SuperX 89 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 Who we got for this week fellas? I'm not sure what DC kept or lost this year. Being a home game for us I think obviously gives us a better advantage. Hopefully the ground n pound works out well for us this week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoBearsGo 142 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 I'm at a little bit of a loss on this one.. Don't know much about Crockett. I think they lost a lot from last season (QB, WR, OL). This is one of those that can sneak up on you, especially after last week. I'm thinking we will come out strong and ready to get back on track.

Im just hoping their not still holding last weeks loss over their head and still down about it, that is definitely a game you definitely don't need to hold your head about, especially with a younger squad like we have, on a road game. Be proud you can even compete with a squad like the blues like we have for years Ryan4VT and jarhead24219 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Union_Fan 2,156 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 I don't think they'll be the same team as last year. Lost their QB and a very good WR, but they do have the tough, shifty, little back again this year. We just need to contain him in space. They had a speedy and athletic secondary that limited our pass some, but we had no issue running the ball. Bigger, stronger line and backfield this year should equal an easy win. Bears 35 Crockett 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trumpet1988 289 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 I'm not sure exactly what Crockett has. SO i'll go on a limb and say Union 34-14. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FBDevotee 34 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 I predicted that Richlands would defeat Union by a couple of touchdowns last week. After watching the game, I say the Bears defense is better than I originally thought and Union is right in there with last year's team at this point; and the game turned out to be another over-time classic. Therefore this week I'm predicting a lower scoring game than last year's Union vs Davy Crockett. I'll say Union 31 and Davy Crockett 14. Union will run the ball effectively and that makes the game move a little quicker and limits scoring opportunities for both squads. An interesting note for Union so far is the variety of players that have scored. Mitchell leads the team with 4 TDs but I think 7 other players have scored points after just two games. Union is not as explosive as last season but may have more weapons. Certainly Union will experience growing pains throughout the year but I suspect they will be a serious threat come playoff time.

Agree. The difference in defensive effort between Norton and Richlands was night and day. I look forward to seeing how they handle run first teams the rest of the season. Holding Richlands spread to 0 points for a good 3 quarters was impressive to say the least. I would be surprised if we play another team with the Blues passing capabilities. If they can stop the run that well maybe, just maybe, we would be prepared for a Giles or Clarke Co come playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FBDevotee 34 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 I'm still thinking the Bears regular season record this season will be 8-2; but I believe they will be just as serious a playoff team as they were last year by season's end. If the defense can continue to improve, Union will again be a title contender. At this early point in the season, I think we've got Graham, Richlands, and Union all in that category for VHSL D2. I don't see anybody down here contending with Galax for D1 and I wish Abingdon could contend for D3 but I am not yet a believer. The Falcons need to beat up on Richlands to show me.

goose111874 967 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 Who's Union's other loss going to be? Central? Maybe gate city, we were much better last year and should have lost. Letcher played us tough last year also, but when you go to Kentucky you also have to play the refs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose111874 967 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Not much of a game, pretty much just lined up and drove it down their throat. Would like to see Turner let his boy open it up a little more though, the kid has been playing pretty good ball. Also I was glad a certain DB had a good game after tough game last week.

Union_Fan 2,156 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Crockett had a few good plays called back due to penalties, but definitely not the team they had last year. Their fan turnout surprised me a little. They brought about as many as Burton did. I would like to see Mitchell get the ball more, but he could have sat this game out and the score would have been the same. Impressed by the speed of 17. He really needs to get the ball in space more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperX 89 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 They had him doubled up almost all night, we didn't throw the bubble 1 time, if we did I don't remember seeing it, but the DBs were playing tight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
