BC 2011

In 2011 BC will try to rebound from one of the worst seasons in school history. The Cadets will have a new scheme on both sides of the ball. Offensively, the Cadets will most likely start 7 seniors (including QB & TB), 1 junior, and 3 sophomores, working primarily out of the I-formation. Look for a good balance of run and pass with a lot of the passing game coming off of play action. The offensive line will be asked to go from a finesse, 2-point stance scheme to a hand in the ground, attacking style of blocking. The success of the offense will depend greatly on how quickly the O-line can improve and gel as the season progresses. The offense will be at its best when it is able to establish some sort of running game and pick its spots with play action.

Defensively, the Cadets will be young with only 3 seniors expected to start on opening night. The defense will primarily be seen in a 4-3 look. The D-line is a little undersized but appear to be quite adept at getting to the passer. With the lack of size up front the line backing corps will be counted on to make a lot of tackles. There's a good combination of youth and experience at the position but they've got to be players for this defense to be good. The secondary is arguably the strongest unit on the team and will hopefully not be counted on as much as they were last year.

Special teams will be more of a question than usual. Throughout camp the kicking and punting competition was up for grabs and through the Calvary scrimmage seems to still be at that point.

It takes time to come back from 1-9. However, a state playoff birth is not an unreasonable goal. Jenkins will be extremely tough but games against Windsor, Bradwell, and Groves will determine what kind of year the Cadets will have. Losses to any of the other region foes, outside of Camden, and BC will be playing for pride only down the stretch. Two tough opponents early should prove to be beneficial heading into region play as Camden will probably be the only team better than those two.

*BC will only play 3 true road games.

*The Savannah High game has been moved to September 17th @ Memorial Stadium.

*The trip to Camden will only be BC's 2nd since being the last team other than Camden to win the region.

*Region 3-AAAAA is matched up with 4-AAAAA for the 1st round. Region 4 includes McEachern, Hillgrove, Harrison, and North Cobb.

Region 3 teams are in the 1st couple of minutes.
