BC(1-3) vs. #4 Thomson(4-0)
Thomson alum's Casper, Jasper, and Danny
The Cadets face off against the 4th ranked Bulldogs who will be the best team to play under the lights at Memorial Stadium this year. Thomson has a long rich football tradition and is an absolute top-notch program. They have won 5 state championships with the most recent coming in 2002. There alumni list includes 100+ college players with a good number of them playing at SEC or ACC schools. The most famous football alum is Ray Guy who punted in college and the NFL and who the Collegiate Punter of the Year award is named after. Thompson head coach Luther Welsh eclipsed the 300 career win mark earlier this year. He ranks 6th in all-time wins in the state of Georgia and is currently 2nd on the active list. The Bulldogs have looked very good in convincing wins over Salem, Jefferson Co., and Washington-Wilkes; all very solid teams. The JV team played the entire 2nd Half in last weeks win over Hephzibah after being up 35-0 at the Half. The Bulldogs are a run first team but are very capable of throwing the ball with success. LaBrandon Hudson is a Senior Fullback and the # 1 weapon on offense. After rushing for 1,185 yards last year, he is averageing 8.0 yards per carry this year. Senior Anthony "Pooh" Erwwin is more of a running QB who ran for more than 900 yards last year and with Hudson form a lethal combination. The defense is stout and the 1st teamers have only given up 10 points all year. The special teams are extremely solid.-- The Cadets are going to struggle early and often on both sideds of the ball. I expect to see a number of big plays from Thomson's offense. BC will have a hard time keeping up with the speed and do not see us stopping Thomson's 1st team from scoring by any method other than turnovers. T.J. Telfair will be relied on heavily to go at Thomson straight ahead instead of sideline to sideline. Caleb Collins will probaly see some chances to make plays in the passing game. BC will try to control the clock as much as possible to keep it close, but getting 1st downs will be rare. I will be shocked if we are within 3 touchdows at the half. BC just needs to get better and playing a far superior team can only help in the coming weeks. The Cadets will most likely put up a couple of scores in the 2nd half and make it more respectable than it should be. Thompson-42 Benedictine-13
