No way Scott is #5 . They couldn't beat CovCath or Beechwood. Since Scott likes playing small schools, they should put Woolley's alma mater back on the schedule
I am not sure what your problem is with Scott and them turning things around. It is like people hate to see them do good or can not accept it.
-
I think they could beat Beechwood and CovCath. They play 2 6A teams in Conner and SK this season.
Your right and they play NCC and played Dixie . This is one of the tougher schedules for Scott in years .They are doing a good job .
-
This will be a good week for the Eagles to work on somethings and also get some guys some rest probably after the 1st quarter . This is a key week to stay on course and keep the foot on the pedal , to prepare for bigger teams and districts. They have Conner next week .
-
As far as offense , I would find it in my opinion they run behind the blockers right at the gut and a hole or 2 over. Not so much east and west . The defenses have been loading the box and I think running straight up behind Rice and Tucker will be more effective. The passing game has improved, and we just need to look at the style runners we have and what is to be setting them and the team up for the rest of the season. The backs are good , just not sure the speed is there to run to the sideline and pull blockers every play. They would get more yards running up the gut. This will also help control clock, as Scott obviously wants to do , and keeps us out of delay of games. The weapons are there to make something special with this group. I hope the adjustments will be made . Newport game would be a good one to try out some new stuff . just a thought.

First, congratulations to the Scott Eagles. They played very well last night and have a good football team. I was impressed with the size they have on the line. While last night wasn't a good game to judge them (the Eagle line) on as the Dixie line is still young and inexperienced, I can see them pushing around a lot of other teams.
Now, this Dixie team is vastly different from last year's team (as many knew would be the case). The line needs to do a better job holding their blocks and picking up assignments. Faeth had pressure in his face every time he received the ball. Not much the young man could do. And the same goes for the RBs. They had very little time or space to do anything. Some decent runs but not too many. The identity of this team cannot be the same as last year's team. The personnel do not match the scheme.
On defense, the team missed way too many assignments and tackles. There was occasional pressure on Scott but not near enough.
All in all, while the score was not expected, the result could be seen beforehand. This Dixie team has to get back to fundamentals to be competitive. The good news is, they have plenty of time to do so.
Scott has a very young line as well. They do have one senior , and One junior . the remainder I believe are sophmores . But I do agree , the issue Dixie had was upfront with Scott . There is plenty of weeks for both these teams to improve and move on .
-
Yes he could not turn the corner on sweeps and outside runs. Dixie defended that well. Scott will make their hay running up the gut. If you stack it on them, they can throw decent enough to maybe make you pay.
I don't know if a healthy Pleasant could have gotten around the corner.
I have to agree . I would love to see them run more inside gaps behind Rice and Tucker . Use the size and strength they have and pound the ball and control clock. Behind these 2 massive lineman , they should get 3 to 5 yards a pop. The backs and the offense would benefit much better. The story right now is the defense and the heart of these boys . That is what has been the true difference. Danny Fitzgerald has also improved his passing game and that helps balance the offense.
-
Good job Eagles. The thing that is different with this team than years in the past is week after week there are different playmakers. This team feeds off each other and shares the spot light well . They are solid on defense and make huge plays !
-
I say Mason County in a close one.
-
They will turn things around . Good programs always find a way ... I see them beating Campbell County , and Ryle. If Sk is healthy when they play it could go either way. I also see them ending up good in the district and making some noise in the playoffs. You can not rule them out week 1. Tons of football yet to play .

Gage Tucker was just contacted this evening and invited to a game day visit and a meet and greet at the university of Tennessee .

Seems like all summer long we heard about how potent Scott's O would be. And they didn't put a single point up against NCC. Kind of concerning if I'm Scott. I think this game means more for Scott then it does for Dixie.
Maybe you are right . I think this win may mean more to Scott than Dixie. They beefed up the schedule in the non district , to help better prepare them for district play and playoffs. This week is an important game to work on some of the mistakes and offense . The goal is to get better week in and week out . If you can win while still improving that is a bonus. This game means more to Scott also because of the years the program has been very poor. These kids have been part of The programs Change . They keep hammering everyday .

What on Gods good earth do the Eagles feed these kids? Am I reading and seeing not 2 but 3 300pounders playing line for the Eagles..
Beans and rice have not missed them. I say that about myself folks so please don't be offended (sensitive folks). We'll witness a heckuva battle in the trenches. This is going to be a dandy of a game against a couple Kenton county brother schools. It's going to take a very good effort by the DH defense to contain London, Pleasant, and Perrin. I also know Scott will have fits with the three headed attack of Torres, Barmore, and Barrett. Will be the battle of the power run offenses! Who has success sprinkling in an occasional pass with success could be the difference.
This one could come down to turnovers and penalties and whoever has the least wins...
I'll be there with my :popcorn: and beans and rice. Will give a full report before weekends end.
As far as I know there are 2 lineman over the 300 mark .

Although both teams seem to be struggling a little bit early, I think both will be fine come playoff time. Yea, Dixie lost I a scrimmage, but this year's Beechwood team is good, so don't sell Dixie short. Scott's offense is not designed to put up a lot of points, so the score against NCC doesn't surprise me. I think Dixie wins because imo they have the ability to score more.
The offense struggled last week with penalities and missed blocks. They also played a pretty good NCC defensive team. I think after a few adjustments in practice , and with the style of offense they run , they can score in a hurry and will. In the past they hurt with the balance of passing game . They have done good on adding that this year. They also have a solid defense. Scott will be just fine . I still say Scott by 12.
-
Scott should have this one. Beechwood scrimmage the Dixie varsity team for three quarters and beat them 27-6. (right, coach1980?)
Yes . I agree . I think Dan will have his offense back on track this week .
-
Bracken County 18
Ludlow 13
-
Scott 8
Dixie 7
Interesting score ? Much like last week .

I would love to see Holy Cross pull this one out . Good luck !

I can see Scott playing Conner and Bourbon very well , and would not be surprised if they don't end up winning both of those matchups. (Not blow outs). But a win !! As for SK, I think they are to deep for Scott . They are a large 6A squad , with talent. It is also the last game of regular season before playoffs . (injuries need to be avoided ).
