DLS - Poly Streaming
- Thread starter Irish_Cheers
- Start date
De La Salle is in the red zone with 2 minutes left in the first. Broadcast said they have more TOs so far in 2015 than they did in all of 2014. Have added two more tonight.
0-0 tie with Poly
0-0 tie with Poly
Add a safety to make it 16-0 DLS. Defense is carrying the offense. Poly's offense is very limited despite the athletes.
Asiasi with his second TD catch. Less than 2 minutes left in the first half, DLS leads 22-0
I wouldn't say Poly isn't very good at all. Athletically, they compare well to any team up here and have played a pretty good game on defense. They are the perfect example of what poor QB play can do to a team. All that said, they shouldn't have been nationally ranked.

Despite mistakes by DLS this one is not going to be as close as I had it in the pick 'ems weekly contest, Though both ranked in the top 10 for CA the DLS team is simply too much for Poly to handle from what I've seen so far. The +7-14 by DLS by many of the NCP fans playing the Pick em's contest looks like it will easiy hold up. While still an entire 2nd 1/2 to go this is shaping up to be a DLS win by 20+ unless I'm wrong.
That's how you drive the nail in. Spartans get first drive in second half and take nearly 7 minutes off the clock before a Sweeney one yard dive.
DLS leads Poly 30-6

In reference to my post predicting a rather large and disproportionate win by the DLS Spartans I am simply bewildered that they continually are not clearly set prior to snapping the ball. In some instances there is still "set movement" as the ball is being snapped. Have seen in prior year's, just bewildered that they are not flagged on a regular basis for what appears to be an unfair infraction [?]. It will not matter however in this case as the Spartan's are simply a superior team to Poly & I always love NorCal beating SoCal.

Agreed on the not being set part. I am sitting here amazed how that is not called. It is a false start on 80 percent of their plays.
I don't get it. This is basic football 101.
I don't get it either... But they have been doing this for years, and as long as one player doesn't jump ahead of the others it never gets called. Maybe it's not actually against the rules if they shift/slide/whateveryacallit forward together but not into the neutral zone before the snap... I don't know, just guessing based on the lack of flags.
Yes, Malik Henry (Florida State) didn't make the trip. However, he was only completing 49 percent of his passes this year. He would certainly be a step up, but wasn't setting it on fire either.
Hard to call Henry their starting QB when he is at his 3rd school in 4 years, and had to sit out the first part of the season because of transfer issues I believe. I do think he keeps this game closer because that QB tonight missed some open throws, that's for sure. But he was still splitting time since he could first suit up. But DLS offense kept at it from start of the second half and wore down Poly's defense.
Not a false start as its a rolling start. We do this drill at practice everyday. Only flags that are thrown are because of opposing coaches whining about getting jumped on early.
Invalid point. Momentum isn't illegal motion. There's a reason we're not called on it. It isn't illegal. We practice this unison every day.
It's rather surprising that more teams, at all levels of football, don't utilize the quick-snap ploy. It certainly seems to work well for the best prep program in California.
Thanks Ted Smithers for letting some of us know our eye sight is not failing - the video is an accurate depiction of what we see on a regular basis. While DLS fans insist it is a "perfectly legal rolling start", I go with the narrator of the video's description that it is simply "tricky". Surprised more teams don't take advantage in their run games.
Is it illegal to create lanes that my dead grandma can run thru? They just blow people off the line! I bet 55-0 next week against DO.
I doubt G61 has ever been to a DLS game in person, except for the two blowout losses Folsom had, but last night I attended my first in person DLS game this year. Asiasi and Tagaloa are VERY impressive. It is not hard to picture the havoc they would have caused last year had DLS and Folsom played. Browning would have been running for his life, and DLS certainly would have rolled Folsom again.
I don't know. Maybe the defense should take a step back and use a rolling start in unison with DLS. They start to roll, the d line starts to roll. Loved the centers pad level on that video. If I had horses I would run the defense that Alabama used against Miami in the 92 title game. When they went cover 0 and basically played punt block. I would cut their line and try to get one on ones with their backs. Letting their linemen run free to cause havoc downfield is crazy.
It is Illegal Motion if any player from Team A (offense) is in motion towards his opponent's goal at the snap, or when two or more players are in motion simultaneously when the ball is snapped.
It is an Illegal Shift if all 11 players on Team A are not simultaneously motionless for 1 full second prior to a player going in motion or the ball being snapped.
The rolling start violates both rules, but I would flag it as an Illegal Shift since they are clearly not simultaneously motionless for 1 second prior to the snap. It's the same penalty no matter which rule is violated. It's not a dead ball violation so the play continues and the defense has the option of accepting or declining the 5yd penalty.
Please do not mistake my intent; I'm from San Jose & support all things Northern California.
Can you imagine if Folsom ran that same "false start" offense!?
All of you would be on here crying and yelling "cheaters!"
Unbelievable that something so obvious is denied by some because of extreme bias.
It is a false start. Read the rule book.
Still duckin!!!
Momentum is the excuse for the false start. You have to COME SET prior to snapping the football.
Everyone else is being held to this standard. The defense has to WAIT UNTIL THE BALL IS SNAPPED before they can move. YOUR offensive line is already in motion. Unfair advantage.
But hey, when you pay for high school, I'd expect a different standard for me as well
Another shameless & shameful post by G61, you're a funny guy. You just said that DLS cheats--do you stand by that statement? Oh, and no one talks about Folsom here, except for you really, because no one cares that much. Talk your lumps and walk away, you said Poly would beat DLS, you were wrong, you said that DLS cheats and has an unfair advantage--you're just digging yourself a deeper hole. Learn how to walk away bud.Can you imagine if Folsom ran that same "false start" offense!?

I never said they cheated. I said if WE did the same thing it would be considered cheating.
Am I correct?
