Those defensive problems are the primary reason Belfry fans are closely watching Bourbon. With that said, even a struggling Belfry defense from the regular season is light years ahead of any defense Bourbon has seen thusfar this year.

One thing I like about what the Bourbon staff has done is that they have taken the reigns off Cox a bit. You could tell they were a bit tentative to let him pass as frequently as they are now. It would have been very easy to compact the offense in Pope's absence and simply ride Holman. Keeping this balance will be key to their success if Pope is unable to return 100%.

In watching the game this past Friday night, I think BoCo is just hitting their stride! They were very impressive. Just when you thought they were going to run the ball again, they would pass to one of their very good receivers. They have so many weapons and options to go to, Holman, Johnson, Hill, Hilander, Cox and Roberts. Then there is the defense.... I think they way they are playing right now, they will be a handful for WHOEVER they play. And make no mistake they will not overlook any opponent. Coach Hodge and his staff will have their team ready.
