certainly county district edge game good lost mean race russell whoever winning wins
Whoever wins the game certainly will have a big edge because even if you lost a game later, you would still have the edge in the tiebreaker by winning this game. Southwestern is a good team. But Russell County is also undefeated. Winning this game doesn't mean the district race is over.
best good healthy held last needs rest team week
Having a week off has been good for him. He went through all the drills last week, but we held him out of contact. We have to have him healthy to make a (state title) run. We can't have him play a week, rest a week and then play. He needs to be there for us to be the best team we can be.
attacks ball block defensive double good guy hard holds lines offensive runs size staple team
Minton is really a good player. He attacks and runs to the ball really well. For a guy his size to run like that is amazing. He is the staple that holds their offensive and defensive lines together. We may have to double team him all the time, but even then it is hard to block him.
continue either game good lost played pull seniors separate start stay takes team
We all have to do what it takes to be successful. We've lost one game and not played real well in the other game. Now one of two things will happen. Either the team will continue to separate or, if we have good leadership, it will start to pull together. It won't stay the same. If our seniors want to pull this team together, then we can be successful. If not, then we are in for a long game.
athletes athletic ball clay field good guys henry looks maybe open similar size slow using
Danville still looks good to me. They have a very quick, athletic team. They are similar to Henry Clay talent-wise. Maybe they don't have the size of Henry Clay, but they are doing good things with their offense. They are using a lot of misdirection to slow down your pursuit. They are getting the ball to their athletes in the open field and they have a lot of guys who make plays. They look like the same old Danville to me.
aggressive ball bounce came good knew night outside physically whipped
We knew they were a good team. But we just didn't tackle. We weren't aggressive enough. They came off the ball and just physically whipped us inside. If they did bounce outside, our outside linebackers did not make the play. It just was not a good night defensively for us.
good henry speed
They don't have the speed in the backfield of a Danville or Henry Clay, but they have good speed.
attack defense defensive good offensive running
They are getting better every week. Their offensive and defensive fronts really attack you. They have a good running game. Their defense is solid.
against both good porter solid thomas
They are both solid runners. I don't know if Porter will play against us or not, but Thomas is a good back, too.
ball covered covering defend double early game helps leaves left matter missed opportunity others passes people prepared running screen ways
We missed the opportunity on some screen passes early to get him the ball. After that, they double covered him and that left others open. But we have to be prepared to find ways to get Seth the ball. No matter how much double covering him helps our running game or leaves other receivers open, we still have to get him the ball and make people defend the whole field.
game given kids second straight trying
We are trying to let some different kids play on the kickoff team, but that's the second straight game we've given up a touchdown. If not for that, we would have been up at halftime.
aaron blocks couple feet job moving pancake staying
Bradley had a couple of pancake blocks and Aaron did a much better job moving his feet and staying on his blocks.
kids played
Don't get me wrong, we still got a win. But I know, and I think the kids know, that we can play better than we played tonight.
couple district feeling might moves niche trying
We are still feeling out some things. We might make a couple of moves and see what happens. We are still trying to find everyone's niche before we get to district play.
