 And Warehouse Tackle. Now let's join the Falcons radio crew live from the stadium for pre-game coverage.

4
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:26,220
 As the good old USA celebrates 250 years as its birthday in 2026, the Florence Falcons are playing game number 250 in school history tonight. And what a night it could be. A historic night possibly for the Falcons. With a win, they could wrap up their first region title since 2014.

5
00:01:26,740 --> 00:01:36,780
 Welcome to Florence Falcons football. Hello everyone. I'm Kevin Johnson, voice of the Florence Falcons. Welcome to the TNT fireworks pre-game show here on your home of Florence Falcons football. 93.9 The Score.

6
00:01:36,780 --> 00:01:51,920
 It is a windy, blustery night. We are outside in the elements. We apologize already for the wind you'll hear through the microphones. But there's no room in the press box for us. So we're on the home side, our visitor side, I should say, where Florence is.

7
00:01:51,920 --> 00:02:00,500
 And it's going to be a very windy night. And the wind already we're seeing playing some factors, even in warm-up a little bit here tonight, as well as the cold front moves through.

8
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:08,500
 Joined now by my good friend and color analyst Mike Albertson. And Mike, a meal at Bob Gibson's and a win by Florence could make for a nice Friday night.

9
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:18,820
 It could be one of the best Friday nights I can remember. You know, look, at this point, we've really taken care of business 7-0, and we could lock up the region right now.

10
00:02:18,920 --> 00:02:25,880
 So it's one of those opportunities that, you know, as we look forward to this evening, we could have a real special Friday night here.

11
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:35,140
 Let's rewind to one year ago. Florence had a chance to win a region title outright and did not happen. Tonight, it's a chance to make sure that doesn't happen again.

12
00:02:35,640 --> 00:02:41,760
 Absolutely. And after the letdown last year, these returning players will show me a lot about who they are and how they approach this game.

13
00:02:41,980 --> 00:02:48,820
 You know, those guys, if they don't have a bad taste in their mouth and don't understand what's at stake, you know, I got nothing for you.

14
00:02:48,900 --> 00:02:54,300
 Coach really has a lot of work ahead, and he's going to show those players and have them ready for tonight.

15
00:02:54,420 --> 00:02:58,060
 I've still got a bad taste in my mouth just as a broadcaster. I'm sure they have to.

16
00:02:58,500 --> 00:03:05,000
 You have to, as a competitor, knowing that situation and knowing that you could have locked it up and you wound up finishing fourth at that point

17
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:11,760
 and getting sent down to Baker, which, you know, with controversy, you know, you really, after a special season like that,

18
00:03:12,100 --> 00:03:18,820
 to be sent off and to miss out on an opportunity to reach a championship is definitely one that you've got to remember as a player.

19
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:24,800
 Kevin Johnson, Mike Albertson here with you at Austin High School in the wind, in the cold front that's moved in.

20
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:32,320
 I'm going to estimate about 58 degrees, but the wind probably gusting up to 25 to 30 miles an hour even at times tonight.

21
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,060
 So we'll bring the broadcast for you.

22
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,960
 We've got everything buckled down and taped down, and I could even have a little rain.

23
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,660
 Hopefully that will stay away, but we're trying to be prepared for that as well.

24
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:46,300
 And looking forward to a great game as both teams are warming up here on the field at this time.

25
00:03:46,340 --> 00:03:51,360
 And, Mike, Austin had a – well, they had our number, let's be honest about it, over the past few years.

26
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,560
 And last week, Austin once again showed this year they can be a dangerous team.

27
00:03:55,660 --> 00:03:59,220
 They scored three touchdowns in the last nine minutes to beat Hartzell.

28
00:03:59,300 --> 00:04:00,640
 They are a dangerous team every year.

29
00:04:00,900 --> 00:04:01,720
 They certainly are.

30
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,020
 They have athletes all over the field.

31
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:04,260
 They're well coached.

32
00:04:04,340 --> 00:04:06,220
 You know, and this year is no different.

33
00:04:06,500 --> 00:04:07,960
 They always have an athletic quarterback.

34
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,040
 They always have a real tough, strong running back.

35
00:04:11,140 --> 00:04:12,860
 And we saw that last year.

36
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,320
 That running back took over a fourth quarter against us.

37
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,640
 But in our last 11 times playing Austin, we've only won twice.

38
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,380
 So 2-9 in that time, that's not a great record, obviously.

39
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:29,660
 But we've broken some records earlier this year, some of those poor streaks that we've had.

40
00:04:30,280 --> 00:04:36,520
 And so this could be one of those nights where we really set the tone for who the Falcons are today.

41
00:04:36,660 --> 00:04:41,240
 Well, let's find out because through seven games, this Falcons team has played lights out.

42
00:04:41,660 --> 00:04:42,860
 They're a hungry team.

43
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,280
 Don't you sense, Mike, when you look at them, there's a hunger there?

44
00:04:46,460 --> 00:04:50,760
 And there's a – I mean, this team just has a different DNA a little bit about them.

45
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,040
 They certainly do.

46
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:57,580
 And, you know, this is a – you know, from top to bottom, the whole program has a different feel to it.

47
00:04:57,660 --> 00:05:03,040
 You know, as things have grown here over the last several years, Coach Morrison has things right where he wants them.

48
00:05:03,100 --> 00:05:05,080
 The depth is as deep as they've been.

49
00:05:05,620 --> 00:05:09,600
 And really and truly, you know, when you're looking at this team,

50
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,720
 they handle their business a lot differently than it has been in years past.

51
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:18,660
 And so they have an opportunity tonight to make this, once again, a real special season

52
00:05:18,660 --> 00:05:20,760
 and continue on that winning path.

53
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:25,460
 On Thursday morning, I got to speak with the head coach of the Florence Falcons, Coach Kenny Marson,

54
00:05:25,580 --> 00:05:29,720
 who spent many years at Decatur High School and knows Austin quite well.

55
00:05:30,060 --> 00:05:31,740
 Here is his thoughts on tonight's game.

56
00:05:33,020 --> 00:05:35,560
 Joined now by head coach Kenny Marson, the Florence Falcons.

57
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:40,960
 And, Coach, here we are getting ready for the next-to-last region game, but it's a big one for the Florence Falcons.

58
00:05:41,380 --> 00:05:42,700
 Huge game, for sure.

59
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,480
 We've got a lot on the line, region championship in our hands.

60
00:05:47,740 --> 00:05:49,860
 You know, it's all in our lap right now.

61
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:51,360
 But that's where you want it to be.

62
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,920
 Your kids have done exactly what you've asked them to do week after week.

63
00:05:54,180 --> 00:05:54,840
 Yeah, absolutely.

64
00:05:55,060 --> 00:05:56,660
 This is where we want to be.

65
00:05:56,740 --> 00:05:58,400
 We don't want somebody to have to do it for us.

66
00:05:59,020 --> 00:06:02,600
 We've got an opportunity to do something we didn't do last year.

67
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:08,180
 We didn't know that the Austin game last year would hold so much weight later in the year.

68
00:06:08,260 --> 00:06:09,840
 It was a week four game.

69
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,500
 And had we won that game, we'd have won a region championship last year.

70
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:15,160
 But we didn't.

71
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,160
 And then we had to have some help, and we got help.

72
00:06:17,860 --> 00:06:21,940
 And then had it back in our hands against Spartan and didn't get it done on the last drive of the game.

73
00:06:22,060 --> 00:06:25,720
 So we've got a lot of redemption time for us.

74
00:06:25,900 --> 00:06:29,360
 Let's talk about tonight's game coming up with Florence at Austin.

75
00:06:29,700 --> 00:06:31,920
 Weather could be a little bit of a factor, wind especially.

76
00:06:32,220 --> 00:06:33,880
 Yeah, it's going to be cool.

77
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,440
 It's finally going to be some football weather.

78
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,000
 Definitely looking at the wind.

79
00:06:38,100 --> 00:06:39,920
 We've already started looking at it all week.

80
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,040
 You know, saw that coming.

81
00:06:42,420 --> 00:06:47,840
 So we wanted to look at how we're going to play the coin toss.

82
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,220
 That will be interesting and how that plays out.

83
00:06:51,580 --> 00:06:55,260
 Coach, before I let you go, just right now, as you look at coming up this opportunity,

84
00:06:55,900 --> 00:06:58,440
 back-to-back years your teams have been in this situation.

85
00:06:58,740 --> 00:07:00,380
 You've got to feel good about where your program is.

86
00:07:00,460 --> 00:07:01,740
 These guys expect to be here.

87
00:07:01,840 --> 00:07:02,860
 Yeah, they do.

88
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:08,480
 And, you know, we know we're hearing a lot of stuff out of Austin over there saying that, you know,

89
00:07:08,500 --> 00:07:09,140
 we're Florence.

90
00:07:09,260 --> 00:07:11,220
 We're going to tap out and just keep hitting them.

91
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:12,740
 They'll quit, that kind of stuff.

92
00:07:12,820 --> 00:07:14,400
 And that's not who this team is.

93
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:15,880
 That's not who this program is now.

94
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:21,520
 They said, you know, there's been some comments made that they're Florence.

95
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:22,460
 We know what they'll do.

96
00:07:22,540 --> 00:07:23,980
 Well, they don't know the real Florence.

97
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:25,400
 And that's what we are right now.

98
00:07:25,460 --> 00:07:27,640
 It's a different time, different day and age.

99
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,680
 And we're ready to get over there and roll.

100
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:31,060
 Let's go have fun.

101
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:31,720
 Let's go.

102
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,540
 Coach Kenny Morrison, the Florence Falcons.

103
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,340
 You're listening to TNT Fireworks Pre-Game Show.

104
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:36,340
 We're back in one minute.

105
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,420

 Welcome back to TNT Fireworks.

120
00:08:46,060 --> 00:08:51,180
 Pre-game show of Florence Falcons football, your official home of Florence Falcons Athletics, 93-9 the score.

121
00:08:51,940 --> 00:08:56,740
 Florence High School Athletics has been on 93-9 the score since 2004.

122
00:08:57,620 --> 00:08:59,140
 And Mike Albertson, I'm Kevin Johnson.

123
00:08:59,220 --> 00:08:59,860
 Glad to be with y'all.

124
00:08:59,980 --> 00:09:08,480
 And Mike, I was going to say, tonight's game 250, broadcasting from A174, but I'll be honest with you, take a little pride in this.

125
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,260
 I've seen 249 of the 250 games.

126
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:12,620
 I've seen almost every game.

127
00:09:12,900 --> 00:09:14,260
 I thought about that this week.

128
00:09:14,260 --> 00:09:16,960
 I thought, that is a lot of Florence High School games I've seen over the years.

129
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:18,220
 It certainly has.

130
00:09:18,380 --> 00:09:22,260
 And we did that trip down memory lane in our little group text.

131
00:09:22,420 --> 00:09:27,600
 I'm near 150 somewhere, but 250, man.

132
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:28,820
 That's a whole heck of a lot.

133
00:09:29,340 --> 00:09:32,380
 You know, I'm almost afraid to ask, what was the one that you missed?

134
00:09:32,500 --> 00:09:35,260
 I can tell you, Vestavia Hills to start the season.

135
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,260
 And Florence won it 13-7.

136
00:09:38,740 --> 00:09:42,840
 But Treva and Matthew were getting married, and I'm the minister, so I had to be at the wedding rehearsal.

137
00:09:43,020 --> 00:09:47,320
 So I did what I was supposed to do first, but that's the only game I've ever missed in Florence history there.

138
00:09:47,380 --> 00:09:51,100
 But this is one I'm looking forward to, and I think all the Falcon fans are as well.

139
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:55,520
 And I know a couple of Falcon fans on their way right now, waiting to get here.

140
00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:02,700
 The athletic director, Coach Meyer Miles, and also the assistant associate athletic director, I should say, Coach Tim Bowens, on their way here.

141
00:10:02,780 --> 00:10:03,700
 They're listening right now.

142
00:10:04,060 --> 00:10:06,960
 Coach Bowens, on behalf of the radio crew, happy birthday, by the way.

143
00:10:07,020 --> 00:10:10,580
 It's a big day for you, so happy birthday, and we won't tell how old you are.

144
00:10:10,660 --> 00:10:12,300
 If you'll be nice to us, we'll be nice to you.

145
00:10:12,560 --> 00:10:13,900
 But one of the good guys right there.

146
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:19,240
 His birthday must always fall on the Alabama-Tennessee weekend, so that has to be pretty special to him, too.

147
00:10:19,500 --> 00:10:21,820
 So best of luck to him tomorrow in that as well.

148
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:23,980
 Mike Albertson, let's talk about this game tonight.

149
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:31,780
 One of the most impressive things of this Florence team is if a player has gone down, it seems like Florence doesn't miss a beat.

150
00:10:31,780 --> 00:10:33,360
 That is not always heard of.

151
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:35,520
 It definitely is, and you know what?

152
00:10:35,580 --> 00:10:40,260
 This is really that Coach Morrison always says, that next man up mentality.

153
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,240
 You can't worry about her boo-hoo when a player goes down.

154
00:10:43,340 --> 00:10:44,900
 Obviously, you don't like that happening.

155
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:52,340
 However, that next player that comes in, having them prepared and ready to go is super important, and those players have shown to do that.

156
00:10:52,420 --> 00:10:55,720
 This is about as deep of our program that I've ever seen.

157
00:10:55,780 --> 00:10:56,780
 I've been around 14 years.

158
00:10:57,100 --> 00:10:59,580
 This is the deepest squad, top to bottom, that I've ever seen.

159
00:10:59,580 --> 00:11:04,960
 We've had plenty of young sophomores and even some freshmen step in at times.

160
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:07,820
 We're just top to bottom.

161
00:11:07,940 --> 00:11:15,400
 Each and every class, from seniors on down, we definitely help out, and they produce for this program.

162
00:11:15,620 --> 00:11:19,260
 And that next man up is the reason why, just being able to work hard and practice.

163
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,220
 When those lights are on and your number is called, you're prepared to go.

164
00:11:23,580 --> 00:11:26,140
 Did I mention the wind gusts are up to about 30 miles an hour?

165
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,680
 Because they are showing that from time to time here, I believe.

166
00:11:29,100 --> 00:11:31,920
 And we're about 50 minutes away from kickoff of this big game.

167
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:33,200
 Wind will play a factor.

168
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:34,420
 We'll talk about it in a few minutes.

169
00:11:34,500 --> 00:11:39,020
 But, Mike, Austin is a team that Florence has played year after year in 7A.

170
00:11:40,020 --> 00:11:42,660
 I mean, Austin is not going to be intimidated by Florence.

171
00:11:42,900 --> 00:11:46,280
 But, likewise, Florence is not going to be intimidated by Austin, either.

172
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:50,800
 When you have a familiar foe like this, this isn't one of those things where you look across the way

173
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,620
 and you're kind of unsure about who you're playing with.

174
00:11:54,660 --> 00:11:55,960
 They know exactly who they're playing.

175
00:11:56,060 --> 00:11:59,220
 Coach Perkins has been around, and Coach Morrison's been around.

176
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:03,620
 You know, the players have played against each other every year since they were in middle school.

177
00:12:03,620 --> 00:12:07,980
 So, this is one of those familiar foe situations where there's no intimidation factor.

178
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:09,060
 Just get out and play ball.

179
00:12:09,560 --> 00:12:11,080
 That is a big part of that as well.

180
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:16,260
 But, you know, let's welcome in, get ready to welcome in our third member of the crew, Jeffrey Jones here.

181
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:17,500
 And Jeffrey's our sideline guy.

182
00:12:17,860 --> 00:12:21,940
 Also, he goes and gets our equipment when we need it, including umbrellas,

183
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,280
 because we're afraid that some rain might be headed this way, a little bit of doing everything.

184
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,860
 Jeffrey, the wind, the weather could be a factor, no doubt.

185
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,040
 It's been a factor already.

186
00:12:31,100 --> 00:12:31,640
 I know that.

187
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:32,800
 It is.

188
00:12:32,900 --> 00:12:37,180
 It's not that cold, but the wind is just coming hard.

189
00:12:37,660 --> 00:12:42,620
 And so, it's definitely watching these teams punt into the wind, they can just forget that.

190
00:12:43,620 --> 00:12:49,040
 They either need to line drive, punt it, or just go for it if it's not too deep in their own territory.

191
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:50,740
 Because this wind is crazy.

192
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:52,980
 Well, let's talk about a couple of things, J.J.

193
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:58,120
 One is, sort of strange to say this, but this is the first true road game since game one.

194
00:12:58,200 --> 00:12:59,260
 It really feels like that, doesn't it?

195
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,400
 Yeah, you mentioned that first game of the year when we were on our way to Pinson.

196
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:07,000
 You said, you know, we're really not going to travel outside of the Shoals area until the Austin game.

197
00:13:07,180 --> 00:13:11,560
 And even then, it's not, you know, I hate coming over to Decatur.

198
00:13:11,900 --> 00:13:14,300
 I just, I don't like, I don't like being over here.

199
00:13:14,340 --> 00:13:15,820
 I don't like Austin, you know, I'll be honest.

200
00:13:16,740 --> 00:13:19,340
 But, I really, it's an easy.

201
00:13:19,460 --> 00:13:20,880
 Just let it out, J.J., we're here for you.

202
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,460
 I've got some frustration all week, pinning up on this one.

203
00:13:23,860 --> 00:13:26,520
 So, you know, it's an easy drive, though, thankfully.

204
00:13:27,420 --> 00:13:29,380
 But, yeah, we haven't played outside the Shoals area.

205
00:13:29,560 --> 00:13:33,580
 There are only two away games that have been Muscle Shoals and Rustable during that stand.

206
00:13:33,580 --> 00:13:39,280
 And, you know, we only have three technical long games this year, long away games.

207
00:13:39,540 --> 00:13:43,700
 And that happens every other year when we're going to have Rustable and Muscle Shoals on the schedule.

208
00:13:44,180 --> 00:13:46,980
 If we travel to both of them, that's a short road trip.

209
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,740
 So, it's been an easy road schedule so far.

210
00:13:49,820 --> 00:13:51,700
 And I'm kind of wondering if that's going to play a factor.

211
00:13:52,300 --> 00:13:59,520
 You know, we haven't had a, as a radio crew, we haven't had an hour-long car ride since game one of the year.

212
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,340
 The weather was a little bit different then.

213
00:14:01,560 --> 00:14:04,400
 But, you know, I think that we kind of know what's at stake.

214
00:14:04,500 --> 00:14:07,720
 We've heard a little bit of the talk from the Austin side this week.

215
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,460
 And, you know, it's going to be one of those things that, you know, we're going to see,

216
00:14:11,580 --> 00:14:14,620
 kind of like Mike Albertson said on the way up here, we're going to see how manly we are

217
00:14:14,620 --> 00:14:17,080
 and how good our memory is from last year.

218
00:14:17,340 --> 00:14:21,580
 Yeah, nine weeks ago at Benson Valley, it's about a 55-degree difference, that's for sure.

219
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,100
 As we're talking with Jeffrey Jones, our sideline reporter.

220
00:14:24,100 --> 00:14:30,340
 And J.J. Florence hasn't faced much adversity on the scoreboard either other than the Muscle Shoals game.

221
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,280
 And that's something that maybe we could see tonight.

222
00:14:33,580 --> 00:14:35,680
 Well, it's not to say that we haven't had stress every week.

223
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:37,220
 We've stressed every week about Russell.

224
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,180
 We've stressed about, you know, a little bit about Decatur.

225
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:41,640
 We didn't stress so much about East Limestone.

226
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,440
 Athens gave us a little bit of trouble early.

227
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:51,780
 But for the most part, we have not been trailing in the second half.

228
00:14:51,780 --> 00:14:56,040
 And we haven't really been trailing after the first quarter much, if at all.

229
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:57,140
 I don't remember the time we were.

230
00:14:57,300 --> 00:14:58,640
 But we have been scored on first.

231
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,200
 But other than that, you know, it's been pretty smooth sailing, knock on wood.

232
00:15:03,220 --> 00:15:10,960
 I anticipate if we have our ducks in a row this week, you know, with it being an off week, the schedule and the timing and everything is a little bit off.

233
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:12,200
 And that always scares me.

234
00:15:12,260 --> 00:15:13,200
 And I know it scares you all.

235
00:15:13,780 --> 00:15:17,100
 We're probably four of the more routine-oriented people in the world.

236
00:15:17,860 --> 00:15:19,840
 And these kids don't realize it.

237
00:15:20,260 --> 00:15:22,720
 But living with an administrator, I hear it all the time.

238
00:15:23,300 --> 00:15:24,600
 Routine, routine, routine.

239
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,580
 Get them off their routine and you could have problems.

240
00:15:27,780 --> 00:15:29,560
 So they've been out of school all week.

241
00:15:29,660 --> 00:15:35,780
 They've been practicing at odd times in the mornings and whatnot, which is, you know, it's just one of those things.

242
00:15:36,100 --> 00:15:38,260
 We're going to see how well we adapt and adjust tonight.

243
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:40,680
 J.J. Florence has been playing with confidence.

244
00:15:41,180 --> 00:15:42,760
 They can't become overconfident, though, can they?

245
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,880
 Well, and that's a problem that, you know, this is the best season we've ever had.

246
00:15:47,140 --> 00:15:48,540
 And we're not used to this.

247
00:15:48,700 --> 00:15:49,700
 We haven't been in this position.

248
00:15:49,860 --> 00:15:54,020
 I don't remember if we've ever been in a position or any team from Florence has ever been in this position.

249
00:15:54,020 --> 00:15:58,220
 So, you know, Coffey, Bradshaw, and the like, you know.

250
00:15:58,340 --> 00:16:00,220
 So we'll see how we handle it.

251
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:08,280
 You know, the worst thing a 16-, 17-, 18-year-old kid can do is listen to the hype that we sometimes spill on the radio

252
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,700
 and sometimes the newspaper puts out there as well.

253
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:12,980
 And mainly social media.

254
00:16:13,140 --> 00:16:13,820
 That's the big thing.

255
00:16:13,900 --> 00:16:14,460
 They watch that.

256
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:15,440
 Players of the week.

257
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:20,880
 We've had multiple players of the week, which, you know, congratulations to the guys for being players of the week.

258
00:16:21,020 --> 00:16:24,940
 But, you know, they need to make sure that, hey, next week you start a clean slate.

259
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,360
 You are not the player of the next game, player of the week next game.

260
00:16:27,380 --> 00:16:27,920
 You've got to earn it.

261
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:32,800
 I think we started off with 93.9 The Score has been the official voice of the Falcons.

262
00:16:32,860 --> 00:16:37,860
 And now I think we've got about 70,000 trying to join in because everybody wants to jump in on this 7-0 start.

263
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:38,160
 Yeah.

264
00:16:38,260 --> 00:16:41,280
 But that's a good thing that the Falcons have done and they've handled it well so far.

265
00:16:41,540 --> 00:16:44,520
 I'll tell you someone else who handles it well every Friday night is James Moody.

266
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:50,500
 He is in the 93.9 The Score studios giving you updates on all the games from around the state and around the shows area.

267
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:55,380
 And let's send it to him in the nice, comfortable, unwendy studios of 93.9 The Score.

268
00:16:55,500 --> 00:16:56,160
 James, take it away.

269
00:16:56,420 --> 00:16:57,100
 Thank you, Kevin.

270
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,240
 Yes, it is quite comfortable in here.

271
00:17:00,500 --> 00:17:02,460
 We're going to be keeping up with all the action tonight.

272
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:04,820
 And we had some pretty good action last night.

273
00:17:04,980 --> 00:17:06,720
 Huntsville beat Bob Jones 28-17.

274
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,920
 Deschler beat Brooks 44-7 in a statewide televised game.

275
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:12,420
 Fairview beat Crossville 41-6.

276
00:17:13,220 --> 00:17:15,260
 Huntsville falls to Hoax Bluff 49-8.

277
00:17:15,900 --> 00:17:17,440
 Mae Jemison over Lee 32-6.

278
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,160
 And Meek defeated Phillips 54-6.

279
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:24,740
 Tonight we'll be keeping up with all the action, including but not limited to West Limestone and Central.

280
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:41,680
 We got Whitesburg Christian, Decatur Heritage, Russellville, Decatur, Calvert Heights, Elkmont, Calvert County, Falkville, Tanner, Lexington, Hazel Green, James Clemens, Spartman, Grissom, Cherokee, Hackleburg, Sheffield, Phil Campbell, Belgring, Waterloo, Rogers, Wilson, also Tennessee, and Mississippi action.

281
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,360
 Going to keep up with the ALCS game four.

282
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,100
 Cleveland leading that one two to one.

283
00:17:46,660 --> 00:17:50,380
 Got a college slate, Memphis, Tulane, Appalachian State, Coastal Carolina, Washington, Purdue.

284
00:17:50,500 --> 00:17:51,740
 We'll be keeping up with all those.

285
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:57,660
 And you can join myself and Blair Krieger from 10 to midnight tonight during the AHSAA statewide scoreboard show.

286
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:02,220
 We'll be giving you all the finals from the local games and from everything else.

287
00:18:02,420 --> 00:18:04,520
 So join us for that.

288
00:18:04,620 --> 00:18:08,180
 And now we rejoin the crew for more of the pregame show.

289
00:18:08,540 --> 00:18:09,720
 Thank you, James Smitty.

290
00:18:09,860 --> 00:18:11,160
 We're here at Austin High School.

291
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,520
 Kevin Johnson and the crew, as he says, with you here on 93.9 The Score.

292
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,680
 Big thank you to Garner Pierce Auto for our courtesy vehicles this season.

293
00:18:18,100 --> 00:18:19,480
 They're great folks, great deals.

294
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,240
 They took care of us tonight, a nice vehicle.

295
00:18:21,620 --> 00:18:24,680
 They'll take care of you as well as you go throughout the season.

296
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,700
 So that's Garner Pierce Autos here in Florence.

297
00:18:27,820 --> 00:18:30,920
 And a shout out to our good friends at Lost Pizza as well.

298
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:36,680
 And Florence tonight, listening to our broadcast, Lost Pizza will satisfy you and your family with great food

299
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,740
 and a great time and a great atmosphere in historic downtown Florence.

300
00:18:40,940 --> 00:18:43,360
 Countdown to kickoff of Florence Falcons football continues.

301
00:18:43,740 --> 00:18:46,860
 You're listening to the TNT Fireworks pregame show on 93.9 The Score.

302
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:48,060
 We're back in one minute.

303
00:18:49,060 --> 00:18:55,560
 Hello, my name is Debra Bell Passuer and I'm an attorney with the law firm of Johnson, Passuer, Medley, and Burchill.

304
00:18:55,680 --> 00:19:03,900
 Please don't call an out-of-town lawyer when you can call our law firm, which has over 100 years of combined experience in all areas of the law.

305
00:19:04,020 --> 00:19:05,160
 Check us out first.

309

 Hey, Falcon fans, this is Keith at Cypress Creek Indoor Range.

