If you don’t blame coaching/play calls I don’t know what to tell you tonight wow

Way too vanilla. We went away from the run too quickly. Where are the stretch plays, sweeps, bunny-hop options like West did? Pound it up the middle all da$& night against a defense that stout? Heck, I thought Jackson did a tremendous job given the circumstances of the same run call all daggum night. Where was Stewart all game? Their one CB was about 5’6 tops. Why didn’t we exploit that? I’m far from being a coach but our offense is way too vanilla, especially against a really good defense like that. Way too predictable. You have to give the defense something to think about on the edge at least. Oh well, with that said they are the better team but it’s gonna be a long season if we can’t open the playbook a little bit more than what I saw tonight.

Yeah SS running two receivers all night didn't give West any trouble. We should have run 4 or 5 in the 2nd half. Make them cover half our team. haha

Probably wouldn't hurt to practice tackling next week cause we sure don't know how to tackle now!!

Yeah, pretty bad tackling tonight but the defense did decent considering they were on the field practically all night, especially the 2nd half and had to defend a short field for a large majority of the game. Our offense just poses zero threat. We can’t stretch the field on any defense so just put 8 in the box and we’re done for.

What is OR's offensive identity this season? It feels like they are still trying to figure out what kind of team they are offensively. For your sake SS, I hope they aren't going through this a month from now.

Apparently run it up the middle ad nauseum Nut, along with the same pass plays. But they never work because our line doesn’t give the QB enough time to throw and the corners are in our WRs grills all night because we have no deep threat that poses any sort of threat. We have a kid who will eventually be a big weapon deep but he is a freshman. In other words, we have zero identity ha.

That's what I was afraid of, because that's exactly what I saw tonight.

Chin up though. I still think you guys are #3 in this region; Fulton looked awful against Karns tonight, and Clinton's offense is absolute garbage.

Yeah, I agree. Can’t believe Fulton lost to Karns. I thought losing to West tonight was a bummer. I can’t imagine....

    • As I said somewhere earlier in the thread, the original plans had no outdoor athletic facilities being part of the campus.  The original plan was for HVA to use facilities at nearby schools.  Very late in the process they came up with a plan and found budget to have minimal facilities and crammed them in to space that never was intended for athletic facilities.  
    • Agreed, the way the field is turned you get the evening sun blasting right into the press box making filming a nightmare there, plus its so low.  The field is land locked and parking is a nightmare too. Seems like Knox County could have done a lot better there with the design and the quality. 
    • I think this upcoming team may be pretty good, they will definately be better up front and if they can replace Dozier, Heyward and Rembert, they can be real good. They have the same strange schedule, but this time with 5 straight home games. The road games at Jeff County, Powell will be tough to open up with and the back side at Bearden is the tough game there.  One question I had if anyone knows: There has been some talk of an indoor practice facility in the past, with the new track area now more of a track area, that kind of leaves a need for a football practice area. Just sayin....
    • I find it hard to believe that 70% of a schools enrollment is zoned for another school district
    • I was told that the indoor facility is happening regardless of the vote on the taxes but it would be a much bigger project with more funds if they vote goes through
