It looks like Trinity is attempting to put together a run to see if they can make a game with X

If they can make a run at St. X in the playoffs, it would not be without precedent.

Good Coaching and approach --getting those other kids game experience. Cannot help but be better for the future. New season starts in a week.:ylsuper::ylsuper:

It is getting very late in the year and the OL is still up in the air for the Rocks. To beat X we need to be able to run the football so that our D is not on the field giving up huge gains to the X offensive running game. Not sure the Rocks have the beef up front to pull that one off this year.

Yeah, but Phillips seems to alternate good and bad games with X. He's due a good one, and that worries me.

Yes he will have a good maybe great game if T had an OL for him to run behind. Hey these kids are not the same players with a lot of starts as has been the case in the past hence they needed to make it through the season healthy so as to gel for the playoffs, that has not happened. I just do not see the Rocks pulling the reversal in the playoffs this year on X, but that is why we play the games.

You have little faith is Coach Coverdale. He is a master mind of the game and will find a way to beat X, even with the lack of experience on the OL. The bigger question is, can Bean find a way for his defense to stop the run!

No, I have great faith in Cov but he cannot play for the kids. I even like the bunch we have but they have had little time to gel in this very complicated offense. The reason we come back and beat X in the playoffs(State these past few years) is that we are a well oiled machine come late in the year and no matter what bean does or does not do X could not stop our Offense enough to win. No having said that I have stated many times that Mr.B's scheme is going to cost us agian(04 was the first time) when our offense is not at its very best. i do not like his game plans say for 2005 when he was using more of our old scheme to handle X. Hey they have not changed what they are doing for over 25yrs. Even this year they live and die with the run. X is a force and has been throughout our long run, I just don;t see the offense coming alive enough to compensate for Mr. B's bad scheme. Hope I am wrong, .as I said in another post that is why we play the games

Well, you are correct, '04 had some issues in the playoffs which didn't really help the defense. Bean is not like Coach K, Coach K always made great adjustments at halftime which totally shut teams down in the second half. Bean, well his record speaks for itself, but the second half defense is always the same. Rocks will be okay, as long as Coverdale makes the call....

You guys are pretty hard on Coach Bean. How many points did the runner-up team score in the second half and overtime of last year's final?

I am looking at this year, and it is no great secret that Bean doesn't really adjust at the half....the boys are either ready or they are not.

Cloverdale is no more than Hal Mumey. Lots of 5 yard passes and hopes they can run with it,