310
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:30,680
 We know great defense starts up front and the Falcons start with Jaden White, your defensive tackle.

311
00:19:31,340 --> 00:19:39,120
 Whether it's stopping the run or disrupting that quarterback, Jaden has the right tools, puts in the hard work, and has the right training to stop the offensive threat of opposing teams.

312
00:19:39,620 --> 00:19:43,800
 Let Cypress Creek Indoor Range provide you with the tools, training, and resources to defend your family.

 We're the biggest gun store in the Shoals and the only indoor shooting range and training center to provide everything you need to have the best defense for your family.

314
00:19:51,620 --> 00:19:55,760
 Cypress Creek Indoor Range is located at 5060, Highway 157, and Underwood, Petersville.

315
00:19:56,220 --> 00:19:59,340
 On the web, cypresscreekrange.com, and on social media.

316
00:19:59,820 --> 00:20:00,340
 Go Falcons!

317
00:20:08,340 --> 00:20:12,480
 TNT fireworks pregame show, Florence Falcons football, Kevin Johnson and the crew.

318
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:21,340
 We're glad to be with you tonight on the road at Austin High School, trying to go 8-0 are the Falcons on the season and trying to wrap up their first region championship in 12 years.

319
00:20:21,460 --> 00:20:26,540
 But an angry group of black bears standing in their way and a tough opponent each and every season.

320
00:20:26,940 --> 00:20:29,420
 We know that each and every time these two teams tangle.

321
00:20:29,700 --> 00:20:36,340
 Mike Albertson and Florence did not, they did lock up a playoff berth, which is always good.

322
00:20:36,420 --> 00:20:37,540
 Glad they got that done.

323
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:41,580
 More is at stake, but they do have that in their back pocket already there in postseason play.

324
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:48,480
 Yeah, I mean, look, any time that you can make the playoffs and give yourself a shot at the map, it's really a good thing.

325
00:20:48,780 --> 00:20:51,280
 You know, this is the sixth straight year that that's happened.

326
00:20:51,380 --> 00:20:53,480
 It's the earliest clinch that I can remember in years.

327
00:20:54,140 --> 00:20:58,680
 And, you know, our region winds up matching up against region six.

328
00:20:59,060 --> 00:21:01,940
 However, really, the prize is the region championship.

329
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:03,600
 We missed out on it last year.

330
00:21:03,980 --> 00:21:07,940
 It was unfortunate, controversy, tiebreaker stuff, all the things.

331
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:12,300
 Let's just take all the controversy out of it and just win it on the field tonight, get it over with.

332
00:21:12,300 --> 00:21:13,540
 And, Mike, one more thing for us.

333
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,020
 I'll bring in John here in a second.

334
00:21:15,140 --> 00:21:19,320
 And that is, tonight is the Falcons are warming up in their white jerseys, white pants, blue helmets.

335
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,460
 There's two number tens out on the field warming up tonight.

336
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:27,720
 Jaden Ward on defense and Kayon Williams back, ready to play tonight on offense.

337
00:21:28,100 --> 00:21:31,520
 It's good to have the sophomore running back who was electric in the first three games.

338
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:36,120
 It definitely is, you know, just having a weapon like that is obviously important.

339
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,960
 But also, you know, and most importantly, the fact that he's healthy enough to be back.

340
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,420
 You know, you don't want to ever see a kid sideline because of an injury or anything like that.

341
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,600
 It happens because football is kind of a brutal sport.

342
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:51,100
 However, you know, just having him back after injuries, it's just good to see him.

343
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,180
 And there is an extra hop in his step.

344
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:54,820
 You've seen him warm up and everything.

345
00:21:55,060 --> 00:21:56,180
 And he's ready to go.

346
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:58,240
 Let's go to our statistician.

347
00:21:58,240 --> 00:21:59,940
 Our good friend John McDaniel is with us.

348
00:22:00,220 --> 00:22:02,620
 John, you doing all right tonight and friend on this cold, blustery night?

349
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:03,600
 Yeah, we're doing great.

350
00:22:03,780 --> 00:22:08,380
 I'm glad that you reminded all of us earlier in this week that we needed to bring some warm layers.

351
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,540
 Appreciate Jeffrey for loaning me his heated jacket.

352
00:22:12,780 --> 00:22:14,820
 At least maybe keeping mine working.

353
00:22:14,900 --> 00:22:15,320
 I don't know.

354
00:22:15,580 --> 00:22:17,340
 I'm just glad he plugged it back up for you.

355
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:18,360
 That's kind of where I'm going.

356
00:22:18,820 --> 00:22:20,200
 That's pretty nice of it as well.

357
00:22:20,340 --> 00:22:20,840
 Yeah, appreciate it.

358
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,880
 Let's talk about, John, this Falcons team.

359
00:22:24,020 --> 00:22:26,440
 They're highly touted, especially on defense.

360
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,260
 About to face, though, a different type of test tonight.

361
00:22:30,100 --> 00:22:33,120
 This is going to be, of course, we're going to mention it all pregame.

362
00:22:33,220 --> 00:22:39,460
 This is the best test for the Falcons team, especially the defense they've played all season.

363
00:22:40,780 --> 00:22:48,220
 Last year, essentially, a lot of the same players, 257 yards rushing in the game, almost 400 yards of offense.

364
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:54,040
 And Mr. Aiden Davis, the starting tailback, ran wild last year.

365
00:22:54,160 --> 00:23:01,140
 And I would assume most of the guys remember it and are looking forward to exacting a little revenge.

366
00:23:01,220 --> 00:23:06,200
 It may not be the same season, but if I was a player, I would not have forgot something like that.

367
00:23:06,580 --> 00:23:08,340
 And it's going to be tough.

368
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,200
 They've got some extremely large linemen.

369
00:23:10,300 --> 00:23:13,620
 They have one lineman, Kevin, listed at 400 pounds.

370
00:23:14,820 --> 00:23:20,620
 His lightest listing is 350, so not really on a diet if you're at 350, are you?

371
00:23:20,620 --> 00:23:21,640
 I'll just say this.

372
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,440
 They had his picture up at Big Bob Gibson's.

373
00:23:23,500 --> 00:23:24,160
 That's all I'm going to say.

374
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:25,740
 He is known there quite well.

375
00:23:26,100 --> 00:23:28,100
 He is a big boy at an offensive tackle.

376
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,220
 And there's another one that's pretty big as well.

377
00:23:30,540 --> 00:23:32,900
 And they will run behind that size and that weight.

378
00:23:32,980 --> 00:23:39,640
 And that brings me to my next question is, how do you fight off those guys that are that big as a defender?

379
00:23:39,980 --> 00:23:42,220
 You played linebacker, and you've had to go against bigger opponents.

380
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:43,560
 How do you fight off the blocks?

381
00:23:44,300 --> 00:23:47,700
 My very first thought when I read the question, Kevin, was you don't.

382
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:47,940
 Yeah.

383
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:49,480
 You run.

384
00:23:49,620 --> 00:23:53,240
 First off, you don't technically run in front of them, but you try to use your technique.

385
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:54,880
 You try to beat them.

386
00:23:55,380 --> 00:23:58,640
 If they're big and strong, you've got to be quick and fast.

387
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:03,620
 And so you want to make sure that you get them moving or you beat them to the spot.

388
00:24:03,700 --> 00:24:07,480
 But if you have to take them on, you want to initiate the contact.

389
00:24:08,020 --> 00:24:12,280
 In this case, as a linebacker or defender, you want to make the pot.

390
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:13,760
 You want to initiate with them.

391
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:21,480
 You want to separate with your arms and use their body and that large mass to use them to fill the hole.

392
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:27,660
 You've got to know your assignments, but make sure you're working hard and you're really following your keys.

393
00:24:27,780 --> 00:24:30,940
 But you take the fight to them is always the best way to go.

394
00:24:30,940 --> 00:24:31,380
 All right.

395
00:24:31,460 --> 00:24:39,220
 One of the things I love about this Florence team, and maybe it's just in my DNA of myself, is they have blocked a few punts this year, block kicks, harassed punters.

396
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:43,020
 It seems like special teams Florence has won that every game and has paid off.

397
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:48,620
 But knowing how to block a kick, you and I both know, it's more than just running back there and blocking.

398
00:24:48,740 --> 00:24:49,500
 It takes an art.

399
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:56,320
 Last night, as a matter of fact, in a college game, UEB had a chance to block a punt and was there, but he missed the ball and he hit the punter.

400
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,300
 Remember, there's an art to blocking kicks, isn't it?

401
00:24:58,340 --> 00:24:59,240
 Yeah, there's seven.

402
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:03,680
 It is 100% a skill and not just luck.

403
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:05,080
 Starts with timing.

404
00:25:05,820 --> 00:25:07,320
 When are you getting off the ball?

405
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:12,680
 Watching the snapper to see, can you get any tells about when the snap is going to go?

406
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:13,880
 That's where you start with.

407
00:25:14,180 --> 00:25:15,240
 You want to be there quick.

408
00:25:15,740 --> 00:25:19,760
 Second is not, of course, everybody thinks you want to go to the punter.

409
00:25:20,020 --> 00:25:23,580
 You want to go where the punter's foot or toe is going to be.

410
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,480
 And actually, I've always just ahead of him.

411
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:27,720
 You don't want to go to his toe.

412
00:25:27,780 --> 00:25:28,980
 You want to be just ahead of him.

413
00:25:29,340 --> 00:25:32,520
 And so you're gauging that angle of where you're going to be.

414
00:25:32,580 --> 00:25:42,100
 And lastly, it's when you dive to maximize your surface area, simply, you don't want to dive flat, perpendicular, or parallel to the ground.

415
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:50,240
 You want to angle just maybe 10, 15 degrees so that all of your body is exposed and the best chance you get to block the ball.

416
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:56,060
 So all three of those are elements to getting to it, but when you do it, it can turn the game.

417
00:25:56,260 --> 00:25:56,700
 Yeah, absolutely.

418
00:25:56,820 --> 00:25:57,800
 Block kids can turn the game.

419
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:03,160
 They've had trouble, Austin has, with the bad snaps on punts over the heads longer, but they've gotten rid of their punts.

420
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,780
 But London Petty Poole for Florence has been pretty good.

421
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:07,020
 He does something a little different.

422
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,440
 He goes to the side and just reaches out a hand and tries to catch it.

423
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:14,140
 He did block one like that this year and almost blocked the second one as well.

424
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,960
 And the teams are both warming up still here.

425
00:26:17,380 --> 00:26:18,820
 Jeffrey Jones on the sideline.

426
00:26:18,820 --> 00:26:24,280
 And can you give us just an update a little bit about the weather on the sideline and the wind, how it is down there on the surface?

427
00:26:24,460 --> 00:26:25,780
 I thought we covered this already.

428
00:26:25,900 --> 00:26:27,580
 It's windy no matter where you stand.

429
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,100
 Actually, it's not so bad as bad down here.

430
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:34,760
 I was talking to Lauren Costin-Mahen just a minute ago, and they were freezing.

431
00:26:34,860 --> 00:26:37,440
 They sent it to Clare to get some blankets at the store.

432
00:26:37,740 --> 00:26:42,100
 So a couple of store runs are going to be made today for those that aren't prepared.

433
00:26:42,300 --> 00:26:43,800
 But, you know, the wind is blowing.

434
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,640
 It's not blowing like it is up there, I'll be honest.

435
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,000
 It's a little bit – it doesn't feel as bad.

436
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:54,980
 But, you know, you look at that flag over there by the Austin locker room, and it is definitely swirling.

437
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:59,020
 So, you know, I think that it's going to maintain the whole game.

438
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:04,280
 It's going to definitely play a role in decision-making for these coaches going north to south.

439
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,060
 The wind seems to be coming out of the north to the south.

440
00:27:08,380 --> 00:27:16,820
 So, you know, at this point on the coin toss, if we win it, I might make my decision based on the wind more than if we're going to defer or get the ball.

441
00:27:17,340 --> 00:27:23,540
 That's going to be an interesting thing that coaches will have to decide about what they will do if they win the toss, that type of thing.

442
00:27:23,820 --> 00:27:27,400
 Austin to our right, wearing all black, orange letters, black helmets.

443
00:27:27,900 --> 00:27:29,840
 They are to the Austin locker room to our right.

444
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:34,680
 Florence to our left, to the scoreboard side, if you're familiar with Austin High School.

445
00:27:34,780 --> 00:27:37,700
 We're on the visitor's side getting ready for tonight's game.

446
00:27:37,820 --> 00:27:40,480
 Austin Black Bears are coached by Jeremy Perkins.

447
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:48,960
 He is the veteran coach of this region, 17 seasons at Austin High School with a record of 117 and 70 overall.

448
00:27:49,360 --> 00:27:53,700
 His teams have been in the playoffs 12 of 16 years.

449
00:27:53,780 --> 00:27:57,500
 So he's done a great job of getting teams in the playoffs each of those seasons.

450
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,360
 Kenny Marson, much the same when he's had the opportunity.

451
00:28:00,360 --> 00:28:06,620
 He has put his teams in the playoffs each season for Florence High School in his fifth year here at Florence High School.

452
00:28:06,700 --> 00:28:10,960
 So he'll be five for five on that, 63 and 23 on his career.

453
00:28:11,420 --> 00:28:14,840
 He did win a state title at Fayetteville High School in Tennessee.

454
00:28:15,460 --> 00:28:19,100
 And they won it in 2020 right before COVID.

455
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,840
 And one of the great things about that team is they did a good job of everything.

456
00:28:22,940 --> 00:28:26,320
 Let's go down to Jeffrey Jones, who has to head coach Kenny Marson with him.

457
00:28:26,580 --> 00:28:44,980
 Coach, tell me about your week of practice so far.

458
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:46,720
 Guys handle it pretty well.

459
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:52,780
 I mean, we went to 8 to 11 every morning just trying to give the guys a break and give our coaches a break in the afternoon.

460
00:28:53,220 --> 00:28:57,580
 It's definitely out of the routine, but, you know, we had homecoming week was out of our routine.

461
00:28:58,340 --> 00:29:00,540
 We've had a bunch of routine changes throughout.

462
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,180
 So I hope our guys handle it well like they did before.

463
00:29:03,540 --> 00:29:07,880
 We preach about routines in our household with these kids, you know, how important it is to stay on that routine.

464
00:29:08,420 --> 00:29:11,100
 One thing that's not kind of been routine this year is us traveling.

465
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:15,060
 This is the longest game we've taken in the last five weeks down to Birmingham.

466
00:29:15,580 --> 00:29:16,380
 Would that affect anything?

467
00:29:16,980 --> 00:29:17,520
 No, no.

468
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,080
 It's just another road game.

469
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:20,420
 We're used to coming over here to Austin.

470
00:29:20,540 --> 00:29:22,060
 It's not a far trip for us.

471
00:29:22,060 --> 00:29:25,060
 But our guys have done this many times, so we should be good.

472
00:29:25,260 --> 00:29:26,640
 You and I have discussed this before.

473
00:29:26,860 --> 00:29:30,180
 I don't like Austin, I'll be honest, and I'm not sure you really like him that much either.

474
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:36,120
 So how good would it feel to come in here and stomp these guys and go home to the region champs?

475
00:29:36,540 --> 00:29:38,560
 Well, for our kids, for sure.

476
00:29:38,780 --> 00:29:40,700
 You know, I want it for our community as well.

477
00:29:41,180 --> 00:29:43,100
 It's not about me and not about Austin.

478
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:48,360
 It's about these young men that work extremely hard to get where they are right now, and they deserve some payoff tonight.

479
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:49,140
 Thanks, Coach.

480
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:49,520
 Good luck.

481
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,480
 Great answer there from Kenny Marson, the head coach of the Florida Stocks.

482
00:29:53,500 --> 00:29:55,140
 I hate those politically correct answers.

483
00:29:55,460 --> 00:29:56,060
 You know what I mean?

484
00:29:56,460 --> 00:29:58,420
 I want to say, hey, thanks for Godfinding me, Coach.

485
00:29:58,660 --> 00:30:02,800
 Hey, that's one of those where you were doing the trap question for me a little bit there.

486
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:03,660
 He said, I'm not falling.

487
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:04,600
 Let's be honest.

488
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:19,400
 This is a victory going home against the Black Bears.

489
00:30:19,580 --> 00:30:19,680
 That's right.

490
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:20,020
 That's going to be great.

491
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,920
 Florence and Austin meet for the 21st time tonight.

492
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:24,880
 Austin leads that series 11-9.

493
00:30:25,220 --> 00:30:29,680
 They blew out Florence last year 34-6, and they have lead the series, I said, 11-9,

494
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,740
 and many of those have come in the past few years.

495
00:30:32,740 --> 00:30:34,800
 They actually have won nine of the last 11.

496
00:30:35,140 --> 00:30:41,940
 When we come back, we'll continue our way to kickoff as we count down here on the TNT Fireworks pregame show.

497
00:30:42,260 --> 00:30:43,840
 You'll be back here in two minutes.

498
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,000
 It's football time in Alabama.

499
00:30:48,420 --> 00:30:50,660
 Our students are learning big American lessons.

500
00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:55,720
 You can start with your God-given talents, and through practice, hard work, and sacrifice,

501
00:30:56,100 --> 00:30:58,060
 you have the ability to become champions.

502
00:30:58,860 --> 00:31:00,420
 This is Congressman Robert Adderhall.

503
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:04,720
 May God bless all of our students representing our high schools during this season,

504
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,380
 and may God bless the United States of America.

505
00:31:08,020 --> 00:31:10,300
 I'm Robert Adderhall, and I approve this message.

506
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,080
 Paid for by Adderhall for Congress.

507
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:19,240
 At North Alabama Bone and Joint Clinic, our show's roots run deep.

 Getting the kids to practice on time.

514
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:49,600
 Remembering if it's your day to bring snacks.

515
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:51,860
 Making it to the game with a clean jersey.

516
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:54,720
 Why are simple things sometimes so complicated?

517
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,980
 Thankfully, with auto owners, insurance doesn't have to be one of them.

518
00:31:58,340 --> 00:32:01,280
 Auto owners works with independent agents who answer when you call,

519
00:32:01,540 --> 00:32:06,480
 so you can worry about more important things, like whether your kid is going to run toward first or third base.

520
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:08,340
 That's simple human sense.

521
00:32:08,340 --> 00:32:13,220
 In Florence, call Tyson Johnson, Luke Brown, Kirby Allen, Victoria Devaney, Brant Bishop, or Daniel Box

522
00:32:13,220 --> 00:32:15,240
 with Henniger Johnson and Layton Insurance Agency.

524
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,200
 Game day's coming, and your tailgate crew is counting on you.

525
00:32:22,340 --> 00:32:25,780
 That's why Lost Pizza Company Shoals put together the tailgate playbook,

526
00:32:25,900 --> 00:32:30,080
 specialty pizzas, wing trays, and subplatters, all built to feed a crowd.

527
00:32:30,300 --> 00:32:33,560
 It's why we're the go-to pizza place in Florence, Alabama,

528
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,320

531
00:32:45,700 --> 00:32:47,340
 From our playbook to your plate.

532
00:32:47,700 --> 00:32:53,760
 It was just 19 years ago on October 26th before a huge crowd at Brawley Stadium

533
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:58,100
 when the Florence Falcons took on the Huntsville Panthers for the region championship.

534
00:32:59,300 --> 00:33:03,980
 An incredible game found the Falcons holding on to a 27-21 lead late,

535
00:33:03,980 --> 00:33:09,060
 but the Panthers were driving to the Falcons' 35-yard line with less than a minute to go.

536
00:33:09,580 --> 00:33:15,060
 But it was then that Florence's DJ Bonton picked off a Huntsville pass and raced 70 yards

537
00:33:15,060 --> 00:33:19,540
 to seal the Falcons' first-ever region championship in 2007.

538
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:24,560
 Still to this day, I could tell you almost every play of that night.

539
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:30,960
 19 years later, the 2026 Florence Falcons have a chance to write their own story

540
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,900
 and bring home their third region title in school history.

541
00:33:34,620 --> 00:33:38,260
 This Falcons team showed us early on in the wins over Pinson Valley and Jasper

542
00:33:38,260 --> 00:33:40,360
 that the offense could be explosive.

543
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,200
 But then in a 7-0 win over Muscle Shoes,

544
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:46,960
 we realized this Falcons defense was really, really special.

545
00:33:47,460 --> 00:33:51,940
 In 7 wins, this Falcons team has yet to trail in the second half of a game.

546
00:33:52,740 --> 00:33:56,460
 And they have scored 34 points in 6 of their 7 victories.

547
00:33:57,140 --> 00:34:01,060
 Head coach Kenny Morrison has been upfront and transparent with his team all season.

548
00:34:01,500 --> 00:34:03,720
 But this week, more than ever before,

549
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,300
 his message to his team all week long was very simple.

550
00:34:07,940 --> 00:34:09,380
 Pressure is a privilege.

551
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,960
 Instead of avoiding the elephant in the room,

552
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,060
 Coach Morrison has embraced it, and so has his team.

553
00:34:15,660 --> 00:34:17,920
 With winning comes the pressure of the next opponent.

554
00:34:18,060 --> 00:34:20,280
 You are no longer the hunter, but the hunted.

555
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:24,380
 The pressure isn't something to be avoided, but something to embrace.

556
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:29,120
 A chance, an opportunity, even a legacy is at stake.

557
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,920
 Tonight, the boys representing the city of Florence

558
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:36,540
 look to bring home its first region title in 12 years.

559
00:34:37,740 --> 00:34:38,900
 How will this game end up?

560
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:40,540
 We're about to find out.

561
00:34:40,940 --> 00:34:46,080
 But I know one thing for sure about this 2026 edition of the Florence Falcons,

562
00:34:46,500 --> 00:34:47,160
 and it's this.

563
00:34:47,700 --> 00:34:51,980
 They love the Friday night lights, and they will embrace the moment.

564
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:53,260
 Let's go, boys.

565
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,480
 It's time to go win a region championship.

566
00:34:56,300 --> 00:34:59,120
 Florence Falcons football, it starts right now.

567
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:07,280
 We're about 26 minutes away from kickoff of Florence and Austin here

568
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:08,160
 at Austin High School.

569
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,300
 Kevin Johnson, Mike Albertson, Jeffrey Jones, and John McDaniel.

570
00:35:11,420 --> 00:35:12,620
 Glad to be with you tonight.

571
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,900
 Falcon crowd really starting to fall in here across the way.

572
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:16,620
 The Austin crowd.

573
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:19,560
 It's homecoming for the Black Bears, I understand.

574
00:35:20,140 --> 00:35:22,880
 So they've chose a windy night on homecoming,

575
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:24,780
 and they chose the Falcons for homecoming.

576
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,000
 So that plays in our favor a little bit as well.

577
00:35:27,300 --> 00:35:29,640
 Anytime it seems like teams have chosen us for homecoming,

578
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:31,760
 it's not paid off well for the team that did.

579
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:33,440
 So we'll see if that plays off for the Falcons.

580
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:37,020
 Mike Albertson, the Florence Falcons could return a few players tonight,

581
00:35:37,060 --> 00:35:38,660
 as we said, including Kayon Williams.

582
00:35:39,300 --> 00:35:41,440
 Elijah Hines not back in the lineup tonight.

583
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,240
 But, you know, sometimes it takes time to ease back in.

584
00:35:44,620 --> 00:35:45,120
 We'll see.

585
00:35:45,220 --> 00:35:46,560
 Every player's different, though, right?

586
00:35:46,780 --> 00:35:47,340
 No, absolutely.

587
00:35:47,580 --> 00:35:50,160
 You know, every player, every personality, you know,

588
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,140
 there are some guys that need to touch the ball all the time.

589
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:54,340
 Other guys that touch the ball a couple times

590
00:35:54,340 --> 00:35:56,100
 that can make a direct impact on the game.

591
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,380
 You know, but having Williams back, obviously,

592
00:35:58,500 --> 00:36:00,020
 is a great weapon here for the Falcons.

593
00:36:00,460 --> 00:36:04,540
 But, you know, even we had our bye week a couple weeks ago,

594
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:07,760
 plus last week we rested a couple guys a good bit,

595
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,240
 didn't get near the snaps that they're used to getting,

596
00:36:10,380 --> 00:36:12,920
 just kept them kind of in game shape a little bit.

597
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,540
 But, you know, anytime these new guys are coming back,

598
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,500
 it takes a minute to just get back in the flow

599
00:36:18,500 --> 00:36:19,340
 and the speed of the game.

600
00:36:20,240 --> 00:36:21,540
 Jeffrey Jones on the sideline.

601
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,200
 I was laughing a minute just looking at Jeffrey

602
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:24,660
 because he is always sharp looking.

603
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,060
 But this is one of those nights, if you're a fan here,

604
00:36:27,140 --> 00:36:28,180
 you are not looking sharp.

605
00:36:28,260 --> 00:36:30,820
 You're just trying to stay warm, trying to stay dry.

606
00:36:31,340 --> 00:36:32,800
 But there's still a lot of blue out here,

607
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:34,480
 so it's good to see that right now

608
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:36,600
 as the Falcons are getting into the locker room

609
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,040
 and the Black Bears as well.

610
00:36:38,220 --> 00:36:40,140
 And, John, we talked about a couple of things.

611
00:36:40,140 --> 00:36:43,520
 One of them is possessions tonight could be limited, possibly,

612
00:36:43,860 --> 00:36:45,840
 especially when you talk about a team like Austin

613
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:47,120
 that likes to run the ball a lot.

614
00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:52,860
 Yeah, certainly this environment, the conditions,

615
00:36:53,060 --> 00:36:55,400
 the wind that's blowing so strong,

616
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:57,680
 that's just playing into their favor, no doubt.

617
00:36:57,820 --> 00:36:59,100
 They're a power run team.

618
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:01,300
 They've got a couple of heavy running backs

619
00:37:01,300 --> 00:37:04,020
 that they just started the game last week

620
00:37:04,020 --> 00:37:07,700
 with about six different just take the quarterback out,

621
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:09,640
 wildcat, right downhill.

622
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:12,380
 Even, like, eight or nine guys on the line of scrimmage.

623
00:37:12,460 --> 00:37:13,480
 There was, like, one wide receiver,

624
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:14,800
 and the rest were on the line of scrimmage.

625
00:37:14,900 --> 00:37:15,360
 So, let's go.

626
00:37:15,500 --> 00:37:16,120
 A hundred percent.

627
00:37:16,260 --> 00:37:18,500
 Two tight ends, two running backs in front,

628
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:20,260
 two lead blockers.

629
00:37:20,260 --> 00:37:21,180
 That's eight running backs.

630
00:37:21,540 --> 00:37:23,820
 And they just ran power just down the field.

631
00:37:24,540 --> 00:37:26,980
 And then, of course, they've got Aiden Davis,

632
00:37:27,100 --> 00:37:29,540
 who comes in who's the traditional running back.

