Watched Evangel & Farmerville on my laptop from the Jam at the Joe (LaTech) last night.

Evangel won 35-0 but didn't look good on the offensive side of the ball until the second half. The only points they got in the first half were two TD's on a blocked field goal that was returned all the way and a kickoff return. Dwight Gatlin, a DB returned the kickoff.

Evangel's receivers dropped several passes that would have made it more one sided.

Farmerville will be tough for anybody to run on with a couple of near 300 pound tree stumps in the middle of their line. Trae Ford is one of them. I never caught the other guy's name.

They have some good skill guys but I don't see them having much of a passing game unless they set it up by running the ball.

They opened the game with two 80 yard drives but couldn't score from inside the twenty.

Vece Braggs, their quarterback, looks like the best player on the team. He had several long runs on both planned and improvised plays. Anyone who has been around Farmerville football for the last 35-40 years knows the Braggs name and associates it with spectacular athletes.

Farmerville junior running back, J.T. Brown, had a 61 yard run.

How many of the games did you watch? The heat was unreal, with turf temps in the 170s during midday and near 150 up to 20 feet above the turf... Did you happen to see the RB from Calvary I mentioned earlier?
