McKenzie vs Huntland

I haven't had a chance to watch any film yet on Huntland other than the end of their game last night.  I see they are big!  Can they run the floor?  What about their guard play?  Can they handle a press like McKenzie will show them? 

Should be a good one at Bethel on Saturday night!

I have seen Huntland play but only a couple of times.  Really good size and #14  and #21 appeared to be good players in the games I saw.  Also #31 has good size, but there wasn’t a ton of production in the games I watched.  I don’t see Huntland having much of an opportunity to win this game as I think the McKenzie pressure will force enough turnovers to win easily.  McKenzie is the much faster team so I suppose for Huntland to have any chance then it will have to really control the tempo.  I just don’t think the Lady Hornets will be able to do that

Huntland fans.  I wish you safe travels.  One of the most important things about traveling is where to eat. Here is what I would suggest in McKenzie in no particular order.

Bethel has Chick Fila on campus in Crisp Arena

I’ve watched plenty of tape on both teams and saying they will win easily is far fetched. McKenzie has speed and gets plenty of steals but Huntland has good guard play and is alot bigger. If huntland gets into a half court set against them then they will have a field day down on the low block. Huntland has a chance to upset them if they limit turnovers to under 15

Yes it could be close if Huntland can establish the pace it desires, but I think McKenzie will force enough turnovers that Huntland will be playing catch-up and unable to play at a slower pace and utilize its size.

Yeah you’re right McKenzie is way better. Huntland stands no chance of throwing over the top of the first trap

I don’t think Huntland will turn it over every time, but McKenzie forces plenty of turnovers against virtually everyone.  Huntland has size advantage, and #14 will be a tough matchup in particular — but Davis and the Reynolds’ sisters will be even tougher matchups for Huntland.  At the end, I think McKenzie will be in front by a comfortable margin

    • Looks like South Pittsburg added some more talent!  
    • So much talk about an investigation about student record manipulation and then everything has went silent. Has anyone heard how the investigation is going?
    • Basically what you're saying is schools can basically bully students around and get away with it because they are protected. I agree to a certain extent but when schools decisions to keep knuckleheads on staff starts costing kids careers and a college education there is a problem. Our school system last week had a teacher supposedly push a kid and the parents went to the law and the teacher is suspended. So I wouldn't say that they can just do what they want without liability. This case don't pass the smell test because the coach had already been fired before and she got fired after a year on the job. Sounds like the student was right in this case on the outside looking in because the coach gets fired after one year. How many coaches get fired after one year?? Not many. 
    • Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen.
