I'll reserve judgement on both of these teams until the playoffs. BG has won Region 1 four out of the past 5 years so they know what it's about. The thing that would scare me about Central is their offense. They don't score a lot of points against strong teams. They were shut out for 3 qtrs against BG before scoring 17 in the 4th. Has BG ever givin up a lead like that?

When Warren Central loses in the postseason, it will absolutely be because the offense didn't punch it in. As I said above, their problem is not moving the ball, it is finishing the drive. They made deep movements into Purple territory on Friday before the 4th Quarter, but either had a penalty, a turnover, or a Bowling Green stop that ended the drive. They punted twice from the 35-40, usually because it was 4th and long. Warren Central is very much an "on schedule" team, in that they need to pick up positive yardage to make their third and fourth downs manageable, or else they've got a problem.I believe Bowling Green punched it in on both of their red zone possessions. That's what good offenses do, they finish it when they get in close.

It's tough to say exactly what happened to Bowling Green in the 4th. I don't know if Warren Central's physicality finally wore them down, whether they decelerated before realizing they shouldn't have, or whatever. I just know Central moved the ball fine before, but they finally punched it in. Were there more time on the clock, I'd say the final score was likely going to be a TD. Bowling Green didn't seem like they had the ability at all to stop them by that point.
