Final

Just got home. Game never in question. I'm a proud alumni of Bowling Green and have always viewed the Dragons as the enemy. For the first time in over 30 years of me watching us play them, I actually feel sorry for them. The team has literally been cut in half with minimal players. I now see why the Dragon faithful feel they got messed over. I think the Dragons are in for a tough few years ahead of them.

 

As far as game is concerned, Shanklin and the punter for WCHS is about all they got.

 

Carruthers held on to the ball and probably had around 250 all purpose yards. Clark Payne probably had his worse game of year tonight. I do believe that he is going to be a really good QB for Purples.

 

I sound like a broken record but the Purples are really going to be good next year. They have good shot at winning state this year, next year they will have an even better shot of it.

 

Dragonfire, good luck and stay true to your boys. Tough stuff in he next couple of years.

What worries me is second half scoring. We didn't score against Owensboro last week and only seven points tonight against Warren Central. Our QB is getting sacked way to much. The Dragons put more pressure on Payne than we put on Shanklin. When did we stop blitzing? No wonder our defensive backfield is so good. We're only rushing three or four at most. They need to fix things and be quick about it.

BG gave up 14 to the #1 team in 5A last week and gave up a late 4th Quarter 7 tonight to a team with excellent skill players and the defense "needs to fix things and be quick about it"?

The last two games were sloppy. If you can't score in the 2nd half of a game, your luck will run out eventually. This team needs better line play on both sides of the ball.

Remember the days when a BG vs Warren Central thread would be loaded??? Ohhh those were the days
