LETS RUIN THEIR HOMECOMING

RECAP

Not much of a contest this past Friday. With Freedom destroying Dieruff just like every other team has done this year. I was happy with the way the offense ran, but it's tough to really tell if they are back to clicking considering they played a struggling Husky team. But I think they are and it will show in this upcoming match-up. Well Freedom came into the game off a tough loss, but were ready not to get upset. They went right to work with two huge runs in the first half by Rene and Elliott to put us up 14-0 into the second quarter. Then once again Elliott ran for another huge run paired with a Giovarelli throw & Alozie run. That put the Patriots up 35-0 into halftime. The third quarter was the only let down where our offense couldn't get it moving. But then brought it back for two scores to finish the game. One thing I was really upset about was the Student Section... It was horrible, NO ONE WAS THERE. We got to do better than that.

 Time To Buckle Down

Well Patriot fans half of our Freedom season is in the books. It's quite sad to hear it, but we only have 5 regular season games left. I REPEAT regular season games. But we have no right to look ahead past tonight. As we head up to Northampton tonight it looks to be a pretty nice night for some football. And this start the track of "Buckling Down" because this game is just as important as the rest. And you know what makes this game so much more fun to play in... it's Northampton's Homecoming! And that makes it so much more of a fun atmosphere to play in and it will also get the players ready to what we will definitly see down the road as far as packed houses come. I say we ruin their Homecoming with a big us getting a big W.
Northampton

The Konkrete Kids come into this game basically the same way we are... with a win over Allen. They are in the same position as we are win and stay in the race. They also have a great run game which is done very well against opposing defenses. So what all does this tell you? They are going to be playing very hard and be playing for their fans for Homecoming. Look for this Northampton football team to play fundamental football. They aren't going to put up a ton of points on you, but they sure aren't going to give you any free ones either. They have a great coach who has alot of confidence in his quarterback Patrick Cook to lead them to victory.
Keys to the Victory
OFFENSIVELY

We are going to need be able pass the ball in this one. As the season goes on more and more teams are going to stack the boxes with more people to stop our explosive run game that Freedom is really starting to build. Now does that mean don't run? No not all, we will have to throw the football to open up the run game so Elliott and company can run all over the field.
DEFENSIVELY
Tonight we are going to have to stop the run game that Northampton is know for. And that is the hard nose type of run game. We are going to have to make them run east and west. Not north and south which is what these Konkrete backs are very good at doing.
OVERALL

We need to stay within ourselves this game and try not to make to many big plays. Because we won't be able to get those back because Northampton is to smart of a team to allow many turnovers. But with Roeder and the crew back at work for this game, I think we should be able to show off our strong offense once again.

TBiZ Predicts:

This game is going to be won in the first quarter in my opinion. We have to come out tonight and show that we are the better team... which I believe we are and give it to them early. There's no need for us to even let them believe they can win this one with Homecoming tonight. I say Giovarelli has a great game tonight and we win this won by double digits.

FREEDOM- 28

Northampton- 17
