Lafayette vs. Brentsville
- Thread starter Lafayette
- Start date
Brentsville is solid but without their starting QB, it will be an uphill battle against a really good Lafayette squad.
You have to feel for Brentsville District. It's one thing they had to play Phoebus on the road twice just when the Phantoms were returning to their D5 powerhouse form but playing D3 football but now they are playing the most influential high school in American high school football history and to make that even worse they are probably unaware. The Lafayette Rams are the foundation of the Tom Landry era Dallas Cowboys short game passing attack and the Bill Parcells and Bill Belichick New York Giants defense. They are responsible for modernizing and turning kick/punt returns into a weapon through the Detroit Lions of all teams. The Football Gods smile on the Rams when the rest of us are standing outside, alone in the bitter wintertime, with no coat, a book of wet matches and a polar bear staring directly in our eyes. BD will need to play flawless defense.
Did you notice how Heritage performed during the heat of their regular season schedule? Well. They didn't. 3 times in a row. Nothing. No resistance. Like during an attack by The Borg.
True but many did not perform well against Phoebus or Warwick. The Hampton game was surprising as they are just ok. But their dominant win over a very good Hopewell shows their improvement. Would Lafayette lose a second time around against St Christopher or Warhill now? I doubt it. A team strives to keep getting better not stay the same.
Not exactly sure of the issue but it’s one of his knees. At the end of the 2nd quarter of the Kettle Run game he went down hard.
He really would be a huge addition to their offense if he can return.
I watched Lafayette pound what ended up being a pretty awful Spotsylvania team earlier this season.
Reflecting back on that game, Lafayette reminded me of a King George-lite with better pocket passing.
They are well coached and have some athletes and I don't see them having any issue with Brentsville District. I can see it being something like a 31-13 in favor of Lafayette.

I Agree discipline is the key word. Lafayette is discipline, watching hopewell they've talent and athletes but lacked discipline at times this season, against Heritage even if they would've beat Heritage a do think they've lost to Lafayette.
According to the article… “quarterback Caleb Alexander after a partially torn MCL suffered against Kettle Run in the regional semifinal.” https://www.insidenova.com/sports/a...cle_6a09957e-88a0-11ee-9117-a7fb77aaa0c9.html
Just about everyone has someone out. For Lafayette it’s #8 Jaiden Brown, a RB. On crutches.
Defense played lights out. Offense met some stiffer resistance than lately from Brentsville defense. Now the Mt Everest of class 3 to climb, LCA. Considering this was a rebuilding year, it’s been a fabulous year and we are now playing with the houses money. No pressure on Lafayette just let loose.
