I agree. It seems like when we got ahead by two scores the play calling got extremely conservative. Other than that, Pippin called a good game. I was happy to see our D line get pressure and make plays late which means the coaches have done well with conditioning. I know we're young but we'll have to really get after it if we plan on winning next week.

The effort was much better and it paid off. SA should do well. The SA qb is a baller. I can see him doing big things in the future. It gets no easier as the loaded Gaffney Indians come to town. All I want to see is the whole team from top to bottom give there best effort and we'll see what happens. Can't ask for more than that.
Yes. I just tell him as long as he feels like he and his team have given their best effort, I can't complain. He seemed very receptive to that comment. They are a young team. Their best will be required to sustain success. He has a great group of kids though. Great attitudes. It was good to see them use different players and do different things.EmeraldCityEagle98 wrote:I agree. It seems like when we got ahead by two scores the play calling got extremely conservative.
