If you go back a read there yoohoo. Never said anything bad about WA in fact I said basketball season will start early for the Cards if they show up. And of yeah if your going to make reference to my wife's rank make sure you get it right. She has one star now...lol. You kill me!Nah... WA has only 15 players on their roster & none are over 200 pounds. The starters play both ways on every down and never sub out unless there is an injury because it is too hard to get the 4 subs out of their cheerleading uniforms and into their pads. I think all are about 5’7” and they have nobody that has a 40 time under 5.2 or maybe 5.1. I heard they have one lineman that set a school record by squatting 100 pounds this year. They don’t even execute their 4 plays (run left, run right, run middle and pass) well and the coaching staff never played and were all coaching Pee Wee football where they were winless until this year.
The mighty Cardinals should just send their freshman team up and let the Varsity guys have the week off to preserve their strength for a real game and eat extra turkey.
The last time anybody in Jacksonville saw anything this small, slow and undisciplined was when the Colonel was chasing footballaholic32 out of the stands for bringing her a Coke instead of a Pepsi. Good thing the Jax players moves resemble hers and not yours!
Understood you post, its not like the olden days where people would go scout other teams could really say wow what speed what a Defense or Offense. This game besides the turnover factor maybe the Defense that makes that crucial stops, but by film and what I have heard WA is legit hoping good game no injuries, either team with 2 games to play.Glad I gave ya a laugh! Now how’d you know Yoo-hoo is one of my favorite drinks!
I know you didn’t say anything bad. Didn’t say ya did. I just was kinda chuckling about some other posts I’ve seen. A lot of folks get on boards (this one & others) & talk about how great their teams are & how others have never seen anything like it. They talk like no other staffs can coach. Often, these same people don’t know a thing about another team or any team outside of their area. They don’t attend other games or have access to any info, much less film. I just used you as a foil at the end since you often post about the Cards & often referenced your wife’s rank in the past. I figured you could handle it since I am very familiar with the smack talk that goes on within the military and their families.
As for the promotion, congrats! Impressive indeed to be 1 of only 60 General Officers in the USMC. Much respect. I guess that would make her about the 9th or 10th ever female marine to get a star ever? Very cool. Hope to meet you both this Friday. I’ll be at this game.
Back to the game, Jacksonville is a heck of a good team. No doubt. They wouldn’t be in the 3rd round if they weren’t. Those who know me can confirm that I have been very high on them all year. Maybe they’ll chime in. I actually have seen several of this year and last years Jax games on film. That rushing attack is one of the most potent around. Big fellas & speed.
Should be as great game. I give the edge to WA because their defense is much better on film than the Jax defense. Jax offense is very predictable.
Jax isn't my team so no worries on the trash talk or lack thereof. Not faulting them for the schedule, just stating a fact that their schedule has been weak which makes it difficult to gauge how good they are.
Jacksonville's offensive plan may be predictable but it's tough to stop. They have 5 guys with over 250 yards rushing, all of them are burners. Their coaching staff is also pretty good as they have two assistant coaches that have won titles as Head Coaches in NC.
All the Jax talk and they give up 41 points. Sit down big fella
You know what champ..I will agree with you. Jacksonville not very good. WA should beat the brakes off them.All the Jax talk and they give up 41 points. Sit down big fella
That is always a hard game to compare because it is such a rivalry between EA and WA. You know how rivalry games go especially when they play each other every year and there is a familiarity between the two. Ea was able to hang in the first half and played really well. However, WA dominated the 2nd half. That game is always close despite the records.It's hard to judge western alamance because they beat eastern alamance 34-14 while southern Nash just ran through them 61-20 lol
Nope we want all the WA faithful to go ahead and believe what all the gurus are saying that they are the favorites. Cards got their hands full. But you can bet so does WA. They have not seen anything close to Jacksonville all year. Jacksonville has seen two who would beat WA handily. They lost one on a last sec FG and lost they other with seconds left in the game. So sleep if you must. Please take the Cards lightly. Please do!I think Jacksonville's defense is the key. If they can play well then they have a chance. I do know that Havelock would destroy Eastern Alamance, Southern Alamance, and Williams. Havelock beat Jax by 4 with seconds to play. East Duplin is still in the playoffs. So is Havelock. Still say that WA has a weak schedule.
Stop being delusional...you know like everyone else in the state does. It might be a close game but unless they play the game of their lives which very well could happen. Havelock wins. So just stop with that craziness.I doubt seriously WA is taking Jax lightly. Keep ragging on their schedule. All they did was beat the crap out of everyone in front of them. Good to know Jax lost to two teams that would smash WA. Not sure Havelock will have the chance to play them if they luck up and beat Jacksonville. They going to have their hands full with Southern Nash!
Haven’t seen either live so I’m not really the expert to say. Based on what I have seen on film, Havelock is good but not great. Of course film doesn’t always give the best impression. Live is always better.Stop being delusional...you know like everyone else in the state does. It might be a close game but unless they play the game of their lives which very well could happen. Havelock wins. So just stop with that craziness.
Based on film I’ve seen Jax offense is predictable but very very good in the run game. However, their defense is going to struggle against WA offense especially giving up 41 to Sanford whose offense is not as explosive as WA. Truth be told, Sanford had Jax beat if they don’t drop the 2 point conversion. Talk about getting a break lol!
WA also got a break with having a SOS of almost 100.
I would say CARDS offense is predictable only in the sense that you know they will snap the ball. You don't know if it's a run up the middle, off tackle, around the outside or a pass... Now how do you stop that offensive attack, "midstaterules"??
That's a good call, this is going to be a high scoring close game. Almost think it will be less than 7. Still could go either way but I am pulling for the CARDS!!I got western alamance by 7.
I understand what you are saying loud and clear. I'm saying you still have to stop a triple option and defend against the pass all out of the same formations.Watch film! They run towards twins 90% of time and most times that is to the wide side. About the only play they run to the weak side is lead option. Does that mean that it will be easy to stop? Heck no. They are good at what they do.
Don't hate just because your team didn't make it this far. Appreciate the teams that still are playing and quit trying to discredit teams for beating the teams they play. Nobody cares what you think. The kids will decide the outcome on the field and I expect a good game!
You are absolutely correct sir. Did not mean to sound like it would be easy cause it certainly won't be. Knowing where it is going and stopping it are two different things. I'm just reading that WA has no chance against the mighty Jax squad. I think it will be a great close game that either team can win. Both are very good but different teams.I understand what you are saying loud and clear. I'm saying you still have to stop a triple option and defend against the pass all out of the same formations.
