I suggest our guys spend the week watching Colton Cunninghams game films - kid was a shoe string tackler all day long, because he wasn't the biggest or strongest, but it was damn effective. My guy just went hi and over powered them, and he is finding out now that they are just and big and strong if not stronger than he is. LH plays disciplined defense, makes tackles, and doesn't let the La Vega speed guys run all over the place, and we have a better than average shot at taking a W in this game. Walker is going to have to open the playbook wide open and even draw up some new stuff - La Vega D is good, damn good and we can't get by on up the gut runs, they are too big and too fast. We can out smart them, and that is where the offense is going to have to shine. Any time we get close, we have to put points on the board, whether it be a TD or FG, but we can't come away empty. The intangibles here will be for LH to tackle and wrap up, not let their speed guys run wild and Coach Walker pulling our some of that offensive genius and out smarting a very good defense.
