Know the Opponent: William Blount

Welcome to a special Thursday edition of “Know The Opponent,” as Jefferson County travels to William Blount tonight to face off against the Governors. Both teams had a bye last week and both squads come in with 2-3 records on the season and 0-2 in region play.

William Blount on Offense:

William Blount will run a shotgun formation with 3 WR set for most of the game. Tyler Key, of William Blount will see some of the carries , while Tommy Myers will see some as well. With the two, they will run down hill and try to punish you for four quarters. On the passing side of things, don’t look for much, as Austin Myrick tries to beat you with his legs more so than his arm. Attempting only 1 pass over 10 yards in the film that I watched.

William Blount on Defense:

On defense they will run a 3-4 defense with some walk up backers at times. They play the run very well, but think they will struggle at times with the Patriots’ talented receivers.

Prediction:

I think that the Patriots will come out with something to prove this week , after having a week off and the way they lost the game against Bradley Central. Look for Jenkins and Co to have big games and Jefferson County Rolls, 34-14.
