  1. Talking bout this season. They’ve been beaten and have what appears on paper as an inconsistent offense. They don’t score as much as EN has and maybe there’s a disparity in conference strength but I think it’s going to be a heck of a game regardless. And yes was more talking bout Dwenger always knocking out teams from the north. I’m not trying to knock EM at all as I don’t know enough about them to really say outside of reading stat lines and ratings. Going to be a good one
  2. I think this game has the makings to be one of the best games to watch this weekend. That being said the key to this game will be turnovers. EN has a potent offense with Bailey Parker amassing an insane amount of yardage on the season but isn't their only weapon. The pair of 6'4-6'6 receivers are problematic for most teams as even if you double coverage one of them there's still the other. They also have a talented rb who has "quietly" rushed for over 1000 yards on the season. EN's defense is really the problem here as they create turnovers in pass game and are hard to run on consistently. Having read one comment about them "playing inferior competition" is just ridiculous. They have played a host of teams that could be playing for a state championship this weekend instead. They have played multiple ranked opponents and come out on top so I don't think strength of schedule will be a factor. What will be a factor is the inexperience. Its been 17 years since EN has been to the championship and nerves and inexperience may get them a little rattled if things don't go as planned early. That being said Evansville on paper doesn't seem as qualified but I'm guessing they have some serious speed at key positions and it looks like they have a QB who can throw the ball downfield and run the ball. Seems the majority of their big plays are WR screens and QB Read plays so that tells me they have enough speed to match EN in the big play department. It's an interesting matchup now that some of the private schools have moved out of 4a and into 5a you're getting to see the best the state has to offer and programs that easily could have played for State championships the past few years but were thwarted in the past by the major Private schools. Regardless how the game ends up I think it should be a good game and it will come down to limiting turnovers and coaching adjustments. I'm interested to see the EM offense as a whole but wondering how they plan to stop EN with their 4-2-5 defense. Should be a close one EN 31- EM 28
