Not sure. I mean it's only one game. I thought Middlesboro really did everything they could do defensively. No real breakdowns. Just tough to stop that jumbo offensive set from gaining 3 yards a carry. The line had no splits. TE on each side. Three backs in backfield and guy getting the most carries is 5'9" 250.

Also, after gut punch to start game, I thought staff composed team well and that showed on first scoring possession for Middlesboro.

For Bell County, I think it was a good coaching decision to go to that game plan and not veer from it. They knew that wearing the defensive line down was effectively wearing the offensive line for Middlesboro down as well.

So IMO, nothing to be greatly impressed by but not much to criticize as well.
