Halloween nightmare at Community Stadium

This is one the Yellow Jackets need to forget.

The Whitley County Colonels thrashed Woodford 47-0 in a horror show of epic proportions for Jacket fans. Woodford County failed to produce in every aspect of the game. Quaterback Steven Duckworth looked uncharacteristically shakey. The O-line couldn't contain the Whitley pass rush. The normally fleet Yellow Jacket receivers looked like they were mired in mud and couldn't get out of coverage. The defense couldn't stop the Colonel option attack, frequently loosing contain, and when they were in position, they missed tackles.

The defensive struggles were no surprise. This has been a season long story line, but I was shocked that the offense failed to produce a single point.

I told Duck last night that sometimes there are just games like this. You have to put them out of your head and move along. The Jackets have at least two more games. They will have to show their mental toughness and right the ship fast.

Johnson Central thumped Ashland Blazer 41-6 creating a three way tie for second in the district.
