This Saturday's championship game will pit the two top teams in 5A against each other in a highly anticipated re-match. These teams met in week 3 in what turned into a defensive battle in which BTW went on to win 27-24. This game however should turn out quite differently. The Hornet offense will look much different and much improved; week 3 was star Jordy Albert's first game back but now he has stepped up his game, and will play much better Saturday. He will be accompanied by running back Isaac Bennett, who has had monster season, the two were responsible for all 5 touchdowns last week. Because this is a two dimensional offense, you stop the run then you have to stop the pass, you stop the pass, then you have your hands full with the running game. In this game Coach Hall should abandon the two qb system and play Albert the entire game as they scored more when he is on the field then off. Another advantage that the Hornets have is a strong offensive line, they are all seniors who can play both the run and pass effectively. ''We are hungry. We want more, whether its giving the qb time or blocking for the running back,'' said Senior lineman Jordan Simmons on their success, ''Our goal is to dominate the line of scrimmage. Games are lost and won in the trenches'' he added. I agree completely and in they will have another great showing as they have all season. The words that best describe the de
fense is methodical, dominating, or unstoppable. The Hornet defense has had 7 shutouts this season and opponents are only averaging 8 points a game. Whether it is defending the run or the pass you can always count on a big play. ''When we play them we know that we can stop the run so when we do stop the run they got to pass and if our d-line knows they are going to pass we are going to get pressure on the QB which causes INT's so really we are able to stop them is because we already know the other teams game plan,'' Senior defensive lineman Derrick Alexander said about their solid play. What separates them from every other defense is that they are consistent throughout the entire game whether it is the first play of the game or the last play of the game. Derrick Alexander, Dillon O'Carroll, and William Whayne
have been solid along the line while Dante Barnett and Tyler Lockett make great plays in the secondary. This game should be good but will end up in BTW's favor. The Achilles heel for Booker T. in the prior meeting was the inability to move the ball and to defend the pass however things have changed, ''we will win as long as we play team football and keep our heads up.'' The Hornets are on a roll, the offense, defense are on the same page, and ''we want to win.bad.'' said Senior Dillon O'Carroll speaking for the team. There is no debate, HORNETS WIN STATE 28-7.
