Coach Talk

Double Tap Kap
A big key to success in football is creating mismatches. Thanks to great numbers out of the backfield, our team took that to heart this past week.

Pit Bull Blood Dogs
Don't get too discouraged, Pit Bull Blood Dogs! There really is still a ton of football left to be played. The next few opponents might glance at the win-loss record and foolishly believe they have a cakewalk. You've got them exactly where you want them... deploy your best possible starting lineup and they won't see it coming!
