Tid_Bit 10 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 I would say that against richlands they will run the back up offense. As in backing way up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EH31 2,532 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 I think if a team has tall recievers then they will do good against richlands, if they still have the same defense they had against pulaski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouse 10 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 I dont think it will matter if Abingdon has tall WR's or not. Richlands front four will be on the QB before he knows what hit him. Trust me I know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FBDevotee 34 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 I too think Richlands will beat Abingdon by a significant margin. The Blues deserve the top area ranking this year and I think Southwest District football, in general, is much stronger than Highlands District football. Â But the spread offense actually makes it harder for most teams to put pressure on your QB IMO. Fewer defensive players can line-up in the trench or box if you maintain coverage on the flankers and wide receivers. With fewer rush/blitz combinations available to the defense, QB protection can be more straight forward. If a team is going to throw 30 times a game, I think it's more protective of the QB to go from the spread than most any other formation. If you think about it, if you keep a linebacker and safety back plus single cover each eligible receiver, you can only send four rushers at the QB. I think that's one of the important aspects of the spread. It keeps teams honest on defensive. If you have any defensive player who's a little soft, he'll quickly find himself on an island. Obviously the down side to the spread is that the QB makes critical decisions every play and turnovers via interception are much more likely than with other more conventional systems.

You should be able to under throw the ball to Asby and let him come back and go up for it...but it hasn't happened. He has plays where he looks really good and you can tell there is a lot of potential there and he has good height, but he's very inconsistant.

bluekick 11 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 [ QUOTE ] richlands corners are both 5'11".......not that short  [/ QUOTE ]  That's what there height is on the roster, which is always exagerated. Neither of them are an inch over 5'9"... and that's being generous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortt4rhs 10 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 When your playing a team like Abington it's important to establish an early lead. I'm sure their players will be coming into the came looking to pull of what could be the biggest upset of the year. If they are running the spread offense, it may be more difficult to get a good pass rush and leave time for a reciever to come open down field. If Richlands can stop the big plays and not allow anything that will boost the Falcon's confidence look for another decisive win from the BLUES. GOOD LUCK GUYS!!!!!
