Folsom 52-14

 

[DLS_Pops1]

Folsom 52-14

Highly doubt Folsom gets to 52 points.

 

[MFro5866]

Highly doubt Folsom gets to 52 points.

Considering in the second game of the year, a much less coherent, less efficient, Folsom Offense that committed more fouls and more mistakes easily put up 55, I don’t think 52 is unlikely for the now we’ll oiled machine.

 

[NorCalHSFan]

Folsom 52-14

Folsom very well may win by that score. However, under Blanton, Jesuit is typically a much better team at this point in the season than they are early in the season. Just look at the 2013 season when Folsom beat Jesuit 56-14 in the regular season, but “only” 42-35 in the playoffs...

What you're failing to realize is Jesuit's offense will sustain longer drives which will eat up more of the clock this time around. They will also put up more than 9 points on Friday. I'll be shocked if the team in Red & Blue puts up more than 40 points on Jesuit this time.

What makes you think they will sustain longer drives? Loosing Burke will make it a tougher this time around to sustain drives IMO. They went to the long ball vs. Vaca and got it done... I will be interested to see the what strategy Blanton goes with. If Jesuit can make Folsom earn their scores and not give up quick scores, only then do I see the score being as you predict "junkie". Anything can happen given that it is a rematch in playoff atmosphere.

Good points but I think Blanton will come up with a great game plan to sustain drives. One monkey or in this case player doesn't stop the show.

We shall see Mr. Streak One. Someone is going against the grain.

 

[jimmyzr1]

Jesuit is big, but slow from what I seen when they played Vacaville. I do see them scoring some though, because of their size, ( receivers and rest of team).

 

[Deltadodger]

Jesuit has size but if you spread them out you’ll see their size is a disadvantage at the linebacker spot

Highly doubt Folsom gets to 52 points.

Spot on. 28. Pretty good call Pops.

Folsom is the clear cut favorite to win the SJS D1 Section Championship. As projected per Calpreps:

neutral field
[2017] Folsom (CA) 42, [2017] St. Mary's (Stockton, CA) 26

Once again, I am putting my homer hat on and going with the upset. Yes, as elusive the Folsom QB, Bennett, is, I believe the Rams defense will find a way to pressure him and make the stops when he tries to run. The big challenge for the Rams D will be defending against the Ngata brothers and other quick WR's, especially the deep ball. I know SS, #22 Tre Jenkins, will be ready. For Folsom, the challenge awaits to stop #21 Dusty "Freight Train" Frampton. The Bulldogs must stop him before he gets started. Because once he gets past the line he will be chewing up yards big-time. Like Oak Ridge, last year Folsom had a hard time stopping the Freight Train. Last night, Oak Ridge once again, could not stop him. And if they did, Hunter Low, took advantage of open lanes for big yards. Still, this year, Folsom has the advantage at the line, whereas last year, it was the Rams with this huge advantage. I also believe as athletic the Folsom players are, the Rams track stars in Jamar Marshall and Joseph Fontes are going to be a factor. Marshall was huge with his 99 yard TD kickoff return. Fontes is even faster (fastest 100m in the state for a sophomore last year). Aponte's turf toe should be feeling better with another week to go. Aponte was huge vs Folsom last year. As much as Folsom wants to avenge last year's huge loss vs the Rams, IMHO, it's going to have to wait another year. Picking my Rams with the huge upset OT victory. It' going to be one helluva game, a big shootout. GO SM RAMS!!! Let's do it again!

Pretty good analysis. I think Folsom's LB crew is a bit better than those that took part in last year's game. There's a little more size there and Folsom won't be missing a starter there due to injury. Plus, Folsom should have Lara out there after missing the Jesuit game with a rash. Still, Frampton was ripping off 12 yard carries almost everytime he touched that ball last year. If Folsom's defense cannot stop that, Folsom will likely get beat. Yet, in St. Mary's, you have a defense that allowed Oak Ridge to throw all over them. in forecasting how Folsom might do against St. Mary's pass defense, you'd have to say Folsom has better athletes running routes than did Oak Ridge - but the QB's are totally different. Accuracy, arm strength, execution of the called play versus athleticism, chaos and improvisation. I think the later works fine until you run into a highly athletic secondary and then your point totals start to feel the effects. Might want to stick with solid execution a little more against St. Mary's.

I wouldn't put much stock into Calpreps predictions I'm beating them in the CCS predictions 4-3. At this point without looking at tape or reviewing previous games and match-ups I would say the Rams will be the victor. I'll have my predictions at the end of the week.
