield. True, you might be open to turnovers but when it "clicking" it is hard to stop!

 

Oh, man! You just had to bring up Marion Co. and Eric Westmoreland! I remember him all TOO well in the '94 Clinic Bowl! The veer kicked our butts royally! But, that was then, and this is now. That was Portland and Marion Co., and this is York and Smith Co. I think the Owls will control the veer and come out with the "W". Good luck to both teams this Friday, and you York fans have a safe trip into "The Hole"!

This Owl defense got embarrassed twice early this season and after that they seemed to get their mojo back. Now I know the opponents haven't been really good but still they have executed the gameplan and thats all it takes to win a game!

 

GO BIG OWLS!!!!

Man I love the veer. I wish we still run it every now and then. Of course we really haven't had the backs to run it except last year.

Regardless what the paper says, the Owls will need to come out sharp. Our backup TB ran for around 150 yards on White House last week so I'm sure York has some backups willing to step up if needed.
