Bell County

Thomas 18 carries, 140 yards, TD

Burnett 3/3 74 yards 2 TD

Belfry going to have to start taking some chances on defense or have to start looking for strips on a late whistle or second effort. 
 

Both teams are consistently gaining whatever they want. Belfry has made it a little harder on themselves than Bell with a few more mental errors or penalties. They have also gifted Bell great field position on two of their kickoffs.

Thomas is a tough cookie but Belfry LBers have been slow to read and when Thomas gets to them they have struggles to bring him down on initial contact. 

Onside kick fails and Belfry starts at 50 and then promptly commits a false start but Belfry catches a break as the down markers are messed up.
