I’m good with this one being a measuring stick. We need to play a good football team to see where we stand and expose our weaknesses. Playing on a wet field just increases the likelihood of injuries that screw up a season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you, we don’t need kids hurt and Specially get hurt because of a field condition, I’m looking forward to a good game between EF and Joaquin under the Friday night lights, I don’t think EF and Joaquin played a regular season football game sense 91are 92 I believe the last time they played it was a playoff game in Tatum the beat us by penetration, the score was 21-21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to say who wins a scrimmage but we scored more than them and they had no answer for power run. EF will have athletes and QB is good.... Oughta be a good test for Ram defense and our run game will be a good test for their defense that historically doesn’t get real physical You will be surprised at the physicality of EF’s defense and their offensive running game. Last years scrimmage Joaquin did dominate EF physically. No doubt about that and any EF fan that watched it can’t deny it if they are being honest with themselves. But a whole lot has changed on EF’s side since then. Defensive coaching changes, philosophy, scheme, mentality change, position changes, and depth. It won’t be the same as the scrimmage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it won’t. Remember, 4 of that O-line graduated, as did the entire starting backfield from that scrimmage. That was among the top 3 teams we’ve ever fielded. At our level, losing 8 starters on either side of the ball is tough. When you lose that many on each side of the ball and they’re mostly the same kids, you can’t expect to just keep right on rolling. We’re a work in progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were saying the same thing the last two years. Now granted, our team this year is very young, and EF is probably one of the better teams we’ve faced over the past few years. Coach Lawson and his staff thrive in the underdog role. Don’t be surprised if this one is closer than you expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If EF doesn’t beat themselves, they will take it to Joaquin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m saying we don’t get blown out very often. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diehard Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Joaquin is the only place it rains and the sprinklers are on at the same time. Wet football gets hard to throw and catch after while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
