Merrick kicks 14 FG's....

Now I am just going on what I seen last Friday at the scrimmage and as a fan. I dont see this Bell County team beating anyone early by 50.

 

I have heard that from alot of people Trenches. What is the major difference from this year to last? I thought the Bobcats returned almost everyone?

Yea, word is this team is supposed to be better then last.

Just from what I saw from the stands Friday night. We have some major holes defensively and we didnt look to be very aggressive either.

Then offensively we looked awful at times.

IMO there are no major diiference, it was two good mountain football teams going head to head and when that happens some of the early seaon problems that need to be corrected show up.

Agree totally

Merrick breaks record with 61yd FG as Bell rolls 31-7 over Garrard.

Two words come to mine. Simpson and Carton. Both have not played due to injuries at camp. Both players are key on defense, especially Matt at LB. Defense is not same without these two key players. Look for both to be back Friday night. Bell rolls.

Didn't he have a 60 yd. attempt that nearly made it last year that fell off the tee during snap/hold up there against Lincoln? Must be good field to kick on.

Also narrowly missed a 60 yarder, or very close to it, at Leslie County last year, with kicking up a ton of dirt, and a bad hold. As to the Bell offense, I'm just not completely sold that Zachery has the composure and provides the type of ball security Kyle Nelson brought to the bobcats last year, 11 TD passes, and no INT's, now 11 doesnt seem like alot I know, but for Bell County, thats a huge season for a QB:lol: Nelson also very rarely fumbled, I've seen Zachery fumble several times, scrimmages and games, in his performance against Lex Cath. last year, he had I beleive 3 turnovers alone, where Nelson had 0, not taking anythign away from Lex Cath, great defense, just IMO, I think Zachery needs to protect the ball better, if he does this, the Bell Co. offense has the potential to be one of the most explosive in the state, this is by far one of the most athletic Bell Co. teams we have possibly ever had.

I've read several posts now where you are "hating" on Zachery?! Not sure where that is coming from, but I'm starting to get some ideas. Maybe you think we should have someone else at QB?

No ha ha, I had the feeling someone was gonna think this. I've got a ton of respect for Zachery, I didn't in any way mean to hate on him, I personally think hes an absolutely incredible athlete, no disrespect intended at all. Just IMHO, I think the task of filling Kyle Nelsons shoes, in just one year is gonna be tough, I know Zachery has a ton of experience at the position (grade school, JV, limited varsity). I suppose I could have worded things differently, it's going to take time for the offense to click with Shawnta, most of the offensive starters have gotten used to Nelson and played with him for 2-3 years, and personally, I think there should have been a bit more of a competition for the QB spot between Madon and Zachery, not only due to the team having to make the transition, but also because Zachery is a huge receiving threat, and we will only have 1 returning starter on the outside, and I feel theres much more of a threat to go down the Field with both of them out there, like last year. But I stated before, I hope this offense clicks, because if so, it'll definitely be hard for any team to handle this year, Zachery is a big time play maker, but has been a bit careless with the ball, and id like to think it's the fact that he's been thrown in trailing with usually only a half to play in big games and it's just nerves getting to him, if thats the case, its a very good situation for us. Again, I apologize for any disrespect, it wasn't intended to be that way at all.

Would have to take Bell County. No offense to Garrard, but Bell is too dominate for many to handle.

 

54-0!
