Jackson
- Thread starter hsmaniac
- Start date
Holding penalty on 3rd down pushed them back to 25 yard line. Must not of thought they could make it.
It’s coach eckley. If you knew him, he hates to punt and loves to onside kick it if his kicker can’t kick it out of the back of the end zone. He’s a greedy and risk taking guy. Once witnessed him go for it in a playoff game, up by 14 and go for it on 4th and 27 from his own 30. That was the start of the avalanche that night
42 yard field goal with college uprights is no chipshot

Granted there was quite the wind issue at Staley BUT I noticed a reluctance to settle for 3 in that game, too.

There is a KEY point: the college goal posts. Factored in a number of games this weekend.
I hate Monday morning QBing coaches, but to me, the game was lost for Jackson when they got the ball with about six minutes left at about its own 35..
They were throwing the ball with great success but got all conservative on that possession, and I’ve seen that exact thing a million times in football. Get conservative, lose the game. They Run on first down, stupid reverse on second down then had a ball batted down on third down.
instead of going for it on fourth and four, they punt and the rest is history.
If it were me, the way that QB runs and throws the ball, him making a play is your best offense, not a reverse.
Jackson had a great year, two really good teams. I thought Carthage was a more well rounded team. Very few weaknesses across the field and their D Line was the difference IMO.
It’s hard to predict too much with all the class shake ups that are likely to happen, but I could see both teams making a run again next year as they’ll return a lot.