633
00:37:29,900 --> 00:37:34,220
 But he's a 210, 15-pound kind of battering ram.

634
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:37,360
 And so, they do a great job holding on to the ball,

635
00:37:37,540 --> 00:37:38,740
 maximizing their possessions.

636
00:37:38,860 --> 00:37:40,260
 And when you run the ball all game,

637
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:42,960
 you keep your defense off the field.

638
00:37:43,260 --> 00:37:45,760
 As you said, you reduce the number of possessions.

639
00:37:46,420 --> 00:37:48,480
 And the Falcons are going to have to hold on to the ball.

640
00:37:48,540 --> 00:37:50,700
 We had two turnovers in the game last year.

641
00:37:51,180 --> 00:37:56,020
 And it's not been something the Falcons have had a big issue with.

642
00:37:56,340 --> 00:37:58,080
 But in a game that's going to be close,

643
00:37:58,160 --> 00:37:59,500
 every possession is going to count.

644
00:37:59,780 --> 00:38:01,300
 Jeffrey Jones on the sideline.

645
00:38:01,380 --> 00:38:02,740
 He's got his blood pressure down now.

646
00:38:02,860 --> 00:38:03,500
 We gave him his medicine.

647
00:38:03,860 --> 00:38:04,700
 He's all good down there.

648
00:38:04,780 --> 00:38:06,900
 J.J., playing away is not easy.

649
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,060
 But this stadium here, one thing about it,

650
00:38:09,100 --> 00:38:11,440
 on the visitor's side, I like it for this reason.

651
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:15,540
 The stands are right on top of the field and on the sideline.

652
00:38:15,940 --> 00:38:18,440
 The Falcons players are going to hear the crowd tonight.

653
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:22,280
 Yeah, it's very close on this.

654
00:38:25,740 --> 00:38:27,240
 We're losing you a little bit, J.J.

655
00:38:27,240 --> 00:38:29,080
 I'm not sure if I caught you at the bad place.

656
00:38:29,580 --> 00:38:30,780
 We'll let you get more adjusted here.

657
00:38:30,780 --> 00:38:32,180
 But you're breaking up on us pretty good.

658
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:36,140
 J.J. may be out there at the car trying to get something to the car.

659
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:36,760
 I didn't know it.

660
00:38:37,220 --> 00:38:39,080
 I was over there in the building.

661
00:38:39,380 --> 00:38:40,420
 Is it better?

662
00:38:40,660 --> 00:38:41,600
 That's much better, yeah.

663
00:38:41,660 --> 00:38:44,280
 Now that he comes outside again, he was inside, guys.

664
00:38:44,300 --> 00:38:45,020
 He was getting dry.

665
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:46,500
 That's all he was, blocking the wind.

666
00:38:46,720 --> 00:38:51,320
 I was just checking it out, seeing what the wind was like up against that brick wall over there.

667
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:57,740
 But, yeah, as far as playing here, it's a new field, still a relatively new high school.

668
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,960
 You know, I say new, what is this, about six years old, five or six years old?

669
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:02,460
 Probably so.

670
00:39:02,980 --> 00:39:04,540
 But good technology.

671
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:10,280
 You know, some of these places we go, it's updated stadiums and some need some work.

672
00:39:10,380 --> 00:39:11,560
 But this one's certainly new.

673
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,840
 And, you know, I probably would have changed a couple things up, you know.

674
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:16,760
 But it's a good stadium.

675
00:39:17,740 --> 00:39:21,940
 We haven't had the best of luck here as far as weather goes.

676
00:39:22,060 --> 00:39:27,120
 You know, last time, not the last time, but the time before we were here, we had a pretty long lightning delay.

677
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:33,540
 And, you know, when you're sitting in the metal bleachers right there, the last place you really want to be is sitting in any of those bleachers.

678
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:39,900
 So we had to take a little bit of refuge in the car and in the nice weight room facility they have over here on the north end.

679
00:39:40,540 --> 00:39:48,940
 But, you know, as far as the typical weather turns right when we come over here to Austin, it's going to be, you know, another one of those factors that we're going to have to overcome.

680
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,200
 You know, it's just a simple fact of it.

681
00:39:51,260 --> 00:39:54,500
 There's a lot of things that are playing in Austin's favor tonight.

682
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:58,320
 Yeah, like Mike said on the way over here, there's a recipe tonight.

683
00:39:58,500 --> 00:40:04,800
 And, you know, we have to be on our game in order to come out of here on the good end.

684
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:06,480
 That is well said by J.J. there.

685
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:10,380
 And, you know, Florence comes in this game averaging 37 points a game.

686
00:40:10,740 --> 00:40:17,240
 That's ninth best in 5A, by the way, giving up 13 points on defense, which is seventh best as well here tonight.

687
00:40:17,240 --> 00:40:23,820
 So Florence averaging 336 yards per game, 266 rushing, and 71 yards passing.

688
00:40:24,340 --> 00:40:29,800
 Austin on the other side is averaging 28 points a game, but they're giving up almost 26 points a game.

689
00:40:30,380 --> 00:40:36,760
 And Florence has scored, by the way, 34 points on more – six out of seven games this season.

690
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:38,720
 So Florence's offense has been really big.

691
00:40:38,780 --> 00:40:42,280
 Let's look at potential starting lineup tonight for the Florence Falcons.

692
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:46,660
 We'll start with the offensive side, and we'll start right there at running back.

693
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:51,840
 We'll go with DeCarson Johnson, who could go over 1,000 yards tonight with a good game.

694
00:40:52,180 --> 00:40:55,240
 He has 900, I think, plus already on the season.

695
00:40:55,600 --> 00:41:06,300
 The 5'10", 185-pound senior, Mike, we have talked about him ad nauseum, but the fact is he has really been a phenomenal back that has really carried the Falcons when we need him to the most.

696
00:41:06,540 --> 00:41:07,480
 He certainly has.

697
00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:10,420
 You know, we were able to rotate backs early in the season.

698
00:41:10,580 --> 00:41:12,340
 We had three guys that could really tote the rock.

699
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:20,700
 But, you know, as it were, you know, a couple guys got dinged up along the way, and he got the lion's share of the duties, and he's earned it.

700
00:41:21,060 --> 00:41:27,540
 You know, even when those guys come back, they're going to have to, you know, earn each and every touch they have because he's been such a special back here for the Falcons.

701
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:32,180
 Quarterback will be Costin Mahan, 6'2", 225, the sophomore.

702
00:41:32,660 --> 00:41:33,580
 He wears number two.

703
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:35,120
 He has done an excellent job this year.

704
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:37,980
 He has, I think, six or seven touchdowns on the season.

705
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:41,900
 I think it's six officially touchdowns on the season for the sophomore quarterback.

706
00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:44,860
 That offensive line for Florence has been stellar.

707
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:49,920
 So impressed with them so far this season, including Raymond Russell up there at left tackle.

708
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,820
 The sophomore wears number 71, 6'1", 280.

709
00:41:53,220 --> 00:41:56,920
 Jacob Harper at center, 5'11", 245, just a junior.

710
00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:58,820
 He'll be up there wearing number 57.

711
00:41:59,380 --> 00:42:02,140
 Also in there, Ezra Boyd, a sophomore, wears number 77.

712
00:42:02,140 --> 00:42:07,900
 He'll play at guard, along with Dre Moore, a senior that's 5'10", 255, wears number 51.

713
00:42:08,260 --> 00:42:12,060
 And then also Orlando Rounds, the senior, who wears number 65.

714
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:16,740
 On the outside, you'll have a couple wide receivers, Kevontae Green, 6'3", 220.

715
00:42:16,740 --> 00:42:19,040
 I think Kevontae Green could have a big game tonight.

716
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:22,660
 This is the type of team that I sense that Kevontae could really show out.

717
00:42:23,060 --> 00:42:25,920
 I mean, he has the ability to show out each and every game.

718
00:42:26,140 --> 00:42:27,680
 He has that type of ability.

719
00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:31,620
 And, you know, if the opportunity presents itself and he has the ball, he could have a big game.

720
00:42:32,260 --> 00:42:32,940
 I think that's big.

721
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:39,320
 And also J.C. Goolsby, who is our wide receiver, 5'11", 165, a senior, wears number 14.

722
00:42:39,660 --> 00:42:43,340
 And the thing about J.C. tonight, the most important job he may have is catching punts,

723
00:42:43,460 --> 00:42:45,920
 or maybe even more so, Mike, staying away from punts.

724
00:42:46,340 --> 00:42:52,060
 It's going to be really going to be a terror being able to catch these balls off these punts, you know.

725
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:56,680
 And, you know, his ability so far to be able to track those things down.

726
00:42:56,820 --> 00:43:00,300
 And, you know, he was doing a really good job in warm-ups as well.

727
00:43:00,700 --> 00:43:04,960
 He's a really special athlete here for the Falcons, and we're going to need him tonight.

728
00:43:05,420 --> 00:43:10,180
 Nelson Elliott would also get the start at number 17, 6'5", about 185 pounds.

729
00:43:10,300 --> 00:43:11,680
 He'll be out there at one wide receiver.

730
00:43:12,100 --> 00:43:15,520
 You'll also have our kicker, Parker Greenhall, the seniors had an outstanding season.

731
00:43:15,860 --> 00:43:18,420
 As a punter and as a kicker, he's really going to be tested tonight.

732
00:43:18,720 --> 00:43:22,080
 Have to be wise on his kicks and being a smart kicker as well.

733
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:25,140
 And so everybody's going to have to be on their P's and Q's tonight,

734
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,320
 getting ready for this matchup against the Austin Black Bears.

735
00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:32,900
 Again, a big shout-out to our good friends at Garner Pierce Auto for our vehicle and away games.

736
00:43:33,240 --> 00:43:34,600
 We appreciate them taking care of us.

737
00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:35,500
 They'll take care of you.

738
00:43:35,740 --> 00:43:36,840
 Holidays are around the corner.

739
00:43:37,260 --> 00:43:40,300
 That's Garner Pierce Auto, Florence Boulevard in Florence.

740
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:44,840
 We continue to count down to kickoff, TNT Fireworks pregame show, back in two minutes.

741
00:43:45,940 --> 00:43:47,440

744

746
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:12,460

747
00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:16,600

 First Southern Bank is your neighborhood bank.

752
00:44:32,420 --> 00:44:38,700
 Sometimes a local financial institution with deep roots and a commitment to the community can provide just the banking services you need.

753
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:42,160
 We always root for the home team, because we are the home team.

754
00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:43,360
 First Southern Bank.

755
00:44:43,620 --> 00:44:44,340
 Equal housing lender.

756
00:44:44,460 --> 00:44:45,200
 Member FDIC.

757
00:44:46,720 --> 00:44:52,300

764
00:45:17,700 --> 00:45:20,200
 Hello, this is Kevin Arnold with Village Discount Drugs.

765
00:45:20,300 --> 00:45:22,240
 We've been in the Shoals since 1979.

766
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:23,320
 We live here.

767
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:24,460
 We go to school here.

768
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:28,860
 Do you want to do business with someone local or a company from Rhode Island, Illinois, or Arkansas?

769
00:45:28,860 --> 00:45:31,740
 The large chains just don't reinvest in our community.

770
00:45:31,900 --> 00:45:34,020
 The large chains don't sponsor Little League teams.

771
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,240
 And they certainly don't sponsor Falcon football.

772
00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:39,660
 And don't just buy from Village Drugs, but support all our local businesses.

773
00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:44,820
 Let these local businesses give you the service you deserve while keeping your local economy strong.

774
00:45:44,980 --> 00:45:47,500
 So make the switch to Village Drugs, a local pharmacy,

775
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:50,300
 where we are the Shoals' problem solvers and people pleasers.

776
00:45:57,380 --> 00:46:00,400
 Back at Austin High School, the TNT Fireworks pregame show.

777
00:46:00,820 --> 00:46:03,260
 Kevin Johnson, Mike Albertson, Jeffrey Jones, John McDaniel.

778
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:04,720
 Glad to be with you on this one tonight.

779
00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:12,220
 Should be a huge, huge region game on a windy, blustery night, which could play a factor here in this big, key region matchup.

780
00:46:12,300 --> 00:46:22,960
 As Florence plays for a potential time to have a region championship, we will say how the playoff or the region championship bears out is this.

781
00:46:23,300 --> 00:46:23,960
 Florence wins.

782
00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:25,160
 They win the region championship.

783
00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:31,540
 If they lose the next week, Austin, if they could win against Russellville, Austin would sneak in and win the region championship.

784
00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:34,440
 But a lot of things can happen between now and then.

785
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:38,140
 So let's just take care of business first and foremost here tonight.

786
00:46:38,300 --> 00:46:41,260
 And that should be what the Florence Falcons are looking forward to doing as well.

787
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:47,920
 You know, Mike, because of the familiarity we talked about with this Austin team, you've got to control your emotions, too.

788
00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:54,120
 Because this is one of those games where I know the two programs, they know each other well, the kids know each other well.

789
00:46:54,120 --> 00:47:02,440
 This is one of those where you've just got to control your emotions and not hurt your team, as we've seen other teams do at all levels in the past couple of weeks.

790
00:47:02,780 --> 00:47:03,640
 You certainly do.

791
00:47:03,820 --> 00:47:07,340
 You know, controlling your emotions, especially on the road, is super important.

792
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:17,040
 You know, there's definitely adversity coming in this game and how they react to it and their abilities to be able to fight through it and continue to focus is going to be important.

793
00:47:17,940 --> 00:47:20,740
 We're going to toss for a timeout as they get ready for the national anthem.

794
00:47:20,740 --> 00:47:26,740
 You're listening to the TNT Fireworks pregame show of Florence Falcons football here on 93.9 The Score.

795
00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:29,420
 We're back after this three-minute timeout.

796
00:47:30,180 --> 00:47:36,700

 Back at Austin High School, Kevin Johnson, Mike Albertson, Jeffrey Jones, John McDaniel, glad to be with you on a windy night.

832
00:50:51,220 --> 00:50:57,360
 And unfortunately, the weather meteorologists are not always perfect, and it is starting to rain a little bit.

833
00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:01,140
 Light rain and could get a little heavier here for about 20 or 25 minutes.

834
00:51:01,260 --> 00:51:03,400
 Our guys are actually covering up because we're outside.

835
00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:05,240
 We're covering up the best we can.

836
00:51:05,300 --> 00:51:08,720
 We're going to tape some things down, but I'll carry it for now while they get that done.

837
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:14,600
 Because in this whole time, this Falcon seat knew it was not going to be easy to win a region championship.

838
00:51:15,100 --> 00:51:17,520
 And lo and behold, the fact is, it's going to be weather.

839
00:51:17,700 --> 00:51:18,520
 It's going to be rain.

840
00:51:18,580 --> 00:51:19,260
 It's going to be wind.

841
00:51:19,500 --> 00:51:22,140
 If you're going to win it, well, you're going to have to just do it the hard way.

842
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:28,860
 And let's see if the Falcons can pull that off tonight as umbrellas start popping up across the stadium now.

843
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:34,440
 The other thing that's quite interesting is as these umbrellas pop up with the wind blowing, they could get blown away too.

844
00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:38,880
 So we'll have to be heads up of flying trampolines and flying umbrellas here tonight.

845
00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:43,520
 Let's look at the Florence defense that will be the starting potential starters for tonight's game.

846
00:51:43,980 --> 00:51:47,680
 We'll go at the nose guard, Jaden White, 6'3", 275, a junior.

847
00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:52,140
 He has a – well, I won't give all the stats because they're not updated from last week.

848
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:55,960
 But he has a double digit, so over 20 tackles on the season.

849
00:51:56,220 --> 00:51:58,540
 And he has forced four fumbles as well.

850
00:51:58,780 --> 00:52:03,660
 He'll be joined on the defensive line by A.J. Dixon, a junior, 5'9", 240.

851
00:52:04,240 --> 00:52:05,100
 Where's number 99?

852
00:52:05,420 --> 00:52:09,520
 He's forced a fumble and a return one for a touchdown as well.

853
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:14,880
 Nate Pride also will be there, number 98, junior, 6'2", 60, 17 tackles.

854
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:18,060
 One of his big keys is he's great at breaking up passes.

855
00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:27,840
 But these guys that are on the outside are going to have to really be good to help maybe stop that really big, big running game that Austin has.

856
00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:30,000
 The middle linebacker will be Bo Burski.

857
00:52:30,300 --> 00:52:33,060
 He wears number 26, the junior, 6'1", 205.

858
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:38,880
 He'll be sliding in there along with Jaden Irons, who wears number 23, the senior, 6'2", 215.

859
00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:41,220
 Those two guys are big guys.

860
00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:45,760
 They're going to be really counted on tonight to play well against this Austin team.

861
00:52:45,900 --> 00:52:51,300
 Outside linebacker, maybe the guy that's the unsung hero of this defense is Jaden Martinez.

862
00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:52,640
 Where's number 32?

863
00:52:52,780 --> 00:52:53,440
 Only a junior.

864
00:52:53,580 --> 00:52:57,040
 The Bandits, 5'10", 170, maybe 180 even.

865
00:52:57,100 --> 00:52:58,840
 He's a bigger kid than I thought.

866
00:52:59,140 --> 00:53:00,880
 But he plays really strong, plays well.

867
00:53:01,180 --> 00:53:04,520
 He'll have a big opportunity tonight to make some big plays.

868
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:11,260
 And then on the other side, you'll have coming in, and I'll get it here in just a minute, a couple others here.

869
00:53:11,340 --> 00:53:13,060
 Let's get first, let's get the others coming in here.

870
00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:13,680
 Oh, yeah, here we go.

871
00:53:13,740 --> 00:53:14,580
 Austin Klotzbach.

872
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,900
 Austin Klotzbach, 6'2", 205, a senior.

873
00:53:18,140 --> 00:53:19,220
 He'll wear number 22.

874
00:53:19,400 --> 00:53:24,060
 We're still taping everything down here, including myself a little bit, trying to stay out of the range some.

875
00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:28,700
 On the defensive backs, they've got to stay alert, and they've got to make plays as well.

876
00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:31,380
 Des Brown, 5'10", 175, a senior.

877
00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:35,680
 He'll be one cornerback on the other, London Petty Poole, who's played well.

878
00:53:36,020 --> 00:53:37,900
 He is 5'7", 150 pounds.

879
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:40,940
 The defensive backs and the safeties, Landon Rayner.

880
00:53:41,260 --> 00:53:43,260
 Rayner, 6'1", 165, a senior.

881
00:53:43,660 --> 00:53:46,560
 He'll be joined by Otis Sistrunk, who is 6'1", 210.

882
00:53:46,940 --> 00:53:51,460
 You may also hear a lot back there, Caden Ward tonight, 5'11", 160.

883
00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:58,460
 And, Mike, honestly, if you're the defensive coordinator for Florence, I would think that you would come in here and say,

884
00:53:58,860 --> 00:54:05,140
 you know, I've got my regular 3-4 defense, but don't be surprised if he doesn't throw a few extra bodies out there

885
00:54:05,140 --> 00:54:09,740
 to try to go man-to-man against this Austin team that will try to run the ball.

886
00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:17,080
 Absolutely, and, you know, especially with this win, the way it's gusting like this, this will highly affect the air game as well.

887
00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:23,660
 So being able to use, you know, that strategy and take some things off the board will definitely be important.

888
00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:25,840
 It'll be a chess match throughout, no doubt.

889
00:54:26,100 --> 00:54:31,180
 The chess match is about to start, too, as now the captain's getting ready to come out for the Falcons.

890
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:33,200
 Drew Hill will be one of those, Orlando Rounds.

891
00:54:33,720 --> 00:54:35,500
 Dre Moore will be one as well.

892
00:54:35,660 --> 00:54:41,040
 And the last one, I want to make sure to get there, and I have to turn my page here because we're having to lock everything down.

893
00:54:41,420 --> 00:54:46,860
 The last one there will be number 90, and that's the Kai Foster, who will be the captain tonight for the Florence Falcons,

894
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:53,740
 wearing the road white, blue ladders, blue helmets, and the home team, Austin, wearing all black and orange.

895
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:57,700
 As the umbrellas are out, the light rain is falling, blowing really sideways.

896
00:54:57,900 --> 00:54:58,820
 It don't matter what you do.

897
00:54:59,080 --> 00:54:59,900
 You're going to get wet.

898
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:00,820
 You're going to get cold.

899
00:55:01,300 --> 00:55:03,660
 Mike, I'm just glad that you wore long pants tonight, you know?

900
00:55:05,060 --> 00:55:07,260
 Yes, I did not wear long pants tonight.

901
00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:08,020
 That's right, folks.

902
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:08,660
 That's right.

903
00:55:08,720 --> 00:55:12,200
 That's my buddy, Mike Allison, again from New Jersey, came tonight.

904
00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:16,600
 We're bundled up, and he walks down and says, ah, it's not going to be that bad, and he is in shorts.

905
00:55:16,700 --> 00:55:17,620
 But, hey, you know what?

906
00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:18,520
 You're not the only one.

907
00:55:18,580 --> 00:55:19,900
 I've said that before one time.

908
00:55:19,900 --> 00:55:23,740
 I did see about three other people earlier today wearing shorts, and I was like,

909
00:55:23,820 --> 00:55:25,340
 those guys are just as dumb as Mike tonight.

910
00:55:27,180 --> 00:55:31,000
 You know, the other thing I saw tonight, though, is our good friend Parker Driggers,

911
00:55:31,100 --> 00:55:34,800
 assistant coach for Florence High School, he, too, had on shorts tonight.

912
00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:36,840
 He was like, oh, no, this is no problem for us.

913
00:55:36,980 --> 00:55:39,500
 So, hey, you've got some company there, Mike, so you're not alone, my friend.

914
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:44,700
 I'm definitely not alone, and I know that people don't get it, and it's perfectly fine.

915
00:55:44,860 --> 00:55:53,140
 I don't expect you to know what it's like being me, but this is a July day in New Jersey, so we're good.

916
00:55:53,860 --> 00:55:55,240
 Man, if it's a July day.

917
00:55:55,780 --> 00:55:57,060
 Aren't you glad you're in the south?

918
00:55:57,240 --> 00:56:01,820
 The lights go out here at Austin High School with the spotlight in the A.

919
00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:07,260
 It's an orange A with trimmed and black on the 50-yard line.

920
00:56:07,620 --> 00:56:12,420
 To our left, the end zone will have Austin in that end zone, and to the right as well in orange letters

921
00:56:12,420 --> 00:56:15,740
 with the black covering behind it there, the background.

922
00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:21,040
 You know, years ago, Jeffrey Jones, Austin's colors, I believe, used to be orange and brown at one time,

923
00:56:21,420 --> 00:56:22,900
 if I'm not mistaken, too, but they made that.

924
00:56:22,900 --> 00:56:24,180
 I think that was more, that was Grissom.

925
00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:25,060
 That was Grissom, that's right.

926
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:27,320
 Grissom had the orange and brown, and they got rid of the brown.

927
00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:29,500
 They've always had that ugly orange and black here at Austin.

928
00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:34,160
 I tell you, folks, if you haven't picked up on it, Jeffrey loves this team tonight.

929
00:56:34,220 --> 00:56:35,120
 He's looking forward to this one.

930
00:56:35,340 --> 00:56:38,000
 I'm just ready to get out here, and I want to hit them, hit them in the mouth.

931
00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:38,700
 That's what I want to say.

932
00:56:38,700 --> 00:56:40,420
 Well, let's see, the Falcons, will they start fast?

933
00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:42,440
 That will be a key, and let's talk about that.

934
00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:44,260
 Mike, you're key for this Falcons team.

935
00:56:44,260 --> 00:56:46,440
 What do you, Nick Falcons, need to do to win this game tonight?

936
00:56:46,860 --> 00:56:49,580
 I've got to look at my notes now that are now bumping away.

937
00:56:49,720 --> 00:56:50,980
 You're going to have to take a run with it.

938
00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:52,300
 I'm going to take a run with it.

939
00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:55,700
 Well, you know, I think it's really going to come down to offensive production this game.

940
00:56:56,300 --> 00:57:01,900
 You know, our defense, if they do what they do, I think anything over 24 points wins this game.

941
00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:04,080
 So that's what I'm looking for.

942
00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:06,320
 I'm looking for the offensive production to be over 24 points.

943
00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:08,020
 By the way, the Black Bears changed up.

944
00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:11,180
 They were in blacks and warming up, and they've gone to orange jerseys and black pants.

945
00:57:11,320 --> 00:57:16,640
 So they have orange jerseys, black pants, and black helmets with black numbers, sort of, and a white trim.

946
00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:21,160
 So we'll do our best to be nice to the Black Bears and get their names and all down there.

947
00:57:21,220 --> 00:57:23,200
 The captains shaking hands, greeting one another.

948
00:57:23,580 --> 00:57:24,960
 Good sportsmanship there.

949
00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:26,440
 Let's send it down to Jeffrey Jones.

950
00:57:26,780 --> 00:57:27,820
 Austin, you're the home team.

951
00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:29,260
 We'll call you orange or black.

952
00:57:29,900 --> 00:57:30,880
 Pulling into the visiting team.

953
00:57:30,940 --> 00:57:31,700
 We'll call you white.

954
00:57:32,420 --> 00:57:33,020
 Here's my coin.

955
00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:34,500
 Blue as heads and says heads.

956
00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:36,680
 Red as tails and says tails.

957
00:57:36,820 --> 00:57:37,880
 You're going to call it in the air.

958
00:57:38,220 --> 00:57:39,560
 You're going to let it hit and whatever it shows.

959
00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:39,920
 You're ready?

960
00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:40,600
 Call it loud.

961
00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:41,720
 Heads.

962
00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:44,640
 He's tails.

963
00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:45,520
 He's won the toss.

964
00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:46,580
 He's going to defer, correct?

965
00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:47,100
 Yes, sir.

966
00:57:47,660 --> 00:57:48,600
 Austin won the toss.

967
00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:49,240
 They're going to defer.

968
00:57:50,300 --> 00:57:57,340
 And Florence is going to pick the side with the wind blowing either against them or to their back.

969
00:57:57,420 --> 00:58:02,960
 With the wind gusting at about 35 miles an hour, it's time for football and a chance to win a region championship.

970
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:04,640
 You're listening to Florence Falcon Football.

971
00:58:04,900 --> 00:58:05,880
 We're back in 30.

972
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:13,040

977
00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:43,880
 One, two, three, four.

978
00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:46,740
 Time to play the game.

979
00:58:50,340 --> 00:58:52,080
 Time to play the game.

980
00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:56,540
 Stand by for kickoff.

981
00:58:56,900 --> 00:58:58,080
 It's game time.

982
00:58:58,080 --> 00:59:21,680
 Florence Falcons football is brought to you by Florence Utility, Florence City School, the law firm of Johnson, Passeur, Medley, and Burchill, the North Alabama Boney Joint Clinic, TNT Fireworks, Yogurt Mountain, Whataburger, Singing River Dentistry, Village Discount Drugs, Hugo's Mexican Restaurant,

984
00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:35,160
 Now let's go to the press box for tonight's game.

