KC needs to worry about all the weapons we have on offense. We don’t have 2 or 3 players to carry our team. Lobos have 8 to 10 players that will be utilized. Our defense bends but doesn’t break, with our rotation as deep as it is we will win by 10.

Aww Jesus..... PLEASE don't do this. I understand the confidence and all and believe me that's great, but don't poke the damn bear. Let us at least run past him while he's half-a sleep!

Just cause you don't like the prediction doesn't make be it a troll post. For the record I pulling for the Lobos .

Well, sorta. 

If he offered a reason why he felt that way, it would seem far less like a troll post. And if he hadn't been banned for trolling in the past, that would've helped his case too.

I’m gonna have to confirm when I get home but I’m almost positive 250 of that came against Klein Forest.

They were helped by playing three teams with less than three wins, where they completely shut those teams down (like 60 and below every game).

With all do respect where is your analysis?

 I have been keeping an eye on Klein Collins all year and I don’t see 1 weakness honestly.  Show me one.  They can throw, run, and they play nasty defense.  Just go look at their games most points they have given up is 22.  That is phenomenal considering they played two teams still in playoffs and gave both those teams their ONLY loss. Lamar and Atascocita.

As I’ve said I think we can keep it close with our offensive style(theirs is similar)  and if we can somehow manage to sustain drives and wear out their massive dline then maybe get some points late 3rd and 4th qtr and pull one out.  We simply cannot give their defense 3 and outs.  We must execute on offense and at least get field goals early.

Maybe 2 field goals in the first half I am predicting a score like  14-6 at half with kc in lead.  They will be very very difficult to score on so special teams will be HUGE factor if it’s close.  We will need to pin them deep EVERY punt and not give them short field.  Kessler better bring his lunch box.

 2nd half is where we must step it up and get a big play or two and sustain some drives to keep them off the field and wear their d down.  Honestly this is the only scenario I see us winning but it ain’t a impossible scenario just have to execute.  I think this team is at its peak and still has its best game ahead of it and hopefully we get it this week!

another huge factor in this game is our dline vs their oline.  They got some hogs and a hell of a RB.  We have two rotations on the dline and hopefully we can keep them fresh and get pressure in backfield throughout the game.  Any other year I would say we had no chance to stop them but with a lot of depth up front we got a shot.

thats my analysis.  I hope I’m wrong I will be waiting for your analysis of my analysis lol

 

 

KC special teams are not strong.  Longview has a decided advantage in this phase of the game.  It is very likely that Longview will block a fg/pat attempt.  Longview kicker/punter much bigger leg than KC.  In playoffs, Longview has kicked off 20 times with only 3 of them returned for a total of 33 yards.  Throughout the season, punts averaging 39 yards or so with only one punt returned.  

I honestly believe that this should be a close game and that special teams could likely be the difference.

[JohnnyFootball]

Well let's hope it ends in our favor this time. Our last 3 seasons have ended with missed FGs.

[Mr. P]

My take...

Defense: Up front, don't try to match power for power. Utilize our speed advantage to keep plays hemmed inside. WE NEED TURNOVERS. The secondary needs their best game. Don't give up the big play. Missed tackles sink 'ships. K-C's offense seems like it tries to lull you with repetition: motion zone-read, motion bubble screen, motion zone-read, motion bubble screen, etc. and suddenly: motion zone-read PLAY-ACTION DEEP PASS OVER THE MIDDLE OHMYGODTOUCHDOWN! 

Offense: Utilize every weapon, but mix it up and don't let K-C pin their ears back. A.C. in zone-read. Play-action quick hitters to Brown over the middle. Mix it up with the FBs inside and the HBs off tackle, then roll Haynes out in run-pass options to take away the K-C size advantage on the interior line. Make those fat boys run!  

 

This game was won during the summertime. The better-conditioned, more physical team will win.

True but it hasn’t hurt them any this season we gotta keep it close

Some good stuff

if you watch their game highlights on max preps you see on each one 2-3 very good pass plays and usually one goes for td but they only throw 6-10 times a game.  They literally run 7 or 8 of every 10 plays so you know what’s coming.  What u said about the big pass is huge!  Most plays they are running it’s what they do we need to find a way to get them out of their rythym and only way is to slow down their very good running attack.

if you watch them they block very well so defenders have to be smart and not run into the block because they don’t miss.

 

I like what u said about offense.  Will we be willing to adjust if they stop our running backs?  My fear is we won’t be able to get that extra 1-3 yards after initial contact BC our rbs are so small.  Put in AC and go at them like we used to do with Petey Robertson.

1.) I hope above hope that the Lobo coaches are emphasizing this. K-C's linemen have excellent footwork. Most are commenting on their size, but you're absolutely right: they get to the right place and are superb blockers. About as good as it gets in high school ball. 

2.) Miyamoto Musashi said the greatest shame in defeat is to lose without using all of your weapons. If K-C manages to bottle up our smaller backs, we need A.C. to go Tebow/Belldozer/18-wheeler on them. No reason to hold back now, it's do or die.

Yeah, it looks like they were able to get some things going on offense, they just couldn't stop K-C's offense.

Watching video of KC game vs. Stony Point, SP ran the ball well at times and one of the reasons that they only ended up with 60 yds rushing was all the sacks. If Longview will stay committed to the running game, they will put up some yards against KC. Their LBs are very agressive so counters and traps should be effective as well as a precise intermediate passing game. On defense, Longviews off side end must stay disciplined and provide effective back side pursuit, because Spiller likes to cut back. Effective pressure on their QB and attention to detail by the Longview DBs will slow down the KC passing game. The KC QB can play William Tell if you give him time to stand there, he is very accurate. I have only watched two KC games on video, but I have to ask: How  many holding penalties are called on their Oline per game? They hold A LOT, and we are not talking about your garden variety "there if holding on every down" type of holds either, they are arms extended, wrapping them up holds. If the officials don't allow that craziness, I believe that Longview's depth in the Dline will allow them to put lots of pressure on the QB and cause mistakes. Good luck Lobos, I will be watching the game online.

They do seem to take a lot of penalties. At least against every team with a pulse they did.
