So now we have two websites going for this game. 

They have been combined by the CoachT demigods.

Man I wish we had the Tyler kid, Slatton has been most improved on the line but I seen him with a knee brace on last night.  Little Roho has improved.  What about bigger Roho, when is he back?  I like the fight that little Ronto has in him, Id put him on the line.  Not being biased but I also think the Allison boy should play more on offense.  He’s got good size.  I know he’s missed a lot of learning being out so much but just try it for a play or two then sub out.  The Lewis boy has improved greatly as well at center.  Then there’s Starkey and Peacock.  Sub them all on offense.  That’s what we will need to do in the playoffs.  
 

Basically what I’m saying is is we were completely healthy on the line I think we would be just fine.  

I'm with you brother. There's no more games if we lose, so throw caution to the wind. I think the Allison kid is as good as the others, so he needs more playing time.  I commend them all for playing hard, but the OL is going to take us as far as we're able to make it.

Hopefully they aren’t that dumb and are playing the best players.

I’m sure they are playing the best players.  Just so many injuries on the line we’ve had to mix things up.  Just need to get them ALL involved during the playoffs.

Can anyone give us a true assessment of Clay County?  We know it will be a tough test but we are ready for the battle.

I thought there were some Clay Co folks on the T ?

It looks like they have mostly blowouts all season long.

SP wins but this is another great Rd 2 game

I can give a bit of an outsider’s commentary. It depends on who they play at QB really. #11 is their hoss, they can line up in a power set and he will run over people but from what I understand has been hurt most of the year. I think he is healthy now. #12 is a freshman that has played well in his stead. He will be a very good player one day but is still a freshman doing some freshman things, good arm though. #44 is the main player out wide, he has a serious set of wheels. The team overall will play very hard. I think SPitt will score a touchdown late to make it something like 28-14. If SP overlooks Clay or lays an egg Clay can 100% win but the straight up talent differential is 2-3 TD’s. Granted if Clay lays an egg it could be more

Looks like the Westmoreland and Gordonsville were close games. I watched the Gordonsville game but it's hard to judge watching on TV vs in person

Appreciate the insight. I remember the QB #11 a few years ago when he was a freshman. He was very talented then and had great size for a QB. Sounds like this will make for a very good round 2 game.

Spot on - SP will begin to control the line as the game wears on. Clay can run over your, or air it out. I would bet the SP secondary will get a pick which could / will be the game changer. Pirates score and win by 2 TD.
