Week 8: Alcoa at CAK

[BCsportsfan]

The CAK Warriors are ALWAYS Warriors on the field. They play tuff and never give up!

Kudos to CRB for jerking a knot in a CAKe players butt for kicking at an Alcoa player on the home sideline after Mitchell covered the Dockery fumble. No place for that in the game and now, I think, this player realizes that. It happened right in front of the side judge and no flag was thrown, but Rusty saw it, as did I, and handled it immediately.

Good job, coach.

You guys been talking about CAK nanner pudding but I got me a piece of home made apple pie and it was awesome.

No kidding. It almost looked like he was gonna pooch punt.

Watching the game on TV, the QB was so far back, you could not see him on the screen before the snap.

I don't blame CRB for doing that either. He knew his line would struggle with our D-line. As it was, we had 4 sacks for 35 yards.

This has been a strategy since the first game. CRB knew that the OL would have issues and tried to compensate by positioning the QB deeper and using the shovel type pass as a "running" play. It's debatable whether this helps (against the rush up the middle) but makes it easier for the ends...Regardless, this has been the strategy all year. Nothing new against Alcoa. And considering the talent and depth advantage Alcoa had, 4 sacks was not bad.

 

Great game by a team with far superior athletes overall. Congratulations to the Tornadoes. With only 6-7 seniors, maybe next season will be a more competitive game.
