Final.

Nice win for the Lions. Congrats. :thumb:

Mod please fix Rock castle score to "8" instead of 0.

Garrard says " They where who we thought they where " haha!

 

In all seriousness good ball game by both teams. Rockcastle might have just overlooked the Lions a little bit. Garrard finally got the running game going late. Hats off to the Garrard defense .. Rockcastle had trouble moving the ball all night and they came up with some big stops. Good win Garrard!

Bad calls by rock offense

 

Should have scored more than once

Too much speed to go to waste and a great athlete to give ball too

Good game Garrard

What hurt Rock the most were those scrambles by Crutchfield.

What hurt Rockcastle was Garrards defense

I think tonight was his most effective night of the season running. He really made some big plays to keep drives alive.

When Rockcastle was 1st &Goal at the 4 late after coming on a long drive, I was surprised to see them run three straight times. Their short passing game had been effective.

GC defense was pretty solid big line nothing to impressive other than that just wore down rock just enough to get some plays in. Rock defense held GC run game to no where near what they were averaging they broke 2 plays late in the fourth that went for like 30-40 yards on a pretty tired defense for 44 minutes Rock stopped GC. Rock gave up one decent pass for maybe 40 that gave them the 8-0 lead that lasted until halftime. Rock tied the game at 8-8 going into the 4th. The TD that put GC up 14-8 looked out of bounds but refs called it a TD. The final TD came around 7 minutes to go when defense was wearing down and broke a run for TD made it 20-8. The entire game there was multiple times (4+) holding calls that the refs just were not going to call on GC. Let's face it there was a lot of calls the ref wasn't calling but that's beside the point. GC needs to give rock credit they have a pretty darn good run defense one that GC can't deny. They came in averaging over 300 yards a game an tonight they didn't get it. To GC favor tho they did hold Rock twice inside the 5 yard line late from scoring to hold on to the 20-8 win. Can't let the defense stop you within 5 yards if you want to win. Was a good hard hitting game by both teams. Good luck the rest of the season GC good game.

If you can't score on 1st and goal from inside the 5 you don't deserve to win anyway

 

Garrard does have nice def

 

Rock did great job stopping Garrard

Could have been reversed on score

GC coaches do not care one bit if you hold their team under their averages, they only care about scoring 1 more point than the other team. Another methodical win by GC. Good to see them open the passing game up. Rock offense has got to improve or they won't win many games.

I never said GC coaches care about getting there average every team just wants to win regardless if it's by 1 or 50. All week we was hearing how GC was going to run run run and how it was going to be the foley show etc and I just pointed out that even tho GC won it wasn't easy an they didn't get close to their average due to Rock defense. GC played good enough to win tonight an Rock made enough mistakes to deserve to lose. It was a good game overall.

No surprise here, Rock is to slow and one dimensional. It's very easy to prepare when you know exactly what is coming.

 

Wow I just saw a gigantic post of nothing but excuses. I always felt you should win and lose in reality. The game is what it is, refs don't lose games, and teams don't lose because they are tired. If they did lose because they are tired the opposing teams game plan was successful. Reality is a great thing.
