Hazzard Country- Good ol' Boys, This time meaning Harm

[Bubba's Cruise]

Since this is my final year outside of maybe full sim seasons then I do want to go out winning the Heisman. Right now, he is around 100 rush yards per game so If I can keep that up then I think it will be enough for me to win it. Even though I spent a lot of upgrades on health then that still is a issue as well. I score so many points then I can easily get enough TDs for him to win it. I would also like to crack 2K passing yards which would be a record for me.

I was going to post the one game I've played before a big showdown I play tonight. But I can't get my portal to connect so i guess that will have to wait.

Go get that Heisman! The game really values QB rushing yards for the Heisman, I can’t even get my QB to crack the list

Leamon Improves Heisman Resume

A interesting test for Hazzard vs Oklahoma who is only rated a 84 compare to our 99. However, it's at their place and they are a top 15 ranked place to play and they have a QB rated 97 (with coaching boost).

Early on a pair of TD from our #1 Tim Kong one from a rocket toss and another from our new pistol bunch formation. Right before half a TD catch by the big TE would give us a 28-6 lead. Hazzard would go on to win the 3rd quarter by 14 so a blowout was here in Norman then it would get even uglier in the 4th quarter. A few key plays of note in the 2nd half a perfectly timed option pitch and Kong showed off that platinum shifty with a top 5 all time run here. Senior speedy LB Clyde O'Connor gets a 78 yard pick 6 and then Prosinki takes a drag route to the house. Another good game for our QB even if not super flashy stats he had 136 passing yard and still hasn't thrown a interceptions all year and then he added 93 rushing yards with a total of 4 TD. We also thought pass rush would be a issue this year and maybe its not as Isaac Harper broke the school record with 4 sacks in a game.

3 Game Balls - Offense
QB Leamon (88) = 10/18, 136 pass yard, 2 TD, 0 INT & 13 carries for 93 yards, 2 TD
HB Kong (91) = 14 carries for 174 yards, 3 RD, 4 BTK
TE Prosinski (95) = 5 catches for 87 yards, 2 TD

3 Game Balls - Defense
LB Cobbs (86) = 9 tackles, 2 TFL, 1 sack, 1 PBU
DE Harper (90) = 7 tackles, 4 TFL, 4 sacks
LB O'Connor (87) = 4 tackles, 1 INT, 1 TD

Damn yall smoked the schooner

[Bubba's Cruise]

Yea my team is rolling now on offense with the only question being the unknowns of defense. It's funny because I thought OKL would be sneaky tough test being on the road with an elite QB and then it wasn't. I do have a tough schedule especially the next few games so that will keep me on my toes as I've got like 4 more elite teams this year to play

Damn yall smoker the schooner

Major Test At UGA

This is a big-time test on the road vs #11 UGA with 2 more top 15 teams coming up next. A win here establishes UGA as the best team in the country, gives margin for error and pads the Heisman candidacy of our QB. This UGA team isn't quite as good as years past with a 96 rating and no super-duper elite players. Still, it's a tough SEC foe on the road.

The 1st drive we go 84 yards on 10 plays and ends up with a passing TD to our short yardage HB. We lined up in Maryland I and the play action worked even if the LB was waiting on it. They quickly answered to tie it up at 7. We cap off a 12-play drive with a short TD run in the early 2nd to go up 7. Harper continues his breakout year at DE and gets a sack on 3rd down. We hit out big TE on our favorite goal line pass and go up 21-7. A key plays this drive was a 40-yard rocket toss from the flexbone. They hit us with the super rare 81-yard TD run on 3rd down. We call one of our sort of trick plays from singleback a bootleg, jet throwback screen and it somehow works for a 32-yard TD catch. A high scoring half we lead 28-17 with 4 TDs from our Heisman hopefully

After they score to start the 3rd we answer back with a 58-yard jet option TD run from our speedy WR Mix. This puts us up 15, however they get back-to-back TDs to make this a game in the early 4th. Thankfully the 2-point conversation was no good and we still lead by 2. The reason UGA came back was the QB was on fire and we tried everything and couldn't stop him and at this point he was 25 of 27. Our star QB was banged up and since we were going to keep the ball on the ground this drive we give him some rest and we badly needed a long drive resulting in 7. With 3 minutes to go and basically all 2nd unit OL in we get the 7 on a toss play out of a power set. A key play here was a WR option picking up a 1st on 4th down. It looked like our nickel CB was for some reason playing MLB and it worked out as he get the TFL on 4th down. Before this they had it 3rd and inches. It's now 2:21 and they have 2 timeouts and we accidently score a TD as Carswell runs over someone.

