Always good to see you on here blackflag79. I hope the good Lord is willing for you to get to as many games as you want. 

I always respect everything you have to share. It's always nice to see people talking football instead of just trying to get under another team's fan's skin. Smack talk can be fun, but the last few years it's gone too far at times. 

Your post is definitely "right on" point. We will have many players going both ways which will put us in tough positions later in games.  However,  I don't think it will affect us as much as it did in years past.  We had actually, in the last 5 or so years, not had to play many guys both ways, so it really helped us from wearing down in the 4th quarter. It will be interesting to see how we will handle that situation. 

Gilmer isn't exactly a great team to have to play our 1st game against.  They will be the best team we probably play all year. They deserve all the accolades they are given going into the season. That being said, they will be a great test for us. We probably will look different than Bear teams of old. I could see us throwing a lot of different things at the Buckeyes, but then again, we might be very vanilla to start the season,  especially with young players at key positions.  I am excited to see how much better our defense is, especially going up against one of the best offenses around. I'm excited to see how our offensive line does against a really good Buckeye defense. I'm interested in seeing how Jonny uses our QB's. We actually have 4 players on varsity that can play QB. I, personally,  don't enjoy teams switching out QB's, but in the Bears case it could actually benefit them, depending on the circumstances. 

I won't be arrogant and predict a Bear victory. Win or lose we can come away with positives. On paper we really don't stand a chance, but games aren't won or lost on paper and in my many, many years I've seen teams pull off that miracle, so I can hope for one Thursday night. 😀

Always nice to see you posting as well 😊

6'1" fb takes handoff at LOS takes 2 steps, dives and evidently cant make it 6 feet..... seems legit

You forgot to add 6’1 man child who made it to the NFL. Find another carry in his high school career that he was held for less than a yard 👀

I was there, on home side, looking right down the LOS.  Looked to me like he made it.  🤷‍♂️  But I wasn’t in the the conversation between officials & Traylor.  😁

Traylor was all up in it. I am pretty sure he showed them where to mark it 😂

Pretty persuasive guy (and good coach).... wouldn't of been a college recruiting coordinator and now head coach (also killing recruiting) if he wasn't!

I mean we still had to go like 80 yards with ni time outs lol. Come on man y’all got beat on a draw play that went for like 30 yards how does that happen. Mack couldn’t even get in a stance he was so tired, I always thought they should of faked it to Mack and let the QB keep it cause everyone knew who was getting the ball.