985
00:59:35,620 --> 00:59:38,580
 Here's the voice of the Florence Falcons, Kevin Johnson.

986
00:59:39,340 --> 00:59:41,840
 Oh, if we can only be in the press box.

987
00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:54,540
 We'll be ready to take on the Black Bears.

988
00:59:54,820 --> 00:59:58,400
 Florence in all white, blue helmets will get ready to return the kick.

989
00:59:58,700 --> 00:59:59,720
 It'll be back deep.

990
00:59:59,880 --> 01:00:04,060
 Goolsby and Morris back deep for the Falcons as they'll be going left to right.

991
01:00:04,460 --> 01:00:06,640
 A seven-man crew having the prayers officials.

992
01:00:07,020 --> 01:00:10,280
 We appreciate the officials doing the games each and every Friday night.

993
01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:14,040
 We can't do it without these men who give back to the game as well.

994
01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:17,760
 So the Black Bears will get ready to kick it away.

995
01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:20,700
 Oscar Delgado has been the kicker.

996
01:00:21,180 --> 01:00:23,620
 He will have the wind to his back is what I'd say.

997
01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:25,080
 Jeffrey, forgive me.

998
01:00:25,160 --> 01:00:26,220
 I sort of got turned around.

999
01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:27,000
 You might can help me.

1000
01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:29,580
 They're kicking with the north wind behind them, correct?

1001
01:00:29,580 --> 01:00:33,760
 They're kicking with the wind behind them, and we're going to be going into the wind in the first quarter.

1002
01:00:33,920 --> 01:00:38,060
 First quarter going into the wind, but I think we're going into the north end zone is what we'll say

1003
01:00:38,060 --> 01:00:42,800
 as that wind is coming sort of from the northwest coming in right now.

1004
01:00:42,980 --> 01:00:44,860
 Delgado will put it on the left hash.

1005
01:00:45,600 --> 01:00:47,300
 He'll have the wind behind him.

1006
01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:53,100
 Now Austin did recover an onside kick last week in the fourth quarter against Hartsell.

1007
01:00:53,280 --> 01:00:55,680
 That really turned that game for them as well.

1008
01:00:56,520 --> 01:01:00,840
 Are you ready for some 5A football and a region championship?

1009
01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:02,140
 We're about to find out.

1010
01:01:02,720 --> 01:01:05,520
 Delgado approaches, and we're underway.

1011
01:01:05,940 --> 01:01:06,840
 High and deep.

1012
01:01:07,220 --> 01:01:09,820
 Morris will take it in the end zone, and that'll be a touchback.

1013
01:01:10,180 --> 01:01:12,260
 It'll be Falcons football at the 20.

1014
01:01:12,500 --> 01:01:14,020
 You're listening to Florence Falcons football.

1015
01:01:14,180 --> 01:01:15,620
 Let's pause for station identification.

1016
01:01:16,940 --> 01:01:26,940
 The voice of the Florence High School Falcons, WYTK-FM, Rogersville, Athens, Decatur, the Shoals, 93-9, the score.

1017
01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:35,760
 Florence will have the football to start this pivotal game in Class 5A Region 7

1018
01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:37,640
 as they take over the Austin Blackbears on the road.

1019
01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:43,300
 It'll be Kirkman wide left, Goolsby, and Elliott to the right, two backs in the backfield.

1020
01:01:43,660 --> 01:01:47,160
 That is Williams, Kayon, and also DeCarson Johnson for Mahan.

1021
01:01:47,600 --> 01:01:51,860
 DeCarson's going to have it off the right side, finds a room, got to cross the 25, up to the 27,

1022
01:01:52,060 --> 01:01:55,800
 all the way out to the 28, giving Adol to carry off the right side.

1023
01:01:56,020 --> 01:02:01,220
 That's a great job by the Falcons right off the bat, being able to plug up that line of scrimmage

1024
01:02:01,220 --> 01:02:03,140
 and really impose their will right away.

1025
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:07,040
 DeCarson Johnson with a nice cut inside to make it a nice game for first down.

1026
01:02:07,320 --> 01:02:10,920
 Second down, we'll call it two to go, going into the wind of the Falcons.

1027
01:02:11,060 --> 01:02:14,620
 Two wide to the left, one to the short side is Kirkman on the second two play.

1028
01:02:14,720 --> 01:02:16,860
 Try to get the Blackbears to jump, and they do.

1029
01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:19,080
 That only five yards going the other way.

1030
01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:21,240
 And this Falcon crowd is large.

1031
01:02:21,320 --> 01:02:25,300
 It's as large maybe here on the Florence side almost as it is on the Austin side.

1032
01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:29,540
 So the Falcon fans here right on top of the Falcon players are going to be loud and proud.

1033
01:02:29,660 --> 01:02:32,900
 I hear a few cowbells, and it'll move the change for the first first down tonight

1034
01:02:32,900 --> 01:02:35,360
 for the Falcons at the 33-yard line.

1035
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:37,280
 Well, they haven't moved the change yet.

1036
01:02:37,340 --> 01:02:38,700
 They still need to move the change over here.

1037
01:02:39,320 --> 01:02:42,140
 I don't know what's going on, but it's first and 10 at the 33.

1038
01:02:42,300 --> 01:02:43,240
 They've got to move the change.

1039
01:02:43,560 --> 01:02:44,740
 The change haven't been moved yet.

1040
01:02:44,780 --> 01:02:45,940
 We're waiting on the change to move.

1041
01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:49,680
 And finally, one chain guy says go to the other end.

1042
01:02:50,120 --> 01:02:52,100
 Jeffrey, you may have to help out on the sideline on that.

1043
01:02:52,120 --> 01:02:52,600
 I'm not sure.

1044
01:02:52,600 --> 01:02:55,380
 First and 10 at the 33.

1045
01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:56,520
 Welcome to Austin.

1046
01:02:57,100 --> 01:02:58,240
 Two backs in the backfield again.

1047
01:02:58,380 --> 01:03:00,000
 This time coming off the left side is Williams.

1048
01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:00,980
 Williams cuts forward.

1049
01:03:01,060 --> 01:03:02,360
 He's got to lose to the 40 and 43.

1050
01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:03,820
 Clip down at the 44.

1051
01:03:04,220 --> 01:03:04,900
 Gain of 11.

1052
01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:07,080
 Welcome back, Kayon Williams.

1053
01:03:07,460 --> 01:03:08,420
 You saw him right away.

1054
01:03:08,540 --> 01:03:13,860
 He was bringing it around the right side and stuck his foot in the turf and exploded upfield,

1055
01:03:14,300 --> 01:03:16,060
 being able to make a guy miss.

1056
01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:18,380
 He actually almost got horse collared there.

1057
01:03:18,380 --> 01:03:21,580
 They had him from behind, but he was taken down as well.

1058
01:03:21,700 --> 01:03:22,920
 That's a good sign right there.

1059
01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:23,280
 Beautiful.

1060
01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:25,360
 Falcons back-to-back first downs at the 44.

1061
01:03:27,060 --> 01:03:28,060
 Again, off the right side.

1062
01:03:28,140 --> 01:03:30,260
 Again, Kayon with a big blocker off the right side to the 50.

1063
01:03:30,420 --> 01:03:31,260
 Down to 49.

1064
01:03:31,600 --> 01:03:33,120
 Gave him about five or six right there.

1065
01:03:33,500 --> 01:03:37,840
 Brought down by a couple of black bears, but that's enough for a good six-yard game.

1066
01:03:38,060 --> 01:03:41,440
 Finally, the middle linebacker, Rapporto, comes in and makes the tackle.

1067
01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:45,500
 Lead blocker out there to Carson Johnson, playing a different role there,

1068
01:03:45,500 --> 01:03:48,120
 but really led the way.

1069
01:03:48,980 --> 01:03:51,980
 He really got to that second level and put his pads on the linebacker.

1070
01:03:52,020 --> 01:03:54,360
 Everything to the right side right now for Florence.

1071
01:03:55,040 --> 01:03:56,960
 Second down and five to go at midfield.

1072
01:03:57,780 --> 01:03:58,980
 Two backs still in the backfield.

1073
01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:00,900
 Again, off the right side is Johnson.

1074
01:04:01,040 --> 01:04:01,700
 Cuts it up the middle.

1075
01:04:01,980 --> 01:04:03,120
 Got about two or three that time.

1076
01:04:03,200 --> 01:04:06,120
 This time, a host of the black bears find him and push him back.

1077
01:04:06,520 --> 01:04:07,820
 But it'll be close to the sticks.

1078
01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:09,320
 Jeffrey Jones, you're down there.

1079
01:04:09,380 --> 01:04:10,720
 It's about a yard short maybe?

1080
01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:16,880
 If that, I'd say about a yard and bringing the big hit.

1081
01:04:16,960 --> 01:04:17,560
 I think that's a first down, isn't it?

1082
01:04:17,980 --> 01:04:18,800
 Yep, it sure is.

1083
01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:19,880
 You're going to move the chains.

1084
01:04:19,980 --> 01:04:21,400
 I got a bad angle right here.

1085
01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,080
 We got a much better spot than I thought we'd get.

1086
01:04:24,220 --> 01:04:27,360
 But all the way down to the 46-yard line of Austin, just underway.

1087
01:04:27,880 --> 01:04:31,020
 Ten minutes and change counting here in the first quarter.

1088
01:04:31,160 --> 01:04:34,500
 And Florence, with the first possession, has already moved it into Austin territory.

1089
01:04:35,340 --> 01:04:40,260
 Florence will have Blank and Kirkland coming off to the right side.

1090
01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:43,940
 Kirkland Blank and Mitch Boyd, excuse me, will be the tight ends.

1091
01:04:44,660 --> 01:04:45,820
 Off the right side again.

1092
01:04:45,900 --> 01:04:47,700
 Going to leave it with Williams up the middle.

1093
01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:48,320
 Breaks a tackle.

1094
01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:49,220
 He stays on his feet.

1095
01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:51,500
 25, 20, 15, 10.

1096
01:04:51,600 --> 01:04:53,740
 They're chasing him at the five and knock him out of bounds.

1097
01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:55,540
 Inside the five at the three.

1098
01:04:56,060 --> 01:04:56,960
 Make sure he's okay.

1099
01:04:57,060 --> 01:04:58,060
 He hops up okay.

1100
01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:00,220
 Give him about 40 on that one.

1101
01:05:00,860 --> 01:05:04,580
 You could see, you know, as he broke up into the open field,

1102
01:05:04,940 --> 01:05:07,480
 you could see he's still a little hobbled.

1103
01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:10,340
 He's not 100%, but he's giving it his all.

1104
01:05:10,460 --> 01:05:13,520
 That was all effort right there, making it down inside the five.

1105
01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:16,940
 Spotted down around the four-yard line.

1106
01:05:17,260 --> 01:05:22,420
 First and goal for Florence at the four after Kayon Williams breaks off a 40-yard carry.

1107
01:05:23,040 --> 01:05:25,820
 I said Kayon's behind the fullback to Hada.

1108
01:05:26,960 --> 01:05:27,900
 Two tight ends.

1109
01:05:28,260 --> 01:05:29,500
 Under center is Mahan.

1110
01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:31,600
 Going to leave it off the right side with Kayon.

1111
01:05:31,720 --> 01:05:32,400
 Cuts it up in the middle.

1112
01:05:32,540 --> 01:05:37,020
 Pushes forward to the one, to the touchdown as he puts it in the end zone.

1113
01:05:37,140 --> 01:05:41,680
 And Florence strikes first as Kayon Williams is welcomed back.

1114
01:05:42,020 --> 01:05:43,580
 And he does it with six points.

1115
01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:47,020
 That's a great job by Williams to be able to find that hole.

1116
01:05:47,180 --> 01:05:49,440
 And he stuck his foot in the turf.

1117
01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:53,620
 He put his head down and he drove through three black bears into the end zone there.

1118
01:05:53,620 --> 01:05:58,180
 That's a great sign for the Falcons to be able to impose their will on that very first drive.

1119
01:05:58,560 --> 01:06:00,180
 Green Hall to attempt the PAT.

1120
01:06:01,780 --> 01:06:02,740
 Mahan to hold.

1121
01:06:04,380 --> 01:06:05,300
 Everything is good.

1122
01:06:05,640 --> 01:06:05,880
 Kick.

1123
01:06:06,540 --> 01:06:07,360
 On the way.

1124
01:06:07,700 --> 01:06:08,000
 Kick.

1125
01:06:08,140 --> 01:06:08,740
 It's good.

1126
01:06:09,300 --> 01:06:10,780
 Florence leads it 7-0.

1127
01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:11,940
 9.38 to go.

1128
01:06:12,340 --> 01:06:13,500
 Falcons lead it by 7.

1129
01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:14,560
 This is Falcon football.

1130
01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:15,700
 We're back in 30.

1131
01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:18,420
 Hey Falcon fans, this is Keith at Cypress Creek Indoor Range.

1132
01:06:18,760 --> 01:06:22,840
 We know great defense starts up front and the Falcons start with Jaden White, your defensive tackle.

1133
01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:31,280
 Whether stopping the run or disrupting that quarterback, Jaden has the right tools, puts in the hard work, and has the right training to stop the offensive threat of opposing teams.

1134
01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:35,960
 Let Cypress Creek Indoor Range provide you with the tools, training, and resources to defend your family.

1135
01:06:36,020 --> 01:06:43,220
 We're the biggest gun store in the Shoals and the only indoor shooting range and training center to provide everything you need to have the best defense for your family.

1136
01:06:43,720 --> 01:06:47,900
 Cypress Creek Indoor Range is located at 5060, Highway 157, and Underwood, Petersville.

1137
01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:51,480
 On the web, cypresscreekrange.com, and on social media.

1138
01:06:51,940 --> 01:06:52,500
 Go Falcons!

1139
01:06:58,800 --> 01:07:05,180
 Back at Windy Austin High School, where Florence takes the opening kick into the wind and goes 80 yards.

1140
01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:07,960
 Let's get that last touchdown to 7-0 lead.

1141
01:07:08,020 --> 01:07:09,380
 How did it start out, John McDaniel?

1142
01:07:09,380 --> 01:07:15,260
 Kevin, it was a 7-play, 80-yard total drive, 2 minutes and 21 seconds that came off the clock.

1143
01:07:15,680 --> 01:07:23,920
 It was capped by a 4-yard Kion Williams touchdown, but the big play was the 41-yard run he had down to the 4.

1144
01:07:24,700 --> 01:07:26,600
 Green Hall will attempt to kick it off.

1145
01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:33,460
 Actually, it's going to be Ward is going to have to come and hold it on the tee because the wind is so strong.

1146
01:07:34,100 --> 01:07:35,720
 Jeffrey Jones, when's the last time you saw that?

1147
01:07:37,140 --> 01:07:39,400
 I do not remember the last time I saw that, to be honest with you.

1148
01:07:39,780 --> 01:07:41,320
 Greenhouse kick is high and hanging.

1149
01:07:41,460 --> 01:07:43,060
 Going to be caught around the 30.

1150
01:07:43,140 --> 01:07:45,620
 Boy, with a catch by the Black Bears and brought down to the 39.

1151
01:07:46,260 --> 01:07:48,140
 That is a tough catch, Mike Albertson.

1152
01:07:48,140 --> 01:07:51,720
 It could have easily been fumbled, but instead it will be the Black Bears following around the 40.

1153
01:07:51,720 --> 01:07:59,620
 But we saw that in pregame, once that ball gets up there, it shoots out and it hangs up for a little bit and comes back a yard or two.

1154
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:05,260
 And so when that ball is hanging up there like that, it's really deceiving and difficult for the players.

1155
01:08:05,360 --> 01:08:13,220
 If anyone's familiar with the catching position, if a ball is fouled behind home plate, it actually curbs back towards the field.

1156
01:08:13,220 --> 01:08:15,640
 It's one of those situations where you've got to get ahead of the ball.

1157
01:08:15,980 --> 01:08:21,000
 Donovan Jarman, the quarterback, with Aiden Davis behind him and Davis off the right side.

1158
01:08:21,300 --> 01:08:24,440
 Looking for a running room and gets across the 45 to the 50 and stepped out of bounds.

1159
01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:31,840
 And there's that big offensive line for Alston running right behind about 600 pounds of right tackle and right guard.

1160
01:08:31,900 --> 01:08:33,300
 And they get a first down right away.

1161
01:08:34,840 --> 01:08:37,060
 Yeah, this is going to be a battle in the trenches this game.

1162
01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:42,240
 I mean, there's not going to be too many balls in the air, but they're going to be running this football game.

1163
01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:44,680
 It's going to be a quick, short game with a running clock.

1164
01:08:45,400 --> 01:08:47,720
 To the far right will be Finley Knight.

1165
01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:50,820
 The quarterback, Jarman, will have Davis behind him.

1166
01:08:50,880 --> 01:08:51,960
 This time right up the middle.

1167
01:08:52,320 --> 01:08:53,280
 Davis pushes far.

1168
01:08:53,320 --> 01:08:56,580
 He's hit right at the 48 and pushed down at the 47.

1169
01:08:56,760 --> 01:08:57,660
 Gained of about three.

1170
01:08:59,740 --> 01:09:01,320
 And still, they didn't bring him down.

1171
01:09:01,420 --> 01:09:03,660
 He is at least 215 to 220, Mike.

1172
01:09:03,900 --> 01:09:06,440
 He's just a big, hard kid, and he runs hard.

1173
01:09:06,440 --> 01:09:09,920
 He runs as hard as anybody that we'll see all year.

1174
01:09:10,380 --> 01:09:11,980
 He showed it last year.

1175
01:09:12,060 --> 01:09:15,820
 He was definitely tough to come down, to bring him down.

1176
01:09:16,020 --> 01:09:18,980
 And he's just a really super strong back back there.

1177
01:09:18,980 --> 01:09:19,960
 Second down and six.

1178
01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:21,260
 Sales wide to the right.

1179
01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:23,000
 Two to the left for Jarman.

1180
01:09:23,440 --> 01:09:25,280
 Who's going to give it off to Davis off the right side.

1181
01:09:25,340 --> 01:09:26,340
 He's hit at the line of scrimmage.

1182
01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:27,120
 He's going nowhere.

1183
01:09:27,720 --> 01:09:29,560
 That time the nose guard came up.

1184
01:09:29,840 --> 01:09:31,520
 And 95 says no, sir.

1185
01:09:31,680 --> 01:09:33,060
 Jaden White on the big tackle.

1186
01:09:33,540 --> 01:09:34,560
 That's a big tackle there.

1187
01:09:34,640 --> 01:09:39,080
 That's something that we did not see last year as much, being able to get him at the point

1188
01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:41,460
 of attack and stuff the run on him.

1189
01:09:42,720 --> 01:09:44,700
 Got to watch Gibbs to tie it in.

1190
01:09:44,780 --> 01:09:45,800
 They like to throw it to him.

1191
01:09:46,340 --> 01:09:50,100
 Wide to the left will be Jones and Finley Knighton.

1192
01:09:50,380 --> 01:09:51,740
 To the right will be Sales.

1193
01:09:52,780 --> 01:09:57,780
 On his third, and we'll call it six to go, the Black Bears have to touch the 40 to get a first down.

1194
01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:01,620
 Trailing Florence 7-0 with eight minutes and five seconds and counting.

1195
01:10:02,980 --> 01:10:03,700
 Play caught.

1196
01:10:04,580 --> 01:10:05,460
 Down to eight.

1197
01:10:06,040 --> 01:10:07,960
 Charming the quarterback with a win behind him.

1198
01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:11,560
 Going to leave it off with Davis, who's trying to bounce around up front.

1199
01:10:11,680 --> 01:10:12,220
 It's going to be hit.

1200
01:10:12,300 --> 01:10:17,400
 Got away, but he gets brought down short of the first down around the 43-yard line.

1201
01:10:17,480 --> 01:10:18,760
 It'll bring up fourth down.

1202
01:10:19,380 --> 01:10:23,520
 Nice job that the Falcons come up and making the play there was Martinez.

1203
01:10:25,300 --> 01:10:28,100
 And now decision time, and I don't think it's even going to be a decision.

1204
01:10:28,100 --> 01:10:30,640
 They brought in a big fella.

1205
01:10:31,620 --> 01:10:35,000
 I don't know what his name is, but that's an apt description.

1206
01:10:35,440 --> 01:10:38,700
 He is more weight than we've seen, that's for sure.

1207
01:10:39,520 --> 01:10:42,020
 Heavy set for the Black Bears.

1208
01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:43,220
 They have to get to the 40.

1209
01:10:43,680 --> 01:10:45,340
 Don't jump offside through the Falcons.

1210
01:10:45,740 --> 01:10:47,380
 Falcons crowd making some noise.

1211
01:10:47,920 --> 01:10:48,880
 Davis behind Jarman.

1212
01:10:49,240 --> 01:10:53,720
 Davis is going to get it up to the right side, and he got the first down across the 40 to the 39.

1213
01:10:54,360 --> 01:10:56,600
 That offensive line, but the flag may be on the play.

1214
01:10:57,140 --> 01:10:57,640
 Let's see.

1215
01:10:57,740 --> 01:10:57,960
 Nope.

1216
01:10:58,100 --> 01:11:02,200
 The Falcons were pointing that way, but no, it's first down for the Black Bears at the 39.

1217
01:11:03,480 --> 01:11:04,320
 Get ready.

1218
01:11:04,440 --> 01:11:08,540
 It's going to be a whole dose of running right for this Black Bear team.

1219
01:11:08,700 --> 01:11:14,080
 Florence leads at 7-0, but the Black Bears with back-to-back first downs behind that huge offensive line.

1220
01:11:14,920 --> 01:11:16,140
 Jarman will stay in at quarterback.

1221
01:11:17,360 --> 01:11:20,240
 He is a senior, 5'10", 160 pounds.

1222
01:11:21,400 --> 01:11:30,160
 Again, this time coming left as Davis cuts it back up the middle, found a little run run, stays on his feet across the 30, hit hard there at the 29, but he has enough to move the chains almost again.

1223
01:11:30,200 --> 01:11:31,460
 It'll be about a nine-yard gain.

1224
01:11:31,820 --> 01:11:33,740
 He was tattooed by Sistruck, though.

1225
01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:35,860
 You're seeing it right away.

1226
01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:37,820
 The pads are popping early in this game.

1227
01:11:38,060 --> 01:11:40,800
 These guys are out and really getting after it.

1228
01:11:40,800 --> 01:11:45,180
 You can see a lot of downhill running, but these guys are hitting just as hard on this defense.

1229
01:11:48,240 --> 01:11:50,800
 I think it's still Davis in the background field right there.

1230
01:11:50,940 --> 01:11:54,520
 Number nine with two wideouts to the left.

1231
01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:57,200
 Jarman, the quarterback, going to lead with Davis right at the middle.

1232
01:11:57,520 --> 01:12:00,980
 Breaks a tackle at the 25 and gets down to the 23 before he brought it down there.

1233
01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:04,660
 Too much yardage, and they're finding a lot of open field right there.

1234
01:12:04,760 --> 01:12:06,060
 Martinez again on the tackle.

1235
01:12:06,600 --> 01:12:12,520
 Looks like, Kevin, on our D-line, we're kind of trying to get around blocks instead of staying in our gaps a little bit.

1236
01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:15,180
 Need to be a little more fundamentally sound on those.

1237
01:12:16,700 --> 01:12:20,140
 And right now, Austin going with an extra lineman, basically.

1238
01:12:22,300 --> 01:12:24,880
 So they'll have three on that side of the center.

1239
01:12:26,320 --> 01:12:32,080
 Shot good formation again running right as Davis got a runner in, bouncing outside to the 20, 15, 10, 5, and he will score.

1240
01:12:33,700 --> 01:12:34,280
 Buckle up.

1241
01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:35,360
 It's going to be a good game.

1242
01:12:36,480 --> 01:12:39,380
 As he ran behind that offensive line, and nobody touched him.

1243
01:12:40,040 --> 01:12:45,020
 And everything was run to the right for the Falcons, and everything was run to the right for the Black Bears.

1244
01:12:45,140 --> 01:12:47,580
 And 5.52 to go here in the first quarter.

1245
01:12:47,880 --> 01:12:48,720
 We have a ball game.

1246
01:12:48,800 --> 01:12:49,360
 7-6.

1247
01:12:49,440 --> 01:12:50,500
 We're waiting the extra point.

1248
01:12:53,740 --> 01:12:55,280
 Delgado will attempt the PAT.

1249
01:13:02,760 --> 01:13:03,800
 Waiting on the extra point.

1250
01:13:03,880 --> 01:13:04,120
 Snap.

1251
01:13:04,520 --> 01:13:05,140
 Good snap.

1252
01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:05,860
 Gets it up.

1253
01:13:06,300 --> 01:13:07,100
 And it is good.

1254
01:13:07,200 --> 01:13:07,700
 New score.

1255
01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:08,700
 We're tied at 7.

1256
01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:12,180
 Florence Falcon football returns after this 30-second timeout.

1257
01:13:15,120 --> 01:13:16,720
 It's football time in Alabama.

1258
01:13:17,240 --> 01:13:19,360
 Our students are learning big American lessons.

1259
01:13:20,140 --> 01:13:26,760
 You can start with your God-given talents, and through practice, hard work, and sacrifice, you have the ability to become champions.

1260
01:13:27,580 --> 01:13:28,880
 This is Congressman Robert Adderholt.

1261
01:13:28,880 --> 01:13:36,120
 May God bless all of our students representing our high schools during this season, and may God bless the United States of America.

1262
01:13:36,120 --> 01:13:37,120
 I'm Robert Adderholt.

1263
01:13:37,120 --> 01:13:59,080
 Here at Austin High School, the Black Bears answer back to the Falcons touchdown drive, and it was impressive there, John McDaniel.

1264
01:13:59,080 --> 01:14:00,080
 Kevin, it was eight plays.

1265
01:14:00,080 --> 01:14:10,020
 Kevin, it was eight plays, 60 yards, three minutes and 42 seconds that came off the clock, and, well, all that drive was Aiden Davis.

1266
01:14:10,020 --> 01:14:13,860
 6'2", 220-pounder running back with some speed.

1267
01:14:14,660 --> 01:14:15,420
 He is special.

1268
01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:18,340
 It helps that he's got all that size up front to block.

1269
01:14:19,000 --> 01:14:20,140
 Delgado booted away.

1270
01:14:20,240 --> 01:14:21,820
 Looked like they were all sides, but no call.

1271
01:14:22,080 --> 01:14:23,160
 This one will be returnable.

1272
01:14:23,300 --> 01:14:24,360
 Mars has it at the one.

1273
01:14:24,740 --> 01:14:26,980
 Mars goes up to the left side looking for running rims.

1274
01:14:26,980 --> 01:14:29,400
 Split defender, but it's kicked down at the 16.

