Manor/Crosby Post game analysis

[Chrcj71]

The Moderator kill the Crosby/Manor Game thread. Trying to see the thoughts of the Crosby Fans after this one.

- Manor had a hard time finishing any drives in the first half. Three trips to the read zone and only 6 Points (2 FG's).

- Crosby found the hole on the Manor D and exploited it to the tune of 24 points in the first half.

2nd half was a different story.

- Those three consecutive 3 and outs for Crosby changed the games.

- Manor's Offense found a good rhythm and lit up the scoreboard in the 3rd quarter.

Great game by both teams. Crosby just look like a different team in the second half.

Thoughts?

I was following this game on twitter and I thought that Crosby had this game in the bag. Then all of a sudden the second half comes around and manor puts up a ton of points. what the heck happened?

Crosby's problem all year has been their inability to play two halves of football. Either we play the first or second 24 which is the reason after Crosby had the 24-13 lead at the half I still didn't feel too comfortable. Manor had a couple passes I thought really helped them out, one where the qb was about to get sacked and threw up a punt and Crosby's defender fell down and left #10 wide open and another where the Crosby db deflected a pass but it hit a Manor defender and was caught on a tip for a big gain. We didn't make the plays and Manor did which is why we lost though. I really think the determining factor in the game was Manor's ability to keep Austin Walter in check, he was held to his lowest total of the season since the Nederland game. The three and outs we had to start the second were because we couldn't give it to Austin and let him get the 10 ypc he's been averaging all season. Manor only ran about 5 plays but they have great athletes that wear you down over time, especially on the offensive side of the ball even though they play guys both ways. Only thing there is to be optimistic about is the fact we have 8 starters coming back on the offense including the twins and Singleton who saved his best game of the season for the playoffs. If Crosby finds the personnel on defense for next year it should be at least a 13 or 14 game season, just kind of worried with the number of potential college commits on this team for next year will we actually have a "team" instead a collection of talented individuals that sometime play together which has been Crosby's issue for a while now.

[/quote]Manor outscored Crosby 36-8 in the 2nd half.  It appears that Crosby looked like a different team in the 2nd half because Manor made the necessary adjustments to win.
