Coleman missed the first 8 games, while Sanchez and States each missed 3 games during the regular season. Ford's run game really suffered without Seabolt vs Godley. QF is very good in the trenches and this were the game will be won or lost. Shirley and Sanchez have been nearly unblockable lately, while Steiger has been a handful for opposing OTs all year. With MLBs Sanchez and Coleman both healthy Ford's run defense has greatly improved.

HornetSenior Posted November 11, 2022 Author Share Posted November 11, 2022 I'll take Quinlan Ford to pull the upset. Van Alstyne runs a similar offense to Caddo Mills, who Ford held to 45 yards rushing on 21 carries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Van Alstyne went 1-3 in Non-district with Losses to Pottsboro, Sulphur Springs, and Anna. Quinlan Ford had only 1 offensive Starter return from last year and had a QB change after starting 0-2. Ford also had a few players that were defensive first team all district last year miss many games this year.

HearEmaGrowlin Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 I was looking at possible locations for next week. If Carthage plays VA, most likely it’d be like Mesquite or Garland and if it’s QF we could be back in Lindale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brand new stadium and almost dead center. Should be big enough to hold a 2nd round 4A D2 matchup where both teams are traveling around 90-95 miles. But they would have to adjust the locker room situation to handle 70 kids from Carthage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus you have to get into the metroplex.... I agree with Mt. Pleasant. What about Corsicana? We used to play there pretty regular. Lindale would be perfect for QF.
