Sallies Gwynn did exactly what was asked of him last week, manage the game. Both teams played ran the ground attack offense so he didn't need to drop back and throw a bomb to win. I feel this weekend will be the same scenario. Smyrna has had the philosophy not to at players both ways, I think that goes out the window saturday. You want your best players on the feild as much as you can in a championship game.
I'm rooting for Smyrna in this one but picking the Sals. No score prediction. I also believe that if Smyrna is gonna win the championship, they HAVE to do it this year. Talking to a friend of mine last Friday at the game who has no side in game, even with all the players returning next year for Smyrna, if any teams are gonna figure that offense out, it's the northern teams, sallies, pen, Middletown, concord. The teams who plays top notch defense. That offensive scheme won't be a factor come playoff time. They might roll through the HN and get a high seed, but those top teams year in and year out will stop it come next year. It's mirrored chip Kelly's. He did great his first year with it, and now look where he's at.
Good luck to all 4 teams remaining. Looking forward to great games hopefully, and especially the game in between the two title games. So proud this state adopted the program so these kids with disabilities (if you wanna call it that) cause most of these kids don't consider it a "disability" they are just another kid, that one should be the best game all season.
