From the battlefield.The boards are quiet after most teams in the area scrimmaged last night. What are your thoughts?
I watched about an hour of the Sherando/Musselman scrimmage this morning. To preface this I’ll say that Musselman did extremely well last year with an 11-2 record falling to Martinsburg both times with a combined score of 112-14. I’m not sure how much the return to the field this season but I’d give them the edge over in Sherando in what I saw in the hour I was there.
Sherando was definitely bigger but they just didn’t have me feeling confident on any aspect really. Obviously it is a scrimmage and Coach Hall never does a whole lot during the scrimmage but I’m talking about basic fundamentals. Not breaking down on tackles, missed assignments in defensive secondary (Musselman had a catch and run for around 70 yards against first D).
Offensively I believe Sherando had one decent drive but the only thing I took away from it was the starting QB is very athletic and was able to make plays with his feet but I didn’t see much of his arm. I’m not sure if it was Musselman’s coverage or Campbell was just not seeing the field. Of course Payne Bauer is a force to be reckon with hasn’t missed a beat but he’ll need a supporting cast. Poor ref got demolished by Bauer on one play.
Either way these kids are working hard and this is just one scrimmage of my thoughts for only 1 hour. I know both teams will take a lot away from this and become better come gameday.
Spotsy was much deeper than Courtland on offense and defense. As long as that big oline stays healthy they should make noise in 4BCourtland will have very good defense, was missing four starters for this scrimmage. The offense will be in catch up mode but has loads of potential. Spotsy has arguably their best team in 20 years! Running will be their specialty of choice as they are truly loaded at RB. Thier achilles heel will be depth and avoiding the injury bug. Schedule not that tought, sets them up for playoff run.
I wasn't able to make it to either of the Sherando scrimmages, but I heard the first one against Musselman was rough. Hopefully they get the shake of things by the start of the season. Also not surprised about the missing tackles thing, seems like Sherando has had issues with that for years. I would like to see a two QB offense this year. What do you think the offense will look like from what you've seen?I watched about an hour of the Sherando/Musselman scrimmage this morning.
