I will be shocked if this one is close. Ashland should run away with this one. Russell is down a little more than I thought they would be. Not sure all the new changes were the improvements that everyone thought they would be. Good luck to both.

 

Ashland: 42

Russell: 14

My hope for tonight is that the Tomcats come out, start fast, and limit penalties. This is their 3rd game so I certainly expect things to be cleaned up, especially the kicking game. I remember that Russell's freshman RB seemed talented and had a pretty good game last year. I'm not sure what he has done so far this year, I would imagine the Ashland D will be able to keep him in check. This game may be fairly close through the first 16 minutes, maybe the first half. I dont think that Russell can hang in the 2nd half, I think they lack a homerun threat.

 

Ashland 32

Russell 7
