This should be a great game. Riverside is a very talented team playing against a young Mustang squad that's getting better and more confident each week. Huntingdon's defense is playing very solid right now especially against the run. Hopefully the weather will cooperate and we'll get to see a beautiful night of hard hitting football.

What is the Panthers bread and butter? Everyone knows Huntingdon is going to run run run pass run run run run run run. How many upperclassmen? 

I think Riverside is going to want tn o run the ball. Panthers have 2 impressive rb's that run physical. They can throw it if need be, their quarterback is a little undersized but spins the ball nicely, receivers look good  rangy and athletic. Very good looking offense. Mustangs are really gonna have to step up in this contest.

My early thoughts on this one:

This will be a tough, defensive game I believe. Both offenses can score based on scores I've seen so far this year, but I expect this game to be played 3 yards at a time.

Riverside should be the favorite, but they will have a tough time running on Huntingdon, so that will play into the favor of the Mustangs.

This Huntingdon team isn't as explosive as teams of the past. The offensive line was manhandled by McKenzie. We got beat down by the Rebels. Then a slow start vs South Side before getting it going in the 3rd quarter. We came out firing on all cylinders vs Camden and played our best game of the year so far. Regardless of competition, that level of execution bodes well for the Mustangs moving forward.

Glad we are playing this one in Huntingdon too. Home field advantage is a real thing at Paul Ward Stadium.

With the home field and Huntingdon's propensity for shutting down the run game and then getting after the QB on passing downs, I will pick Huntingdon in a close one here.

I'm gonna go Huntingdon with a score of 27-21.

But those scores could easily be flipped. IMO, this game could show us who will be UC's biggest competition before state.

    • It is what it is. Sorry DFL.
    • One of the biggest loosing teams in Mid-State are the Macon County Tigerettes. I have noticed that the roster is smaller than in the years past. All the senior's have quit. We have a great group of Jr High players coming up. I sure hope they don't loose them, like they have lost so many others this year. With this young group of girls coming up, a weaker district, they should have no problem going to State. 
    • It was updated this season, because I did it.  Linder is the school's all-time leading rusher at 5,156 yards with 2,436 of those coming in 2014. 
    • Oh, I’m sure you did. Maybe you heard just a rumor, but considering we have a football practice field and a soccer field that’s frequently used for lacrosse games and practices, I highly doubt it. Let me change that. I know for a fact that didn’t happen.   Glad you finally stopped attacking a bunch of high school students, but still obsessed with the coaching staff for some unknown reason, even though you could name more than three (at most) coaches without looking it up. But now come up with something else.
    • You really mean the Price twin boys and Lyin Larry.
