Henry County hosts Ridgeway: Week 3

[BlackHavenSenator]

He's not worth 30 points against Henry County. You'll see what I mean. So you're saying that Ridgeway will score AT LEAST 30 points tonight due to the QB alone? Keep dreaming BHS!

 

LOL. I'm not dreaming. That QB is legit.

What's HC's base defense? How many points do you think Ridgeway scores Red Warrior?

Henry Co. must got that Fire again this season... That's wassup... I still think the final score will be like 45-38

[FactsOnly]

No one in the state will score 45 points against Henry County.  In Fact, if we play Ridgeway twice, they won't score 45 points totaled over both games.

If Ridgeway plays well then they'll score 21.........in a loss!

Red Warrior:

 

I think Ridgeway scores more then 21 points on Henry County myself. I think Henry County wins ... but I think Ridgeway scores at a minimun of 28 points, but I would not be shocked if it was more then 28.

 

I'm still curious ... what is HC's base defense? 4-3? 3-4? Fifty?

I think BHS meant 45 Henry County, 38 Ridgeway.

Facts:

 

Henry County allowed 21 points by Liberty Tech, and 20 by Beech who only had a week of practice to adjust to life without JH ... a WingT offense that is predicated on running. I think Ridgeway's offense is better then both of those two teams, and those are the best two teams you've faced this year.

 

I don't care when the scoring happened and what string of defense was in the game. I think that Ridgeway is going to score points and it will be more then 21 points.

I believe you are wrong and I hope I am right.  We'll see in a few hours.  Just curious though, which of our first team defensive lines do you think will give up all those points?

Wow ... just the defensive line huh ... don't need the rest of the defense to shut down Ridgeway.

 

OK ... if you say so.

4-3.......and I'll be surprised if Ridgeway scores more than 14 points.

Ok, let me tell you how this works.

 

Efforts at rushing are thwarted by what we call the Red Swarm.  Works equally effectively for the running backs and for the quarterback.  Most teams will keep trying even though it isn't working because they don't have other options.

 

But . . .you guys, of course, have the spectacularly accurate quarterback.  Problem here is that when the receiver catches the ball (or doesn't catch the ball), they receive a blow that discourages any subsequent desire to be thrown to.  It makes their arms seem shorter.  This will wear off, but not tonight.  Every pass will also be heavily contested from your side of the line.

 

Then, somewhere in the third quarter, your offense will begin to tire.  Our defense will not.  This will lead to mistakes.  This is usually where it starts to get out of hand.

 

Compound this with no opportunities to run the ball back to decent field position after our scores, and you have a long night and an extra long ride back to town.

 

I didn't want to spill our beans until your bus left, but our QB is also spectacularly accurate, faster than anyone so far has been prepared for, smart, well coached, and a playmaker.  We have the fastest two high schoolers in Tennessee on defense.  We don't have one player that is likely to get 100 yards offense, but we have 6 who are likely to get 80 yards each tonight.

 

So, win tonight and you've done something quite impressive.  I just don't see it happening.
