Ok here is my take on the game. Boyd county has a good little team and they are way better then last year so I don't want to take anything away from them. Our Oline was dominant but very sloppy. I will chalk some of that up to it being the first game. Our whole offense was a little jittery the first half of this game but they started to settle down in the 2nd half. We had a very good O lineman on the sideline who I hope will be back next week. The QB was throwing pretty wild the first half but he also settled down as the game went. This offense is loaded with speed and talent and they will just get better and better. Now for the defense................I have said again and again that I am a defensive guy and this stuff is driving me crazy. We have the size, speed and ability to have a very good defense. Just like last season we have people everywhere sitting back and waiting for the ball to come to them instead of going to the ball and attacking. If they would just be a little more aggressive and go to the ball and get the angle that would make a world of difference. I agree that the defensive line they put on the field last night will not work. Way too small and if the defensive line is collapsing then that makes the linebackers job harder and then that makes the defensive backfields job harder. I disagree about what some think about the linebackers. We have some good linebackers on this team but they can't do anything if the Dline is setting em up for failure. They will have no choice but to play some of the big guys both ways. If they bulk up that defensive line with a few people like say #77 and #56 and #61 then I think you would see a world of difference in this defense and then the linebackers and defensive backs can do what they do. For all I know coach knew Boyd was outmatched so maybe he was just trying a few things, but if that was what he was doing then I think he got his answer lol. This team is going to get better and better every game, but if the defensive shenanigans that have gone on the last few seasons continue then forget about Belfry because offenses like Fairview, Greenup County, and Raceland will eat us alive before we ever see Belfry. I don't understand how coach Cecil ain't going crazy with the fact that he is also a defensive guy. I don't even know who the defensive coordinator is on this team or who calls the defensive plays. I have asked this question the last three years and no one seems to know.......It's a mystery lol. After the last few years of defensive failure while the offense excels I wouldn't want anyone to know my identity either. I look for this offense to explode in the games to come but if some changes aren't made on defense then it wont matter when it matters. This is all my opinion and you can take it with a grain of salt but that's the way I see it.

A light bulb just came on over my head with this one little comment of mine and this has me thinking! Thinking about where the coaching talent in this program really lies and the direction this program needs to go at some point in the future. I think he is still a little young but maybe that is the breath of fresh air this program is screaming for.
