1) HT is 2-0 without a truly close game yet.
2) Logan has never played HT, therefore they have no basis to assume they "play inferior" competition or "aren't big or fast enough."
3) HT is coached by Bob Jacoby, one of the top coaches in the entire state.
I think everyone needs to take a deep breath, and realize that despite early success, Logan is far from unbeatable, especially considering we still have no idea just how good the 2008 Lancaster team is.
Locos,
I hope I'm not being arrogant. I get knots in my stomach right before ANY game Logan plays and it is good to have a healthy respect for your opponent. Having said that, I still don't think HT is in it IF Logan plays their game. Jacoby, much like Lutz, can coach but he can't suit up. As far as rushing goes, I wish we were better at it, too, but for whatever reason, it hasn't shown up yet. It hasn't been needed in the first two games, either. Logan is playing a different offense this year. We have all but two games on turf which is a faster track. We're not going to be "three yards and a cloud of dust" team this year. As teams watch game films and see how we spread the defenses out, they are going to make adjustments to slow down our spread/isolation offense. That means pulling back some guys from a stacked line of scrimmage. I guarantee you will see some running plays busted out in the next few games. But we aren't going to be the Logan team we were last year that got stuffed in the playoff game. Our passing game this year with short passes getting Mason isolated out in the flat is sometimes the equivalent of a running game. Arrogant? Maybe it seems that way but I just look down the schedule and don't see anyone matching our talent. I posted on a thread earlier this year that Logan would go 9-1 or 10-0 with Lancaster being the only loss. I also said on that post that if Logan gets by Lancaster in the first game, look out. I stand by that statement.
