Guest abovetherim Posted December 8, 2007 Report Posted December 8, 2007 Those are some amazing numbers but Dayton plays defense. I still like the Broncos.
KFDM COOP Posted December 8, 2007 Author Report Posted December 8, 2007 Lake Travis will throw, throw and throw.
knightrider Posted December 8, 2007 Report Posted December 8, 2007 our corners and safeties will have to smother the receivers all night. coach stewart will have them prepared i'm sure. got to keep alot of pressure on the quarterback. going to be a tough game. i believe they can and will do it. can't turn the ball over on mistakes though. got to play a near perfect game to stay alive. the broncos want this one. "go broncos" "all the way to state"
Cardinal Supporter Posted December 8, 2007 Report Posted December 8, 2007 One of the keys to defending the pass is to rush the QB. If he does not have time to set up he will have to hurry his throws and will be less accurate which could result in a pic or at the least an incompletion. Great job so far and good luck the rest of the way Broncos.
PURPLE 4EVER Posted December 8, 2007 Report Posted December 8, 2007 This will be the first spread attach Dayton has faced since the Nederland game.Will be an AWEsome game...The key....Stopping the spread inside the 20.Looks like both teams will move the ball up and down the field, but scoring inside the 20 is when the spread usually stalls.You got to like the stats that the Dayton defense has put up all year.Waller got 21 points but never had a drive over 60 yards for points.Dayton can not have two or more turnovers and come up on top.What a game this will be.As mentioned earlier, there will probably be 100 points combined scored in this game.
rkhufu7 Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 Former Connally QB Steven Sheffield threw 7 TD passes in one half in the playoffs in 9 attemps!
baseball4life09 Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 i just think this is kinda funny"Junior QB throws 7 TD passes, two shy of tying state record"Junior quarterback Garrett Gilbert threw for 278 yards and seven touchdown passes — just one away from tying the all-time state record — on a 24-of-31 passing night that saw Lake Travis put up Madden-esque numbers. i bet this newspaper editor was upset lol
liltex Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 If it gets nasty[100]pts.it will be the "BRONCOS"putting up the bulk.G.Charles #1 may break the pass record.
rkhufu7 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 Westlake and Connally held him under 50% completions and he tossed 4 INTs vs the Chaps. You guys have better speed, you just have to be phsyical and get after him, and don't allow any running game or kick returns. They don't take them all the way, they just get good field position. Is Nederland like Friendswood? LT is very much like Friendswood, but they pass more. Lake Travis has trouble with athletic teams, you will be held, so be ready. don't get in a shootout, you will likley lose, that means your defense is getting torched. They don't rely on defense, just SCORING!
liltex Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 That is true,6 of their wins against teams w/20 wins between them & 40 losses.Remember this,Dayton has played a much harder schedule & could have put up many more points but instead let reserves & jv boys get playing time & they kneeled to let the clock run down near the goal line.So Dayton's 478 pts.scored could have been more/defensive pts.allowed could have been less had the "A" team remained on the field.

Lake Travos has trouble with athletic teams, you will be held, so be ready. don't get in a shootout, you will likley lose, that means your defense is getting torched. They don't rely on defense, just SCORING!Friendswood was huge but correct me if i'm wrong I don't think Dayton had the current lineup as far as defense goes when they played Friendswood. I believe Dayton's defense has been revamped since that game, pretty sure of it. But of course as it goes with well coached teams adjustments are made throughout the season so I expect the same for LT as well. I see LT scoring but not much. Dayton's defense is just to fast and pesky for them and if they do decide to run they will have short drives because that is what Dayton's defense does, they force good offensive teams to make everything go up the middle because you can't run outside on Dayton they are too fast. Can't wait until friday. Also, it looks like there is going to be rain in the forecast and that would be great for Dayton and aweful for LT since they are a passing team. Go Big D!
rkhufu7 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 Bad for the small, fast team, since Kyle Field is GRASS and LT is a big team with average speed. Their WRs know where they are going, but the DBs don't!

Their WRs know where they are going, but the DBs don't!The field at A&M is cut very short (almost like a putting green).If it doesn't rain a lot on Friday, it should be very close to playing on the new hybrid turf.If the field is wet, it will have an impact on the game.
dme1111 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 Dear Rkhufu7,I have seen you on a couple of other boards questioning the Dayton defense. First of all I am not a Dayton fan unless we (nederland bulldogs) are out of contention.The answer is YES they are that good. I stood and watched them in amazement as they blanked a pretty good Nederland team 63-0. I don't know how they do it. They are fast, hit hard, and seem to always be at the right place at the right time. I hope you are at the game. I am not saying that Dayton will blowout Lake Travis. I am saying you will definitely see a a very good football team. Oh yeah... they have a pretty good offense too.
rkhufu7 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 I hope they win. Most people in Austin area don't like Westlake or the new Westlake, Lake Travis.
dme1111 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 I used to work in new home construction in Austin. We did a lot of work in the Westlake area. It appeared that the people in the area were all pretty wealthy... I hope good ol' country Dayton sticks it to em,
rollinac Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 Dear dme1111,I have no idea how they do it either. They shut down a really good Nederland spread offense and then come back the next week and stuff a really good PN-G smashmouth running game. They run a 3-4 because they can never seem to find the hogs up front, but athletes they do have. That 63-0 game was bit of a fluke though, Nederland was a much better team than the score indicated. I'd take any of the top 5 teams from our district and say they could have beat Livingston and Crosby for sure, Waller probably, and 50/50 for Texas City. How in the heck are Texas City and Dickinson 4A anyway? They must be right below the cut-off for 5A.

KFDM COOP Posted December 13, 2007 Author Report Posted December 13, 2007 I saw some video on them last week and they run the same Offense as Texas Tech, they never slow down.
dayton Posted December 13, 2007 Report Posted December 13, 2007 I saw some video on them last week and they run the same Offense as Texas Tech, they never slow down. looked that way to me too. Coop....do you have to have 35000 posts to have those cool smileys?
KFDM COOP Posted December 13, 2007 Author Report Posted December 13, 2007 Nope. Hopefully we'll be adding some new smilies soon.
