Scotties hope to rebound against Tigers

Glasgow hopes to rebound from a disappointing T.J. Samson Bowl as the Scotties tackle Caldwell County on Friday night.
The Scotties take on the host Tigers in the second game of the Trice Hughes Chevrolet Bowl in Princeton. Kickoff is set for approximately 8:30 p.m. Lone Oak faces Crittenden County in the 6 p.m. opener.
Correcting defensive mistakes on Friday will be a key for the Scotties. Glasgow’s defense gave up 319 yards in a 42-26 loss to Allen County-Scottsville last week.
“We just didn’t do a very good job of tackling,” Glasgow coach Billy Lindsey said. “We didn’t play with any kind of emotion. We didn’t play with the intensity level that we needed to play with. I think most of it came from mental mistakes than it did from physical mistakes. There might have been a time or two where we didn’t make a play, but a lot of times it seems like we just didn’t get after it. We weren’t very aggressive.
“I think the big thing for us defensively is for us to get in position, know your assignment and execute. And that’s what it comes down to.”
The Scotties will see their second straight spread offense to open the season against Caldwell. The Tigers put up 341 yards of offense in a 37-29 loss at Madisonville-North Hopkins to open the season. Caldwell ran the ball 26 times for 156 yards and threw for 185 yards on 23-of-42 passing.
The Tigers are led on offense by quarterback Will Barnes, who is the coach’s son. Barnes carried the ball six times for 25 yards in addition to his 185 passing yards.
“They’ve got more guys that they want to get out in space and get plays to,” Lindsey said. “Sometimes they’ll be no backs in the shotgun, sometimes they’ll have two, sometimes there’s one. They’ve got some guys that are quick, but they’re not very big. They all look pretty athletic. So we’ve got to try to match our personnel the best we’ve got to stop what they do.”
Barnes threw to seven different receivers in last week’s loss, six of which had three or more receptions. Eric Faughn had a team-high five catches for 60 yards. Jaquan Glover also caught four passes for 40 yards.
Caldwell’s running attack was led by Brandon Sigler, who rushed six times for 80 yards.
Lindsey said better execution would be a key on Friday to his team’s defensive success.
“When we executed, when we played like we were supposed to, it worked,” Lindsey said about last week’s game. “The thing about it is we’ve got to be consistent. We’ve got to do that all the time.”
The coach also added that disguising looks against the no-huddle spread is something that his team will have to do defensively.
“It’s a cat and mouse game a lot of times because they’ve got all that time to sit and look at you,” Lindsey said. “I think that’s what we’ve got to be able to do, not get predictable as far as what we’re playing on defense so they don’t know when we’re coming and when we’re not and things like that.”
Although Glasgow gave up 319 yards against Allen, the Scotties put up 317 yards of offense against the Patriots. In comparison, Caldwell gave up 412 yards to Madisonville-North Hopkins last week. The Tigers yielded 154 yards on the ground and 258 through the air.
