NCS @ MTCS

[croz6110]

Lawless opens up things for their athletes to run and make plays. Most teams say well he didn't do anything to us, but look at the penetration he gets which causes runners to go sideways (helping their athletes run the ball down) or if he gets blocked how many blockers did he tie up which frees up their athletes to run to the ball unblocked. No he does not make a ton of tackles but we enables others to do is tremendous.

I get that but how in the world did they stop NCS on offense? Edited October 22, 2016 by croz6110

That NT has nothing to do with them only scoring 20 points.

Time of possession doesnt have anything to do with them only scoring 20? I'm willing to say MTCS grinded it out up the gut and kept them off the field.Also, he does play offense and is a great blocker.

I'll take that 20, we only needed 18!

Steel, not if they play the way they did tonight. Came out flat, very flat. And had an injury that doesn't look good. They will need a game like they had a week ago to have a chance.

 

TC needed NCS to win tonight. The Eagles win sets up a true Region Championship with the winner getting 1st. If TC loses they end up 3rd with gville #2. Win and NCS #2 and Gville is 3rd.

3 turnovers in our own territory. Can't put in on the ground or in their hands. Edited October 22, 2016 by maui615

He is a two way player. He plays TE a lot on offense and also lines up in the slot. He has the skills of a wide out and blocks better than anyone else on the o line. He is an SEC recruit. Take that away from your offense as well as the second best lineman we have out for the season, and Willhoite (best RB in 1A IMO) and you take away a few points. All that said, MTCS played one heck of a ball game.

IMO, this game hinged on a decision by the MTCS coaching staff.  I cant understand not going for it on 4th down. They were running straight up the gut on us all night without Lawless, got into 4th down if I remember over some incomplete passes. Lined up to make us jump on 4th and inches but we didnt bite, then punted. That gave us life and I think was a big factor in the ballgame.

Other than not going for it on that 4th down, MTCS is a very well coached team. They kept our speed right where they wanted it to be all night.  MTCS was very good at the things NCS was not as good at last night.
