Game went about like I thought. I had it 35-24 St. X.

BG has major problems up front on both sides of the ball. But particularly the OL. The offense just hasn’t looked good the last few games.

The BG defense has improved after some changes and experience.

But BG’s OL has been bad last year and this year. Not sure if they just aren’t very good, have changed the way play, or just have some wrong personnel in wrong places.

BG can’t run the football which is not normal.  They can’t protect Deuce either against good upfronts.  They’ve got issues for some reason.

St. X had four turnovers….FOUR……and BG could only muster 12 points.  Not good.

The good news is BG won’t see a team with dl/ol dudes like St. X again this season.  South is close and they dominated upfront in that game against BG.

BG had a couple of injuries which they couldn’t afford. Another reason I’m not a huge fan of scheduling these big games at the last game of the season.

BG has some work to do, but should make a deep run in the playoffs and is one of a few teams that can win the state championship.  Just got to get some things figured out.

I'd be extremely surprised if they even have to break a sweat before the state semis.  So the good news for them on injury/figuring out front is that while not truly "resting", they're almost four weeks before they'll see a true game again.  It looks like that'll likely be on the road for that one at either Highlands or South Warren.  They already beat one of those.

Good win for X heading into playoffs.
 

Absolutely shocked the high octane offense of BG only put up 12. Did they have some injuries?

The only injury I know of is CJ Sweeney (pardon my spelling if that’s incorrect), who is out for the rest of the season.  BG’s offense just wasn’t good all around.  Bad play calling, O-Line struggled, QB lost trust in having time in the pocket, couldn’t run the ball, etc.
