Platte County vs Moberly

PC played a real schedule this year. And they have it all coming together. Interesting to see how many they put up on Webb. Given they scored 29 in the first half on Staley, I'd wager it is at least 30.

Well Harrisonville has maybe 3 first downs through 3 quarters so that might be a tall order.
Harrisonville fumbled away a narrow opportunity. I credit Webb in hitting them to force a few, but at any rate the best team won. When Webb can run a dive for 9 yards a pop they're pretty hard to beat.
The thing about PC though, is they have no run D. None. So WC can sit on the ball. That will slow down PC. But they can score quick and long. They had zero yards rushing against Staley, and about 340 yards passing. Good luck stopping that 6'5 Randy Moss. Gotta get to the quarterback

Weird irony I bet Webb borrows a page from how Kearney defended their passing game. Shall see how I feel as the week goes on but, as of now, looking more and more like about a 35-14 type game.
If what you are saying is true about PC not being able to stop the run whatsoever, they got no chance. That means Webb only has to get 2-3 stops the whole game and they got it won. We've seen this movie before. If Webb goes out and runs for 400 on you, it's gonna be tough. And frustrating. And eventually, sad. I'm not a Webb fan but have seen dozens of their games, a couple up close and personal. You have to limit their run or you know what you're gonna get. You might get in the record books, as a

I remember Webb city's defense a few years back held some guy named DGB to 48 yards of total reception yards. I bet Coach Smith and Coach Derryberry knows how to handle a Randy Moss type reviever.
Well it was a cold windy day in Springfield and Hillcrest was way outclassed. I do think PC will have a much better supporting cast than that team.
Watched a couple of PC games they don't throw to just one guy they throw to 4-5 could be a problem but if we run the ball well...it won't matter figure we win by 14. No way Jrod let's them throw it all over the place.
Hillcrest muffing the opening kickoff then batting it back to the three yard line didn't hurt
I’m watching PC vs H-ville game right now on YouTube. It is mid late 2nd quarter and Platte County has 50 yards of offense and is down 6-0 to H-ville. I’m going to go on a limb and predict PC wins 20-12 but this game looks like 2 evenly matched teams to me.
I wonder if PC will give up 4 turnovers like Harrisonville did? The Webb v Harrisonville gsme. Looked like two even teams in the first half. Saved by a bold 4th down play and turnovers.
Can go three down an$ drop back 8 in pass coverages? Nine sometimes. That’s how H shut down PC.
I am not sure how you figure two even teams. WC ran 8 defensive snaps in the first half and 20 in the second half. I would guess the speed of the defense caused the pitch problems. I would say that WC did exactly what they wanted to do. Dominate and control the ball.
Don't get me wrong. Any rational person would give Webb 17-20 points over PC on the conservative side...all things being as they are. WC with the strong running game. Webb with the STRONG D Line. I think if it gets within 7-10, it will take WC being -3 on the turnovers.
Harrisonville had trouble with the pitch all year long, no matter who they played.
Bold 4th down play???? If you would have watched Webb much over the years you would know if it's 4th and 2-3 yards Webb lines up and runs a play probably 90% of the time
Heck I remember in the dome a few years ago it's 4th and maybe 2 on about our own 30 yard line on our first drive of the game and we just lined up and ran a play
When you have a great defense why would you ever want to not run a fourth down play????
