I'm just watching Jaws 31 talking s*** about my team again this year. LOL It's a good omen. The more he hates on them, the better they do!!!
Girard Played two of the best teams in the area if not the state in they're divisions. They're going to beat up on everybody left on their schedule. Hubbard has played three of the weaker teams in the league. Struthers lost a ton and if they cant knock off Niles, they might not win another game. Hubbard, if they fall to Girard, won't either.
I think this weeks game is fairly evenly matched but I think #2 for Girard will be the best athlete on the field. Line play will matter and Hubbard always comes with a strong offensive line and at least one burner. Both teams have scored 77 points this year, but the level of competition favors Girard. Girard struggled in a downpour in week one when most teams postponed, Against lakeview they had four first half turnovers and as many holding calls slowing any offense. The dry second half was a blowout scoring 35 in the third quarter with seconds in to finish up. They kept it a little interesting against SR early in the second half after SR got a three score lead scoring twice in the third. The rest of the second half didn't go well. But they scored more than Poland. That's a positive. The Poland game, they certainly got pushed around by a huge offensive line and couldn't produce much offense. They're back at home this week and may finish the season with three more wins. All in all, I'm just glad the kids get to play. Wish I could be there. Maybe I will.
