Over 7 yards per carry on the run. Impressive. Looks like y’all catch people sleeping on the pass and pop them at opportune times.

Yeah, when teams put 8 or 9 in the box to stop our running game, Coach Kirby likes to call a pass or two.

#1 is the qb Anthony Brown.  He has a good arm but legit 4.4 type speed. He is only a jr so 1 more year to go after this one. He has several offers on the table but recently picked up one from Michigan state. I expect many more to come. 
 

Could be the wrong player, but was Anthony Brown the player at Liberty that came out and said that he was offered by the University of Memphis via Twitter, but the Tigers came out and said they never offered him? I don’t know if you remember, just trying to picture if that was him...

Don’t know anything about what you are talking about but he was at Liberty. The link below will show you his offers including Memphis.

So the updated Sonny Moore rankings has Covington an 11pt favorite plus 3 pts for home field advantage. Supposedly Covington taking this one by 14pts. What does everyone think about that??

Sonny Moore allows +2 for homefield, I know it's only a point but 13 v 14 is huge in the wager world.

Well, Milan won by 7 last year at home. This year Milan has improved from what I hear, both in terms of coaching and with added players. Covington has pretty much the same players, with an added year of experience. One key to me is the addition of a punishing fullback (Flowers) for Covington. Flowers might have been able to gain the first down on several of those "fourth and short" situations where Milan denied us last year.  He might have helped us change the outcome of last year's game. 

I like my Chargers to win at home, but I'm not predicting a double-digit point spread.

Seen Covington play they are tough should be a great game.

I would not be willing to bet on a 2 touchdown win. These teams are too similar in terms of speed and physicality. It will be a tight game IMO. If Covington is somehow able to win by 14+, I will be very impressed and looking to challenge for that gold ball. Diffee worries me! I just feel like his coaching abilities are even better than many think.

Sonny Moore is smoking those left handed cigarettes again.
