mustang98 Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 Mustang98 we haven't done a very good job with either of the 2 you mentioned this year. Afraid it may be another long night. I am afraid you are probably correct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carguy59 Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

TheMirrorThief Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

godawgs11 Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 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.

NCSdad23 Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 How many times did "Danny" carry the ball? Yea I will continue to say we are. Thanks though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks though. you're right, he only had 52 rushing tds in his career. Only 7 last year, still better than Xavier or Willhoitte this season or Watson for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
