BEAUFORT AT NORTH AUGUSTA POLL 11/12/21

[BEAUFORTEAGLESFAN]

I forgot to post also about this game that in the only Common Opponent between these 2 teams, Beaufort beat Bluffton 45-12 and North Augusta beat Bluffton 31-12. Does anyone else have any input about this game?

GO BEAUFORT EAGLES BEAT THOSE NORTH AUGUSTA YELLOWJACKETS!!!!

I have watched the Beaufort Hudl game film from last Friday vs S. Florence. I also watched the last 2 game prior to that of Beaufort also. Obviously seen all the NA games all year.
Beaufort Scouting Report:
This game is VERY even on paper. Defense:
Strength: Beaufort DL is outstanding, Emon is unblockable, plus #32 is a baller on defense.
Weakness: Secondary appears to blow coverages at times with trips looks and smaller DB's except 1

Offense:
Strength: QB experience, Lefty, solid 8-15 yard passing game, 1 main receiver, solid OL at Tackles
Weakness: RB tips plays by alignment, up the middle blocking not great, RB speedy but side to side

Special Teams:
Strength: Willing to take risk/run fakes, discipline LOS no penalties, Kicker consistent/accurate
Weakness: KO's returnable, Punter inconsistent, Kicker limited FG range, top end likely 42

Analysis: Wide side run game, intermediate passing game need to work to score on offense. H-back/TE is
going to be key, made several big plays vs S. Florence blocking and recieving. Will be trick plays
On defense need to pressure Sr QB, force action sideways, and force turnovers, NA has 13 fumbles
lost this season, most in 4A coming into the game.

Not going to give away NA secrets or analysis, but I will say the long drive over to NA from Beaufort is long, boring, and can lull a team to sleep with no direct route between the schools. Beaufort will not have to worry about disrespectful fans, we hold them accountable. NA played the toughest non-region schedule in the state, ALL 5 teams it has lost to this season have advanced to round 2 in the playoffs, including a 5A team (Ridge View), #1 in 3A in Georgia (Burke County), and #2 in 4A Greenwood, so they are battle tested. The long ride, the even talent on paper, both being 2 seeds, both with stout DL's, solid running games, and both having Sr QB's, and the fact that the game is in N. Augusta is likely the only reason I think I give NA the edge. I'll say NA by a FG (because they have a P5 D1 Kicker commit who is #1 in SC with true 60 yard range, multiple 50+ yard FG's this season), but should be a great and close game.

FINAL SCORE PREDICTION: NA - 31 Beaufort 28

Very nice post. Beaufort beat two 6A playoff teams from Georgia in Effingham County and Richmond Hill. We also beat the #1 ranked 4A school in Georgia, Benedictine Catholic. We held them to a season low 23 points, even less that the top ranked 7A school in Florida did when they played them. Our other 2 non-Region games were against Oceanside Collegiate, a second round playoff team, and West Ashley who lost in the 1st round of the 5A playoffs. We went 4-1 against that schedule. We played a very tough non-Region schedule that hopefully helps us in the postseason.

As for Beaufort, the 2 games prior to last week were against teams that, well to put it bluntly, aren't any good. What you saw there was window dressing. We have played lights out in some games this season, and what is best described as inconsistant most of the time. I come to this game not knowing what to expect, other than 2 tough, hard-nosed football teams fighting for the same thing, respect. Now that all of the seniors on the field are faced with thie possible end to their playing career, I look for a determined effort from both squads.

And yes, it is a bit of a drive to North Augusta, and that may be one of the determining factors. I am stoked to see your turf field. When we played there in 2013, the field was a mess that night. Love that more and more districts are going to turf. And with these new turf fields, injuries aren't as bad as they were back 20 to 30 years ago when they were like playing on cement.

Hope to see a good game where the players decide the winner, not the zebras. Also hope nobody gets hurt, and that we all have a great time watching the sport that we all love so much.

My prediction: The team with the most points after 48 minutes gets the big W.


OK Penguin....time to hate me, like Plato said.

"We held them to a season low 23 points, even less that the top ranked 7A school in Florida did when they played them."

The Florida team that beat those clowns from Savannah, was Columbus High from Miami. They are not top-ranked anything. Benedictine was their only win in their first 4 games. They don't even crack the top 40 in Florida. Stop taking liberties with the truth, Penguin...if you gonna preach it, live it.
Hypocrisy. Smells the same everywhere.

Fear The Fox....Fixed On Six...for Jack #60 and Gage #4.


Go Eagles!

Excuse me, I was wrong, Columbus High out of Miami Florida is an 8A school. They are the defending Florida Class 8A Champions after defeating Apopka High 21-20. You want the truth? That is the truth, and apparently, like that other obnoxios character, YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!

Benedictine Catholic is the #1 ranked 4A school in the State of Georgia. Again, that is a FACT. Just like your team, they can only play teams that are on their schedule. Columbus High was the defending state champions when that game was signed. I am not going to start dispariging anyone's schedule based upon Region mandated games. Yes, our Region has 4 teams that are not much more than creampuffs. We cannot control that and are mandated to play them. The point is the Benedictine is a very, very, good football team. And we managed to defeat them. Again sir, just the FACTS!

Chill out 'secret squirrel'... I just pointed out ...you know...current facts.

You were talking history...just like DF's 5 consecutive titles...that means nothing right now. We are talking about what teams do this season. Until DF has a six-peat in hand... its one game at a time. At some point, DF will lose- might be this week against Cane Bay. Never know. I am sure you will be cheering CB on Friday. lol

Crank your neck back in...its just a game.

And you would be wrong again. I know very little about Cane Bay, have no interest in them, and I do not cheer for teams that I know nothing about. I will be cheering ONLY for my Eagles on Friday night, and check all of the other scores after the game. I have no interest in any other game, save the West Florence Vs. South Aiken game. To be the best, we have to beat the best. Right now, North Augusta is the best. We will deal with the aftermath of that game starting Saturday morning. Either return to practice, or turn in your gear.

I give this little one all the pecans he wants. We have 2 trees in the backyard.

I really appreciate all this extra free scouting report on top of what is already known.
