SEMIFINALS - Mount Ida @ Hazen

[Hornet68]

With the way this game is being played and the physicality of both teams involved, this could be a classic in the making. I think that if hazen comes out flat it could be a long night, but if hazen jumps out fired up and gets a couple quick scores it may get out of hand and that can also be said for Mt. Ida much respect for the lions

this is the semis man, if you can't get fired up for this then you should probably check your pulse!!!

How big is the Hazen line?

[Hornetsfan02]

How big is the Hazen line?

I would say they average 225-230 and are all 6 foot or more

[Hornetsfan02]

I'll take that back, half of them are over 6 foot

[Pick_DA_EAGLES]

How big is the Hazen line?

Plenty big for 2A

[Hornetsfan02]

And other than DA we have man handled every line we have faced

[IdaLions]

I would say they average 225-230 and are all 6 foot or more

Our biggest guy is around 250 lbs. the second is probably 240-245 lbs. Then we got one around 205 lbs. After them we got a 175 lbs. one and the center is about 170 lbs. Our starting TE is about 150 lbs soaking wet.

probably will match up pretty well size wise. your te may have issues with Toll if he lines up at de though

[Old Scrapper]

Yep both lines are about the same size!

[CaptainSwarm25]

Y'all need to introduce that TE to a McDonald's and ice cream😂

[Outloud]

Well has anybody else heard the weather report???  Why can't we play one weekend with no rain!!!!!!! Tired of toting dang rain gear to every game!!!!

I have a 90% chance of showers and t-storms for the north end of the county for Friday night.

[IdaLions]

Well he has played running back his whole life😂 We have had injuries and such so Coach White needed a tight end, and that's how that came to be. He is one of the only players who play that isn't a senior. I also forgot to mention that our other TE is a sophomore with one year of football experience, and that experience is this year 😂 He prolly weighs around 170 or so. Heard he's a good baseball player though

[Hornetsfan02]

I'm just glad y'all arent as bad as Hampton fans. All they ever talked about was how successful they have been and how good they are. Glad to see that y'all Ida fans are humble with your success

[CaptainSwarm25]

Injuries are a killer. Especially in 2A ball. Seems to get a few teams on a yearly basis.

Well we have respect for the teams we play. Just the way we are brought up honestly.

Looks like the passing game is going to be out for Friday night

[Hornetsfan02]

Yeah it sucks all this bad weather the field was pretty bad last week and had some pretty big chunks tore up, let's just hope that forecast is lying and it actually turns out pretty on Friday 😂😂

[Old Scrapper]

Hazens D will need to be sharp to slow down LaGrange and Jackson. But on the other hand Mount Ida's D will have to play lights out to slow down Penn, Green and Toll. Any of these 5 men can break out on any play.

Since the rain is going to move in, I'm taking the Hornets 34-6 with an great performance on Defense

Ida's best defense is gona be 7 minute scoreing drives

[Pick_DA_EAGLES]

I'm thinking weather postponement until Saturday

That's what I told someone today, if hazen keeps ida from having long drives, they win big, let them have a couple clock running drives and it could be a game

Wouldn't hurt my feelings for them to play the game Thursday night

[Pick_DA_EAGLES]

I could make Thursday

[Old Scrapper]

I could make Thursday

that would ok with me

[72aDaddy]

I would say they average 225-230 and are all 6 foot or more

That is an exaggeration. They are all about the same height...probably around 5'11" and look the same or close to the same weight...between 200-210. As pick said though, plenty big for 2a.

[Bulldogfan101]

Does anyone know if there will be live feed?

[Old Scrapper]

Hazen doesn't do any live feed, not sure about Mount Ida

[Bulldogfan101]

Okay thanks Old Scrapper

[Hornetsfan02]

That is an exaggeration. They are all about the same height...probably around 5'11" and look the same or close to the same weight...between 200-210. As pick said though, plenty big for 2a.

let's see center is 6"1, 255, LG is 5"10 245, LT is 6"3 220, and the right side is the same at 5"11, 215

[jsw6f0]

Such a warm feeling on this board makes me want to say something disparaging about Hazen or Mt Ida just to stir it up.

[IdaLions]

heck i'm just happy this isn't a 12 page thread like the one on the other side of the bracket😂 I guess i'm weird, I don't find those interesting. I cherish threads like these, both teams respect each other and know that they better bring their everything. I'm very excited to see Hazen play, because i'll be frank, I think that they are the best team in 2A. But do I think we have a shot, of course, we wouldn't be in the semi finals if we didn't.

Us hazen posters aren't used to it 😂 we had 22 pages of Hampton and 10 against gurdon so it almost feels like we are in a bye week with only 3 pages 😂😂

[jdollar]

Much respect on both sides. Should be a good game weather permitting!!

[jsw6f0]

I believe posters have been banned on the Foreman thread. I hope when it's Mt Ida and Foreman at Little Rock that thread does not get out of hand.

[Pick_DA_EAGLES]

So you actually think foreman and mount ida will come watch j.c. play hazen? That's awfully sweet of them to come support the teams that beat them. 😆😆

[jsw6f0]

Shots fired.

[Legacy Lion]

Shots fired.

Nah.....just blanks. Btw, in  this tenuous spirit of camaraderie, congrats to Pick, his DA Eagles  on their improvement this year! That  said, these Lions  have shown they should never be counted out. This team is the epitome of heart and grit. Go Lions! You DO have a chance  and I bet you come out ready to go!

I cant help but question how good of a look you got at their linemen... I was on a chain crew for one of the purple bugs away games and they are a lot more chunky then 210-220lbs....

[who-knew]

I'd say more along the lines of 240-260.

thanks for the kind words of the Eagles. but rest assured i shoot no blanks. lol

[Hornetsfan02]

Just found some of the spring weights and heights for like man. Starters from this year are 6-2 217, 6-3 220, 6-1 255, 5-10 205, 5-10 no weight listed, 5-10 245, 5-8 290. Tell me where you get a 205-210 average from this...

[OLionSwag74]

Ida has a guy 6"3 245, 5"11 260, 5"10 175, 5"10 225, 5"9 155.

[Outloud]

I think the school is gonna run a bus from the high school over to the football field. Since the parking area is muddy, they figured it would ease the mud riding and getting stuck.

[Old Scrapper]

How many pass plays are y'all practicing this week? 😎

[couch-coach06]

Lol coach white isn't gona change what he does ..

[Hornetsfan02]

He probably should 😂😂

[Lions84]

Go Scraper Hornets let that Purple Haze D lead you to victory!
