I have to say this game is going to boil down to one or two things.  Look this statistic number up at the end of the game.....passing yardage and special teams points (field goal, P/KO return for TD, maybe even the extra point).  The team that is most productive in these two areas will win this game.  From the film I have seen....the two prefer to punch relentlessly at the other teams defense with those big backs until it wears them down.  They sprinkle in pass plays to try and keep the D on the other side from loading up on them, but without sacrificing their identity.....the team that should win is the one that can find success outside of their wheelhouse.  It is no secret they have good backs and solid line play.....what is the factor that separates the two?  Could be the ability to throw successfully.

....by the team better able to protect the passer

This has a chance to be the best game in 2A this week.  Hampton hasnt given up a score since  the Reagan era and Oneida played Greenback and Meigs pretty well. Hampton is slowly becoming the dark horse. Who would have home field in a Hampton/Meigs game?

Back on track, in 36 hours this game will be behind us and we will know who was the better team on November 15th, 2019.  Two great teams, one goal.  Lots of running off tackle and up the middle.  A few counters by both teams.  Two good defenses.  This game comes down to field position and special teams.  Looked like Gap had not field position all game but for one drive.  Always had a long field.  Short distances to the goal line make for more points.  When it comes down to it, I'll take the Indian special teams to anyone.  Good kicking game and great returns all year.

Good post

Where in the Heck you been Kazamoto. Always like you're imput, well thought out and accurate . Both teams would love to just drive the ball down the others throat all night, looks like that could be a difficult task.  The team that can hit on a few passes or  get a huge turnover will probably come out with W. l like I said before, A good teams year will come to an end.

I’m I wrong in thinking Hampton has the edge at QB. I’m telling there just something about Hampton QB.

I guess thats debatable, just a soph and a 1st year starter. Has a chance of being one of the best in Hampton history. Just as good on the other side of the ball.

That’s a fact. He will come up and hit you. He is so aggressive or physical on defense I’m worried he might get hurt on that side of the ball.

I've found the opposite to be true.  The more physical you are, you're least likely to get hurt than playing soft

Doing the hitting is the way to go. Just can't lead with the hat.

I'd throw it on the first play. Its so predictable to establish the run on the first drive. Put the d on their heels early

I don’t mean play soft but smart. I just worry about a shoulder or even a head.
