Totally agree with Ryan on this game.

 GC's defense is a good unit,  but they will get worn down as long as their offense is unable to move the ball.  Abingdon's offense is just too good.  GC may hang in there for a short time,  but in the end the game will end up a lot like last year. 

But when GC gets Collier back in a couple of games,  they will be a better team.

As always in GC,  they play hard,  but just were not able to move the ball with any consistency without Collier at QB,  and having all the 3 & outs just wears a defense down,  and against a offense like the Falcons have,  that's a bad recipe.

It did sound like GC gave Asbury fits in the first half. I have a feeling that won't be enough against Abingdon. I like the Falcons. 

I'm just worried that these difficult early games will have GC nice and mad when they get Collier back in time for Union.

I was a little surprised when getting game updates this past Friday of  the GC vs Richlands game but then just chalked it up to first game jitters.  I will say this.  Don't sleep on John Battle they competed to the last snap and if they can fix a couple of things they could be very competitive.  Union, you could be right.  If Collier is back by the time yall play them GC could be chomping at the bits.  I still say GC has a murders row the first 6 weeks of their schedule but I have no doubt GC will be back competing in the near future.

I thought this last season when we got them in week 6.  I figured they would spank us to be honest.  But we came out with the W.  :)

I'm not involved as much as I used to be so I can't say for sure either way. But, IF it is true, the only explanation that I can think of would be to let Reed get a feel for doing it. Post game the 2 of them sit down and go through the play calling. Maybe Reed's just doing it for games that AHS is heavily favored and a bad play call doesn't cost them the game. That's all just pure speculation on my part.

No pass coverage? GC had 3 picks with one going for a TD.

Two of those were balls that hit Howie dead in the hands and were tipped up and intercepted by GC. The one to the LB was straight up JLA making a bad throw, but the first two were no fault of his own.
