Actually, Corbin is 8th in 4A rushing defense. Johnson Central is 2nd.

Cool. But no one said anything about Corbin’s rushing defense. Corbin is #1 in TEAM defense, and that’s where it counts. Yardage don’t win ball games but points do. Honestly i don’t care if we give up 400 yards of each every game. As long at that score board has us ahead by one, I think nearly all of us would be good. But Wayne passes a lot too. Funny you didn’t mention those stats. But hopefully we can talk a lot about that next week

Corbin's passing defense probably won't matter much in the rain against LCC and it won't matter at all if they play Johnson Central - if they are unable to stop the run. With all the finger pointing about Corin's personnel decisions on offense against Johnson Central, the truth is Johnson Central is going to win any game in which they rush for 454 yards. Bad rushing defense ended Corbin's season in both 2020 and 2021. If Johnson Central is forced to pass much against Corbin, then it will mean Corbin has managed to contain JC's running game.
