Mountain League Playoffs rd 2
Posted: November 10th, 2014, 8:37 am
Thought last week might've been the last post in this line for 2014.
But the league enters round 2 with a 4-0 postseason showing in round one.
Things will get sticky in round 2. 2 teams play each other, and the other two enter the weeks games as the lower seed.
Clearfield vs Somerset @ Richland
The Bison make the 2 hour trip to face a team that dusted themselves off quite well a week earlier from their first loss in 12 months. I've always had a soft spot for the Golden Eagles, and they are the favorites as should be. However I see the Bison linemen gaining control of trenches and Clearfield pulls the upset.
Clearfield 35 Somerset 31
Huntingdon @ Tyrone
The series stands at 43-38-4 in favor of the cats. And they are healthy and gaining confidence. While Tyrone has outscored Huntingdon 202-44 in the last 4 meetings, it would be Very Easy for the home team to look ahead to Mount Union or Central, and a couple breaks could put the Eagles in trouble.
I don't believe coach Wilson and staff allow that to happen.while the next few meetings between these 2 look to get tighter and more competitive, it starts with small steps
Tyrone 35-14
****** feature game
Central @ Mount Union
The dragons younger guys are battle tested now and gaining confidence and travel to Mount Union to for a big exam in the form of top seed and unbeaten Mount Union. The Trojans are arguably the fastest and most talented team in D6AA. A lot of people have been waiting to see this.
This one comes down to the wire, and the Dragons have been there twice.
Central 25 - 20
