5A question

Hillcrest is typically very athletic, however they also tend to be a bit undisciplined. If I had to guess, I would say this has the chance to be a pretty close football game.
 
Coach Baller always said he wanted to model
His program his program on Morris. He’s a buttoned up guy, for sure.

He bit his tongue my senior year as a first year teacher/coach …. What we were doing, he’d not allow under his watch. But it was only his job to watch then, not have an opinion. Running backs coach … He was cool enough, but he was not one of us.
 
Two very different styles of offense here as Triad runs triple option and Hillcrest runs 4 or 5 guys out wide often. The thing they have in common is how strong the defenses are, I wouldn't expect to see many points on the board. Also would be my pick for game of the week in the 618.
All of the computer based rankings have the Knights as a favorite, although a very slight one. I have heard of Hillcrest having some athletes, but Triad has some as well. I also like the odds of the winner of this game to take down Mahomet-Seymour/Jacksonville the following week.
