Sacred Heart Prep 76 Carmel 55 Final

Stats - Carmel (329 rushing, 276 passing) and SHP (459 rushing, 147 passing) combined for 1,211 yards of total offense
 
what a joke...SHP only attempted 6 passes too. RBs averaging almost 10 yards a carry for both teams.
 
I think this reflects small schools with limited #'s of high end athletes loading up on the offensive side of the ball and playing the rest of their guys on D. I get the risk in not platooning but Carmel's D line averages about 190lbs and the O Line around 230. Speaking from my experience in watching them, they get outmanned on D while their beat athletes stay fresh on the sidelines. That's great if you can score at will, but yesterday showed that sometimes even that isn't enough.
 
Could it also be both small school teams are worn down from playing a tough non-league? Aptos and SHP have been beaten up in the early season.
