A late home opener entering week 4 of the regular season as the 1-2 Greenwood Gators host the 2-1 Cougars from Logan County Friday night. This was a great game last year and LC was able to sneak away with a 22-21 win at home.

The SR QB Helle for Logan County has stepped into the role and played it very well, removed from RB last season the SR has thrown for 510 yards in 3 games with 6 TD's, 2 INT's and a healthy 66% completion percentage. When Adler arrived to this program it wasn't long before they became known for their misdirection and a multitude of guys touching the football in the run game. It's no different this year as SO RB Lane Bush leads the charge with 294 yards on 29 carries with 4 TD's. Logan County as a team averages 8.8 ypc and have racked up 14 rushing TD's to this point, very impressive numbers. A large task is ahead for a Greenwood defense that is allowing 35 ppg. The one positive for the defense has been the 8 sacks collectively, however they'll have to stop the Cougars rushing attack in order to have a good outing in this one.

The Gators offense has averaged 153 yards through 3 weeks of football. Very underwhelming performance last week against South Warren and the week prior when they traveled to Warren East and scored 15 points. On the other hand the Logan County defense played McCracken County and allowed 52 points. Their other two opponents, Daviess County was stifled to 13 and Russellville got shutout.

You have to imagine Greenwood will be ready to go in their opener, especially considering it's week 4 and the home crowd has yet to see the team. I'll be interested in the matchup between Gators O/Cougars D, I believe that's where this game will be won. Logan County can put points on the board, it'll be whether or not Greenwood can answer when that happens.

Cougars 35-21

I'd take Logan by 3 scores.

I said before the season started that I thought Barren Co. would beat Greenwood this season and I'm even more convinced now and it may not be close.
