I'm sorry I haven't already done this but with the pass in of my uncle I've had alot on my mind. But I know he'd want all GW fans to buck up and support the team so that's what I'm going to do.
So let's look at these 2 teams.
Sussex is a team that doesn't have much size at all but good team speed. To me they are a team of WRs with some LBs spotted in for some size. This shows on the O and D line with a lack of any hogs as we would say. #73 is a horse but 1 work horse can out work 8. I've seen success from the Tigers come by elusiveness from the QB and RBs not the blocking up front. If the O line for Sussex doesn't play it's best game of the year GW will abuse them with size and depth. We will live in the backfield if they cant just straight up block us. And for us it isn't like alot that have size it isn't sloppy. I feel GW will win the battle in the trench all night. On D the Tigers go at your legs in the middle and rely on speed to seal the edge. Going at our legs is asking to be gutted for 8 yards a pop. For them they must hold the ball and eat clock. Try and spread us and hope the QB has time to move. I say spread because I see them completely abandoning the Veer early it won't be there for more than 1 drive. If you allow us to stack the box you will be 3 and out all night especially with out size and speed. So now on D they will again have to find some size to get in our lines ass if not we will move them at will and ram it down the field. GW just needs to do what we do beat on the opponents until the wilt from our depth. Get in the gaps and cause panic and havoc in the backfield and use our LBs to crack heads. Many have tried to say we don't like contact well they are wrong we will smack you just to do it. Go check out the write up about our kicker smacking people that will tell you what you need to know about our physical play. For me it really boils down to who has the better line play and who has the fresher bodies late. And I honestly think GW will win in both of those categories we simply have what it takes this year imo. But we are dealing with a bunch of 16-17 year old kids so... With all of that said you know I gotta go with MY MAROONS
GW-42 Sussex-28 best of luck to all still playing and safe travels to all heading to a game

Blaster, again, I am sorry about the loss of your Uncle. From what I read about him on this
Site, Jeff was a big Maroon fan, and Coached a lot of kids in youth football. I am sure he
Will be missed. I will keep all of his family in my thought and Prayers.

From what you have said about Sussex, GW win have several advantages going into the
Game, size and depth being the biggest.Looks like both teams can score, so the team
That plays the best defense will probably come out on top.

At this stage of the playoffs, no teams are a sure win. As far as skill players, I would think
That Sussex is probably loaded. They also probably have speed and guickness, which
Can make up for size. But, at the same time, a larger team can wear down a smaller team
During the course of the game. This game may come down to who plays the best defense,
And commits the fewest mistakes.

I see GW winning this one in the second half by about 10 points. Good luck to both squads.

Thank you Chilwar we apreicate the thought. And yes they do have skill players but as you saw yourself GW isn't lacking in that department either lol. This is the most complete team we've had in a very long time.
 
I feel like as long as gw blocks good in the passing game they will be fine and win by 14 or maybe even 21!
I agree man I think this whole game will revolve around the lines. And to this point I've only seen 1 team even close to our level of line play. Not saying Sussex can't play on the line but they will have to bring an A+++ game up front to compete on the line.

Yes they will and I did watch them some and they do have a good pass rush! But I think gw line is more sound and can hold there own! Gonna be a great game! I don't think gw will be able to run jet sweep as much on them! Need to keep throwing it with there short stuff and let deacon pick apart the d!!

Yeah they should have the speed to make us turn in. But if we can run our jet it's gonna be a long night. I think the flats will be open for us they have a great D but it gets over agressive at times. Should be a war I can't wait man.

I don't predict...I don't use any judgement but my own eyes.

Two days ago, you asked me if we saw the same things....I do. Hell yes I do.

This proves it...Kudos, young Blaster.....I mean, young grasshoppa lol. You're on, but we just gotta get you a little more humble lol

For real, I do think Sussex can break some big plays against us. That is my biggest concern in this one...That one X factor.

But yeah, I'm thinking that 14-21 point margin of victory is right for GW. And hey, if I'm wrong, it's the first time....becuase since my post date in 2004, this is the first time I've laid anything down.

I saw Jeff every home game for 15+ years. Even some road ones.

I played softball against him. I've coached in the sandlot ranks above him (he coached 4th and 5th graders pretty much every year when I was coaching 6th and 7th year kids) and watched how he done things from afar. We spoke. We didn't know each other, but we respected each other. He left behind a dedicated wife who cherished his journey.

We could all be so lucky. He gave all he could. I respect that.

Haha I do agree I could be a little more humble but I honestly don't mean any disrespect by it. But I will say if I'm wrong I've never minded eating my crow and some humble pie for dessert.
