2nd Round - Westmoreland @ Watertown

[Grizzly478]

The eagles come to watertown for the second time this year. Watertown won easily first time around. Will this time be different? I don’t think so! Go Tigers

[Grizzly478]

Westy coming off a tough first round win, and watertown is coming off of a blowout. Interested to see how both teams respond after each of their games.

Unless Westy has changed out their entire roster, I see a similar outcome to the first game. H2O was like a machine against Bledsoe. Other than one blown coverage in the secondary in the 3rd quarter I think the Tigers played nearly perfect on defense. On offense it’s hard to nit-pick with scoring 57 points, but against better teams H2O isn’t going to be in mercy rules by half time. We’ll have to be able to sustain drives and stay out of 3rd and long situations. We have the players to do it. Big plays are great and fun to watch. But against better squads, big play opportunities won’t be as plentiful. So next week if we aren’t playing the JV team in the 4th quarter with a running clock, that wouldn’t break my heart. I would love to see us methodically march down the field and score, 5, 6, 7 yards at a time... just to show that we can do it. But of course I will take a win however it comes. GO PURPLE TIGERS!

I agree with the big play aspect! #25 will not be single covered the rest of the way and will not get loose as much as he did tonight. I hope that the defense continues to play like it did tonight; each week during the regular season they improved as they did tonight. This team is special

Agreed. Price is special and everyone knows it. He will be double covered which means someone else will be open. We just have to find that someone else and we’ll be fine.

Watertown has the better team. Watertown murdered us the first time. Watertown should do the same this time. All hard to say for me but it’s the truth, I hope for our seniors sake it’s not a blowout. Going to be a tough one for our boys but they all put their pads on the same way. Hopefully a injury free game!

Throw the last game out your minds it's playoffs .... looking at another #1 ranked team coming to H2O week 2

[Grizzly478]

They will be focused and ready to go again 

[RTD]

I hope TC will be making a trip to Watertown next week and hope both teams are injury free at the end of the game next Friday good luck to Watertown and to the Westmoreland as well

I have a feeling westy will score but they won’t be able to stop H2O, H2O rolls 48-14

As good as Watertown's offense is, I feel their defensive play has led more to their record. I don't think Westy scores until Watertown let's them.
