Has a team showed up and said you aren't running the ball and made them throw? I have heard a lot about the running game but not so much the pass i'm sure with the record they have they aren't one dimensional just wanted to hear from people that have seen them play. We do throw from time to time, but not much. We were 0-3 Friday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think that has been the plan for everybody the last 11 weeks. I have been hearing from some parents that the reason the game is moved to Saturday is so they can get an extra day of practice. Word is James Colley has been back on campus helping install the Tiger Air Raid offense. The plan is to pass at least 35 times this week. Colley's only request was to have some of the old Sandlick field brought up and put on the sideline. He wants to be able to draw up the plays in the sand with 5 leaves, 4 bottle caps, a penny, and a cigarette bud like old times. swva_havok_fan, big ugly vol and rvtne216 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew that they would bring Colley in for the pass attack. I mean he was an offensive genius. Good thing they have a Haysi boy as the QB I mean Colley's offense was probably bread into him.

I am sure that Richlands will try to load the box but RV is not running out of a 2 TE full house so the only way to get the box loaded is to leave someone uncovered.

Even in 10 personal (1 back 4 receivers) Richlands can easily go cover 0 and press all 4 guys out wide and leave 7 in the box. That leaves 5 to block 7 which is tough to do. If Ridgeview goes 3x1 which they like to do a lot that brings the DB covering #3 closer to the box making him another run defender. Ridgeview also loves split backs which would in turn bring an 8th body in the box. If you run a spread offense but can’t hurt anyone with the pass it’s not hard to stop the run. With that being said they still have to tackle the big kid and catch the quick one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RV is without a doubt a better running than passing team but yes they can and have hurt team loading up the box.....add to that the coverage mentioned would leave Adkins in 1 on 1 coverage out of the backfield vs a LB which is a quick way to pad your passing stats. All in all it should be a heck of a game. Both coaching staffs are solid game planners will be interesting what new wrinkles each team comes up with for the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaloSports2 35 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 There will be a big crowd. People who normally would have to work late on Friday and couldn't make the drive will now come and more people will come because the weather is supposed to be nicer. We had a terrible crowd there last Friday and I know no one expected the game to be that good, but the weather was terrible and probably hurt. Also we keep talking about Ridgeview not having a very good passing game, but I think it is better or could be better than people know. The OC pretty much refuses to throw the ball and we have very capable and actually very good receivers. I believe even if we had D1 prospects at WR he still wouldn't throw the ball much. Actually I'm not sure he would throw it to Randy Moss. haha I've watched every game and I love this team, but it doesn't take even a football expert to understand that we is very predictable. People sit in the stands and tell you what play is coming next. If Richlands has the athletes to stop or even just match up with our players, it won't take much of scheme to stop them. The way we beat people is we are just more talented or bigger than them. When we play people that are as big and talented. Well Abingdon is an example. We haven't played anyone else who is.

I agree defensively I think it will be a chess match by both teams, but offensively Ridgeview will run the same things over and over. If you can line up and stop them you will beat them because they won't change and there will be no creativity. big ugly vol and Jags52 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jarhead24219 440 Report Share Posted November 14, 2018 The game changer when UNION played RICHLANDS came when BAILEY hit JENKINS for that long touchdown.ADKINS is still growing and getting better, but SEXTON will be your star of the game ,if he is given a chance,good luck to both programs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigWinners 1,642 Report Share Posted November 14, 2018 Ridgeview does a great job of getting both backs, Adkins and Sexton, involved in the passing game. It's not just screens and swings either, both backs (at least against Union) were running routes like slants and out routes, angle routes to the middle and even more complex route trees. maybe they won't use those against Richlands, but they've shown they can. Sexton killed Union on third down out of the backfield or lined up in the slot. jarhead24219 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
