Woody_Hayes Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 There was a time in the not so distant past, where Valpo had the opportunity to prepare for this very match-up by adding a class to their curriculum dealing with the slaying of Dragons. However, they passed on the opportunity to train their men with the “Dragon Slayer” course. Sure people laughed about it back then, but tonight the Vikings face the Dragons. Will this missed opportunity come back to haunt them? 1 Quote
Bobref Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 Valpo hanging tough, keeping New Pal’s offense off the field. 10-10 and Valpo gets the ball to start the 2nd half. A 17 play drive using up almost 8 minutes. Spiegel not a factor so far. Quote

Coach Nowlin Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 Not surprised NP opened with Speed Option, it was the 1 Run play 1st half they created a seam with, came right back to it. 1 missed tackle at point of attack and #32 got vertical, then its lights out when Charlie gets vertical with speed. Official crew on this game is one of the best in the state. 1 Quote

Coach Nowlin Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 New Pal has flipped that switch...... did same thing to Cathedral So impressive as always Quote

Make the play. Not half the play. New Pal lucky to have Spegal or they would be good team but not great. Should be utilizing Hook more on O.

Stating facts and that it didn't matter. And you can downplay New Pal all you want. Quote

dmizers3 Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 Seems a little early for complete desperation mode for Valpo Quote
OldschoolFB Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 Look New Pal is no doubt a great team and a great program. They know how to win. They are relentless and very very confident. You made an excuse about the 2 catches that by rule go to the offense. I don’t like it when it happens to the teams I like. But the rule is the rule. As I’m watching now, Valpo will throw too many vertical and not go short and New Pal will win. They are great. Everyone knows it. But you made an excuse because it was tied at the time. One my second graders doesn’t make. Congrats to New Pal who is literally one of the all time, if not the greatest all time program over the course of 7 years in the history of the state. Quote

dmizers3 Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 Valpo's defense is definitely as advertised. Great d line that for the most part took Spegal out of this game. 1 Quote
BTF Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 I didn't like the personal foul facemask call. It looked incidental to me. Other than that, I think the officiating has done a fantastic job. Two great teams. One just making more plays. Congrats to New Pal. Quote
Guest Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 No moral victories but damn I walked away impressed with Valpo’s resiliency. Quote
