This one could be very rough for the Rams. Work on what you can in the passing game against a very good Highlands secondary, try and solidify things in the run game where you can but Getting out healthy needs to be the primary goal. This game looks a lot different than it did even last year when it was a running clock. The environment will still be a good experience for a young team. The last time we went to highlands, these Sophomore players were still in the stands. So it’s likely to be a shock on its own. Obviously you want to win them all, but coming out and competing and getting out healthy will be a win for me. I think it will be very difficult for the Rams to see the red zone, let alone the end zone. Love my Rams but can’t even go with my heart in this one.

That being said though…these types of games need to continue to be on the schedule. Maybe you catch a top 10 5 or 6A school on a down year and get a competitive game every 3 years or so. But there’s nothing wrong with having games on the schedule like this, as long as you have the roster numbers to stay healthy.