We won this game, but our defense needs to play better as we aren't used to giving up 495 yards of offense. We were only 40% on 3rd down, but made up for it hitting all 4 on 4th down. A huge spotlight win for our QB and while he is getting all the attention Tim Kong is playing amazing as the #1 HB and should also win some awards. I'm not sure if it matters in the end about the defense as this powerbone offense now that we have elite team seems to be a lock for 40+ points.

Heisman Performance
This was a win for our QB beating a top 15 team and moving Hazzard up to #1 in the country. He had 4 total TD and no turnovers all while on the road. This will help his case as Delaware has 2 of the top 5 players in the race and are bound to lose games at some point. The one worrisome part was he had just 47 rushing yards as he was banged up some of the 2nd half and we didn't want to risk it. For him to win the Heisman we think he needs about 1,000 yards and 20 rushing TD

3 Game Balls - Offense
QB Leamon (88) = 104/18, 121 yards, 3 TD, 0 INT & 7 carries for 47 yards, 1 TD
HB Kong (91) = 19 carries for 118 yards & 2 catches for 28 Yards 1 TD
OG Dombrowski (84) = 6 pancakes blocks and 0 sacks filling in for a injured starter

3 Game Balls - Defense
LB Cobbs (86) = 8 tackles, 1 TFL
S Heaps (93) = 7 tackles,1 TFL. 1 INT
DE Harper (90) = 2 tackles, 2 TFL, 1 sack

Heisman QB Leamon Leaves With Injury

After the 1st quarter Hazzard is up 14-3 after a TDs from our QB. A key TFL on 3rd down by Paxson and we take over around midfield after a punt. We go up 21-7 on a Heisman caliber TD run from Leamon with 8 minutes till half. We swap TDs next them with a 71-yard wheel and us on a power toss. We are driving with timeouts in the final minutes before half when the DB jumps the out route and Leamon throws his first interception of the year. It's 28-10 at half so we lead comfortably. We score on a wildcat jet option TD to go up 25. Then bad news Leamon the star QB gets hurt in the late 3rd and will not be able to return, thankfully he can play next week. Carswell scores a short TD end of 3rd to go up 41-17. There HB gets us in the 4th and we win 49-31.

The offense continues to be basically unstoppable wit 572 yards and 6.6 per carry. The defense isn't playing the best, but a lot of that seems to be happening in the 4th. The good news Leamon will be back as it was just a minor injury and we face #4 Alabama on the road.

Heisman Performance
This hurt his case, but he still leads the race. He had his first interception of the year and missed over a quarter. He did rack up 83 yards and 3 total TD during his time. His health and can he keep up the rushing workload is the main issue.

3 Game Balls - Offense
QB Leamon (88) = 8/18, 124 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT & 6 carries for 83 yards, 2 TD
HB Kong (91) = 18 carries for 136 yards, 2 TD 7 3 catches for 56 yards, 1 TD
HB Trapp (85) = 12 carries for 60 yards, 1 TD, 3 BTK

3 Game Balls - Defense
DT Mondeaux (94) = 4 tackles, 1 TFL, 1 sack
DE Harper (90) = 1 sack
LB Cobbs (86) = 5 tackles, 1 TFL, 1 PBU

Hopefully Leamon bounces back in the next game!

10 Midseason Storylines - 2037

1. Leamon #1 In Heisman Race
He's still #1 ahead of a QB from Maryland, WR from Colorado and 2 Delaware players. We would project those teams to have losses coming soon so as long as we win out and pile up solid stats we think we will win the award for the first time. He has 774 passing yards, 64%. 11 TD and 1 Interception through the air. On the ground is why he is #1 with 515 yards, 8.9 per and 12 TD. The biggest thing will be the wear and tear and still pilling up those rush yards.

2. HB Kong Breaking Out
The 224 pound elusive bruiser was the flexbone FB the last 2 years combining for about 1,000 yards and 3 TD. This year he in 6 games he is already at 737 yards, 7 TD, 9.2 per and a pair of receiving TDs. We think this should get him in the race for the Doak Walker award which we have only won one time. His yards are 4th in the country, but he is behind on TDs. Kong has 95 speed, 92 accel, 99 agility, 94 break tackle, 97 change of direction, 90 trucking, 88 strength with platinum shifty and downhill

3. Short Yardage HB Trapp Impressing
He isn't the only HB impressing us Junior Daryl Trapp (85) has carved out a bigger role then we expected. He is our short yardage back so he only plays in the power I and Maryland I. He has 97 break tackle, 96 change of direction, 98 agility, 94 trucking, 95 strength with platinum balanced and downhill. He is averaging 6 yards per carry which is a lot in those formations and has 238 rushing yards and 4 total TD. This sets him up to have a bigger role next year and he is 245 pounds.

