WhudeyCHS - it's interesting that it seems no one gives your 8-0 Chilhowie a shot v Riverheads and y'all are the big underdogs (if it happens again).
On the flip side, no one gives 8-0 Patrick Henry a shot to beat Chilhowie and they are the big underdogs in this game.
Thoughts on the game? or programs?
(remember no one outside of Northumberland gave the Indians a chance either - and NHS is 7-0 and hoping to make it 10-0. It can be done....)
I think Chilhowie has grown up a lot since last years team as far as taking on, possibly, Riverheads. They learned a lot from that experience. It has carried over to this year. I do know that PH has played a weak schedule but they are a good team. I think chewing up the clock will slow up some of the scoring though but Chilhowie has a little more depth and speed. PH has 2 good running backs.
Chilhowie has weapons all over the backfield and receivers. Plus they have a couple of RBs on the sideline waiting to go in. Chilhowie's OL is fast and blocks very well. They open up big holes and their pass blocking is really good. One thing about PH is that they tell you where they are going and it is up to the defense to stop them.
I would say one weak spot in Chilhowie's armor is their passing D but it has really improved over the last several weeks.
It will be close at the beginning but I think if Chilhowie shows up to play like they know how to play and are not over confident, they will pull away in the 3rd.
Probably around 35-14
