bruno_LA Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Poor weather and playing conditions normally favor the underdog. Helps level the playing field. But for MV it will make it even more difficult to score vs the Tigers defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batesville's Home stands are covered but they are not as nice or big as the home stands at Enlow. I believe the covered stands at Batesville have been around since the late 80's? Maybe @Coffin K9 can give you a more accurate date? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure they existed when I competed there in the mid-late 70s...memory is a little tricky, though. My one clear Batesville memory involves their old track coach....Ron Raver.

Screagle Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) How is the OL for Fortville? Mooresville’s was possibly the best EM has faced all year and EM pushed them around with no trouble. EM strength has been stopping the run and forcing teams to throw. Very little success for any team throwing with Combs and Johnson coming off the edges. Edited November 20, 2019 by Screagle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say that Combs utilized his speed and quickness with inside-outside or outside-inside moves. The Tigers DC also did a good job using twists and stunts to try and create gaps to attack.

Screagle Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) Not sure what game you watched. Very few stunts and the two DE’s lived in the backfield. 8 TFL 4 sacks. Combs and Johnson dominated all night. EM sent 4 most the night because that’s all they was needed.

Just because a DE is in the backfield doesn't mean they pushed the Offensive Line around with no trouble. Just because there were 8 TFL's (4 sacks) doesn't mean they pushed the Offensive Line around with no trouble. It wasn't a statement to put down Evansville Memorial Defensive Line or Defense so you don't have to get defensive. It was actually a compliment that they had a great game plan utilizing the speed they had and not letting a big O-line get hands on and a push. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screagle Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Looked like EM started in cover 0 early then switched to cover 2 most the night vs Mooresville. Not sure EM can play cover 0 vs Fortville. They look athletic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screagle Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 DC has been outstanding since taking over as coordinator 3 years ago. There’s a reason EM has been consistently good on D and very well prepared each week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger391 Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 Other than New pal I think EM has played the tougher schedule and with this group of 21 seniors they are 37-3 since they were sophomores. MV only has 6 seniors. That could be the game changer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruno_LA Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 MV will have to avoid turnovers ( unlike Mooresville) and complete some long passes on offense. Marauders have overall good team quickness and play pretty solid in the secondary. MV is very vulnerable to Memorial screen game because they bring LB's on a regular basis. No team is more effective than the Tigers with the screen game. The Tigers will need to run the ball in the November conditions, and will call on Combs to do so.
