We picked up a quality win at Homecoming that showed an effort that will need to be repeated under tougher conditions on the road versus Emory & Henry. The David Arguad story is a great one and to see him apply importance to his football career and this team is really inspiring. In the mud, Teley Tate is a tough match-up, but the offensive linemen, TEs, and FBs who open those holes never get enough credit.
As a team we have to take the approach that every week we have a major point to prove. Without an edge, we become average real quick. This is easy to talk about, but takes real discipline to apply it every week. There is not a team on schedule we cannot beat, but there is not an opponent out there where BC’s “B” game would be sufficient. It was good to turn off the turnover spigot, and we will push the emphasis on our defense to work to get turnovers which have been in short supply.
In every game we have won this year we have had a special teams score and we are a team that needs these extras. Thanks to the fans who braved tough conditions on Saturday, but when you gather at the bell at the game’s end, I do think we are keeping alive a great tradition.
Although our focus is week to week I will address the ODAC results which put BC in the play-off picture to clear disinformation from DNR. I believe that RMC will show up in November at 6-2 and 4-0 in ODAC. We will need to beat RMC, they will need to beat HSD at home in week 10 and there will be three 5-1 teams on top of the ODAC at season’s end who are all Tri-Champions. In the three way tie-breaker BC goes by the “Rose Bowl rule” (team with most distant Play-off opportunity- 2005). The only thing we control in this scenario is Winning Out. The focus in house here is day to day. We are facing an angry team in Emory on Saturday who did not recover from their difficult loss against HSD two weeks ago. They too, will be having a point to prove on Saturday.
