Hokie101 153 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 This is a must win for GC in my opinion. I don’t know anything about Marion this year. I was a little surprised on last weeks performance vs GW so who knows what will happen. It’s homecoming for GC and I believe the win streak starts this week.

Plywood_King 510 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 Marion's defense has been stout against downfield run-oriented teams and their offense has been anemic most of the season. If the season thus far has been an indication, if GC scores 21 points, they win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane pride 0 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 Offense looked better against Lebanon and Marion had 3 starters out. Should be a close game especially if Marion continues to use the talented receivers they have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lebanon's defense is the reason why Marion won that game. Lebanon was only the second team this year to allow more than seven points from Marion's offense (they scored nine points in two games by getting safetys). In fact, if you remove garbage time and defensive scores from the equation, Marion was only averaging 8 points per game before Lebanon, while allowing 23 points, which isn't bad considering that they were turning the ball over four times a game. I've seen every game that Marion's this season and I have to say, I don't believe the narrative that Marion has suddenly found an offense, and I don't say that to crap on Marion or Lebanon, but it was the traditional "Marion homecoming shootout" that the Canes play every year, and I don't think based on what I saw that their offense is that good or that their defense is that bad.

I definitely agree on Lebanon's defense, it's not good. I mean to hold a 38 to 34 lead with 40 seconds to go and give up a long drive ending with a td, which included a 15 yard penalty on the pioneers is just bad.
