Winnebago falls in season opener to Wakefield
The season opener didn't go the way the Winnebago Football team would of liked as the Indians lost 64-36 at home to Wakefield Friday night.
It sounds like the Indians turned in a good performance on offense, but struggled on defense.
Winnebago (0-1) looks to get back on track Friday night when they take on Plainview (0-1) on the road.
The Pirates lost 50-20 at West Holt this past Friday night.
I think the Indians have a chance to do well in and win this game.
Winnebago did some nice things on offense last week, now it's just a matter of getting things ironed out defensively.
Plainview had their struggles on offense and defense too so this should be a good, entertaining ball game, and most likely a high scoring affair.
The Indians have to think they have a legitimate shot to win this game because they do, in my opinion.
I look for Winnebago to flip the script Friday night, and go out there and have a good showing.
Win or lose, I'm sure the Indians will play very hard, and give a tremendous effort.
Winnebago has to work on being physical at the line of scrimmage, and opening up holes in the run game as well as stopping the run.
The Indians have to be fierce competitors, and keep playing until the final whistle.
A game is never truly over until the final whistle is blown, and so Winnebago has to believe they're in games at all times.
Even if the Indians get down by a double digit deficit...they have to keep fighting and working hard no matter what.
If memory serves me correct Winnebago came back from a pretty large deficit against Cedar Bluffs a couple of years back so anything can happen.
That's why the Indians have to keep fighting and battling until the final whistle...you just never know what is going to happen in the game of football.
Winnebago is a very capable team, they just need to shore up defensive mistakes made last week.
The Indians have to go out there and tackle well, limit turnovers, execute on offense, run and pass the ball well, and limit big plays.
Making big plays would also help Winnebago out big time, in my opinion.
