As a fan the first game (while fun to watch) is what it is, a first game. We can't tell squat but only have expectations and assumptions based on what we witnessed. Crest looked great at times, but sloppy too. I think our center is a sophomore and it showed. Our veteran QB and RB fumbled and bobbled the ball more times than I care to count. But those boys were anxious, nervous, and had to shake off the rust. SP was no different. We won't really know what team we got until a few more games under our belt. But with Ashbrook and TCR I think East Burke could look good playing those teams. We got nothing until KM at least.
With that being said, Crest did look great for a first game against a quality opponent. I'm proud of the freshmen kicker. We need to work on protecting willie better, or Cameron will be our new starting QB by week 3.
In other news, I don't have to wear Red and black for the rest of the season which is awesome. It was great seeing everyone, best of luck to SP. We'll meet in November sparring in major injuries for either team and the boys don't get in any trouble.
Great assessment!! This is the same game that I watched and I agree on all points. Can't wait to see how these teams grow throughout the year.
