Thor77 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 I’m actually amazed that Leo was able to pass that way. I know they are dominant at running, but it’s annoyed me all season how they refuse to even work on the pass. Threw it 10 times last night, had 14 going into the game.

You ever listen to one of the most successful coaches in NCAA’s history. He never passed the football! Three things can happen when you pass and two of the three are bad. Why pass?

Three things can happen when you pass and two of the three are bad. Why pass? Because at some point, you may need to pass. And it makes your offense way more dangerous. Sure, run 20 times, then pop off an unexpected pass. That opens the running game up even more then if they have to defend that. Refusing to run the ball is just arrogance that you’re physically better than the other team. Well what happens when you hit a team just as physical? You have to be able to do different things.

You are not wrong. But the teams that Leo played, so far ,have not warranted passing. Passing for the sake of passing sometimes will get you in more trouble. Stay simple if it’s run run run ,and stay with what works. Seems like this is Lions philosophy. Working so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard their kids mention the SAC title as a goal, but never a state championship. Does that type of mentality hinder them when they square off against Sectional 4? No, I got a chance to talk to Coach Zolman on Friday. They will be ready and I honestly expect them to beat Carroll on Friday. They will still struggle against the Indy schools for reasons that have been mentioned on here multiple times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After watching NorthWood and Concord tear up the Tigers' defense through the air, I do not think they will be much competition for either team in my honest opinion. However, if Bart Ball offense can execute perfectly (no turnovers, limited penalties, long clock-eating scoring drives, etc.) that is what can keep them in the game. But they will have to execute perfectly on offense along with hoping Carroll/Homestead makes some mistakes of their own. As well, with the two week bye, I still do not know if it is a blessing or a curse. The Tigers will have gone 21 days between playing a varsity snap. That is a LONG time. If they start the game rusty... that could potentially put them in an early hole. Sorry - I know this thread is about East Noble and Leo. For my two cents there, it definitely sucks this was the first round matchup. Would have loved to have seen both of these teams square off week 3 of the tournament. Leo should handle the next two weeks with ease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They definitely are not bad with a record of 9-1 and undefeated NLC Champs. They have a solid QB and a number of athletes at the WR position. The Tiger pass defense is nowhere near as good as their rush defense, and I would venture to guess both Carroll and Homestead's passing attacks will be better than that of NorthWood and Concord's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, that was basically the Semi-State game for the North. Both of these teams would be favored in every other sectional. It’s Leo’s year and I’ll be rooting for them the rest of the way. Leo couldn’t even get out of Sectionals. Leo may have been the favorite on paper, but playoff W’s in places like Northridge, Lowell, etc. don’t come easy.

How does the coach who goes for 2 after every TD for the whole season, kick a PAT in OT of a Sectional Championship game? Leo lost the game as much as Northridge won the game. That being said, every team in the North is playing for second and hoping they can stay within 3 scores of Roncalli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northridge held Leo to 1 for 3 on conversions prior to that decision, its possible that the coach saw the same kicker I did before the game booting 30+ yard field goals with ease.

BTF Posted November 8, 2021 Author Share Posted November 8, 2021 Leo is another program that would benefit by playing in the SAC. Throw New Haven in there and that gives them 12. Division split...........large/small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you can see, two teams remain.I know some eliminated each other , but still pretty weak area of the state for football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
