Almost game time..

A lot of words have been shared between fan bases, but everyone knows what the deal is here. Huntingdon is rebuilding. Waverly is gearing up for a run to state. On paper this game shouldn't be close. 

Huntingdon did some things good last week in the loss to Mckenzie. They also had some moments they looked lost. They attempted more passes than they did in Hunter Ensleys entire career, it seemed. Throws a wrinkle into the offense we haven't had in the past, but needs A LOT of practice. Too many balls on the ground and the QB running for his life early and often. Also GIVE RIVERS THE BALL. He showed some flashes and will end up being a spark for this team all year. 

The defense made some impressive plays. But also had some mental lapses. Mckenzie killed it running to the left side every other play. 

The line on both sides of the ball was a glaring weakness for huntingdon last week. If they have shored that up some with an extra week of practice, this game will be closer than a lot of folks think. 

I expect Waverly to win this game, to be honest. Probably a score like 35-20. Again, if huntingdon has made some key adjustments from learnings against Mckenzie, this could be closer. 

It is weird seeing Huntingdon as the underdog, but that is exactly what they will be in all of these non-region games. What I hope for is to see these young guys improve each week. They should still win the region fairly easily. If they can pick up a win or two in the non-region schedule, it could build some confidence and momentum for the playoffs..
