Halls at Lake Co

[mrbigster]

Looks like its going to be a rainy season opening game.My head is saying Halls but my heart is saying Lake Co.Halls has a good quarterback,running back and two very good receivers,one being 1st team preseason all-state.Lake Co is very young and just hoping they can defend the pass .Have to keep the turnovers down to have a chance.

I think it'll be close early, halls take over in the 2nd half. Halls by 21, they just have too many athletes for lake county to contain.

Toss up... depends on witch halls shows up...the one that showed up at the scrimmages comes out I'm giving it to lake co ....if the one that showed out last wk in the tiger bowl shows up then it's halls in a big way!

I believe Halls will outlast the young talented Falcons. Lake County has a bright future if their middle school team from last year continues to improve as freshman.

Going to tough sliding for the falcons. LC could win this game but must play turnover free and they need to force a couple. This will be Halls best chance to have a win streak established against the falcons. After this year the falcons will dominate the series between the two like they always have.

Good way to start off the year 1-0!

Ouch. Falcons' feathers got clipped tonight. Halls got the big win. You can bounce back LC, and good luck to Halls.

Got a lot of things to work on.Good thing tis that Lake Co is a young team.Saw some good things.Terrible things from the secondary and no pass rush at all.Dont think LC ever got close to the Halls QB.LC had a 14-13 l;ead with about 5 minutes to go in the half.Halls was facing a 4th and 17.Thought they may punt but went for it.Short LC defender was in front of the receiver playing the ball and the Halls player jumped over him for a first down.Halls scored a couple plays later.Then Halls kicks off,a good return to midfield.LC ball carrier has the ball standing straight up and stripped of the ball and Halls ball carrier runs the other way for a touchdown.Later LC quarterback has the ball,going to throw the ball untouched and in throwing motion and just like the bloopers,ball comes out of his hands and Halls recovers at midfield and scores again.Both teams were in each others 10 yard line a couple times with no score.LC was on about the 6 yard line and had a 3 and 4 and a running back flinched to move the ball back 5 yards.Things like that really hurt the Falcons.LC let Halls defenders burn them constantly and had Halls not overthrew a receiver a few times,would have had a lot more yardage.LC needs someone to help Johnson run the ball.He had some great runs .QB ran the ball for about 10 or 12 times amd may have picked up 10 yards.total.Would be nice to have a mobile QB .Halls took advantage of a lot of LC miscues and tried running up the score.Nine minutes to go in the game and winning 47-14 and throwing the ball every play with their starters.Then with about 5 minutes left,they get the ball again about mid field.Halls goes to a no huddle the rest of the series and are faced with a 4th and 4 at about the 10 yard line.Decide to kick a field goal.Like people say,buckle up the pants and stop them but was surprised to see all the starters still in the game for Halls at that stage.Would have been terrible to have had the QB or #21 go out late in the game with an injury although I know that can happen at any time.Overall.Just two average teams.I dont think Halls has much of a running game.Not that strong on defense either.Going to see a lot of teams better than LC and LC did move the ball on them.Think LC wins 3 to 4 games.Halls may go 5-5 or 6-4 depending on the teams in their region.Dont know what JCS has this year and I think Adamsville lost their star running back.IF Halls were in Single A ,think they'd fight it out for 3rd or 4th place behind Dresden and UC.Could be close with Trenton and Humboldt and maybe South Fulton.Halls just took advantage of a young LC team that will get better.Just dont have the secondary,defensive lineup that can attack and really could use a mobile QB.The QB did ok and certainly didnt lose the game.If he had more weapons around him,he'd do fine.But he doesn't and not mobile enough to get out of trouble.UC and Dresden will pound this young team.

Yes,long post but game should have been closer than the score.Halls and LC both are just average teams with Halls being just a little better.
