Very interesting. Are they letting the class of 2025 graduate without going to a different school?

I saw also. It was not handled well and it's not what I was thinking about when I started this thread. I'm asking about coaching and the coach's role in using the clock as an edge. And, incidentally, PNG coach Jeff Joseph seems to be really good at it. There's many different things to consider. Forcing TOs, staying in-bounds, running vs passing etc. It just seems boring but I think it's underrated.

How many games have you seen where the clock management either won or lost the game? I think some coaches are just better at this part of the game.

PNG really did do an absolutely STELLAR job of containing the RBs. The improvement in that respect is truly shocking tbh. Great job

Well that's a win for PNG. Lots of work to do on the Defensive side. The QB run especially. Still having teams miscues that need to be cleaned up as well.

It looked like they had no idea the fake punt was coming

Wow those Huntsville RBs are good. I think the PNG defense becomes Damage, Inc. against a less experienced and smaller O-line. Penetration and disruption will slow that run game and keep the chains long and getting pressure on passing downs will be key. If that happens PNG OL will lean on the Hornets and Blair+Tyson will run all over them. A couple good shots deep will have PNG up by 10 and choke-out mode in the 4th. PNG by 10

I just saw this.. I guess it isn't a rumor [Hidden Content]

I would also add that if SOC had won the game there would be no discussion. this is all just pettiness. ...and I'll take the over 😀

Nice!

I found that nickname to be corny. A little over the top too. Kinda like they were trying to be too scary.

Does PNG Defense have a nickname? If they do, I haven’t heard it. They deaerve one with the way they play. It’s cool to play Defense!

Not on youtube. The link is in the second post on page 8 of this thread.

This is on point!

I think the strength of SOC is the secondary. They are really good. NDNs on offense are gonna have to keep them honest to keep the running lanes open. I don’t think PNG can get behind the corners but RPOs and double moves will suffice. If PNG can get out front by 2 scores we got something!

Good grief.. Call me Chuck.. I will be a bit late but the “Trail of Victory” will be so sweet!! Always Be Faithful

I see where the Liberty Hill coach lists THE Doug Ethridge as his mentor. Is PNG Football gonna have to beat PNG Football to reach the SHIP?

Just tackle the dude that looks like the dude that took the fake from the dude.

This is going to be a game for the ages. 2 FANTASIC teams that play GREAT football. While I hope for the PNG win, whoever wins this game will be the champ IMHO. Get some!!

I have my tickets!! I don’t think the home side is sold out yet. Let’s BRING IT NDN NATION!!
