Chances for winning this week?

 
On paper Hoover is about a 7 to 10 point dog.

I think if they can establish some semblance of a running game that will make it easier for Nettleton to have a good start. Remember last year Hoover came out throwing the ball all over the field and put up about 250 yds of offense. In the second half Louisville keyed in on Foote and blitzed him to death. Hoover had no running game to mix up and the Leps knocked Foote out of the game.

A key will be no TO's early. Louisville is very opportunistic and very sound especially on the defensive side of the ball. Louisville though is not throwing it as much as past years. They only have about 70-80 passing yds on about 20 pass attempts in 2 games. Kuhn is their QB and runs alot more than he passes and is quite elusive.

The backs have looked good but they need the OL to step up each week. Allman has nice vision and Gnau is a tough runner. Benko has proven to be a go-to-guy, and Feinberg has potential to score on an given play.
 
I think Levy is right. If Hoover does not have any TO in the first half then this game is going to be a shocker.

TO will determine the winner. My money is on Nettleton and Hertler. Hoover's kicker is the difference in this game.
