Their defensive backs were getting beat along but the Douglass quarterback couldn't hit a barn if it's 20 yards in front of him. Corbin's offense needs to find it's identity. Your defensive can only win so many games for you. You have to score more than 6 points to beat an explosive offense like Boyle. Can Boyle be beat YES they can just like any team in the state. Good luck Corbin and stay healthy. Hope your coaches figure out your offense

I honestly think the Frederick Douglass defense was blitzing and applying so much pressure to Corbin that what little offense that was produced was just a bonus. I honestly couldn't believe that Corbin was able to get some short runs for gains against FD. Just a defensive battle all the way. But man, what a game. Game of inches...either team could have won that one. Smile

Bull, what did you think of the play calling for Corbin on offense?  Particularly, in the four or five trips they were at or inside the redszone? Did they open it up enough to suit you?

I'm impressed with Elam's abilities to make throws under pressure. "The Kid" is just a baller. After watching the game in person, both defenses were just so aggressive it was hard for anyone to do anything much. Thats why it was a game of field position. It's one thing to want more points but 6 was enough. I'll be honest, it was hard to see everything without missing the big hits. But I saw kids open downfield, but the blitzing of FD was spot on, and it just didn't allow for Elam to see the open receivers. He was just trying to get away from the pressure with little time. They were there at times but for the two teams' style of play, it complimented each other's defense to the point that no one could hardly move the ball more than a few 1st downs and then punt. Bart knows what he's got. But I think it wouldn't hurt to put a few more wrinkles in. But I also don't think Corbin will face a defense like FD the rest of the year. I think when Corbin faces whoever it is in the 3rd round, Covington Catholic or Boyle County, the battle will be downfield, not at the line of scrimmage like the FD game. As quick as the ball was snapped you could almost count hurry up and pass and that's not enough time to get down field looks. Only when the QB was dodging blitzers was he able to make throws downfield somewhat. I haven't witnessed a defensive battle like that before honestly. Just a shoving match and Corbin definitely did a great job. I was impressed honestly. They played hard. I think no injuries so that's all you can ask for. Corbin is no doubt a contender and to me they are capable of winning any team they play after I saw that game. Make no mistake about it.... They are right there.