1275
01:14:30,540 --> 01:14:35,300
 Held on to the ball, though, and they'll bring up the Falcons at the 16-yard line first in 10.

1276
01:14:35,400 --> 01:14:40,700
 Don't forget, the coach's breakfast Saturday morning from the North Alabama Bone and Joint Clinic.

1277
01:14:41,120 --> 01:14:45,180
 As we talk to coaches from around the Shoals area about Friday night's games on Saturday morning.

1278
01:14:45,180 --> 01:14:49,220
 The coach's breakfast here on 93.9, the score from 8 a.m. to 9.30.

1279
01:14:50,180 --> 01:14:51,720
 5.47 to go in the first.

1280
01:14:51,840 --> 01:14:52,680
 Tied at 7.

1281
01:14:53,420 --> 01:14:59,180
 And Florence will have two wideouts wide left, including Elliott and also Gouldsby.

1282
01:14:59,240 --> 01:15:00,720
 Wide to the right is Mars.

1283
01:15:00,860 --> 01:15:03,160
 Two backs in the backfield for the quarterback, Mahan.

1284
01:15:04,060 --> 01:15:05,580
 Trying to get the Black Bears to jump.

1285
01:15:05,660 --> 01:15:06,180
 They did not.

1286
01:15:06,760 --> 01:15:08,020
 Plenty of time on the play clock.

1287
01:15:09,160 --> 01:15:11,960
 It's a four-man front now for this Black Bear team.

1288
01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:12,840
 A 4-4 look.

1289
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:16,400
 Gets the snap.

1290
01:15:16,480 --> 01:15:17,940
 Going to go Johnson up the middle.

1291
01:15:18,060 --> 01:15:18,920
 Found a running rim.

1292
01:15:19,200 --> 01:15:20,360
 Push forward across the 20.

1293
01:15:20,800 --> 01:15:22,160
 And he'll get about four right there.

1294
01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:24,780
 Second down, and we'll call it six to go, maybe even five.

1295
01:15:25,580 --> 01:15:27,660
 Jeffrey Jones right now on the sideline.

1296
01:15:27,940 --> 01:15:31,760
 It looks like it's just going to be which team's defense can get a stop.

1297
01:15:31,760 --> 01:15:33,600
 Yeah, that's exactly what it's going to be.

1298
01:15:34,180 --> 01:15:38,120
 You know, they kind of ran it down our throats a little bit, like we expected with number nine.

1299
01:15:38,840 --> 01:15:41,480
 Aiden, he's a good running back, just like last year.

1300
01:15:41,660 --> 01:15:47,360
 So, the defense is going to have to adjust after the first possession.

1301
01:15:48,160 --> 01:15:50,100
 But I think you're going to see a lot of run in this game.

1302
01:15:50,400 --> 01:15:53,420
 We and Boyle are now about 35 miles an hour in the second down play.

1303
01:15:53,820 --> 01:15:55,120
 This time, Johnson off the left side.

1304
01:15:55,220 --> 01:15:56,540
 Good block, but he couldn't get through.

1305
01:15:56,880 --> 01:15:57,440
 Spins forward.

1306
01:15:57,920 --> 01:15:59,240
 Only a game of about two.

1307
01:16:00,220 --> 01:16:01,520
 And bring up third and short.

1308
01:16:02,060 --> 01:16:03,840
 Third and about two to go.

1309
01:16:03,920 --> 01:16:04,980
 A long two at that.

1310
01:16:05,600 --> 01:16:08,020
 Brought down at the front there by the Black Bears.

1311
01:16:08,140 --> 01:16:12,220
 We can't call all the names of the Black Bears, mainly because their numbers are in silver.

1312
01:16:12,340 --> 01:16:16,520
 But it's hard to do because we don't have all the things we can put out usually to help us out.

1313
01:16:16,600 --> 01:16:22,000
 That was Zach Oaks, the nose guard, coming in on the tackle off the left side.

1314
01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:25,220
 So, Florence will have third and two and a half to go.

1315
01:16:25,740 --> 01:16:27,940
 4.35 to go here in the first, tied at seven.

1316
01:16:28,020 --> 01:16:29,920
 Under center now are the Falcons.

1317
01:16:30,060 --> 01:16:30,840
 They'll put blank.

1318
01:16:31,640 --> 01:16:33,260
 Going to the right along with Boyle.

1319
01:16:33,900 --> 01:16:35,220
 Going to go off the left side.

1320
01:16:35,380 --> 01:16:35,880
 Hand it off.

1321
01:16:35,980 --> 01:16:37,720
 Johnson scoots up in there, and he's not going to get it.

1322
01:16:38,380 --> 01:16:39,560
 Oh, he broke loose, did he?

1323
01:16:39,760 --> 01:16:40,620
 Didn't get it still.

1324
01:16:41,060 --> 01:16:42,640
 Got right to it almost.

1325
01:16:43,080 --> 01:16:49,420
 He's going to be about a half yard short to the 24, and immediately Kenny Morrison quickly sends out the punt.

1326
01:16:50,420 --> 01:16:52,360
 He'll short by about a couple yards, actually.

1327
01:16:52,800 --> 01:16:57,820
 So, Austin's defense shuts it down.

1328
01:16:57,920 --> 01:17:01,360
 And interesting, Mike, that touchdown drive was all to the right side.

1329
01:17:01,480 --> 01:17:03,360
 Those three plays were much to the left side.

1330
01:17:03,460 --> 01:17:04,540
 I wonder why the difference.

1331
01:17:06,040 --> 01:17:07,760
 Your guess is as good as mine, Kevin.

1332
01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:09,760
 Got to get a good snap.

1333
01:17:09,900 --> 01:17:10,400
 Got to get away.

1334
01:17:10,520 --> 01:17:13,200
 Ten on the line of scrimmage for Austin.

1335
01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:15,080
 High snap.

1336
01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:17,460
 Greenhawk gets it away, and that's a smart job.

1337
01:17:18,040 --> 01:17:21,860
 The kick will be short and taken at the 40-yard line there by Klotzbach.

1338
01:17:22,040 --> 01:17:27,800
 So, a short punt with the wind in the field position, and now you're just holding on for dear life here in the first quarter.

1339
01:17:27,940 --> 01:17:30,520
 Tied at seven, and the wind does play a factor there.

1340
01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:32,360
 Wind played a factor right away.

1341
01:17:32,620 --> 01:17:38,560
 You know, yes, you kick the line drive to do the best you can, but you're driving it directly into the wind as the wind's gusting.

1342
01:17:38,660 --> 01:17:42,660
 A very difficult situation, and we ain't getting the friendly roll, you know.

1343
01:17:42,720 --> 01:17:50,000
 I think, Kevin, that you have to just try to just play it even when you have the wind against you and play for the quarter that you've got it by your back.

1344
01:17:50,080 --> 01:17:50,980
 That's going to be the key.

1345
01:17:51,400 --> 01:17:53,140
 Neither team has put it in the air yet.

1346
01:17:53,280 --> 01:17:54,020
 Why should they know?

1347
01:17:54,860 --> 01:17:57,400
 Davis, the tailback, going to get the ball right up the middle.

1348
01:17:57,500 --> 01:18:01,500
 This time, trying to bounce outside, breaks a tackle to the 35, down to the 33.

1349
01:18:01,760 --> 01:18:02,900
 He is not just big.

1350
01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:04,300
 He's got a little shift in this about it.

1351
01:18:04,440 --> 01:18:06,840
 He had a little shimmy and a little shake there.

1352
01:18:06,920 --> 01:18:11,660
 He was definitely bouncing it to the outside, broke it down for a second, then kicked it back out.

1353
01:18:11,740 --> 01:18:14,160
 Really got the defense on their heels.

1354
01:18:14,360 --> 01:18:18,040
 Second down and three to go after the seven-yard gain at the 33.

1355
01:18:19,580 --> 01:18:24,180
 Tied at seven with 3.18 to go, but also trying to take their first lead if they can.

1356
01:18:24,680 --> 01:18:26,640
 Two to the left, one back in the backfield.

1357
01:18:26,780 --> 01:18:31,280
 It's Aiden Davis for Jarman going to the left side, cuts it back, and there's Martinez, but he couldn't get him.

1358
01:18:31,680 --> 01:18:37,820
 He couldn't get him forward, and a host of Falcons will bring him down around the place where he had the first down,

1359
01:18:37,860 --> 01:18:39,220
 and they still couldn't bring him down.

1360
01:18:40,160 --> 01:18:43,060
 And it'll be enough to move the chains at the 27-yard line.

1361
01:18:44,360 --> 01:18:50,280
 And that shows how elusive he is because Lawrence had a chance to put him down, but it takes two or three at one time.

1362
01:18:50,880 --> 01:18:53,040
 Yeah, it's definitely a gang tackle in season.

1363
01:18:53,220 --> 01:18:57,100
 You cannot take this guy down with just that initial hit for sure.

1364
01:18:57,840 --> 01:18:59,480
 First and 10 at the 27.

1365
01:19:00,240 --> 01:19:04,260
 Jarman has one wide receiver right, one to the left on this first and 10 play.

1366
01:19:05,880 --> 01:19:08,360
 Again, Davis off the right side trying to cut it up.

1367
01:19:08,440 --> 01:19:09,040
 This time looking.

1368
01:19:09,420 --> 01:19:13,000
 Lawrence has got him bottled up that time and holding down for a gain of about one.

1369
01:19:13,000 --> 01:19:16,460
 And that's the best play we've seen on defense against Davis right there.

1370
01:19:16,660 --> 01:19:18,220
 But they played their lanes, John.

1371
01:19:18,280 --> 01:19:18,960
 You talked about that.

1372
01:19:18,960 --> 01:19:20,020
 That is exactly right, Kevin.

1373
01:19:20,080 --> 01:19:22,200
 That's what I was going to say is they set the wall.

1374
01:19:22,600 --> 01:19:23,880
 Everybody was in a gap.

1375
01:19:24,280 --> 01:19:30,680
 They used the defender to kind of plug it, and they just bounced him and forced him to finally cut it up where everybody was.

1376
01:19:30,960 --> 01:19:36,100
 That's how you're going to have to play him because he is too good to just try to solo tackle all night.

1377
01:19:36,480 --> 01:19:37,580
 Second down and nine.

1378
01:19:38,240 --> 01:19:41,160
 Again, Davis is going to get it up the middle, trying to break it.

1379
01:19:41,240 --> 01:19:45,760
 Pretty good job of the Falcons right there to trip him up around the 23-yard line.

1380
01:19:46,460 --> 01:19:47,940
 Jeffrey Jones gave him about three.

1381
01:19:48,100 --> 01:19:50,740
 But that Falcon defense now is starting to hold a little tighter.

1382
01:19:51,920 --> 01:19:55,200
 Yeah, it looks like they're getting the edge on him a little bit.

1383
01:19:55,360 --> 01:19:57,360
 And, you know, it's kind of interesting.

1384
01:19:57,880 --> 01:20:01,040
 We've had two players that have been giving the ball.

1385
01:20:01,380 --> 01:20:02,400
 Dave Hawley had one play.

1386
01:20:02,480 --> 01:20:05,260
 Every single play they've ran, it's been a handoff to Aiden Davis.

1387
01:20:05,380 --> 01:20:09,260
 I think Davis is going to get it again on third and sixth even, probably four-down territory.

1388
01:20:11,140 --> 01:20:12,580
 Going to go right side with Davis.

1389
01:20:12,660 --> 01:20:13,880
 He's got a wall pushing forward.

1390
01:20:13,960 --> 01:20:17,700
 He got the first down, I think, across the 20-yard line, down to about the 17.

1391
01:20:17,860 --> 01:20:19,140
 It will be close to the mark.

1392
01:20:20,420 --> 01:20:22,640
 They're going to mark him about the 17-yard line.

1393
01:20:22,720 --> 01:20:24,040
 He may be about a half-yard short.

1394
01:20:24,140 --> 01:20:25,700
 J.J., you've got the best look at it.

1395
01:20:25,980 --> 01:20:26,880
 They're going to move the chains.

1396
01:20:28,280 --> 01:20:31,080
 First and 10 at the 17.

1397
01:20:31,080 --> 01:20:36,160
 And, Mike, you can see that wall of offensive line just push on the right side right there.

1398
01:20:36,560 --> 01:20:38,760
 Yeah, I mean, they're going behind their biggest fella.

1399
01:20:39,020 --> 01:20:40,740
 He's got to be 300 pounds.

1400
01:20:40,960 --> 01:20:45,400
 He's just a big old body on the right side, but he's got two other guys pushing alongside him.

1401
01:20:45,620 --> 01:20:45,960
 Look at there.

1402
01:20:46,040 --> 01:20:46,880
 They pulled him out.

1403
01:20:48,160 --> 01:20:49,420
 Davis is out of the game now.

1404
01:20:49,600 --> 01:20:50,460
 Is that number eight?

1405
01:20:50,620 --> 01:20:51,140
 Number eight.

1406
01:20:51,280 --> 01:20:51,900
 That will be Gibbs.

1407
01:20:52,020 --> 01:20:54,860
 It will be back on the first of 10 play.

1408
01:20:55,220 --> 01:20:57,460
 Gibbs right up the middle looking nowhere to go.

1409
01:20:57,460 --> 01:21:03,040
 He's brought down immediately by Florence's nose guard, Jaden White, bringing up second down and nine.

1410
01:21:04,300 --> 01:21:06,920
 I think Davis may have run out of gas a little bit, just needed a breather.

1411
01:21:07,880 --> 01:21:08,900
 Second down and nine.

1412
01:21:09,260 --> 01:21:10,580
 45 seconds on the clock.

1413
01:21:12,300 --> 01:21:13,980
 Jeremy Perkins playing the clock now.

1414
01:21:14,120 --> 01:21:15,840
 A 7-7 game, tied at seven.

1415
01:21:15,920 --> 01:21:18,280
 Both teams have had two possessions.

1416
01:21:18,540 --> 01:21:19,740
 Florence scored on the first one.

1417
01:21:19,880 --> 01:21:21,040
 Austin scored on their first one.

1418
01:21:21,640 --> 01:21:22,420
 Florence had to punt.

1419
01:21:22,500 --> 01:21:24,360
 Now Austin trying to answer on the short field.

1420
01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:27,640
 Jarman, the quarterback, wants to pass to the side.

1421
01:21:27,740 --> 01:21:28,540
 Complete drop.

1422
01:21:29,160 --> 01:21:30,240
 Sales couldn't bring it in.

1423
01:21:30,760 --> 01:21:32,380
 It would have been around the 10-yard line.

1424
01:21:32,460 --> 01:21:34,820
 He'd have been short of the first down, but it brings up third and nine.

1425
01:21:35,340 --> 01:21:36,480
 That was one of those situations.

1426
01:21:36,600 --> 01:21:38,660
 It looked like the footsteps got to him.

1427
01:21:38,660 --> 01:21:43,160
 He looked like he was preparing for the hit more than he was preparing for the catch there

1428
01:21:43,160 --> 01:21:45,180
 and, you know, was able to drop it.

1429
01:21:45,720 --> 01:21:47,500
 Good job by the Falcons to be in pursuit.

1430
01:21:48,300 --> 01:21:51,160
 Third down and nine down to go for the Black Bears.

1431
01:21:51,280 --> 01:21:52,680
 Here comes the Falcon crowd.

1432
01:21:53,320 --> 01:21:56,680
 We're in the stance right above them, and they're on their feet with cowbells ringing.

1433
01:22:00,740 --> 01:22:03,080
 Black Bears have to touch the seven-yard line.

1434
01:22:03,640 --> 01:22:04,400
 Back to pass.

1435
01:22:04,580 --> 01:22:05,920
 Looking to throw the screen to Davis.

1436
01:22:05,920 --> 01:22:08,240
 Caught it at the 20 to the 10.

1437
01:22:08,360 --> 01:22:09,060
 Down to the nine.

1438
01:22:09,140 --> 01:22:10,660
 He's going to be short of about two yards.

1439
01:22:12,020 --> 01:22:13,540
 Nice set play right there.

1440
01:22:14,360 --> 01:22:16,140
 Got an excellent spot, though, Kevin.

1441
01:22:16,220 --> 01:22:18,280
 He's marked him all the way down to about the seven.

1442
01:22:19,060 --> 01:22:20,600
 Should be short by about a yard.

1443
01:22:20,700 --> 01:22:25,980
 He'll be fourth and one when we come back for the second quarter, as I think they will take

1444
01:22:25,980 --> 01:22:28,300
 that one down to zeros, and we will.

1445
01:22:28,660 --> 01:22:29,940
 Tied at seven after one.

1446
01:22:30,060 --> 01:22:32,220
 Florence and Austin, we're back in one minute.

1447
01:22:33,220 --> 01:22:37,600
 At North Alabama Bone and Joint Clinic, our Shoals roots run deep.

1448

 James Moody with a score update.

1454
01:23:07,180 --> 01:23:09,580
 Muscle Shoals leading East Limestone 7-0.

1455
01:23:09,700 --> 01:23:11,160
 Wilson leads Rogers 7-0.

1456
01:23:11,640 --> 01:23:13,500
 Lexington leading Tanner 14-0.

1457
01:23:13,640 --> 01:23:15,180
 Haleyville leads Winfield 7-0.

1458
01:23:15,720 --> 01:23:17,220
 Patton leading Curry 7-0.

1459
01:23:17,340 --> 01:23:19,000
 Bell Green leads Waterloo 7-0.

1460
01:23:19,380 --> 01:23:21,140
 Addison leads Red Bay 7-6.

1461
01:23:21,360 --> 01:23:23,200
 Sparkman leading Grissom 14-0.

1462
01:23:27,100 --> 01:23:29,200
 Back here at Austin High School.

1463
01:23:29,740 --> 01:23:33,860
 Tied at seven, but the Black Bears have it in deep in Falcon territory.

1464
01:23:34,460 --> 01:23:35,940
 They have it at the 18-yard line.

1465
01:23:36,000 --> 01:23:39,680
 They need to get to the 17 as they'll go to the other end of the field from where we're seated.

1466
01:23:40,680 --> 01:23:46,520
 And Mike Albertson right now, this Falcon defense has really been tested more than we've been tested all year in a while

1467
01:23:46,520 --> 01:23:49,660
 with a team that has just said, we're going to bow up and run the ball at you.

1468
01:23:50,000 --> 01:23:53,440
 This is definitely a run-heavy team, and we knew that going in.

1469
01:23:53,940 --> 01:24:01,660
 This front seven, I would say in our estimation, is probably one of the better front sevens that we've ever had here at Florence.

1470
01:24:02,160 --> 01:24:03,840
 So it's strength on strength right now.

1471
01:24:04,120 --> 01:24:08,360
 And this is going to be one of those games that I feel like it's going to be close to the bitter end.

1472
01:24:08,980 --> 01:24:13,220
 Davis is the tailback in the, well, we call it the pistol formation.

1473
01:24:13,360 --> 01:24:16,140
 Now he'll move to the right of the quarterback, Jarman.

1474
01:24:17,480 --> 01:24:19,100
 Going to leave it with Davis right up the middle.

1475
01:24:19,100 --> 01:24:21,280
 He breaks the tackle and got the first down to the five.

1476
01:24:21,920 --> 01:24:24,820
 He'll move the chains, and it'll be first and goal at the four-yard line.

1477
01:24:24,980 --> 01:24:27,520
 And just no Falcons there to penetrate.

1478
01:24:28,420 --> 01:24:31,220
 And so they are really doing a good job with that offensive line.

1479
01:24:31,600 --> 01:24:33,580
 Donovan Jarman quickly to the line of scrimmage.

1480
01:24:33,660 --> 01:24:34,700
 It's Florence trying to substitute.

1481
01:24:35,940 --> 01:24:38,180
 Going to give it again to Davis, who bounced it in the middle.

1482
01:24:38,260 --> 01:24:41,880
 He's hit and brought down that time right at the four, coming in on the blitz.

1483
01:24:41,960 --> 01:24:44,300
 I believe that was Petty Poole who came in and made the play.

1484
01:24:44,360 --> 01:24:45,180
 Now, check that Ward.

1485
01:24:45,680 --> 01:24:48,740
 They had a guy that was wide open on the outside and a wide receiver.

1486
01:24:48,960 --> 01:24:54,100
 You knew that they were going to run the ball, but the Falcons were readjusting and didn't get there in time.

1487
01:24:54,240 --> 01:24:57,380
 If they were able to audible that, that would be an easy six.

1488
01:24:57,540 --> 01:25:01,380
 Second down and goal at the, we'll call it the four-yard line.

1489
01:25:02,660 --> 01:25:03,540
 Maybe the three now.

1490
01:25:03,620 --> 01:25:04,480
 I think they've got him at the three.

1491
01:25:04,580 --> 01:25:05,260
 We'll be close to it.

1492
01:25:07,260 --> 01:25:10,420
 Left side are going to leave it with Davis trying to get outside, trying to break to the edge.

1493
01:25:10,600 --> 01:25:11,760
 And he's hit down at the one.

1494
01:25:12,100 --> 01:25:12,980
 Flag on the play.

1495
01:25:13,060 --> 01:25:14,420
 That's going to be brought back for Holden.

1496
01:25:14,920 --> 01:25:17,720
 Falcon fans were screaming for it, and finally the white hat threw it.

1497
01:25:18,080 --> 01:25:24,280
 Well, they were trying to get around the edge, and our defender kept shooting towards the sideline.

1498
01:25:24,780 --> 01:25:27,500
 But you saw his jersey being pulled pretty easily.

1499
01:25:27,820 --> 01:25:30,040
 If they didn't call that, there should have been an investigation.

1500
01:25:30,980 --> 01:25:32,480
 11.09 to go in the half.

1501
01:25:32,620 --> 01:25:34,040
 Lawrence tied at seven with Austin.

1502
01:25:34,160 --> 01:25:39,680
 But the Holden call was going to gate the three-yard run to the one, and they'll bring it back to around the 14.

1503
01:25:41,900 --> 01:25:43,760
 Jeffrey Jones, I think they're going to mark it at the 13.

1504
01:25:43,880 --> 01:25:44,340
 Is that correct?

1505
01:25:46,720 --> 01:25:47,820
 Yes, that is correct.

1506
01:25:47,880 --> 01:25:49,120
 At the 13-yard line.

1507
01:25:49,220 --> 01:25:49,480
 Yes.

1508
01:25:49,580 --> 01:25:53,140
 Ball on the left hash going towards the field house here at Austin High School.

1509
01:25:53,520 --> 01:25:56,340
 Into the wind now are the Black Bears.

1510
01:25:56,480 --> 01:25:57,760
 They will have the wind in their face.

1511
01:25:59,640 --> 01:26:00,680
 So third down.

1512
01:26:01,760 --> 01:26:02,120
 Check it.

1513
01:26:02,180 --> 01:26:03,720
 Second down and goal at the 13.

1514
01:26:08,600 --> 01:26:12,720
 Falcons have three wide receivers out for the quarterback, Jarman.

1515
01:26:12,960 --> 01:26:14,320
 Jarman gets it to Davis.

1516
01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:15,440
 Got to the left side.

1517
01:26:15,520 --> 01:26:16,080
 Got space.

1518
01:26:16,180 --> 01:26:17,440
 And gets to the end zone touchdown.

1519
01:26:19,260 --> 01:26:21,820
 He found space and found the pylon.

1520
01:26:22,360 --> 01:26:24,140
 And Black Bears answer again.

1521
01:26:24,220 --> 01:26:28,740
 And the left side continues to dominate here in the first half against Florence.

1522
01:26:28,900 --> 01:26:31,040
 And Austin leads 13-7.

1523
01:26:31,580 --> 01:26:34,400
 And Florence facing adversity for the first time in a while, Mike.

1524
01:26:35,080 --> 01:26:42,300
 Yes, they were, you know, Florence hasn't really been behind in too many games, especially this early on.

1525
01:26:42,420 --> 01:26:43,100
 But the Black Bears.

1526
01:26:43,100 --> 01:26:46,720
 You know, the Black Bears have taken it to him now, two drives in a row.

1527
01:26:47,220 --> 01:26:50,260
 It was definitely a statement drive there for the Black Bears.

1528
01:26:50,380 --> 01:26:51,820
 Delgado to attempt the PAT.

1529
01:26:52,160 --> 01:26:53,800
 Snaps low, but he gets the kick up.

1530
01:26:54,080 --> 01:26:55,180
 And the kick is good.

1531
01:26:55,600 --> 01:26:56,300
 New score.

1532
01:26:56,500 --> 01:26:58,540
 Florence trails Austin now.

1533
01:26:58,900 --> 01:26:59,780
 14-7.

1534
01:26:59,780 --> 01:27:01,420
 Falcon football returns in 30.

1535
01:27:01,420 --> 01:27:04,080
 Game day's coming.

1536
01:27:04,080 --> 01:27:06,620
 And your tailgate crew is counting on you.

1537

1542
01:27:36,500 --> 01:27:40,280
 Back here at Austin High School, Kevin Johnson, the crew, glad to be with you.

1543
01:27:40,660 --> 01:27:42,000
 Florence trails 14-7.

1544
01:27:42,080 --> 01:27:43,700
 Let's go to our statistician, John McDaniel.

1545
01:27:44,400 --> 01:27:49,100
 Kevin, that was 11 plays, 40 yards total after the punt.

1546
01:27:49,300 --> 01:27:52,820
 Four minutes, 57 seconds, time of possession.

1547
01:27:53,100 --> 01:27:56,400
 Boy, not getting that first down, forcing the punt, and it gives the short field.

1548
01:27:56,560 --> 01:27:59,080
 And next thing you know, the Black Bears have it in good shape.

1549
01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:01,100
 Now, you've got to be careful fielding punts here.

1550
01:28:01,320 --> 01:28:03,600
 Delgado to punt it away or kick it away.

1551
01:28:04,820 --> 01:28:05,640
 Boots the kick.

1552
01:28:05,720 --> 01:28:10,760
 It's going to be a weird kick taken by, good job by Haddock, who fair catches it at the 31.

1553
01:28:10,860 --> 01:28:12,900
 That's a tough kick to catch in that wind, Mike.

1554
01:28:12,920 --> 01:28:13,620
 He did a good job.

1555
01:28:13,940 --> 01:28:15,280
 Yes, he definitely did.

1556
01:28:15,720 --> 01:28:22,280
 That kick had a little curvature to it as well, just by the way the guy kicked it.

1557
01:28:22,520 --> 01:28:24,380
 It hung up in the air for a second.

1558
01:28:24,520 --> 01:28:28,660
 He adjusted properly and just made sure that he secured the catch, took the knee right away.

1559
01:28:28,740 --> 01:28:32,380
 I mean, if I'm Florence in any more, hopefully you don't have to return too many more kicks.

1560
01:28:32,460 --> 01:28:35,980
 But if you're doing that on this end, bring those guys up a whole lot closer.

1561
01:28:36,400 --> 01:28:36,900
 Oh, absolutely.

