Great win

It's way too early to worry about RPI. I said in a different post, normally in the past they don't post RPI until week 6 or 7. It'll only get more accurate after that.

someone told me to take it easy on butlers defense. Was told they have a couple freshman they have been rotating at Lb on varsity? That makes much more sense as far as physicality.

@mp2k8 have you heard they are super young at some spots? I know they start 3 sophomore/juniors in the secondary.

Yeah I heard the same thing, the defense is young and had to fill in some spots with younger players. I did hear the same thing about the secondary which is amazing considering they don’t get much pressure with their front four at all. Weddington’s QB had time to deliver the ball for sure.

The issue is the offense doesn’t help the defense. With Hales the offense can protect the defense with the running attack with the wing t and different formations. This allowed the defense to rest while the offense did their work. The offense now is a spread offense with four receivers with barely any shifting or motion. Lawerence isn’t a threat to run and they pass 60 percent of the time so the run is easier to defend especially with a talented front seven. When the offense has a few three and outs the defense is gassed and it feels like Butler barely touched the ball.

If you remember the 2013 Butler team, they pretty much was out of the spread no huddle with ARW as a dual threat QB. They had the linemen and QB for it and it worked. The new staff is using a similar scheme but it’s not a fit. If Lawerence is indeed out the backup is a dual threat which does open the running game but definitely losing a lot from the passing game

AC Reynolds have struggled a little bit

We play three more spread teams this season including Havelock. Havelock is gonna be a challenge for sure. They got I think 6 D1 athletes including a D1 receiver. Props to Tarboro for scheduling such a good team. The QB y'all have will be special he's only a sophomore.

The Rams have a stout football team. Averaging over 50 points a game and giving up around 10. They have a wideout that is really good. I saw him play and he is very difficult to tackle. He runs like Lamar Jackson, juking , stopping and starting and very fast. I think their receiving core is going to be a nightmare for us.

Only way that slips out your mouth is if you regularly say it. Ain’t no way that’s one of the first words you think of to call a kid if you never say it😂

He should never call a game and honestly shouldn’t be around HS football or kids anymore. He should pay his couple dollars and watch like a spectator moving forward, that’s as close to the game he should ever be.

Some of these announcers on NFHS have zero business with a microphone anywhere near them. This guy in particular was brutal. Better without out any commentary.

You and me both. I’m a black man but I don’t even get mad anymore…it’s in the fabric of this country. The elections every couple years can show us that. Look how they are talking about Haitians online past couple weeks smh lol

Good win creek boyz.

I think I read this team has 40 seniors? That defense sure looks like it, they are fast and physical!

Ashbrook doesn’t have enough offense to beat Crest. Ashbrook’s front seven is decent, the linebacker #5 is a stud, but their secondary is trash. Those guys playing 25-30yds deep trying not to get beat over the top. Lloyd is going to kill that.
Ashbrook has one of their better teams in recent memory, plenty of talent, and I believe the Brook will beat SP this year after what I seen after watching them against Hibriten. The GreenWave are not well rounded enough as a team to beat Crest nor KM. The Brook is going to give SP fits though. Ashbrook should finish 8-2 this season. Ashbrook fans suddenly popping up out the blue on social media trash talking not realizing the light they are running toward is attached to a couple locomotives rolling downhill with no brakes…

Llyod hasn't killed a defense all year?!?! Nothing is going to change Friday. I'm not a Ashbrook fan I'm a Football Fan. That locomotive has been broken all season. Hopefully they can fix it before Friday but i dont see it happening. but good luck
