It feels like little has been said about the Louisa Albemarle game Friday. Looks to be another great challenge for both teams. Thoughts?
Albemarle at Louisa
- Thread starter Cvafootballlc
- Start date
Yes, because of dual-threat QB Jquan Anderson. He kept his team in the game against North Stafford in the playoffs last year. He is fast, and throws accurately on the run. Louisa did a good job on him last year, but he still made enough plays to win the game. Louisa will absolutely have to move the ball better this year than they did last year, or they'll be in another close nail-biter.
I'm pretty sure he didn't. They are trying to work the poor man to death.
I ended up on a crazy midnight shift schedule and I'm working on Friday's....so unfortunately, I probably won't have a chance to make a game this trip up. Unless y'all have a Saturday game, that's my only night off.
Here is Scrimmage Play's preview. I always disregard their spreads, they're always goofy, but this game may turn out to be that close.

come on Hoos, let's be realistic here. The only way Louisa even gets close to losing this game is if they give it away. They would have to have at least three turnovers, and not show up IMO. The rest of you guys schedule says 10-0 to me. I don't see a threat the rest of the way.
I thought the same thing last year, and we ended up losing, so....
All of these matchups have been close, just like Louisa/KG. Many of the kids and their families know each other, so it has been sort of a rivalry, and Albemarle always seems to play a little harder against us.

We have the same problem with James Wood, doesn't matter how good the teams are, it's a county rivalry and they always find a way to stay in the game. last year we were fortunate to get out with a win. We stunk the place up that night.
Heck, Jordan Cherry's dad was a good player for Albemarle in the 90s. I'm glad he and his five kids moved to Louisa. Plus Louisa standout junior LB Devin Jackson-McGhee transferred from Albemarle, so that'll add a chip to Albemarle's shoulders. He would've possibly been Albemarle's best defender this year. I work with his mom at CHS and my family knows his.
Close game last year....Did Albemarle lose many players from last year? I think playing at home this year gives Louisa 2-scores
Albemarle lost WR Ethan Blundin who caught the winning TD against us last year, lost RB Arun Turay, and some linemen.
If my son wasn't a player for EV, I would love to see this game. I watched the Sherando film and to be honest wasn't overly blown away by anything Louisa was doing. I thought Sherando was better live than what I saw from the film. I assume Louisa is the same. I know Hamspear wasn't thrilled with his teams D, but you have to like the young QB's potential. He will be pretty good. I also know Hamspear says Louisa is better than EV, so I would like to see that. Do they broadcast any of the games for Louisa? Culpeper network shows some of the games for EV.
Just audio streams for Louisa, no video. They are streamed here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIsmQpb2EhTyEOeYaeY4Jdw
No matter how bad of a start we have had this year, I have faith that the boys are getting it together, I have seen improvements in a lot of crucial areas of the game. if they could just put it together late in the season, I think they will make a good impression against some teams if we make it in.
Didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings, It's very close actually for me, with all three teams actually. All the games were decided by no less than 7 points. I don't think any of the teams are like any of the teams that I have seen make it to state game in the last few years though. All of these teams will have to step it up a lot to be that caliber team in my opinion.