#4 Prosinski Still Awesome
Our favorite player ever has been a little slow at times as we have had some big time road games where we haven't passed as much. He still has 25 catches, 305 yards and 8 TD sitting himself up to win Mackey Award for the 3rd time. He is 6'6 and 281 pounds with high 80s overall grade in quickness, power, route running and hands plus 85 run blocking.

#5 Hufango Best OL Ever ?
He's starting at OG for us but the former 5* with elite dev is the most talented OL we have ever had and that's saying a lot. He has played 414 downs with 34 pancakes and 0 sacks. He has 5 platinum abilities with 93 run blocking and 99 strength. The scary thing just a junior with a 89 overall grade we think he comes back to school next year

#6 Massive Year for DE Harper
We mentioned preseason we were worried about pass rush and we no longer are thanks to the former 5* with elite dev. He has 14 TFL and 8 sacks and could break the school record for sacks if he keeps up this pace. He has platinum grip breaker and pocket disruptor with 95 power move, 99 strength and just solid run stopping and quickness. The bad news the next man up has just 2.5 sacks

#7 2 Key Players 1 Week Away
Starting DE Spencer Stubbs (88) and SS Regie Addison (91) are both 1 week away so will unfortunately miss the top 5 game vs Alabama. We are a little thin at S so we needed Addison back the most.

#8 FS Heaps Has Stepped Up
In the absence of Addison Erick Heaps a transfer from ND has played amazing and we haven't missed him. Heaps has a team leading 38 tackles with 2 interceptions. We didn't think he was as good as the 95 grade showed, but he has proved us wrong.

#9 Defense Needs to Be Better
We are giving up 25.3 a game and 306 in the air. Even though our offense can cover up a lot of sins we need the defense to be better if we are going to win every game.

#10 Pretty Tough Schedule Remaining
@ #4 Bama - Could this be a loss on the road vs a 99 overall team ?
Kentucky - just a 71 overall and at home
@ #15 Auburn - 94 overall and on the road
South Carolina - they are terrible so this will be ugly
@ TN - Just 83 overall but on the road
#6 Michigan State - 97 overall and now a top 10 team, but its at home.

[Bubba's Cruise]

I haven't played the next game yet and its as tough as it gets on the road vs a 99 overall team. I love the wear and tear system the game has because it makes me decide and I can't give him 20 carries a game. I typically stick to the up the middle ground game vs those elite defenses on the road. So I wouldn't expect a major stat game from him

Hopefully Leamon bounces back in the next game!

Shocker In Tuscaloosa

A brief preview we are on the road vs #4 Alabama a fellow 99 overall team. Tim Kong gets things started off on the 1st drive with as good of a run as you will see going 73 yards for a TD. We get in the redzone next drive, but are held to 3. Our defense closes out the 1st with another stop and they are playing lights out. The bama defense would hold up as well holding us to just 3 points the next 2 drives with us in the + side of the field. In the late 2nd our defense gets another 3 and out. Our QB gets a TD run on 4th and goal a big TD before half. We add 3 more and we are up 23-0 and we have held them to just 78 yards in this half

Our defense starts off the 2nd half yet another 3 and out, but unfortunately a holding cost us 4 points and we have to settle for 3 again. With a 26-0 lead now we never expected to be up this much. Our QB hadn't done a ton today, but a highlight 34 yard TD gives him his 2nd of the day on the ground. When the 3rd quarter ended they were still less then 100 yards and we go on to blow them out 47-0 sending a statement to the rest of the country. The statement this could be one of the best teams of all time if the defense plays anything like this. The 99 graded Alabama had no chance even at home we win the yards battle 538-160. We did get a few backups in the 4th but not as many as we will the next few.

Heisman Performance
We threw it a little too much tonight but a lot of those were in the 2nd half. James stats prob look better then he played in reality the passing stats were about his average 138 yards, 1 TD and 0 int. The rushing stats was why this game helped his stock with of course the blow out win as well. He had just 8 carries for 71 yards and 3 TD on the ground. He is now a huge betting favorite and with 2 easy games coming up look for him to go off in those. The biggest news even following the bye week he was #1. Also before the bye week our HB Tim Kong was also in the top 5.

3 Game Balls - Offense
QB Leamon (88) =17/28, 138 yards, 1 TD & 8 carries for 71 yards, 3 TD
HB Kong (91) = 14 carries for 183 yards, 1 TD, 7 BTK & 1 catch for 33 yards
C Hufango (88) = 6 pancake blocks, 0 sacks in 3 quarters

3 Game Balls - Defense
S Heaps (93) = 9 tackles, 2 TFL, 2 PBU
DE Harper (90) = 1 sack making him 9 for the year
CB Cash (96) = 6 tackles, 4 PBU
