Rossville-Maur Hill FB Game Progress

In the first quarter,  Maur Hill tried an on-side kick which didn't go ten yards.  The Dawgs scored in less than one minute.  Maur Hill then used a long drive, including two 4th down conversions to tie the game at 7-7.

The Dawgs added two TDs in the second quarter with drives that took less than a handful of plays on each.  The Ravens had long many play drives that eventually faltered on the fourth down.  Time of possession was dominated by the Ravens,  but not so the score as the half ended with the Dawgs up 21-7.

No scoring in the third quarter.  The high scoring Raven offense has been brought back to earth by the Dawg defense and the teams traded possessions for the duration of the quarter.

In the fourth quarter,  the scoring drought was broken by the Ravens with 6:18 remaining.  The Ravens defense stopped the Dawgs after 3 plays and a punt and started their march to the Dawgs goal line.  With less than two minutes remaining,  the Ravens had the ball first and goal from the six.  But, the Dawg defense kept them from gaining even a yard and took possession with just over a minute left.   At that point they could run the clock out for the 21-14 win.

The Dawgs received theBi-District championship plaque.

CJ Maur Hill Game Prediction

From the Capital-Journal:

Both Maur Hill and Rossville survived stern tests in last week’s playoff openers with the Ravens rallying past Mission Valley 27-18 and Rossville outlasting Pleasant Ridge 36-14. The Bulldawgs were up just 16-14 in the third quarter before Garrett Carver broke a 28-yard touchdown run and then hit Bo Reeves on a 42-yard scoring pass to break the game open. Carver finished with 249 rushing and passing yards and Tyree Sowers added 123 yards rushing. Maur Hill, meanwhile, was in even bigger danger of being upset, down 18-7 at halftime to Mission Valley. But the Ravens outscored Mission Valley 20-0 in the second half to record their eighth win, the most during Jermaine Monroe’s tenure. Dylan Smith had a rushing and receiving touchdowns and Jack Caudle threw for 118 yards. For the season, Caudle has thrown for 1,584 yards and 20 touchdowns, while Carver has led Rossville with 1,160 yards and 9 touchdowns passing and 964 yards and 16 touchdowns rushin.

Prediction: Rossville over Maur Hill

PLEASANT RIDGE (5-3) AT ROSSVILLE (6-2)

From the C apital-Journal

Missing the playoffs last year after capturing three straight Class 3A state championships, Rossville has enjoyed a big bounce-back season. The Bulldawgs’ only losses have come to 2A No. 2 Silver Lake (17-14) and Riley County (40-25) and they opened the season with a good win over a strong Centralia team. Garrett Carver has stepped in at starting quarterback and carried on the success enjoyed by recent Rossville quarterbacks, throwing for 1,029 yards and seven touchdowns and rushing for 846 yards and 15 scores. Pleasant Ridge also leans heavily on its quarterback and Colton Comer has delivered in his first year as starter, rushing for 774 yards and 11 touchdowns and throwing for 817 yards and nine scores. The Rams were oh-so close to picking up a program-making victory earlier this year, falling 29-28 to Nemaha Central in the final minutes. The other losses came to Maur Hill and Troy.

Prediction: Rossville over Pleasant Ridge
