After the Frederick Douglas scrimmage, which was pretty much even, People recognized X had a very good defense and the offense was struggling. The consensus was X was young and X would improve. 10 weeks later, X has a struggling defense and an offense that has shown it can only score on bad teams. This game is the last chance to demonstrate if there has been any improvement or if X has gone backward. I have no confidence Landis will do anything good. The kids are playing to avoid the first losing season in 75 years. I am hoping that motivates the kids to rise up.

It wasn’t just on the “2’s”. X kept running a run blitz and running past the PRP back or not having any one to fill in the middle. It was not a sound defense. X was giving up 10 to 15 yards on running plays. The problem was obvious. X didn't adjust. PRP ran the ball pretty well until the PRP kids were exhausted. It looked like they dressed about 21 kids and several got hurt. There was a pick 6 and a kick off return for a TD but PRP ran for a lot of yards.

It’s third down

So who wants to tell me PRP has similar talent to St X and it’s our great coaching that’s keeping us in the game?

PRP just had a sustained drive right down the field. X keeps blitzing and it’s not working.

Landis all of his personal class going hurry up and going for 2 against an outmanned opponent!

Packing em into the student section tonight!

Or would Douglas rather have Trinity at home in the semifinals?

Auto correct changes everything I type as I submit it. I proofed it before I submitted it.

Thinking Frederick Douglas is cheer Ng for St X to beat Madison Central and a void the Ricks until the final?

But how is X either dominant or not competitive at all? Every game this season except Owensboro has been a running clock or close to it either way.

Serious question. What does it mean when a team blows out every struggling team and gets blown out by every good team it plays?

If last week was an improvement in discipline and penalties I was at a different game. X had multiple (5 or more) personal fouls and offsides penalties. Several personal fouls were offsetting but that’s not an excuse.

I like method 1. Starters don’t get much out of beating the life out of somebody. Get young guys reps as it’s a long season. And don’t get starters hurt in garbage time.
