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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
beaten central cruise east games heck last looked louisville played playoffs tough year
We know what Louisville Central has back and they played our tails off last year after we got a 40-0 lead. Bullitt East has already beaten them and not looked back at anybody. So they must have a heck of a team. We can't just go on cruise into the playoffs because we are going to have some tough games right away.
both game passing running
Our passing game was better, but our running game suffered. We have to get them both working together.
johnson keeps tough wrap
Johnson is really a good, tough back. If you don't wrap him up, he just keeps going.
last practice week
Last week he couldn't practice at all. He's a little sore, but he'll be fine.
avoid ball best field finished game hit holes line miss nice offensive opened people played running runs smarter tyler
I thought our offensive line did an outstanding job. They opened some nice holes and made adjustments we have not been making. They played smarter and Tyler hit the seams he needed. He also made some people miss in the open field and then he finished runs when he couldn't avoid contact. It was his best game running the ball and our best game blocking.
