I think the Tigers will handle this game with ease, and they will win by at least three scores. However, the second half of their schedule only goes downhill. The lack of competition towards the end of the schedule might be the Tigers biggest threat to a 2A State Champ repeat.

I am concerned about that too.  The way I see it this week will be tough and then it is easy street until the semi-finals.

Unfortunately you can’t pick to skip your District games. NCC has been down the last few years but they are a Rival so they always schedule them the last game before playoffs start. I wish Beechwood would take the 1A teams off their schedule, it hurts them in the RPI.

Game Day!!! ??

Beechwood by 17 to 24

Beechwood keys to win= Use their speed! I think a heavy dose of running up the middle, one of dixie's weaknesses on defense. It's not their second level it's the d line. Beechwood can really expose this with the athletes they have. If Beechwood can get pressure on landers there could be some turnovers. It will be hard because I think one of dixie's strengths is their offense line which I will talk about when I do dixies keys. Beechwood also needs to stretch the field, this will be open after a heavy dose of running the ball right down dixie's throat. If hergot has time he is deadly. Beechwood also has an excellent offense line. Get their athletes the ball in space, Beechwood has many playmakers that can catch the ball and make plays. Berger , Moore, Courtney,  and Parker. If I was Beechwood I would have someone like campbell spy landers, because he can make plays with his arm and his feet. Beechwood also needs to keep someone over top of holbert, they like to throw the deep ball to him. I think last year he was a problem. 

Dixies keys = dixie has found out in the highlands game they can run the ball very well, they have an excellent running back in rohlman, and their offense line is great! I have been to last couple games of dixies and they are big and aggressive.  They need to keep that number 72 in the whole game because he is just nasty, he is not afraid to get up on someone and knock the snot out of them. He is also their best pulling guard by far. When he gets out in front of rolhman it's at least 5 yards everytime. He can also get up on linebackers and he does not stop till the whistle blows. They have been subbing him in and out with another kid and they are planets apart. Wiberly is just a monster and controls his side of the line. Their center is also very good. They do a good job of keeping landers upright. If landers has time he is lights out. He can also scramble with the best of them and pick up yards with his feet. If he gets time he can go over top to Hawkins and holbert quickly. They are two studs. I think a heavy dose of running the ball will help dixie control the clock and keep Beechwood's offense off the field,but landers can also pick teams apart, he has a new target in 8, he is tall and athletic, and can create space. On defense they have to make hergot uncomfortable, if he has all day it will be a long night for dixie. They need to spy him as well. I would probably use Smith for that. The secondary has to keep the receivers in front of them, Beechwood is fast. If dixie does that they have a great chance to pull off the upset. 

I think it will a close game. It will also be one of the best games of the night. Beechwood is looking for revenge because dixie is the last team to beat them. Dixie is looking to build off that big win last week. Both these teams have great chances to go far in the playoffs. 

Can we buy tickets at the gate at Dixie?
