94 APPY DAWG 39 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 I hate to say it and I hope I'm wrong but I can see this game getting out of hand quickly. The wildcat offense is mediocre at best and the secondary for Union really scares me. MW-42 Union 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main things that caught my eye are that they are focused on the T and may be underestimating the atmosphere a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoBearsGo 142 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 Biggest thing that stood out to me about that article was how the MW coach talked about Lester. I thinking he’s looking at the wrong player. Not knocking him by any means but Lester is no threat all when he’s in the game. He’s just too inexperienced and undersized.

JDHoss 249 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 Don't see the Bears winning this one, but if MW comes up to BSG thinking they will roll over them, they will be in for a surprise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Union_Fan 2,155 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 The article mentions the "Wing T" which is a different offense from what Union actually runs. That may just be a typo. It also mentions our home winning streak dating back to 2011, and the record of our opponents. Both of which are wrong. However, if their coach actually believes all of the complimentary things he says about the Bears then that could be a good sign that he's worried. And like someone else mentioned, along with the Prep Picks crew on WCYB, I think they will be a little surprised by the atmosphere. I don't know if it will be enough to rattle a victory from them or not, but it will help. Bears have a tall task ahead of them tonight, but one thing has been consistent with them, and that's the ability to "play up" to good competition.

SXSW 557 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 Ouch! I hate to see injuries ruin the season for these kids who have worked for months and years to get the opportunity to be in the spotlight but injuries are part of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoBearsGo 142 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 I had not heard that Lester was hurt. It must’ve happened in practice or maybe in a JV game. I don’t understand why if we were serious about him playing some quarterback we would have him playing in JV games. I still say Qualls is our best option with Mitchell in the wildcat occasionally. I think tonight’s game will help us come playoff time. 94 APPY DAWG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

94 APPY DAWG 39 Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 Good win for the bears. Take away 20 fumbles and the score should have been 28-0 at the half. I missed it bad saying 42-14 MW I ate my crow at the game haha. I still don't trust our secondary although Qualls really impresses me and Mitchelle as well. I noticed a few changes in secondary and i liked it. Was not impressed at all with MW and think many SWVA teams could roll them. Last thing I hope the two kids that were injured are ok.

Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 That was a man's win tonight by Union. Took on a team with a superior numbers advantage, down themselves, and held their own.

Unionguy_2017 288 Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 I'd love to know how many total fumbles Union had tonight. The defense was absolutely lights out, including the secondary (outside of about 2 plays). The offense played really well against a speedy and big MW defense. Very impressive BigWinners 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 I was totally wrong. Union controlled LOS on both sides of the ball and was able to run the ball at will. If the MW QB doesn't go down early on first play it's closer, but if Union doesn't tun it over six times (yes, six times) it's an easy win for Bears.

I think we had a stretch in the 2nd quarter were we got 5 sacks on 6 plays. I'm also happy that we attempted a few deep passes to back the D off a little.

GoBearsGo 142 Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 I agree with everything that’s been said. Union really dominated from start to finish, just couldn’t hang onto it. The defense was spectacular! Big win! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
