So a neutral site game for this one. The soccer fields in Miamitown is the only place between the schools. Fairfield?
 
 
Both teams just come straight over 275
Problem is LS attendance hasn’t been anything to write home about the last two games, and there’s probably more seating at Princeton than Fairfield
 
What kind of a offensive defense does Harrison have and what should we be looking out for?
 
If there was ever a year Harrison was going to beat La Salle, this is their best shot at it. La Salle though is the bully they can't ever seem to get over, and they have ended Harrisons season numerous times in the past 10 years or so. I think Harrison will be competitive but I think La Salle wins by 10-15 points. As for a site for the game, Fairfield would be a great option! They could also look into Oak Hills as well.
 
La Salle’s secondary just scares me. That was the worst game I saw one particular kid have Friday.

Additionally, LS needs to keep its foot on the gas offensively. That drive right before halftime when they could have gone up 35-7 and instead tried to milk the clock was the difference in a running clock game and us sweating one out in the fourth.

Some coaches see the advantage in running up the score early in the game. I don’t think we’ve seen this from these coaches and milking the clock has never been there forte 3 1/2 minutes to go all they have to do is get a first down. Kings is out of timeouts and I just couldn’t believe the playcalling kinda look like Zack Taylor had taken over the playcalling.
 
Hopefully the gentleman whom you refer to this is his worst game and he’ll do much much better next week, but there certainly was a reason why most if not all of King deep secondary passes were all to the right side of their line
 
Harrison looks like a pretty even play passing and running and as long as LaSalle keeps the pedal to the metal and don’t let up they have a chance

Yeah, I certainly won't call out by name or number in this case, but every third and long or fourth and long conversion was the same thing.

I don't know if it's running up the score, but in the playoffs, there is a sure advantage to engaging the running clock if you can. That 14-point swing right before halftime was the biggest reason Kings had hope. And their kids certainly responded.

As a sophomore I would’ve said the same thing. Struggled with turnovers this year and the offense never got going as expected. Last night was his best game of the year despite the late turnovers (the last one bounced off of the receiver’s hands).
 
LaSalle is playing really well. I think they beat Harrison easily and give Anderson a really good game.
 
Anyone heard anything about location yet??? Idk if they would be able to swing it but Taylor High school is a good central location, haven't been there in a while so amenities might be the problem with that statement

Edit: capacity is a little over 2000 so never mind on the taylor thing

Well, I guess they don’t expect very many people to show up the seating on the Home team side is reasonable but very little seating on the visitor side. I can’t imagine why they would’ve picked this place. Parking is not bad unless you Have ambulation issues and then it’s a real problem. Hamilton Cleves Road is two lanes and I will imagine it’s going to be backed up getting into that place. And I would imagine LS will be coming over US 27. From 275. In Harrison will be taking Hamilton Cleves from their school and there’s no other way around This could potentially create a huge traffic jam so I would recommend you get there early like real early

Is this an accurate photo of the visitor's side at Ross?

Well, they better bring their portable stands. There’s nowhere for them to sit quite frankly dumb idea from OHSAA to choose this for a playoff.