1562
01:28:37,560 --> 01:28:41,480
 First and 10 for the Falcons at the 32-yard line.

1563
01:28:41,940 --> 01:28:45,500
 Three wide receivers for quarterback Mahan in shotgun formation with one tailback.

1564
01:28:45,860 --> 01:28:48,460
 That's Johnson in the backfield with him against the three-man front.

1565
01:28:49,160 --> 01:28:51,600
 Johnson going to get it right up the middle and skips forward.

1566
01:28:51,700 --> 01:28:52,240
 Stays on his feet.

1567
01:28:52,320 --> 01:28:52,940
 Fumble the ball.

1568
01:28:53,200 --> 01:28:54,060
 Ball on the ground.

1569
01:28:54,360 --> 01:28:55,020
 Fought for it.

1570
01:28:55,280 --> 01:28:57,120
 And I believe the Black Bears have it, and they do.

1571
01:28:57,820 --> 01:28:59,900
 They're recovered at the 42-yard line.

1572
01:29:00,240 --> 01:29:02,980
 A disaster for Florence as the ball goes down.

1573
01:29:03,120 --> 01:29:08,800
 And Camarion Rapporto recovers the fumble as Johnson was trying to elude a couple of defenders.

1574
01:29:09,740 --> 01:29:12,160
 Yeah, it's a heartbreaker right there.

1575
01:29:12,340 --> 01:29:16,080
 You know, the Falcons really haven't turned the ball over too much this season.

1576
01:29:16,220 --> 01:29:20,700
 Being able to face this adversity early on, we're going to see how this defense responds.

1577
01:29:23,260 --> 01:29:26,040
 So the Black Bears will have it first and 10.

1578
01:29:29,520 --> 01:29:34,580
 And they'll mark the ball at the 40, well, they still haven't marked it, 43-yard line.

1579
01:29:38,380 --> 01:29:40,860
 Irons and Lotz, the middle linebackers right now.

1580
01:29:41,600 --> 01:29:45,440
 Klotzbach on the outside along with Martinez.

1581
01:29:46,220 --> 01:29:47,260
 Three-man front for Florence.

1582
01:29:47,400 --> 01:29:49,100
 Davis up the middle trying to bounce it.

1583
01:29:49,180 --> 01:29:49,760
 Does again.

1584
01:29:50,020 --> 01:29:51,500
 Hit hard right at the 40-yard line.

1585
01:29:51,920 --> 01:29:54,460
 Great play right there by Des Brown who clipped him out.

1586
01:29:54,800 --> 01:29:55,600
 He only gained two.

1587
01:29:55,760 --> 01:29:57,820
 He could have kept running if it wouldn't have been for Des Brown there.

1588
01:29:58,180 --> 01:30:00,240
 Des Brown with a nice open field tackle there.

1589
01:30:00,340 --> 01:30:01,120
 It was one-on-one.

1590
01:30:01,680 --> 01:30:05,900
 He was able to make sure that he clipped Davis just enough to get him down,

1591
01:30:05,900 --> 01:30:08,800
 which a one-on-one situation with him is not easy to do.

1592
01:30:09,100 --> 01:30:10,220
 It's a great job by Des there.

1593
01:30:11,280 --> 01:30:14,180
 Sales will come wide to the right along with Jones.

1594
01:30:14,340 --> 01:30:14,960
 Wide to the left.

1595
01:30:15,440 --> 01:30:16,220
 Well, they won't have anyone.

1596
01:30:16,320 --> 01:30:17,620
 They'll just have the tight end on the left.

1597
01:30:18,880 --> 01:30:19,700
 Shotgun formation.

1598
01:30:19,840 --> 01:30:21,860
 Jarman going to give it to Davis off the right side.

1599
01:30:22,140 --> 01:30:23,680
 Good job by Florence stretching him out.

1600
01:30:23,740 --> 01:30:24,400
 He goes nowhere.

1601
01:30:24,560 --> 01:30:25,520
 And Irons brings him down.

1602
01:30:25,800 --> 01:30:26,340
 No game.

1603
01:30:26,440 --> 01:30:27,840
 May have even lost a yard or two.

1604
01:30:28,460 --> 01:30:30,300
 Matter of fact, he lost about three yards.

1605
01:30:30,380 --> 01:30:32,100
 All the way back to the original line of scrimmage.

1606
01:30:32,420 --> 01:30:33,600
 Brings up a third and ten.

1607
01:30:33,800 --> 01:30:38,600
 That was a great job by the Falcons to really respond on first and second down here

1608
01:30:38,600 --> 01:30:40,200
 after that turnover.

1609
01:30:40,600 --> 01:30:41,320
 That's big.

1610
01:30:41,460 --> 01:30:44,000
 Now this third down play is going to be huge.

1611
01:30:44,300 --> 01:30:46,220
 You know they ran the screen pass earlier.

1612
01:30:47,020 --> 01:30:48,420
 Draw a player screen pass here.

1613
01:30:48,480 --> 01:30:49,460
 I would not be surprised.

1614
01:30:50,080 --> 01:30:51,300
 Going into the win.

1615
01:30:51,860 --> 01:30:53,820
 I wouldn't expect him to throw it deep here.

1616
01:30:54,260 --> 01:30:55,520
 Play clock at 17.

1617
01:30:56,120 --> 01:30:57,560
 9.25 and counting.

1618
01:30:59,020 --> 01:31:00,420
 Austin leads it 14-7.

1619
01:31:00,560 --> 01:31:03,860
 And after the fumble recovery, you have it in Falcon territory, but they face third and

1620
01:31:03,860 --> 01:31:04,140
 ten.

1621
01:31:05,380 --> 01:31:06,400
 Eight on the play clock.

1622
01:31:07,160 --> 01:31:08,240
 Jarman, the quarterback shot.

1623
01:31:08,300 --> 01:31:08,740
 Good formation.

1624
01:31:08,900 --> 01:31:09,940
 That's three wide receivers left.

1625
01:31:10,000 --> 01:31:10,600
 And the ball is snapped.

1626
01:31:10,680 --> 01:31:11,340
 He didn't know it.

1627
01:31:11,580 --> 01:31:12,400
 And they had to fall on it.

1628
01:31:12,480 --> 01:31:13,540
 And Davis is going to pick it up.

1629
01:31:13,780 --> 01:31:15,040
 They've got to keep him in front of them.

1630
01:31:15,340 --> 01:31:16,020
 Davis in trouble.

1631
01:31:16,100 --> 01:31:17,160
 He's going to die out at the 48.

1632
01:31:18,160 --> 01:31:20,920
 So miscommunication will bring up fourth down.

1633
01:31:21,620 --> 01:31:23,500
 And the Black Bears will have to punt it away.

1634
01:31:25,680 --> 01:31:27,240
 Big break for Florence there.

1635
01:31:27,400 --> 01:31:29,300
 That was a big break for Florence right there.

1636
01:31:29,500 --> 01:31:34,060
 You know, the quarterback turned his head away to say something to the running back just

1637
01:31:34,060 --> 01:31:36,160
 to make sure that they were on the same page.

1638
01:31:36,160 --> 01:31:39,620
 And clearly the center wasn't on the same page because it hit off the quarterback's chest.

1639
01:31:39,840 --> 01:31:43,420
 And, you know, Davis tried to make something out of nothing but still lost two.

1640
01:31:45,320 --> 01:31:46,620
 Black Bears just now getting everybody to sit.

1641
01:31:46,640 --> 01:31:48,540
 They have one wide left, one wide right.

1642
01:31:49,020 --> 01:31:50,080
 Florence is a man short.

1643
01:31:50,200 --> 01:31:51,600
 Make sure they've got the right number out there.

1644
01:31:51,660 --> 01:31:52,100
 And they do.

1645
01:31:52,820 --> 01:31:53,480
 Good snap.

1646
01:31:53,640 --> 01:31:55,160
 Gets it up and punched it away.

1647
01:31:55,260 --> 01:31:56,380
 High and hanging kick.

1648
01:31:57,300 --> 01:31:58,440
 Goolsby says get away.

1649
01:31:58,520 --> 01:31:59,260
 Let it get away.

1650
01:31:59,340 --> 01:32:00,020
 And the ball will bounce.

1651
01:32:00,100 --> 01:32:01,100
 And it's a good bounce there.

1652
01:32:01,180 --> 01:32:01,960
 Inside to 20.

1653
01:32:02,120 --> 01:32:03,220
 All the way down to 17.

1654
01:32:03,220 --> 01:32:05,000
 And Delgado had a great kick right there.

1655
01:32:05,560 --> 01:32:06,120
 End of the win.

1656
01:32:06,200 --> 01:32:06,940
 That was pretty impressive.

1657
01:32:07,900 --> 01:32:09,260
 Yeah, it was impressive.

1658
01:32:09,500 --> 01:32:13,720
 However, you know, that ball died and hit the turf and then skipped forward.

1659
01:32:13,820 --> 01:32:15,780
 I think, you know, it was equal parts.

1660
01:32:15,960 --> 01:32:20,240
 It's one of those situations that if, honestly, on this side of the field,

1661
01:32:20,300 --> 01:32:21,840
 I don't return any kick whatsoever.

1662
01:32:22,120 --> 01:32:25,260
 I tell everybody to stay at the line of scrimmage because there's only too many.

1663
01:32:25,560 --> 01:32:26,780
 It's only going to be friendly fire.

1664
01:32:27,080 --> 01:32:29,120
 The blockers are going to blind up kicking that ball.

1665
01:32:29,600 --> 01:32:31,840
 Johnson will return at tailback.

1666
01:32:31,840 --> 01:32:32,700
 One tailback.

1667
01:32:33,220 --> 01:32:37,280
 To the left will be Goolsby and Elliott.

1668
01:32:37,540 --> 01:32:40,520
 Wide right will be green with the wind behind their back.

1669
01:32:41,320 --> 01:32:42,480
 First and ten play.

1670
01:32:45,100 --> 01:32:46,280
 Mahan's going to leave it with Johnson.

1671
01:32:46,360 --> 01:32:48,680
 No, before that, a whistle and somebody moved early.

1672
01:32:49,220 --> 01:32:50,260
 Offsides on the defense.

1673
01:32:50,920 --> 01:32:53,260
 So, five yards would go the other way would be big.

1674
01:32:54,140 --> 01:32:57,180
 Falcon says it's against the Orange and they're marking it that way.

1675
01:32:57,260 --> 01:33:00,100
 So, we'll take the five yards and bring up first and five.

1676
01:33:00,200 --> 01:33:01,660
 And Florence is going to pass the ball there.

1677
01:33:02,220 --> 01:33:07,540
 First down and five to go.

1678
01:33:07,540 --> 01:33:11,320
 Eight-sixteen to go in the half.

1679
01:33:11,480 --> 01:33:12,900
 Florence trails at 14-7.

1680
01:33:14,200 --> 01:33:16,040
 We knew it to be tough to come to Austin.

1681
01:33:16,800 --> 01:33:18,900
 7-0 Falcons getting a battle tonight.

1682
01:33:21,180 --> 01:33:22,480
 Mahan looks over the defense.

1683
01:33:22,720 --> 01:33:24,380
 Going to leave it with Johnson off the left side.

1684
01:33:24,460 --> 01:33:25,640
 Trying to split the defense.

1685
01:33:25,960 --> 01:33:27,260
 Gets across to the 25.

1686
01:33:27,720 --> 01:33:29,040
 Hit hard at the 26.

1687
01:33:29,980 --> 01:33:31,440
 And, again, a whistle on this one.

1688
01:33:31,460 --> 01:33:33,420
 Or, they're going to say a flag against Florence, maybe.

1689
01:33:33,740 --> 01:33:35,560
 Could be holding on the left side this time.

1690
01:33:36,160 --> 01:33:37,720
 Yeah, it's definitely in the area of holding.

1691
01:33:39,240 --> 01:33:40,360
 Johnson will check out.

1692
01:33:41,000 --> 01:33:41,760
 Williams will check in.

1693
01:33:41,820 --> 01:33:43,580
 And, the holding call will negate the run.

1694
01:33:44,520 --> 01:33:45,740
 So, you get five yards.

1695
01:33:45,800 --> 01:33:46,720
 You give ten back.

1696
01:33:47,920 --> 01:33:52,380
 From the 23, it will mark it back to about the 12-yard line.

1697
01:33:53,820 --> 01:33:55,440
 Well, depending on where he marked it from.

1698
01:34:00,340 --> 01:34:02,960
 And, these officials put it down at the 13.

1699
01:34:03,840 --> 01:34:08,720
 So, Florence will have it first down now in about 14 to go.

1700
01:34:09,240 --> 01:34:11,480
 Down by seven.

1701
01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:12,980
 14 to seven.

1702
01:34:13,100 --> 01:34:14,060
 Two wide outs right.

1703
01:34:14,620 --> 01:34:15,820
 Gouldsby and Elliott out there.

1704
01:34:15,920 --> 01:34:16,980
 Wide left is green.

1705
01:34:17,480 --> 01:34:18,640
 On the second out, 14 play.

1706
01:34:19,200 --> 01:34:21,420
 The tailback is Kayon Williams.

1707
01:34:23,900 --> 01:34:25,140
 Against a four-man front.

1708
01:34:26,620 --> 01:34:28,100
 In motion is Williams to the right.

1709
01:34:28,440 --> 01:34:29,920
 Looks to pass is Mahan.

1710
01:34:30,060 --> 01:34:30,680
 Has time.

1711
01:34:30,940 --> 01:34:31,480
 Across the middle.

1712
01:34:31,560 --> 01:34:31,960
 Complete.

1713
01:34:32,100 --> 01:34:33,520
 Got it throughout the 20-yard line.

1714
01:34:33,880 --> 01:34:35,140
 Nice throwing catch to Elliott.

1715
01:34:35,260 --> 01:34:35,880
 He catches it.

1716
01:34:36,180 --> 01:34:36,760
 Scoots forward.

1717
01:34:36,760 --> 01:34:38,960
 A game of about nine or ten right there.

1718
01:34:39,240 --> 01:34:41,620
 Does a great job there by Mahan.

1719
01:34:41,760 --> 01:34:44,660
 Pre-snap to be able to direct his guys.

1720
01:34:44,800 --> 01:34:46,040
 It looked like there was a little confusion.

1721
01:34:46,180 --> 01:34:47,300
 He straightened some things out.

1722
01:34:47,720 --> 01:34:50,660
 Elliott came across the middle there.

1723
01:34:51,140 --> 01:34:53,360
 And then Causton hit him beautifully in stride.

1724
01:34:53,500 --> 01:34:55,520
 Second down and seven for the Falcons.

1725
01:34:55,640 --> 01:34:57,120
 Going right to left as you listen to this.

1726
01:34:57,540 --> 01:35:00,600
 Ball at around the 20-yard line.

1727
01:35:02,760 --> 01:35:04,660
 Williams going to get it up the middle.

1728
01:35:04,780 --> 01:35:04,940
 Nope.

1729
01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:05,580
 Going to throw.

1730
01:35:05,720 --> 01:35:08,320
 Complete on the side as he faked me out in Mahan.

1731
01:35:08,320 --> 01:35:09,580
 And a catch is made.

1732
01:35:09,960 --> 01:35:11,920
 And it's going to be close enough to move the chains.

1733
01:35:12,740 --> 01:35:13,860
 And I think it will be.

1734
01:35:14,040 --> 01:35:15,560
 As Jackson Mayes will bring it in.

1735
01:35:15,880 --> 01:35:17,620
 And that will be enough for a Falcon first down.

1736
01:35:17,720 --> 01:35:20,620
 And a nice throw there from Mahan to Jackson Mayes.

1737
01:35:20,880 --> 01:35:24,980
 Jackson Mayes has become one of the better targets here for Mahan.

1738
01:35:25,380 --> 01:35:28,760
 It looked like Mayes took a helmet to the knee there.

1739
01:35:28,860 --> 01:35:29,760
 He's looking pretty.

1740
01:35:30,300 --> 01:35:31,180
 And he'll go down.

1741
01:35:31,420 --> 01:35:32,320
 They're going to check on him.

1742
01:35:32,400 --> 01:35:33,120
 They're going to check on him.

1743
01:35:33,200 --> 01:35:33,840
 We'll do the same.

1744
01:35:34,300 --> 01:35:36,280
 Florence, trails 14-7.

1745
01:35:36,400 --> 01:35:37,960
 Falcon football back in 30 seconds.

1746
01:35:40,620 --> 01:35:42,560
 Getting the kids to practice on time.

1747
01:35:43,000 --> 01:35:44,780
 Remembering if it's your day to bring snacks.

1748
01:35:45,280 --> 01:35:47,040
 Making it to the game with a clean jersey.

1749
01:35:47,040 --> 01:35:49,980
 Why are simple things sometimes so complicated?

1750
01:35:50,440 --> 01:35:53,200
 Thankfully, with auto owners, insurance doesn't have to be one of them.

1751
01:35:53,560 --> 01:35:56,480
 Auto Owners works with independent agents who answer when you call.

1752
01:35:56,780 --> 01:35:58,520
 So you can worry about more important things.

1753
01:35:58,900 --> 01:36:01,680
 Like whether your kid is going to run toward first or third base.

1754
01:36:02,220 --> 01:36:03,520
 That's simple human sense.

1755
01:36:03,920 --> 01:36:07,180
 In Florence, call Tyson Johnson, Luke Brown, Kirby Allen, Victoria Devaney,

1756
01:36:07,300 --> 01:36:08,420
 Brant Bishop, or Daniel Box

1757
01:36:08,420 --> 01:36:10,440
 with Hineker Johnson and Layton Insurance Agency.

1758
01:36:10,860 --> 01:36:13,240
 256-764-8682.

1759
01:36:16,280 --> 01:36:17,560
 Ties to a Florence football.

1760
01:36:17,740 --> 01:36:19,300
 They handed off to Williams up the middle.

1761
01:36:19,620 --> 01:36:22,140
 He's hit hard around the 30-yard line and pushed back

1762
01:36:22,140 --> 01:36:24,460
 after a gain of about four or five.

1763
01:36:24,920 --> 01:36:25,980
 They still blowing the whistle.

1764
01:36:26,100 --> 01:36:28,040
 And finally, after they let go of him there.

1765
01:36:30,540 --> 01:36:33,780
 And the Falcons will have to get someone to come in right now.

1766
01:36:34,080 --> 01:36:35,960
 Looks like Blank had an issue.

1767
01:36:36,300 --> 01:36:38,440
 He was tapping his helmet as he was coming off.

1768
01:36:38,860 --> 01:36:40,080
 So Blank will come out.

1769
01:36:41,280 --> 01:36:43,440
 And Florence will bring Kevontae Green in.

1770
01:36:44,140 --> 01:36:45,720
 We'll go through a three-wide receiver set.

1771
01:36:45,920 --> 01:36:50,260
 The Falcons have had a few nicks and injuries here in the first half already.

1772
01:36:50,480 --> 01:36:51,180
 An injured team.

1773
01:36:52,340 --> 01:36:53,220
 Shot good formation.

1774
01:36:53,540 --> 01:36:54,320
 Under six to go.

1775
01:36:54,760 --> 01:36:58,240
 Florence facing second down and six at the 32-yard line.

1776
01:36:59,120 --> 01:37:00,980
 Mahan going to give it to Williams.

1777
01:37:01,080 --> 01:37:02,000
 No, going to roll the pass.

1778
01:37:02,140 --> 01:37:02,380
 Looking.

1779
01:37:02,640 --> 01:37:03,260
 Hank can run it.

1780
01:37:03,320 --> 01:37:03,760
 Takes off.

1781
01:37:03,820 --> 01:37:04,300
 He's got it.

1782
01:37:04,440 --> 01:37:05,440
 To the 40-yard line.

1783
01:37:05,560 --> 01:37:08,200
 And he lowers his head and runs over a black bear.

1784
01:37:08,260 --> 01:37:09,400
 And that's enough to move the chain.

1785
01:37:09,740 --> 01:37:11,800
 That's something we haven't seen from Mahan so far.

1786
01:37:12,000 --> 01:37:14,240
 That's something that we have not seen thus far.

1787
01:37:14,240 --> 01:37:17,300
 And Costa did a great job with the play fake there.

1788
01:37:17,600 --> 01:37:20,280
 But being able to see that he had the green grass upfield.

1789
01:37:20,720 --> 01:37:24,400
 It just was very steadfast in his decision-making process

1790
01:37:24,400 --> 01:37:26,040
 to take it upfield and get the first down.

1791
01:37:26,140 --> 01:37:27,420
 First and 10 at the 41.

1792
01:37:28,460 --> 01:37:30,700
 Florence down by seven, though, here in the first half

1793
01:37:30,700 --> 01:37:32,480
 with 528 to go in the first half.

1794
01:37:32,840 --> 01:37:36,080
 For an underclassman quarterback, you like the one read.

1795
01:37:36,160 --> 01:37:37,520
 He's got one defender he's reading.

1796
01:37:37,680 --> 01:37:40,900
 Once he does, quick decision, pull ball, go upfield.

1797
01:37:41,140 --> 01:37:43,720
 Kayon Williams to the tailback with Mahan in shotgun formation.

1798
01:37:44,960 --> 01:37:47,260
 This time going to leave it with Williams off the right side.

1799
01:37:47,540 --> 01:37:49,020
 Boy, he's hit immediately with the line of scrimmage.

1800
01:37:49,060 --> 01:37:49,720
 He pushes forward.

1801
01:37:49,800 --> 01:37:50,580
 He gets two or three.

1802
01:37:51,000 --> 01:37:51,940
 Up to the 45.

1803
01:37:52,060 --> 01:37:52,820
 Give him a gain of four.

1804
01:37:52,900 --> 01:37:54,240
 But that was Kayon Williams right there.

1805
01:37:54,480 --> 01:37:55,300
 He pushed the pile.

1806
01:37:55,720 --> 01:37:59,220
 Yeah, Kayon Williams, he hit the gap.

1807
01:37:59,320 --> 01:38:00,580
 He was met with a linebacker.

1808
01:38:00,660 --> 01:38:01,740
 Spun off that a little bit.

1809
01:38:01,780 --> 01:38:02,700
 Kept his legs going.

1810
01:38:03,180 --> 01:38:05,460
 And was able to fall forward for about a day.

1811
01:38:05,460 --> 01:38:06,960
 It was closer to a five-yard game.

1812
01:38:07,280 --> 01:38:09,160
 Landon Baker, you know, the tackle on your right.

1813
01:38:09,220 --> 01:38:12,840
 They do mark him all the way up to the 45-yard line near the 46.

1814
01:38:15,800 --> 01:38:19,180
 Johnson will replace Williams on this second down play.

1815
01:38:19,360 --> 01:38:22,440
 Two wideouts left, one to the right against a four-man front.

1816
01:38:22,560 --> 01:38:25,640
 Everybody within eight yards of the line of scrimmage for Austin.

1817
01:38:26,260 --> 01:38:27,920
 Going to leave it with Johnson off the left side.

1818
01:38:28,000 --> 01:38:29,220
 Found a Brenner in 50-45.

1819
01:38:29,900 --> 01:38:32,660
 Closed line, lost the ball, fumbled again, recovered by Austin.

1820
01:38:33,200 --> 01:38:34,400
 They got him around the neck.

1821
01:38:34,460 --> 01:38:35,280
 He lost the ball.

1822
01:38:35,460 --> 01:38:38,480
 And it's recovered by the Black Bears at the 38-yard line.

1823
01:38:39,860 --> 01:38:42,180
 He was a step away from taking it to the house.

1824
01:38:42,460 --> 01:38:46,000
 But two fumbles now have cost the Falcons, and the Black Bears have it again.

1825
01:38:46,820 --> 01:38:48,700
 Yeah, he got hit up high.

1826
01:38:49,340 --> 01:38:54,580
 And I wasn't watching where the ball was at that time.

1827
01:38:54,700 --> 01:38:58,140
 But once the ball hit the turf, he was kind of spun around.

1828
01:38:58,740 --> 01:39:00,440
 He's very upset with himself.

1829
01:39:01,280 --> 01:39:03,020
 And I totally understand that.

1830
01:39:03,200 --> 01:39:06,040
 But this Falcon team is a team sport here.

1831
01:39:06,280 --> 01:39:08,040
 And this is a time for the defense to step up.

1832
01:39:08,180 --> 01:39:10,020
 J.C. Gulesman goes over and passes him on the head and says,

1833
01:39:10,080 --> 01:39:10,880
 Buddy, we know who you are.

1834
01:39:10,920 --> 01:39:11,300
 Let's go.

1835
01:39:11,820 --> 01:39:13,820
 Now can the Falcon defense hold here?

1836
01:39:14,180 --> 01:39:15,180
 4-27 to go.

1837
01:39:15,360 --> 01:39:18,560
 Both teams have three timeouts here in the first half still.

1838
01:39:19,280 --> 01:39:20,760
 Davis is the tailback behind Jarman.

1839
01:39:21,080 --> 01:39:23,360
 Going to go off the left side with Davis, trying to get outside.

1840
01:39:23,680 --> 01:39:24,160
 Falcons reach.

1841
01:39:24,260 --> 01:39:27,580
 Can't push him there but push him out of bounds around the 40-yard line.

1842
01:39:27,680 --> 01:39:29,020
 He's actually at the line of scrimmage.

1843
01:39:29,320 --> 01:39:30,260
 He won't get any gain.

1844
01:39:30,340 --> 01:39:31,680
 That's a pretty good job of stringing it out.

1845
01:39:31,760 --> 01:39:33,940
 John McDaniel, that's what you've got to do with this kid.

1846
01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:34,960
 You've just got to string him out.

1847
01:39:35,040 --> 01:39:36,520
 Don't let him get going north and south.

1848
01:39:36,920 --> 01:39:38,120
 You're 100%, Kevin.

1849
01:39:38,120 --> 01:39:41,020
 That's how you want to play the zone downhill.

1850
01:39:41,560 --> 01:39:42,740
 He's looking for a gap.

1851
01:39:43,100 --> 01:39:47,120
 You want to make a picket fence and have to keep bouncing further and further outside

1852
01:39:47,120 --> 01:39:49,840
 because that gives more time for defenders to get there.

1853
01:39:50,200 --> 01:39:53,060
 Bursky, by the way, back in the game with irons in the middle linebackers.

1854
01:39:55,700 --> 01:39:58,720
 Three wide outs for the quarterback Jarman on second down and 10.

1855
01:39:59,340 --> 01:40:00,140
 Looks to pass.

1856
01:40:00,420 --> 01:40:01,240
 Steps across the middle.

1857
01:40:01,320 --> 01:40:02,980
 Man's out there and he ended up through it incomplete.

1858
01:40:03,620 --> 01:40:06,760
 He was going for his tight end, but he underthrew him.

1859
01:40:07,220 --> 01:40:09,480
 Thank goodness because he had had enough for the first down.

1860
01:40:10,080 --> 01:40:12,260
 But it brings up third and called it 11 to go.

