PN-G's inability inside the 10 is losing this game for them.

 

23 yard FG good

17-12 SOC

7:39 left

Its been a problem in several PN-G games this year...even against Nederland 

PN-G can't get into the end zone today to save their lives

PNG QB needs to keep it on some of those read/options. Literally no one on the defense is covering him as a runner. 

PN-G needs a TD quick 

SOC only has 78 total yards so far PN-G defense is playing good so far

SOC had zero first downs in the first half last week and still managed to be tied 10-10 lol 

And the touchdown was a pick 6😄

SOC's been a second half team all year, you could argue PNG outplayed them in the first half and they are still losing...thats concerning if I'm a PNG fan

SOC got held to 10 vs. Emerson last week we all saw how that turned out 

Just now, Austin1985 said:

Maybe so but it needs to be from the pocket.  No need to roll the qb out

Coach Todd is really good at 2nd half adjustments...we'll see what he does

If I’m coaching they would have to beat me with the passing game….would load box & force them to throw it. They haven’t shown me anything in the passing game all year.

I think Danny Green got hurt on that last run

Just now, Coach_Izzy said:

No offense Indian fans…but I HATE the 3-3-5 defense lol

Eventually SOC is going to catch PN-G deep

FG’s aren’t going to win this one 

Nope

Let’s see if this game comes down to Coaching or Jimmy’s & Joe’s 

SOC has both

32 yard FG Good

3-0 PN-G

7:38 1st

Field goals won't cut it against SOC

For the coaching matters more than talent folks…4th & 6 Gilmer handed the ball to the best player on the field & he broke a few tackles & got the first down to win a state championship! That had zero to do with coaching, this game came down to one player being better than everyone else on the field.

 

Jimmy & Joes>

You can't turn the ball over in the red zone and win the game...we have seen the result more than once this week

Will Henderson is fast

I didn't say I was shocked.  I said I was disappointed.  Kinda like how you started a special thread just to crucify him, and how certain folks from franklin are in every franklin/malakoff post on facebook bringing it up.  I agree it was disrespectful, and I wouldn't be mad if he lost his mvp or got suspended several games.  but so is the fact that very few franklin folks are giving any credit to Malakoff for a fantastic season and straight up beating y'all, but are instead harping on this incident. it was ridiculous, but it's also a footnote, not the main story.  

That was one heck of a defensive performance Malakoff put up they deserve alot of credit...the whole spitting thing let Coach Driskell handle that

Well, it won’t take them long…. Since it’s the first game of the day and there won’t be anybody in the stands to clear out. 

Nah just a few strays😄

Watching SOC on YouTube.  The RB #21 Green is quick and elusive.  Yikes.  Not the biggest guy, but he can take a pop and bounce off tacklers.  PN-G has seen some good RBs this season, but I don't think the Indians have seen anyone with his combination of quickness, vision, and the ability to slip away from tacklers.  The SOC QB #18 reminds me of PN-G's #9...cool under pressure and making the right reads and throws.  #18 can sling it.  SOC defense is fast at all three levels, but I think PN-G's OL will be able to create some running lanes.  The game will come down to PN-G stopping the run and PN-G winning some one-on-one battles in the passing game when SOC loads the box.  Stopping the run is easier said than done.  SOC has some DUDES on the OL and #21 zips right through their lanes.  They are playing well.  Glad PN-G has a shot to play the last 5A-DII game of the year and taking a shot at the defending champs.  We've got a shot...what more can you ask for?  Should be a good game.  Tip of the cap to SOC coaching staff...they lost 11 scholarship kids from last season and they are back at the top, in the state championship.  Impressive.

P.S.  One more thing.  No turnovers this year.  The Indians need to hold on to the ball.  No safeties this year.

I agree with your assessment 100% I said the same thing watching SOC...on the scholarship front in total SOC had 12 players sign FBS Division 1 Scholarships last year and 22 in total and yet they're right back here at state again it speaks to the talent level SOC has had the past 3 years

Who will they be clearing out? This is the first game of the day. 
 

 

Only the very lowest section gets cleared out

Yes I know, we went last year.  Since we’re the first game there is no clearing out process.  

The bottom level will still be cleared out looks good for television

Has anyone been to the early game at AT&T?   My wife is dropping me off that morning to wait in line and was wondering how early people start getting there.  My daughter is an Indianette so we try to sit in a certain spot.  

You'll be fine plenty of good seats at AT&T Stadium...they clear out the lower section after each game is finished so if you plan to catch another game keep that in mind

The blocking will look different this next week against SOC.  LH was cutting all game due to the size difference, next week will be strength vs strength.  

I don't see it that way I've seen SOC several times this year...its going to be the strength of the PN-G offensive line vs the speed of SOC...SOC isn't very big on the defensive line they make up for that with speed...on the defensive side this is easily the biggest team PN-G has played this year SOC offensive line averages above 280 this year

Loved the fake punt from their own 15..  I can’t say I’ve ever seen that call at that point of the game, that deep in your own territory. 
 

SOC is a slow starting team, it seems.   PNG needs to come out hot the 1st half and create a decent lead.    SOC’s staff clearly makes great adjustments, and I’m curious to see how Joseph and his staff adjust.

 

Good Luck I-N-D-I-A-N-S!!

It's like a boxing match where last year PN-G faced the defending world heavyweight championship got a knockdown in the early rounds but the champion came out on top in the end and this is the rematch. I really feel PN-G has to work on blocking this week because in last year's state championship game it was atrocious after taking a 12 point lead. You can’t take your foot off the gas and hope to beat SOC PN-G has to play all 4 quarters to win state 

That fake punt was slick
