THE REMATCH HUNTINGDON @ NCS

I've seen a lot of posts so far about stopping 11, how to tell which way he's going to run, playing tight on 3 and not letting him get off the line, so forth and so on.  The real question is what are you going to do about the NCS defense?  It has been said that defense wins championships, and it has never been more true than in 1A football.  There are several defenders all within five tackles of being the leading tackler on this defense.  It is literally a competition to see who can get to the ball carrier first.  Talk all you want to about 11. It's the other 11 who will get you.

It was one poster referring on how to stop #11. That's all. And he's not a Huntingdon poster. We all know how great and almighty NC is and how tough of a task it's going to be for the Mustangs. We are still going to load the bus and travel down I-40 and play. I just hope it's not as ugly as last year! Good luck to your Eagles.

 

I'm excited about our end of the bracket. Should make for some great matchups.

How many times have you seen #11 carry the ball?  He hasn't had enough carries all year for anyone to establish the pattern you are describing.

he heads to the right sideline every time.  He repeatedly jukes left then continues to the right.  The first step to stopping him would be to put a man right on the right sideline before the ball is even snapped

Well said.  Cracks me up when someone says this year's team is not as good as last year's.  I guess 2 losses on the schedule will make folks say that - but it's not true at all.  NCS has never had a secondary like this. 

A match up with WC and Mr. Football will be mighty fun to watch.  Best all-around HS QB I've ever seen us play.

 

 

I honestly think you are wrong. We are not that much different than last year's team. Backs are better, d line the same, special teams better, linebackers, well you can't replace a Bituli but we are as solid as it gets in 1a. Defensive secondary... Best in state for 1a. Not a single poster on any thread has a bead on it. Im not being a jerk.. It's just playoff time.

 

I'm a big fan of NCS, don't get me wrong. But to say that our backs are better than Mareio, Danny, and Barfield last year? come on now. and losing all those seniors, we are not as good as last year. the drop off is not as big as people are saying, but there is a visible drop off.

    • Best-of-three sectional series vs East Robertson at home starting Wednesday.  They put us out last year at this point.  Go Pirates!!
    • I don't believe they have anyone that is surbers caliber but a decent staff overall.
    • Richland plays at McKenzie on Wed.  Should be a good series.  Does Richland have good pitching?  
    • Congratulations to the Warrior baseball team winning the Region Championship.  Last night the football team beat Franklin Co 33-0 in their spring scrimmage. Warriors looked very good. Missing a few players who were playing baseball but still absolutely dominated. A lot of young ones got in halfway through the 3rd when the score reached 33-0. QB Tilton Pickett looked very sharp.  Sam Pickett is on another level this season. Seems to have put on 15 to 20 lbs in the off season and added a step as well. Transfer from last year Williamson caught numerous balls and is very elusive. Lots of athletes on this team. Defense was smothering and will only get better. The head coach from Sewanee was in attendance and offered 2 kids after the game. Could be a special year.