1861
01:40:12,880 --> 01:40:18,280
 Yeah, right away you saw the Falcon defense was in pursuit.

1862
01:40:18,960 --> 01:40:23,420
 And the quarterback definitely sped up his throw to try and get it to that tight end

1863
01:40:23,420 --> 01:40:24,660
 that was running the seam down the middle.

1864
01:40:25,440 --> 01:40:29,080
 You've got to think here on third and 11, they're thinking screens or draws.

1865
01:40:29,360 --> 01:40:31,080
 I would be getting the ball in Davis' hand.

1866
01:40:31,440 --> 01:40:33,600
 Here comes the Falcon crowd to their feet.

1867
01:40:35,960 --> 01:40:39,900
 Trying to employ this Falcon defense to get a stop with 4.20 to go in the first half.

1868
01:40:41,340 --> 01:40:43,780
 Trailing it by seven, Florence for the first time in a while.

1869
01:40:45,820 --> 01:40:46,640
 Driving the quarterback.

1870
01:40:46,780 --> 01:40:48,620
 Going to leave it with Davis off the right side.

1871
01:40:48,860 --> 01:40:49,960
 Trying to stretch him out there.

1872
01:40:50,160 --> 01:40:53,300
 And he breaks through the 45, first down to the 50 and steps out of bounds.

1873
01:40:54,500 --> 01:40:55,800
 Got 14 on the carry.

1874
01:40:55,820 --> 01:40:57,900
 But a flag on the play all the way back here.

1875
01:40:57,920 --> 01:40:58,460
 It is a hold.

1876
01:40:58,460 --> 01:40:59,120
 And it's coming back.

1877
01:41:00,200 --> 01:41:02,060
 Kenny Marson says, thank you very much.

1878
01:41:02,100 --> 01:41:02,940
 We'll point it that way.

1879
01:41:03,380 --> 01:41:05,660
 I thought it was a hold here, but I didn't see the flag.

1880
01:41:06,160 --> 01:41:10,740
 I'll be honest with you, the only official I've seen throw a flag on hold in has been the white hat.

1881
01:41:10,740 --> 01:41:11,440
 But we'll take it.

1882
01:41:12,260 --> 01:41:13,660
 Jeffrey Jones on the sideline.

1883
01:41:14,320 --> 01:41:15,380
 It's a lot of weather.

1884
01:41:15,880 --> 01:41:17,760
 It affects the player, but it affects the officials too.

1885
01:41:19,860 --> 01:41:21,800
 JJ may not be with me right now, so I'll stick with him.

1886
01:41:21,820 --> 01:41:22,220
 There he is.

1887
01:41:22,580 --> 01:41:22,900
 Sorry.

1888
01:41:22,900 --> 01:41:48,620
 I don't want to get a first down to ball number 28.

1889
01:41:49,060 --> 01:41:50,640
 If you're Florence, don't be too aggressive.

1890
01:41:50,780 --> 01:41:51,480
 Play smart here.

1891
01:41:51,900 --> 01:41:54,800
 Yeah, well, this is prime screen pass opportunity.

1892
01:41:55,160 --> 01:41:55,420
 John.

1893
01:41:58,400 --> 01:42:01,700
 They're going to snap it, give it to Davis up the middle, and he goes nowhere.

1894
01:42:02,060 --> 01:42:04,100
 The Falcons push it back, and that'll be where it's at.

1895
01:42:04,840 --> 01:42:06,620
 They were confused on that one, Kevin.

1896
01:42:06,620 --> 01:42:23,140
 And now punting into the wind.

1897
01:42:23,140 --> 01:42:24,860
 And if you're goose, but he'll stand at the 45.

1898
01:42:25,400 --> 01:42:26,120
 I'm with Mike.

1899
01:42:26,280 --> 01:42:28,440
 Don't catch it unless you're absolutely sure.

1900
01:42:28,660 --> 01:42:30,280
 And I wouldn't even block for him.

1901
01:42:30,520 --> 01:42:32,240
 I'll block at the line of scrimmage.

1902
01:42:32,380 --> 01:42:33,740
 Don't block anymore.

1903
01:42:34,520 --> 01:42:35,720
 Oh, I'd go after the punter.

1904
01:42:35,780 --> 01:42:36,880
 They've had trouble with snouts.

1905
01:42:36,900 --> 01:42:37,360
 I'm with Kevin.

1906
01:42:37,380 --> 01:42:38,640
 Go after the punter here.

1907
01:42:39,240 --> 01:42:41,020
 They've snapped it over his head a few times almost.

1908
01:42:41,500 --> 01:42:42,440
 Good snap this time.

1909
01:42:42,500 --> 01:42:44,520
 They do come after it, but he gets rid of it just barely.

1910
01:42:45,260 --> 01:42:48,220
 It'll be a line drive kick, and it's slow, and it bounces backwards,

1911
01:42:48,340 --> 01:42:49,460
 and it's going to be out midfield.

1912
01:42:49,880 --> 01:42:51,280
 Florence will have great field position.

1913
01:42:51,280 --> 01:42:54,980
 52 yards away with 257 to go in the half, and a chance to go down

1914
01:42:54,980 --> 01:42:55,960
 and maybe tie it up.

1915
01:42:56,680 --> 01:43:02,260
 Trailing 14 to 7 in what has obviously been a tough football game.

1916
01:43:02,500 --> 01:43:06,080
 And as Mike, as we've talked about, all the elements and everything about this

1917
01:43:06,080 --> 01:43:08,980
 played in the Austin's factor, but the factors are right here in it

1918
01:43:08,980 --> 01:43:10,100
 and got a chance to tie it up.

1919
01:43:10,440 --> 01:43:10,840
 Absolutely.

1920
01:43:11,240 --> 01:43:18,560
 You know, we can talk about not having school and being at a routine

1921
01:43:18,560 --> 01:43:20,420
 and all that other stuff, but, you know,

1922
01:43:20,420 --> 01:43:23,660
 all that stuff goes out the window once we're snapping the ball

1923
01:43:23,660 --> 01:43:24,360
 and we're playing.

1924
01:43:24,480 --> 01:43:27,160
 There's 257 left in this half, and we've got an opportunity

1925
01:43:27,160 --> 01:43:28,600
 to tie this up before we go.

1926
01:43:28,680 --> 01:43:29,640
 Under center, Mahan.

1927
01:43:30,140 --> 01:43:30,740
 Play action.

1928
01:43:30,860 --> 01:43:31,500
 Wants to throw.

1929
01:43:31,780 --> 01:43:32,700
 Goes deep for Goolsby.

1930
01:43:32,760 --> 01:43:34,600
 Down the left side of the hand-checking all the way.

1931
01:43:34,880 --> 01:43:35,600
 There's a flag.

1932
01:43:36,860 --> 01:43:38,100
 Goolsby was being held.

1933
01:43:41,360 --> 01:43:44,080
 And Coach Caden McGuire runs all the way down to the 20-yard line

1934
01:43:44,080 --> 01:43:45,140
 and says, thank you very much.

1935
01:43:45,220 --> 01:43:47,040
 Therefore, running, Goolsby had a step on him.

1936
01:43:47,080 --> 01:43:47,640
 He had to give it up.

1937
01:43:48,180 --> 01:43:51,580
 Austin has had 10, 11 guys all within 10 or 5 yards of the line

1938
01:43:51,580 --> 01:43:52,160
 of scrimmage almost.

1939
01:43:52,500 --> 01:43:54,160
 Yeah, you've got to be able to stretch it out,

1940
01:43:54,220 --> 01:43:55,680
 especially on this side of the field.

1941
01:43:55,820 --> 01:43:58,860
 I think it was a great play call to start off this drive

1942
01:43:58,860 --> 01:44:03,160
 to really make a hit after being able to get that possession back.

1943
01:44:03,240 --> 01:44:04,040
 Good play call there.

1944
01:44:04,120 --> 01:44:05,040
 Down at the 37.

1945
01:44:05,040 --> 01:44:06,040
 2.50 to go.

1946
01:44:06,220 --> 01:44:07,340
 Clock should be a factor.

1947
01:44:07,640 --> 01:44:12,300
 Kevin, I believe this is how Austin has played us in the past several games.

1948
01:44:12,400 --> 01:44:16,860
 They've played really, really eight, nine men within five yards.

1949
01:44:17,780 --> 01:44:19,880
 And they jump off sides and they give us five more.

1950
01:44:20,080 --> 01:44:21,380
 So that's 20 yards.

1951
01:44:26,140 --> 01:44:28,180
 Did anybody blow the whistle?

1952
01:44:29,180 --> 01:44:30,320
 Yeah, I think the official did.

1953
01:44:30,540 --> 01:44:32,980
 Well, the one official has the ball in his hands.

1954
01:44:33,060 --> 01:44:34,560
 I don't see a flag on the ground.

1955
01:44:34,860 --> 01:44:36,140
 He's ready to mark it off.

1956
01:44:36,360 --> 01:44:36,720
 Yeah, yeah.

1957
01:44:36,720 --> 01:44:37,580
 That's all that matters.

1958
01:44:38,880 --> 01:44:42,720
 Kenny Morrison right here with the official on the side said, hey, they jumped and hit our guy.

1959
01:44:42,920 --> 01:44:45,440
 He's like shaking his head and said, you've got to throw a flag on that.

1960
01:44:45,780 --> 01:44:48,160
 The back judge was the only one that saw that.

1961
01:44:48,160 --> 01:44:51,560
 Yeah, so first and five at the 32.

1962
01:44:52,500 --> 01:44:54,640
 Coach Morrison getting into conversation still.

1963
01:44:55,600 --> 01:44:56,500
 Two wideouts right.

1964
01:44:56,600 --> 01:44:57,500
 Goes to the left.

1965
01:44:58,460 --> 01:44:59,520
 Gets a seven-man front.

1966
01:44:59,940 --> 01:45:01,060
 Johnson off the left side.

1967
01:45:01,400 --> 01:45:02,520
 Oh, lost the ball again.

1968
01:45:02,640 --> 01:45:04,420
 And fumbled and recovered by the Black Bears.

1969
01:45:04,700 --> 01:45:07,840
 That time the exchange was not good and the Black Bears get it.

1970
01:45:08,480 --> 01:45:11,060
 Just not been as nice so far in the first half.

1971
01:45:11,600 --> 01:45:13,800
 And the Black Bears get it back at the 34.

1972
01:45:15,020 --> 01:45:16,740
 Disaster for Florence early on.

1973
01:45:18,160 --> 01:45:19,600
 Sometimes there's no words, Kevin.

1974
01:45:19,740 --> 01:45:21,720
 That was a tough one.

1975
01:45:22,060 --> 01:45:25,740
 You know, he's really carried us thus far this way.

1976
01:45:25,980 --> 01:45:31,040
 You know, when guys were out, just an unfortunate situation for him to put the ball on the turf again.

1977
01:45:31,920 --> 01:45:37,140
 So at the 34, the Black Bears will have it with 247 to go.

1978
01:45:38,360 --> 01:45:40,040
 And the Falcons are only down by seven.

1979
01:45:40,100 --> 01:45:41,500
 They've turned it over three times.

1980
01:45:43,940 --> 01:45:46,040
 In opposing team's territory also.

1981
01:45:46,960 --> 01:45:47,400
 Uncharacteristic.

1982
01:45:47,500 --> 01:45:51,420
 This time they have it at the 34-yard line through the Black Bears.

1983
01:45:52,780 --> 01:45:54,360
 They have 56 yards to go.

1984
01:45:55,440 --> 01:45:56,240
 66 to go.

1985
01:45:56,320 --> 01:45:57,620
 And Davis has it up the middle.

1986
01:45:58,060 --> 01:46:00,320
 Danson gets hit by Martinez, but he gets about four.

1987
01:46:00,440 --> 01:46:01,360
 But a flag on the play.

1988
01:46:01,660 --> 01:46:02,940
 And again, Holden called.

1989
01:46:05,220 --> 01:46:06,920
 It's been happening a good bit.

1990
01:46:07,100 --> 01:46:08,180
 They're on the left side.

1991
01:46:08,180 --> 01:46:14,440
 When Jaden White's pads are turned on him and he's pushed to the side.

1992
01:46:14,440 --> 01:46:19,740
 Yeah, you're not manhandling Jaden White like that unless there's some leverage issue.

1993
01:46:19,800 --> 01:46:20,800
 Can you blame him, though?

1994
01:46:21,160 --> 01:46:24,640
 Well, I certainly don't blame anybody, but a penalty's a penalty.

1995
01:46:24,640 --> 01:46:27,840
 The center for Austin has had a difficult time, to say the least.

1996
01:46:28,900 --> 01:46:33,660
 So, to push it back and set up a first and 10, it'll be first and 20.

1997
01:46:34,140 --> 01:46:36,980
 And you can see Jaden White's not 100%.

1998
01:46:36,980 --> 01:46:38,260
 He's definitely hobbled.

1999
01:46:39,240 --> 01:46:43,360
 He's been favoring one of his lower extremities.

2000
01:46:43,580 --> 01:46:45,500
 Kenny Morrison also keeping an eye on the play clock.

2001
01:46:45,580 --> 01:46:47,920
 I think that play clock has gone to the wrong time a few times.

2002
01:46:48,540 --> 01:46:49,920
 The clock will stay starting here.

2003
01:46:50,020 --> 01:46:51,520
 They're going to give it to Davis off the left side.

2004
01:46:51,780 --> 01:46:53,960
 Looking up the middle, and he's brought down at the 27.

2005
01:46:54,780 --> 01:46:56,220
 Good job of the Falcon defense.

2006
01:46:56,780 --> 01:46:57,820
 Burski in on the tackle.

2007
01:46:57,940 --> 01:47:00,920
 And timeout taken with 2.35 to go in the first half.

2008
01:47:00,920 --> 01:47:02,740
 Austin leads Florence 14-7.

2009
01:47:02,840 --> 01:47:03,700
 We're back in 30.

2010
01:47:05,020 --> 01:47:06,680
 Craving authentic Mexican flavor?

2011
01:47:07,180 --> 01:47:09,620
 Dive into delicious at Hugo's Mexican Restaurant,

2012
01:47:09,780 --> 01:47:12,740
 4160 Florence Boulevard at the entrance to Kendall Garden.

2013
01:47:14,300 --> 01:47:17,380
 Start off with fresh tortilla chips and Hugo's famous cheese dip.

2014
01:47:17,600 --> 01:47:20,040
 Then enjoy mouth-watering tacos, enchiladas, and, of course,

2015
01:47:20,120 --> 01:47:23,080
 Hugo's famous fajitas and more, all in a vibrant atmosphere.

2016
01:47:23,700 --> 01:47:26,480
 We're open Tuesday through Thursday and Sunday until 9 p.m.

2017
01:47:26,480 --> 01:47:28,620
 and until 9.30 on Friday and Saturday.

2018
01:47:29,180 --> 01:47:31,700
 Hugo's Mexican Restaurant, where every meal is a fiesta.

2019
01:47:31,960 --> 01:47:35,900
 See you soon at 4160 Florence Boulevard at the entrance to Kendall Gardens.

2020
01:47:39,760 --> 01:47:41,780
 2.35 to go in the half.

2021
01:47:42,360 --> 01:47:45,600
 Florence has fumbled it away three times in trail Austin 14-7

2022
01:47:45,600 --> 01:47:48,540
 with the Black Bears face second down and about 20 to go.

2023
01:47:48,660 --> 01:47:49,740
 Jeffrey Jones on the sideline.

2024
01:47:49,860 --> 01:47:52,080
 This running back, Davis, is everything and then some.

2025
01:47:52,760 --> 01:47:53,800
 Yeah, it's no surprise.

2026
01:47:54,020 --> 01:47:58,280
 You know, when we started doing film study on these guys earlier in the week,

2027
01:47:58,440 --> 01:48:00,360
 I had memories of last year.

2028
01:48:00,360 --> 01:48:02,320
 You know, he ran up and down the field on this last year.

2029
01:48:02,420 --> 01:48:05,420
 And, you know, we've kind of figured him out a little bit.

2030
01:48:05,540 --> 01:48:10,180
 But it's just seeing this kid up close, he's one of the strongest kids

2031
01:48:10,180 --> 01:48:12,100
 I've seen at running back this year.

2032
01:48:12,280 --> 01:48:15,440
 And that's coming from our running back room, which is very good.

2033
01:48:15,440 --> 01:48:18,860
 Second down, about 20 to go.

2034
01:48:19,300 --> 01:48:23,440
 Going to leave with Davis up the middle, bouncing, skipping, hit, brought down from behind.

2035
01:48:23,840 --> 01:48:25,380
 Burski pushing down around the 30.

2036
01:48:26,200 --> 01:48:27,860
 And again, timeout taken by Florence.

2037
01:48:27,980 --> 01:48:29,040
 But wait, is there a flag there?

2038
01:48:29,600 --> 01:48:30,520
 And no.

2039
01:48:30,580 --> 01:48:31,520
 No, just pushing around.

2040
01:48:31,600 --> 01:48:33,040
 They're trying to get something stirred up there.

2041
01:48:33,440 --> 01:48:36,220
 There was somebody threw something behind an official.

2042
01:48:36,420 --> 01:48:37,980
 It looked like a flag for a second.

2043
01:48:38,500 --> 01:48:42,940
 We'll keep it right here on this with 226 to go at the half.

2044
01:48:43,500 --> 01:48:48,960
 Hope to have the baseball coach, Hunter Morris, here to be with us as our guest.

2045
01:48:51,740 --> 01:48:52,820
 Looking forward to that.

2046
01:48:53,500 --> 01:48:59,900
 Plus, hear from golf coach Parker Driggers on a recorded interview we had earlier this week.

2047
01:49:01,060 --> 01:49:02,680
 Don't forget, Alabama football.

2048
01:49:02,880 --> 01:49:07,860
 The Crimson Tide in Tennessee will play tomorrow up in Knoxville, I believe that is.

2049
01:49:08,440 --> 01:49:09,880
 That is a 2.30 kickoff.

2050
01:49:09,960 --> 01:49:12,820
 11.30, you'll hear pregame starting here on 93.9.

2051
01:49:12,900 --> 01:49:14,100
 The score is the Crimson Tide.

2052
01:49:14,100 --> 01:49:19,040
 Puts on the white jerseys and takes on the guys in orange up in Knoxville.

2053
01:49:19,980 --> 01:49:21,420
 Should be a fun matchup.

2054
01:49:21,740 --> 01:49:24,900
 Mike, if you're Florence here, it's third and 14.

2055
01:49:25,100 --> 01:49:26,380
 First of all, you've got to get a stop.

2056
01:49:26,460 --> 01:49:28,320
 And second, you can't do any stupid penalties here.

2057
01:49:28,620 --> 01:49:28,940
 I don't know.

2058
01:49:29,080 --> 01:49:31,900
 I mean, it's got to be all discipline from here on out.

2059
01:49:32,220 --> 01:49:34,220
 You can't give a team the ball three.

2060
01:49:34,260 --> 01:49:39,120
 You can't give them three extra possessions and expect to continue to play undisciplined ball.

2061
01:49:39,220 --> 01:49:43,940
 So, it's time to buckle down and clean some things up.

2062
01:49:44,740 --> 01:49:46,520
 No hitches and goes.

2063
01:49:46,700 --> 01:49:48,400
 BBs, nothing gets behind you.

2064
01:49:48,600 --> 01:49:50,500
 You'd rather be late to the ball than early.

2065
01:49:51,500 --> 01:49:53,840
 14 yards to go for Austin from their own 30.

2066
01:49:53,920 --> 01:49:54,500
 Back to pass.

2067
01:49:54,800 --> 01:49:55,980
 Quarterback draw up the middle.

2068
01:49:56,280 --> 01:49:57,140
 Going back to the left.

2069
01:49:57,220 --> 01:49:58,720
 And he's hit and brought down at the 34.

2070
01:49:59,820 --> 01:50:02,940
 And Kenny Marshall will use his last timeout with 2.19 to go.

2071
01:50:03,520 --> 01:50:10,960
 And Florence will have a chance to possibly get the ball and go down and try to get some points maybe before here at the half, trailing 14 to 7.

2072
01:50:11,040 --> 01:50:12,060
 You're listening to Falcon Football.

2073
01:50:12,260 --> 01:50:12,940
 We're back in 30.

2074
01:50:16,140 --> 01:50:19,180
 At First Southern Bank, we always cheer for the home team.

2075
01:50:19,520 --> 01:50:21,100
 We are homegrown with deep roots.

2076
01:50:21,360 --> 01:50:22,720
 And we're invested in this community.

2077
01:50:23,100 --> 01:50:30,960
 With checking and savings accounts, mobile and online banking, and a mortgage department to help you with the home of your dreams, First Southern Bank is your neighborhood bank.

2078
01:50:31,440 --> 01:50:37,720
 Sometimes a local financial institution with deep roots and a commitment to the community can provide just the banking services you need.

2079
01:50:38,060 --> 01:50:41,180
 We always root for the home team because we are the home team.

2080
01:50:41,580 --> 01:50:42,380
 First Southern Bank.

2081
01:50:42,620 --> 01:50:43,360
 Equal housing lender.

2082
01:50:43,460 --> 01:50:44,200
 Member FDIC.

2083
01:50:49,780 --> 01:50:58,760
 Back here at Austin High School where the Falcons are in a battle, trailing 14 to 7 to Austin here with 2.19 to go in the half.

2084
01:50:58,880 --> 01:51:02,280
 The Black Bears are about to punt it away from their own 34-yard line.

2085
01:51:02,840 --> 01:51:04,620
 Delgado got away a good punt earlier.

2086
01:51:05,680 --> 01:51:07,440
 The Falcons have just got to take care of the football.

2087
01:51:07,700 --> 01:51:11,780
 Three turnovers from Florence in the first half have kept Austin in the lead.

2088
01:51:13,800 --> 01:51:15,740
 Falcons have nine on the line of scrimmage.

2089
01:51:16,940 --> 01:51:17,960
 A good snap.

2090
01:51:19,240 --> 01:51:20,660
 Almost got it and it hit the punter.

2091
01:51:21,620 --> 01:51:22,280
 Didn't get it.

2092
01:51:22,480 --> 01:51:23,080
 Hit the punter.

2093
01:51:23,600 --> 01:51:29,160
 Short punt with the 50, but it's going to be a first down for the Black Bears as we rough the punter there.

2094
01:51:29,760 --> 01:51:30,900
 We went for it and didn't get it.

2095
01:51:31,100 --> 01:51:39,560
 We sold out, gave away all our timeouts to try and get this possession back, and we just absolutely crushed the punter there.

2096
01:51:40,560 --> 01:51:43,660
 That's the type of stuff that will come back to bite you, especially on the road.

2097
01:51:44,140 --> 01:51:45,100
 And it was the right call.

2098
01:51:45,100 --> 01:51:48,340
 Kenny Morrison was begging for five yards, but it was definitely a roughing the punter.

2099
01:51:48,700 --> 01:51:51,540
 If they could have given him 20 yards, I would have said it was okay.

2100
01:51:52,340 --> 01:51:59,900
 So going for the block kick did not pay off there, and now you've got to play defense for 213 with no timeouts,

2101
01:52:00,320 --> 01:52:06,480
 and the Black Bears with a chance to score from midfield and a chance to have the ball back to start the third quarter.

2102
01:52:06,580 --> 01:52:09,580
 This is a huge, huge time for Florence right here.

2103
01:52:09,660 --> 01:52:10,740
 Boy, they need to get a stop.

2104
01:52:12,260 --> 01:52:14,560
 Oh, that was a big penalty all because of that.

2105
01:52:17,000 --> 01:52:22,420
 And I think you're going to get a dose of number nine for the next few plays with three timeouts for the Black Bears.

2106
01:52:24,140 --> 01:52:26,460
 This just has points written all over it.

2107
01:52:26,640 --> 01:52:28,340
 Charming the quarterback from midfield.

2108
01:52:28,880 --> 01:52:29,800
 Going to leave it with Davis.

2109
01:52:29,900 --> 01:52:31,380
 He's going to have the counter back to the left side.

2110
01:52:31,460 --> 01:52:32,000
 Has runner in.

2111
01:52:32,300 --> 01:52:33,440
 45 to the 40.

2112
01:52:33,700 --> 01:52:36,520
 Runs over a Falcon defender and gets down to the 36-yard line.

2113
01:52:37,740 --> 01:52:40,500
 The 6'2", 220 train got going forward.

2114
01:52:41,200 --> 01:52:43,140
 And the 14 yards will move the chains.

2115
01:52:43,900 --> 01:52:47,280
 With 207 to go, and the first time we've seen the counter, and it worked right there.

2116
01:52:49,280 --> 01:52:54,020
 His Falcon defense on their heels a little bit and have been on the field way too much in the first half.

2117
01:52:55,140 --> 01:52:56,700
 We talked about time of possession.

2118
01:52:56,820 --> 01:52:57,840
 It definitely favors Austin.

2119
01:52:58,720 --> 01:53:04,640
 This time to the left side, trying to cut, looking, nowhere to go, hit, broke a tackle, got back to the line of scrimmage.

2120
01:53:06,080 --> 01:53:09,700
 Florence stops in there for a gain of about two or three.

2121
01:53:11,360 --> 01:53:14,600
 And a timeout taken, I believe, by the Black Bears.

2122
01:53:14,600 --> 01:53:15,120
 Let's see.

2123
01:53:18,240 --> 01:53:20,640
 With the clock stopped, no, the clock didn't stop.

2124
01:53:20,800 --> 01:53:22,720
 There's a whole bunch of extra whistles for her.

2125
01:53:23,760 --> 01:53:27,140
 Austin's sideline is right on top of the official over there.

2126
01:53:28,020 --> 01:53:30,920
 We've been told to get back behind the white line ten times over here.

2127
01:53:31,120 --> 01:53:33,900
 But they'll run the ball left all day.

2128
01:53:33,960 --> 01:53:37,860
 Had to put in a new running back here as Davis got a little injured there, maybe shook up.

2129
01:53:38,960 --> 01:53:40,880
 We'll run it with the tailback this time up the middle.

2130
01:53:40,880 --> 01:53:43,080
 Found a running rim across the 35 to the 33.

2131
01:53:43,780 --> 01:53:45,720
 Gain of about three or four.

2132
01:53:45,980 --> 01:53:47,360
 Brings up third down and short.

2133
01:53:48,000 --> 01:53:48,880
 That was Gibbs.

2134
01:53:49,540 --> 01:53:55,620
 And now a whistle and a timeout taken by the Black Bears with 1.03 to go in the first half.

2135
01:53:56,020 --> 01:53:56,800
 Timeout on the field.

2136
01:53:56,940 --> 01:53:58,280
 Florence down 14-7.

2137
01:53:58,400 --> 01:53:59,240
 Black Bears driving.

2138
01:53:59,560 --> 01:54:00,460
 We're back in 30.

2139
01:54:03,560 --> 01:54:04,740
 Thanks for choosing Whataburger.

