7-AAA Game Recaps
Chestatee -22, East Hall - 14
What happened - Chestatee won this game on the ground. As a team they rushed for 267 yds on 41 carries. Jo Jo Sweet ran the ball 21 times for 127 yds and 2 tds. EH couldn't establish the ground game as they did last week and the recievers didn't help Walter Hill out. Chestatee's defense stepped up to the challenge and was able to stop the speedy EH offense.
Who made a difference in the game - Chestatee Running Backs.
Early in the game, Star running back, Lane Vasser got hurt and Jo Jo Sweet stepped up and made plays and so did QB Ethan Souther. To close the game out, though, Vasser returned and took an option pitch 58 yds to paydirt to seal the game.
What lies ahead - War Eagles will look to win their 2nd in a row against a very bad White Co. team. The Vikings will travel to Dahlonega to take on Lumpkin Co.
Gilmer - 40, Lumpkin - 17
What happened - The Gilmer triple option attack was hitting on all cylinders against the hapless Indian defense. They tallied 288 yds rushing and 88 yds thru the air for a total of 376 yds and a big win on the road.
Who made a difference in the game - Rodney Berry and Ethan Watkins scored two tds on the ground to spark a very good ground game.
What lies ahead - Gilmer plays their biggest game in a while when they play host to a very,very,very,very good North Hall team. Lumpkin will try get in the win column against East Hall at home.
White Co - 0, North Hall - 50
What happened - This one was over before it even started. WC turned the ball over 6 times which NH turned into 29 pts. NH again controlled the ball by rushing 51 times for 338 yds. Kudos to WC for making Kenny and I look like fools. I'm embarrased as an alumni of such a pitiful effort especially after a bye week. I will not pick against NH for the rest of the regular season. They are just too good and showed it on Friday night.
Who made a difference in the game - The NH defense
They forced WC into 6 turnovers which as mentioned above was turned into lots of points. They also held WC's offense to 190 total yds and only 56 yds rushing.
What lies ahead - A very bad WC team, which has allowed half a hundred 4 times this year will try to rebound at home against Chestatee. North Hall will hit the road and travel up to Ellijay to take on a decent Gilmer team
Pickens - 35, West Hall - 7
What happened - If you like lots of rushing yards and attempts then this was the game to go to. Only 14 passes were attempted and by comparision, Jaybo Shaw for FB completed 14 passes. The ground game was won by Pickens as they ran for 260 yds, 144 coming from Senior Kevin Kinsey. WH did have an effective game on the ground as they rushed for 236 yds but couldn't punch the ball in the endzone.
Who made a difference in the game - RB, George Weaver
This playmaker finished with 45 yds rushing but 2 tds and caught a TD pass.
What lies ahead - Pickens will take on Gainesville in a HUGE matchup that will go a long way in determining who gets the 2nd seed in the South sub-region. West Hall will play host to Johnson in the Battle of Oakwood.
My thoughts on the GHS/FB game....
This was very hard fought game that came down to a defensive stand with FB holding off the stout GHS offense at the 4 yd line with about 2:30 minutes to go in the game. Jaybo was the difference in the game as he showed his leadership, talent, and heartspeed as he led the comeback and eventually made enough plays to pull out the win. It was an exciting atmosphere, as always, at the Branch. It was a standing room only crowd as they saw the biggest win in school history for FB. I'll have some pics downloaded tomorrow and I'll hand out our BMOC for Oct 13th here in a few...thx for stopping by and let us know your comments.
