Boone County at George Rogers Clark (Prediction)

[oldgrappler]

Boone Co travels to Winchester for a contest against George Rogers Clark. This could turn into a contest of big backs testing the mettle of both defenses. Of course, I thought that last week when Boone decided to do a lot more passing. I welcome the variety of attack. I'd like to see Boone use the run to set up the pass.

 

GRC has a good-sized tailback that gets the bulk of the carries. He has 675 yards in 5 games. It seems that the bulk of his carries are between the tackles. Sometimes they place a FB in front to block. Once he gets going down-hill he can be hard to stop. Boone's run defense will be tested. I did see them sneak a couple of passes in here and there.

 

This looks like a decent match-up with the limited look at GRC I've had. It should be the game of the week. After all, who can resist a contest between schools named after two of the most important pioneers ever to grace the Commonwealth?

 

Tell us what you think. Who wins this game and by what score?

I think the clock will be eaten up by long drives in a battle to see who can stop the run.

 

Boone wins this one 19-14.
