ColtFootball Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 Desales showed me something i believe has been the biggest missing piece, grit. Smacked in the mouth in the first quarter and responded by playing the best football they have played all year. Cannot wait for the rematch next week. Great game monroe county.
Purple88 Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 No shame losing to the defending Champs Falcons! Respect you guys.! Desales this is a better win than you know. Good luck next week in your revenge game!
tsyoung7 Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 What a football game! I must say say DeSales played their hearts out! Their coaching staff made the necessary adjustments and they fought until it was over! Monroe jumped out quick and their defense had the Colts wondering what they had gotten into. They could not move the ball in the first quarter at all. But like all great teams, they found Monroe's weakness and explored it. Monroe has a great run defense but our pass defense is not as great. DeSales passed the ball very good. #16 is for real. A duel threat to pass and run., and he does it very well. And on a side note the DeSales fans are just as loud and crazy as we are! I love them! Great game and wonderful atmosphere tonight. DeSalesDad it was great meeting you and talking some good football. I am definitely rooting for you guys. A real CLASS ACT! Good luck the rest of the way! To our seniors....no shame in the way you guys played tonight. Great ending to a good season...Love you guys!!!!!!

Both fan bases were loud, the game was well played by both teams. It was a clean game - no extracurricular action that I noticed. That was what Friday night high school football is all about.
DeSales Dad Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 Monroe jumped out to a 14-0 lead, and I have to admit I was shocked at their ability to score on our defense. The Colts have not given up more than 17 points in a GAME for two years and the Falcons score 14 in the first. Credit to the coaches for making the adjustment both offensively and defensively. The final three quarters were about as well as we have played this season, particularly offensively. Monroe County was an excellent place to watch a game - my favorite venue of the season.
Coltcity Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 I concur DeSales Dad, very nice stadium, lots of seating. Friendly folks at Monroe County, we were treated very well.......As for the game, Another slow start for the Colts and yet we played the best 3 quarters of the season tonite.....And give Monroe County credit, they came out swinging, hard hitting on defense and creative on offense. Jumping up on us 14-0, had me thinking....they smoked us on that long pass play, as we switched the defensive play call and their QB made us pay....I thought the personnel foul that was called on us before we got our first TD(2nd Quarter) could have been a back breaker, yet we managed to recover from it and score. That show a lot of grit and no quit!.... Our depth made a big difference in the game, as I notice the Falcons were getting slower to the ball on defense and their offense struggle finishing plays in the second half. MCHS played nothing but hard nose football and tested us very well. Again I agree with you DD, the coaches did make the adjustments as needed and kept the kids calm. Go Colts! on to CAL
tsyoung7 Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 I was very pleased with the game! Monroe's boys gave there all, DeSales was just to deep and kept fresh legs in. We hung in there until they just could not go at 100% anymore. It really showed in the 3rd and 4th quarters that they were walking away. There offense was running on all cylinders and had Monroe with no answers. DeSales has a very good defense for the run but Monroe may have exposed one weakness. A spread offense with quick passes and multi formations is very hard to defend at the high school level. It would be hard for me to see them get beat because I have much respect for this program. And once again the FAN base was completely awesome!!!!!!! It is great to see two different schools competing to be the loudest at a high school game. It felt like a college game. It was very high energy and very respectful between both sides. And my son said it was incredible from the field. Very intense!!!!! Go Colts...take care of business next week and then knock off Mayfield!!!! You have a new fan when we are not playing each other!!!!!

tsyoung7 Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 Your Fanbase is just a little over-the-top for me! Nothing personal I promise...
ColtFootball Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Mayfield loves the "us against the world" card.
