we are thinking the same way.  That is the type of score we need to be successful

Social Dweebs does a good job, but you don’t get the feel for the Shackle Island atmosphere. Come on down and enjoy!

trust me Brother I have experienced it SEVERAL times.  There have been some long walks back to the car.  One year we were moved to the gym from the field because of lightening.  I put the family in the car and we headed home on that one.

I won’t pick a score.  What I picked earlier I was teasing you.  I will say that we have to keep Beech at 17-21 points to have a chance.  Beech’s ball control concerns me.  If you have long drive that eat a lot of clock then I think we are in trouble. 

Fair enough. I think your defense has trouble stopping them if they don’t stop themselves with mistakes (penalties/turnovers). The Beech QB may be the most talented we’ve had in several years and I think the coaches are getting more comfortable throwing the ball. With that said, I think you have to respect the pass now, but can expect a lot of run.

I think a lower score allows you to keep it close and we all know anything can happen in a close game. I think it’s important for both teams to come out and set the tone, probably more so for Springfield.

I’m looking forward to this one. Hope I don’t look like a fool with that 31-14 prediction tomorrow night.

You score  31 and that means to me we would turn the ball over twice

Safe travels to everyone tomorrow night! Hay is in the barn for the Jackets! Let’s bring that dub back to Robco!

That’s the thought process anyway. I'm expecting the Beech defense to shut down the run and force the QB to try to win the game through the air. I would bet that leads to forcing a few balls and ill advised throws.
