The other thing I will add is Pike Central's chances of winning increase vastly if they can get up early. A touchdown won't cut it, but a couple early scores and the entire complexion of this game changes much like two years ago when they nearly knocked the Pirates off. Down a TD with a full game ahead is easily able to be overcame by Belfry, but 2 TD's might hasten Belfry's step a bit and cause them to press or deviate from their gameplan.

The blueprint to ebat Belfry is actually quite simple:
- Force them into 3rd and Long
- Create a couple turnovers that you capitalize on
- Show balance on offense
- Be patient, make their time consuming offense work against them instead of for them

The problem is there are a lot of steps between point A and Point B to be able to do these things successfully.

what was it, in 06 Belfry at Russell down 20-0 at half, they just keep to there plan and had game won if it wasnt for the flag,i dont think these guys would get rattled much,hope not anyway..
