Friday is shaping up to be an incredible night for football in EKY. Cool and clear is the forecast (for right now, but give it 30 mins and that can change). Should be pretty good conditions for a throwing team like Fairview. Raceland needs to keep locked in on Washington and get in Roy's face early and often. Paintsville had him rattled. I figure he and Washington will hook up for a couple big gains and a TD or 2. Much like they did against Paintsville, I think Raceland's DL is a little quicker than Paintsvilles and only running a 4 man front will allow us an extra DB if we need it. I think as the season gets deeper and deeper you will see Davidson on the field more on the defensive side of the ball as well. I hope I am right when I say that my gut tells me Raceland is gearing up for a run and the following games, help us out during that run.

1. West Carter: Showed us that a team can beat you multiple ways and if you over look someone, it can make your evening that much mire difficult. Special teams were exposed in week 1, since then our kick coverage and onside/squib kicks have been solid.

2. Ashland- The 2nd and 3rd quarters Showed us that if we play with heart and desire, we can hang with just about anyone, if we come out in the 1st like we did in the 2nd, thats a totally different ball game.

3. Greenup- We can win close ball games and our defense really anchors our entire team.

4. Valley/Portsmouth/Lawrence: Our offense can be explosive and consistent. Though we lost 1 out of the 3 games, we were right in the thick of it to end Valley's streak, just ran out of time. We can play physical on both sides of the football and not just within our defensive front 7.

These games will pay off big for us as we approach our goals. I dont think we will be over looking anyone from here on out. Man its only monday...this sux lol

Nathaniel is going to have to play defense for the the Rams to get where they want to go , he's been banged up this year and with playing qb it was a good idea to get him as much rest on his ankle as possible and They've won without him , and Blake has played ok at times he's just not as physical or instinctive as Nathaniel , I look for him to play some this week just to get some reps but be back totally in the Paintsville game . And that gives Raceland the same front 7 that shut Paintsville down last year imo their offense was better last year belcher started as a sophomore at Johnson central and was a stud there . I just don't see what all the hype is about Paintsville they are the same team as they were last year
