After a little more film time today I will say I am extremely impressed by how athletic the Pirates are all over the field. The 4/5 backs are all very solid and each bring something a little different.

They make most of the difference later in the game. Alot of fresh runners take the field later on with tired lineman and LB.

I agree. I think Kelly didn't have one carry until the fourth quarter against you all. He came in fresh.

Y'alls game plan against us was really good I have to admit. You have a good team and coach.

SP kept that big Meigs QB to 16, He got 27 on GB. SP scored 27, GB 20.Not sure the turnovers. On paper that was played on field SP better team. But that GB passing game can break your heart fast and with Roy doing what he did hey who knows.

2nd game of the season for us. I'm sure if SP played Sequatchie again, it wouldn't be as close.

QB was sick all week, starting lineman out, receiver got hurt early in the game. I think these two teams are pretty even. Jmo

SP run game vs GB front 7-8

SP secondary honestly scares me. Then again we haven't really played a solid passing team so the secondary might play lights out. It's something that has always been our weak link in my eyes. The athletes are there no doubt but I feel like the secondary primarily the corners haven't been coached up...? I will probably get blessed out by other SP posters but everyone has their own opinion. Pass interference calls can be very iffy if you will. Do the refs let the boys play or do they throw flags for everything. I do know the secondary have great verticals which is a plus. I could go on and on and on but this is just my opinion.

You know when SP played Meigs the receivers were open Meigs was just to scared to catch them. Swafford threw a couple of dimes that game that could have been game changing.
