Can you say 'workhorse'? I've seen all their district games and most of the others and my hope is they haven't overworked this very tough horse. I would have liked to have seen him get the 4th quarter off last night. Playing on Sat instead of Fri will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ31 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 I'll agree.... I was wondering why in the world they felt the need to give him 56 carries in a game that was 26-0 before SS ever scored. It was 0-0 at the end of the 1st quarter, but it was never close after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigerpride22 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Originally posted by RJ31 Originally posted by Living4ChristWith the exception of the Marshall game, Hallsville has done very well against one-dimensional teams this year. I know that Smith is a great back, but nobody has answered my question....From what formation do they typically run the ball? Everyone in the whole house knows that Smith is going to be the offense. His season low is 165 yards (I'm pretty sure). He's averaging about 220 yards per game. And this is with everyone knowing exactly what we will do. Hallsville may win, BUT THEY WILL NOT STOP ANTOWOINE SMITH! ok with 56 carries in one game, he better have 220 yards at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bleedsbluengold24 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 When our OC has chanced to turn to the part of his playbook that contains all the passing plays, we have been very successful. Long, short, slant, crossing, didn't matter. We have had much success this year throwing the ball. Faulkner has proven to be quite the stud at QB. Is is also a good running back, huntng for and finding holes in the lilne, usually getting good yardage after being hit. We have two fullbacks that I am concvinced could carry our team into the stadium on their shoulders. Couple of times against SS refs called the plays dead with Johnson still on his feet and most of their defense hanging off oh him. NL has more than one diminsion. We just don't see it often or nearly enough. As far as everyone in the house knowing Antowoine is going to get the ball, you're right, they do. He got 347 yards against SS with "everyone in the house" knowing. In fact, the joke going around the NL side was that he had changed his last name to "Smithagain" because of how often the announcer said "Smith again on the carry." No prediction.

Kinda makes me think of three years ago when Hallsville played Palestine in the first round....Adrian Peterson ran for like 220, but Hallsville barely won.

Bobcat1976 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Hallsville had real trouble with only one team.. Marshall Mavs... The Mavs have a multi-dementional running game. They run 3 different backs at you from all different angles (great speed and quickness) Then their QB has averaged over 6 yrds per carry all season and rushed for about 12 or more TDs. The best one-dimentional running team Hallsville faced was Jacksonville. Carmon Boyd-Anderson ran for about 1800 yards this season and Hallsville held him in check. Anyway, this should be a good game and I'm a Bobcat fan and I'm picking them by 10pts. 24 - 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldRush Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Survia could have played vs. Pine Tree, in fact had one attempt. Hollon was doing well so Survia got a rest. He will be ready!:smileybanger: Question: Why Mesquite for both D II games? Was there not a stadium closer that both teams could agree on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you say 'workhorse'? can you say, "They have no one else"?? That's idiotic. He's their best player on offense. Faulkner is a weapon, TE Robinson is a weapon, and WR Clayton was a D1 recruit until a heart condition was discovered that sidelined him. They also have a talented offensive line. Smith doesn't play any defense either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NL went up 13-0 and then quit playing. I talked to some of the players and they said they took the win for granted against Lindale and it bit them. They assumed that they were going to cakewalk past Lindale into the playoffs. Big mistake. Got a question for you, sarge..... Is Bauman as good at basketball as he is at catching passes? :evil2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 I agree....both teams lost their first game of the season by one point, or else they would be 17-3 as well. Good point! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HvilleCat23 Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 I'm pullin out for my boys offence is amazing and defence is doing alot better. They'll have to stop the ol' running game of NL, but look how they took care of that in the kilgore, jacksonville game. Hope they can get the job done! ill be pulling out for the cats! lots of points will be scored unless hallsville cant stopped the backs. :happy65:IF we can Hville-42 NL28:happy65: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bordertown Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Originally posted by Bobcat1976 Border... do you have any stats on the NL players. Give me a scoop on how they play. What type of offense / defense. Who are their key players? Sorry for the delay in responding. Smith is obviously the engine to the offense. Game was 5 weeks ago & I have slept a bit. At first of THS game, the QB put use to sleep at being very average. But after he adjusted to THS speed, he did quite well and threw several very nice passes. Their line is very nice sized. Not sure if it was as big as Mt Pleasant, but work very well as a group. North Lamar wants to run. But if you sell out to stop Smith, they will burn you with a pass. Their defense is fundamentally sound. Overall this is not a team of stars. I think Coach Felty does the most with the least amount of talent. May be the slowest team we faced. but like I said Felty did the most with the least. On paper should North Lamar win - no in my opinion. But in North Lamar's case the sum is greater than the whole.
