Running game big for Scotties By JOHN VERSERGlasgow Daily Times “And then a couple of times we lost containment. When you lose containment, the guy buys time. I don’t care if Deion Sanders is trying to cover me - we’re both pretty old now - but I believe if I had enough time I’d finally get open.”
Glasgow needed just three plays on offense to knot the score. Lamar Howard ran for 22 yards and Griffin Smith had a five-yard run before Howard’s 13-yard score knotted the game. The Scotties needed just four more plays for their second score. Tyler Lindsey found John Allen for a 10-yard pass and Sullivan ran the ball for 20 yards. Allen moved the ball to the 1-yard line on a nine-yard run before Smith punched it in from one yard out. Smith scored his second touchdown on Glasgow’s next possession, also a 1-yard score, to put the Scotties up three scores to one. Glasgow rolled over Logan for a 5-1 win. Howard and Smith each scored on the first offensive possession and the Scotties held the Cougars scoreless. Sullivan scored on a 21-yard run to give Glasgow a 3-0 lead. Logan’s only score came on a busted play when the Cougars’ quarterback rolled in for a 15-yard touchdown. Glasgow’s freshmen added a pair of scores to round out the night. Glasgow ran the ball effectively against all three teams Friday night, using a mix of running backs. Lindsey also thought his receivers and quarterback played well. “We knew what some of them could do,” Lindsey said. “We had Blake (Perkins) there and Lamar (Howard) back there that played a whole lot last year. We knew that they would take some hits and give some punches. Lamar, we kept him on offense, which made him fresher. I thought our receivers were able to get loose a time or two on little misdirection stuff. “I thought Tyler threw the ball pretty well today. I thought every ball he threw was pretty much on target. We had pretty good pass protection.” The Scotties travel to Warren East next Friday for their final scrimmage. They open up the season Aug. 30 against Allen County-Scottsville in the T.J. Samson Bowl.