2140
01:54:04,940 --> 01:54:06,080
 What can I get started for you?

2141
01:54:06,560 --> 01:54:11,320
 At Whataburger, each meal is made to order, so you can always get exactly what you crave.

2142
01:54:11,660 --> 01:54:14,020
 If that's a Whataburger, what a meal, you got it.

2143
01:54:14,580 --> 01:54:23,100
 But if you're in the mood for something a little more you, like a Whataburger with grilled onions, crispy bacon, and creamy pepper sauce, go for it.

2144
01:54:23,480 --> 01:54:25,300
 March to the beat of your own drum.

2145
01:54:25,800 --> 01:54:28,560
 Bite into the beef of your own Whataburger creation.

2146
01:54:29,680 --> 01:54:31,720
 Whataburger, just like you like it.

2147
01:54:33,100 --> 01:54:40,700
 106 to go in the half.

2148
01:54:40,780 --> 01:54:42,740
 And not good news for undefeated Florence.

2149
01:54:42,880 --> 01:54:43,660
 7-0 in the season.

2150
01:54:43,780 --> 01:54:45,880
 They've run into a juggernaut of Austin tonight.

2151
01:54:46,220 --> 01:54:47,280
 Leading at 14-7.

2152
01:54:47,380 --> 01:54:48,940
 The Black Bears knocking on the door.

2153
01:54:49,580 --> 01:54:51,640
 Florence has helped them, though, with three turnovers.

2154
01:54:52,540 --> 01:54:53,420
 And not played well.

2155
01:54:53,500 --> 01:54:54,580
 The wind has played a factor.

2156
01:54:54,740 --> 01:54:55,320
 Short field.

2157
01:54:55,720 --> 01:54:57,500
 Gave Austin a 40-yard field to score.

2158
01:54:58,400 --> 01:55:01,140
 To take that one-touchdown lead, and they're knocking on the door.

2159
01:55:01,220 --> 01:55:02,700
 They are going against the wind now.

2160
01:55:04,540 --> 01:55:09,300
 I think Gibbs is still in the game at tailback now for Jarman.

2161
01:55:10,620 --> 01:55:11,460
 Third and three.

2162
01:55:12,520 --> 01:55:16,020
 Jarman going to lead with Gibbs off the right side, trying to get outside, using speed.

2163
01:55:16,320 --> 01:55:17,360
 Got to the 26th.

2164
01:55:17,360 --> 01:55:18,680
 It may have done enough for the first down.

2165
01:55:19,080 --> 01:55:20,240
 Jeffrey Jones is close.

2166
01:55:22,780 --> 01:55:23,680
 JJ is close.

2167
01:55:23,680 --> 01:55:24,360
 Yeah, he got it.

2168
01:55:26,880 --> 01:55:28,260
 Waiting to make a measurement there.

2169
01:55:28,480 --> 01:55:31,000
 Morrison says it is short, but I don't know.

2170
01:55:31,120 --> 01:55:33,120
 It's going to be fourth down, I think.

2171
01:55:33,180 --> 01:55:33,580
 It's going to be.

2172
01:55:33,800 --> 01:55:34,240
 They're going to have to.

2173
01:55:35,000 --> 01:55:37,620
 53 seconds left in the first half.

2174
01:55:41,980 --> 01:55:42,420
 Florence.

2175
01:55:42,860 --> 01:55:44,360
 We'll see a measurement happen here.

2176
01:55:45,020 --> 01:55:47,040
 The ball just at the 26-yard line.

2177
01:55:48,060 --> 01:55:52,620
 The wind blowing, gusting into the faces of the Black Bears as the light rain starts to fall.

2178
01:55:52,620 --> 01:55:58,160
 Again, PA announcer said it's short by about four inches.

2179
01:55:58,260 --> 01:56:00,380
 He has better connection than we do.

2180
01:56:06,680 --> 01:56:10,420
 Davis' orange sneakers that you can see standing out are back in that huddle.

2181
01:56:10,520 --> 01:56:11,900
 I guarantee you, he's back in the game.

2182
01:56:11,980 --> 01:56:14,220
 My guess is we're going to see Davis right here.

2183
01:56:16,480 --> 01:56:17,340
 Boy, if you're Florence.

2184
01:56:17,780 --> 01:56:19,420
 John, would you go under a run blitz here?

2185
01:56:19,500 --> 01:56:22,860
 Maybe try to just come in and try to shake things up?

2186
01:56:22,860 --> 01:56:27,700
 I would definitely bring in five or six defensive linemen to play heavy.

2187
01:56:28,380 --> 01:56:34,140
 Maybe even a bare front where everybody's covered and then bring your extra linebackers in.

2188
01:56:35,140 --> 01:56:36,280
 They're going to go heavy.

2189
01:56:36,440 --> 01:56:37,900
 Well, they've got two wide receivers.

2190
01:56:38,780 --> 01:56:43,440
 They're going to go heavy with Davis running quarterback and Gibbs now running tailback.

2191
01:56:43,580 --> 01:56:46,100
 So they're really heavy with the wind brisky.

2192
01:56:46,820 --> 01:56:47,780
 Davis there quarterback.

2193
01:56:48,100 --> 01:56:50,300
 I think he'll run up and run a quarterback sneak here.

2194
01:56:50,840 --> 01:56:51,680
 Let's see what they do.

2195
01:56:52,620 --> 01:57:11,080
 That was a benefit to a terrible call, in my opinion, on Austin.

2196
01:57:11,160 --> 01:57:16,340
 A guy that's not used to taking snaps back there on a fourth down play, you don't give him the ball.

2197
01:57:16,420 --> 01:57:19,600
 I never liked shotgun for four inches.

2198
01:57:19,600 --> 01:57:23,100
 And he's not your quarterback that takes that snap.

2199
01:57:23,280 --> 01:57:26,640
 It's not a natural thing for a guy that doesn't have those reps.

2200
01:57:27,020 --> 01:57:32,500
 With no timeouts, Florence will come out and go four wide, empty set, five wide, empty set.

2201
01:57:32,740 --> 01:57:34,540
 Surprised they're doing that with the wind, but they are.

2202
01:57:35,420 --> 01:57:36,200
 May hand the quarterback.

2203
01:57:36,420 --> 01:57:37,460
 If you're going to throw it, throw it deep.

2204
01:57:37,880 --> 01:57:38,500
 Straight drop.

2205
01:57:47,500 --> 01:57:53,260
 That'll be a nut to move the chase again.

2206
01:57:53,680 --> 01:57:55,360
 That was a great, heavy job by Costin.

2207
01:57:55,480 --> 01:57:56,600
 Haddock was wide open.

2208
01:57:56,700 --> 01:57:59,720
 He just wanted to get him the ball there, hit him right in the numbers.

2209
01:57:59,880 --> 01:58:00,600
 Haddock did the rest.

2210
01:58:00,720 --> 01:58:03,060
 Empty set again with 23 seconds to go.

2211
01:58:04,000 --> 01:58:05,460
 Watch for Jackson Mays here.

2212
01:58:05,920 --> 01:58:06,440
 Straight drop.

2213
01:58:06,500 --> 01:58:06,940
 Looks right.

2214
01:58:07,040 --> 01:58:07,720
 Throws it across the middle.

2215
01:58:07,840 --> 01:58:08,760
 Complete at the five.

2216
01:58:09,040 --> 01:58:10,420
 Not down there at the five-yard line.

2217
01:58:10,500 --> 01:58:11,220
 Got to hurry up.

2218
01:58:11,560 --> 01:58:13,140
 Got to come up there as they throw him down.

2219
01:58:13,620 --> 01:58:14,540
 Ball will be at the five.

2220
01:58:14,640 --> 01:58:15,160
 Got to hurry.

2221
01:58:15,300 --> 01:58:16,320
 Can't argue right here.

2222
01:58:16,920 --> 01:58:17,680
 Got to hurry up.

2223
01:58:18,180 --> 01:58:18,800
 That's a problem.

2224
01:58:19,060 --> 01:58:19,600
 Ten yard.

2225
01:58:19,800 --> 01:58:20,520
 Ten on the clock.

2226
01:58:21,080 --> 01:58:21,860
 Now nine.

2227
01:58:22,520 --> 01:58:22,940
 Now eight.

2228
01:58:23,060 --> 01:58:24,900
 Now we've got a flag on the play, Kevin.

2229
01:58:24,980 --> 01:58:26,800
 Flag on the play with 8.5.

2230
01:58:27,720 --> 01:58:28,960
 And let's see what it's for.

2231
01:58:30,660 --> 01:58:33,920
 Should be plenty on that one.

2232
01:58:34,180 --> 01:58:35,020
 8.5.

2233
01:58:35,260 --> 01:58:36,160
 You've got to be ready.

2234
01:58:36,260 --> 01:58:39,500
 No matter what, when the whistle blows, you're going to have to get ready to snap it.

2235
01:58:39,920 --> 01:58:42,180
 And if you're Florence, you're going to have to throw it to the end zone, no matter if it's

2236
01:58:42,180 --> 01:58:46,260
 against Florence or if it's against Austin.

2237
01:58:47,080 --> 01:58:50,540
 The flag is out of the seven-yard line, and it looks like it's going to be marched against

2238
01:58:50,540 --> 01:58:50,920
 Florence.

2239
01:58:53,920 --> 01:58:54,600
 Dead ball.

2240
01:58:54,720 --> 01:58:56,540
 That's sportsman-like conduct against Florence.

2241
01:58:57,260 --> 01:59:01,360
 What it was, they were trying to take the ball away from the wide receiver.

2242
01:59:01,880 --> 01:59:06,500
 He was trying to get the ball back to the official, and he threw it hard to the official, and the

2243
01:59:06,500 --> 01:59:07,660
 referee threw a flag on him.

2244
01:59:07,660 --> 01:59:10,940
 Well, there was more to that play.

2245
01:59:11,500 --> 01:59:15,960
 The wide receiver that caught it was also tossed to the ground, and he jumped up and he

2246
01:59:15,960 --> 01:59:19,180
 yelled at the official because that was a penalty after the play.

2247
01:59:19,460 --> 01:59:24,640
 At the 22-yard line, Florence will have to snap it as soon as they blow the whistle.

2248
01:59:24,740 --> 01:59:27,600
 They've got to throw it to the end zone here, or to the sideline of one.

2249
01:59:27,660 --> 01:59:29,560
 You can't get caught inbounds with no timeouts.

2250
01:59:30,360 --> 01:59:31,560
 Mahan's got to be smart with that.

2251
01:59:35,560 --> 01:59:38,100
 Now, officials are still gathering to talk.

2252
01:59:39,100 --> 01:59:42,500
 It says third down for Florence.

2253
01:59:43,120 --> 01:59:46,620
 Well, it was after the play, so that does make sense.

2254
01:59:47,660 --> 01:59:50,660
 Should be second down, and they'll move it back to second down, I believe.

2255
01:59:51,660 --> 01:59:54,180
 With 8.5 on the clock, no timeouts.

2256
01:59:55,140 --> 01:59:58,100
 You've got to throw a Hail Mary here and see if you can get something in the end zone.

2257
02:00:00,520 --> 02:00:01,220
 Blitz coming.

2258
02:00:01,300 --> 02:00:02,020
 Got to pick him up.

2259
02:00:02,120 --> 02:00:02,620
 Good block.

2260
02:00:03,040 --> 02:00:04,740
 Mahan throws it to the end zone.

2261
02:00:04,740 --> 02:00:05,600
 Has a man out there.

2262
02:00:05,780 --> 02:00:06,760
 Touchdown.

2263
02:00:07,120 --> 02:00:08,420
 Gulesby brings it in.

2264
02:00:08,660 --> 02:00:10,140
 That's a clock hit zero.

2265
02:00:10,280 --> 02:00:11,280
 What a...

2266
02:00:11,280 --> 02:00:31,900
 In celebration, he spiked the ball, and of course, it's always the second person.

2267
02:00:32,340 --> 02:00:34,800
 We now are being assessed a personal foul penalty.

2268
02:00:35,200 --> 02:00:36,720
 That could be a 15-yarder.

2269
02:00:36,780 --> 02:00:39,160
 That would make this extra point a lot more hard, more difficult.

2270
02:00:39,160 --> 02:00:41,540
 Let's see what the call is.

2271
02:00:43,700 --> 02:00:48,380
 Goalsby on the reception, but it is going against Florence.

2272
02:00:49,000 --> 02:00:53,160
 This is the type stuff, though, that you're always going to get whistled on the road.

2273
02:00:53,520 --> 02:00:55,880
 You know, and being able to keep your head cool.

2274
02:00:56,100 --> 02:00:57,620
 We talked about this pregame.

2275
02:00:57,880 --> 02:01:01,640
 This is one of those situations where, you know, this one's going to hurt a little bit.

2276
02:01:01,780 --> 02:01:05,600
 30-yard extra point attempt coming for Mahan.

2277
02:01:05,600 --> 02:01:13,220
 Or excuse me, for Greenhall as Mahan holds to try to tie it up here at the half.

2278
02:01:13,340 --> 02:01:14,360
 Down 14-13.

2279
02:01:14,600 --> 02:01:16,560
 But, boy, what a battle back there.

2280
02:01:16,640 --> 02:01:18,840
 And what a job of Mahan to lead the team down.

2281
02:01:18,920 --> 02:01:21,260
 And Goalsby with great catches on both of those plays.

2282
02:01:21,320 --> 02:01:25,160
 Mahan and Goalsby carried the Florence Falcons on this drive.

2283
02:01:25,660 --> 02:01:27,140
 Just great plays all around.

2284
02:01:27,980 --> 02:01:29,600
 They're going to mark it back at the 18.

2285
02:01:30,380 --> 02:01:34,160
 So, it will be now a 35-yard extra point to tie it up.

2286
02:01:34,820 --> 02:01:35,580
 You know what, guys?

2287
02:01:36,100 --> 02:01:37,720
 We don't have a speedster on the end.

2288
02:01:37,860 --> 02:01:39,600
 It would be a great place to fake one right here.

2289
02:01:40,960 --> 02:01:42,580
 And timeout being taken, maybe?

2290
02:01:42,700 --> 02:01:43,140
 Let's see.

2291
02:01:44,220 --> 02:01:45,220
 What are we doing?

2292
02:01:46,380 --> 02:01:49,540
 Seven-man crew now comes up and says something else.

2293
02:01:49,600 --> 02:01:50,600
 I'm not sure what it is.

2294
02:01:52,700 --> 02:01:54,360
 They're going to mark it back up.

2295
02:01:55,580 --> 02:01:57,160
 They're going to assess it on the kick.

2296
02:01:57,780 --> 02:01:58,460
 Next half.

2297
02:02:03,420 --> 02:02:05,720
 So, the touchdown counts.

2298
02:02:06,620 --> 02:02:08,140
 And now they're going to put it back.

2299
02:02:08,220 --> 02:02:09,520
 And maybe they're going to assess the second half.

2300
02:02:09,740 --> 02:02:11,460
 The White Hat's over here with Kenny Marson.

2301
02:02:11,520 --> 02:02:12,360
 We're having a discussion.

2302
02:02:12,900 --> 02:02:14,140
 But I think you may be right, Mike.

2303
02:02:14,480 --> 02:02:15,940
 They're definitely going to do that.

2304
02:02:16,140 --> 02:02:21,580
 And I wonder if the coach, knowing how critical field position is.

2305
02:02:21,580 --> 02:02:23,720
 So, the coach has options.

2306
02:02:23,880 --> 02:02:27,080
 He can assess it on the extra point or the field goal.

2307
02:02:27,220 --> 02:02:28,740
 I mean, or after halftime.

2308
02:02:28,920 --> 02:02:29,100
 Okay.

2309
02:02:29,460 --> 02:02:31,440
 First, he said field goal, so we backed him up.

2310
02:02:31,540 --> 02:02:32,940
 Then he said he wanted it after halftime.

2311
02:02:33,020 --> 02:02:34,220
 So, now we've got to pull him back up.

2312
02:02:34,360 --> 02:02:37,340
 Jeffrey Jones getting that from the official underneath the goalpost.

2313
02:02:37,520 --> 02:02:38,780
 We can't snap it yet,

2314
02:02:38,800 --> 02:02:41,480
 because the White Hat's still over here with the official, but Kenny Marson.

2315
02:02:42,260 --> 02:02:43,020
 Did y'all hear that?

2316
02:02:43,200 --> 02:02:43,760
 Yes, we did.

2317
02:02:43,960 --> 02:02:44,740
 Great job, JJ.

2318
02:02:45,080 --> 02:02:47,140
 I think Kenny Marson disagrees, though.

2319
02:02:47,440 --> 02:02:49,780
 So, if, but he already called it.

2320
02:02:49,840 --> 02:02:51,900
 It's like saying on the coin toss.

2321
02:02:52,320 --> 02:02:52,520
 No?

2322
02:02:53,260 --> 02:02:54,400
 So, here's the extra point.

2323
02:02:54,500 --> 02:02:56,120
 It's going to be a 20-yard extra point.

2324
02:02:56,220 --> 02:02:57,240
 We'll wrap it all up.

2325
02:02:57,880 --> 02:02:58,480
 But here we go.

2326
02:02:58,540 --> 02:02:59,720
 Got to make the extra point here.

2327
02:03:00,140 --> 02:03:00,620
 Good snap.

2328
02:03:00,720 --> 02:03:01,120
 Good hold.

2329
02:03:01,240 --> 02:03:02,520
 Extra point on the way.

2330
02:03:03,120 --> 02:03:03,520
 Oh!

2331
02:03:04,880 --> 02:03:05,620
 It's good.

2332
02:03:05,620 --> 02:03:05,660
 It's good.

2333
02:03:05,660 --> 02:03:05,660
 It's good.

2334
02:03:05,660 --> 02:03:05,780
 It's good.

2335
02:03:05,780 --> 02:03:06,700
 Just barely.

2336
02:03:07,180 --> 02:03:08,660
 Hooked it into the left, up, right.

2337
02:03:09,080 --> 02:03:11,440
 And Florence has tied it up at 14 at the half.

2338
02:03:11,660 --> 02:03:14,400
 And listen to the Falcon crowd on their feet.

2339
02:03:15,040 --> 02:03:17,080
 Brothers picking up brothers for Florence.

2340
02:03:17,540 --> 02:03:23,240
 And Mahan getting a lot of claps on the back of the helmet there from his teammates there.

2341
02:03:23,440 --> 02:03:27,460
 As Florence ties it up on the last play of the half, 14-14.

2342
02:03:27,700 --> 02:03:29,160
 You're listening to Florence Falcon football.

2343
02:03:29,580 --> 02:03:31,000
 We're back in two minutes.

2344
02:03:31,960 --> 02:03:32,440
 Hi!

2345
02:03:32,660 --> 02:03:35,540
 I'm Dr. Brady Citizen with Treehouse Children's Dentistry.

2346
02:03:35,540 --> 02:03:40,980
 Our teens in Tuscumbia, Killen, and Madison are so excited to welcome you and your family to our treehouse.

2347
02:03:41,140 --> 02:03:44,160
 We know that choosing a dental home can be a stressful experience.

2348
02:03:44,480 --> 02:03:49,700
 That's why at Treehouse Children's Dentistry, we've created an environment that kids and parents love.

2349
02:03:49,900 --> 02:03:55,780
 Our team is experienced in caring for every child, from infants to teenagers to children with special needs.

2350
02:03:56,040 --> 02:04:01,020
 Call one of our three locations today or visit our website at treehousedentist.com.

2351
02:04:01,020 --> 02:04:06,960
 We're so excited to see you soon at Treehouse Children's Dentistry, a branch of Singing River Dentistry.

2352
02:04:07,820 --> 02:04:10,320
 Hello, this is Kevin Arnold with Village Discount Drugs.

2353
02:04:10,400 --> 02:04:12,360
 We've been in the Shoals since 1979.

2354
02:04:12,740 --> 02:04:13,440
 We live here.

2355
02:04:13,640 --> 02:04:14,580
 We go to school here.

2356
02:04:14,680 --> 02:04:19,000
 Do you want to do business with someone local or a company from Rhode Island, Illinois, or Arkansas?

2357
02:04:19,220 --> 02:04:21,840
 The large chains just don't reinvest in our community.

2358
02:04:21,980 --> 02:04:24,140
 The large chains don't sponsor little league teams.

2359
02:04:24,240 --> 02:04:26,360
 And they certainly don't sponsor Falcon football.

2360
02:04:26,360 --> 02:04:29,840
 And don't just buy from Village Drugs, but support all our local businesses.

2361
02:04:30,080 --> 02:04:34,940
 Let these local businesses give you the service you deserve while keeping your local economy strong.

2362
02:04:35,120 --> 02:04:40,400
 So make the switch to Village Drugs, a local pharmacy, where we are the Shoals' problem solvers and people pleasers.

2363
02:04:40,740 --> 02:04:42,980
 The voice of the Florence High School Falcons.

2364
02:04:43,760 --> 02:04:45,120
 W-Y-T-K-F-M.

2365
02:04:45,620 --> 02:04:49,580
 Wintersville, Athens, Decatur, the Shoals, 93.9.

2366
02:04:49,800 --> 02:04:50,780

 You won't be shocked by their reputation.

2373
02:05:28,120 --> 02:05:32,880
 Carbine Construction is honored to be a part of building projects with the Florence City School System.

2374
02:05:33,440 --> 02:05:37,600
 We're also glad to cheer on the Falcons as they celebrate milestone achievements as well.

2375
02:05:37,600 --> 02:05:46,660
 Good luck to head coach Kenny Morrison and the Florence Falcons football team on building a special season to remember as Carbine Construction wishes you the very best this season.

2376
02:05:47,220 --> 02:05:57,080
 Remember, at Carbine Construction, we build trust, we build relationships, and like the Florence Falcons football team, at Carbine Construction, we continue to build.

 In Tennessee, Summertown leading Richland 28-7.

2401
02:06:55,600 --> 02:06:57,580
 Lawrence County leading Franklin County 14-0.

2402
02:06:57,720 --> 02:07:00,840
 In Mississippi, Belmont leads Cussez 16-10.

2403
02:07:01,560 --> 02:07:04,080
 Houston leading Ittawamba 22-21.

2404
02:07:04,680 --> 02:07:07,440
 Corinth leading Tishmango County 31-0.

2405
02:07:07,820 --> 02:07:10,280
 College football Tulane leads Memphis 13-10.

2406
02:07:10,700 --> 02:07:13,580
 Appalachian State and Coastal Carolina tied at 14.

2407
02:07:13,700 --> 02:07:15,120
 Washington leads Purdue 10-3.

2408
02:07:15,520 --> 02:07:18,220
 And the Rays and the Guardians are delayed.

2409
02:07:18,460 --> 02:07:20,080
 Now back to the stadium for the halftime show.

2410
02:07:21,040 --> 02:07:24,700
 Here at Austin High School, Florence with a flurry at the end.

2411
02:07:25,220 --> 02:07:28,380
 After being down 14-7 for much of the second quarter.

2412
02:07:28,940 --> 02:07:31,980
 Take it down in about 70 yards in about four plays.

2413
02:07:32,880 --> 02:07:36,980
 Controversy everywhere, but they throw a pass and score it right at the end of the half.

2414
02:07:37,080 --> 02:07:39,000
 As they hit zeroes, as Mahan hits Goolsby.

2415
02:07:39,100 --> 02:07:42,780
 And we're tied at 14 as the Falcons have fought back to tie this up.

2416
02:07:42,840 --> 02:07:44,380
 And it's going to be a tough second half.

2417
02:07:44,440 --> 02:07:45,400
 So hang on, Falcon fans.

2418
02:07:45,440 --> 02:07:48,200
 We're going to need everyone pulling for us here in the second half.

2419
02:07:48,280 --> 02:07:51,340
 We're joined now for the TNT fireworks halftime show

2420
02:07:51,340 --> 02:07:53,340
 with a new coach here at Florence High School.

2421
02:07:53,600 --> 02:07:55,920
 Coach Hunter Morris, the head baseball coach for the Falcons.

2422
02:07:56,020 --> 02:07:56,920
 Coach, welcome aboard.

2423
02:07:57,100 --> 02:07:58,420
 I appreciate you guys having me.

2424
02:07:58,440 --> 02:07:59,260
 I'm excited to be here.

2425
02:07:59,460 --> 02:08:02,580
 I mean, it's pretty fun to come and be a part of a great program,

2426
02:08:02,680 --> 02:08:04,280
 being part of a Florence High School.

2427
02:08:04,380 --> 02:08:07,640
 But also, when you come into the program and you see the football team come out

2428
02:08:07,640 --> 02:08:09,880
 and have a great start to the season, that starts to build like,

2429
02:08:09,980 --> 02:08:11,720
 hey, there's some energy here in the school.

2430
02:08:12,060 --> 02:08:14,700
 You know, and all the credit in the world to Coach Morrison

2431
02:08:14,700 --> 02:08:17,060
 and then certainly to Coach Miles and Coach Bowens

2432
02:08:17,060 --> 02:08:21,240
 that have really gotten this machine in motion right from the start.

2433
02:08:21,240 --> 02:08:24,260
 And we've got a ton of other sports within the athletics department

2434
02:08:24,260 --> 02:08:27,840
 that are really performing well, top in the state.

2435
02:08:28,220 --> 02:08:29,820
 You know, shout out to all of them.

2436
02:08:30,020 --> 02:08:33,960
 And, you know, hopefully we can carry that momentum through not just the spring,

2437
02:08:34,060 --> 02:08:35,100
 but for years to come.

2438
02:08:35,520 --> 02:08:36,720
 Well, baseball is a sport.

2439
02:08:37,080 --> 02:08:39,100
 I mean, it feels like baseball weather tonight, doesn't it?

2440
02:08:39,100 --> 02:08:42,860
 This wind and this cold coming in sort of feels like a high school baseball game

2441
02:08:42,860 --> 02:08:43,560
 should be played, right?

2442
02:08:43,700 --> 02:08:44,140
 It does.

2443
02:08:44,500 --> 02:08:49,140
 And, you know, 65 is going to feel a lot different in February and March than it does today.

2444
02:08:49,440 --> 02:08:52,060
 But, yeah, this feels like baseball weather.

2445
02:08:52,200 --> 02:08:53,100
 So, I'm excited.

2446
02:08:53,320 --> 02:08:54,300
 Let's talk about your career.

2447
02:08:54,420 --> 02:08:55,580
 You went to Auburn University.

2448
02:08:55,760 --> 02:08:56,800
 You're a big player at Auburn.

2449
02:08:56,880 --> 02:09:00,100
 You were SEC Player of the Year back in 2010 as well.

2450
02:09:00,480 --> 02:09:03,380
 And, of course, you got to go to the leagues as well.

2451
02:09:03,720 --> 02:09:04,960
 A great career for you.

2452
02:09:05,020 --> 02:09:05,860
 That was a lot of fun.

2453
02:09:05,860 --> 02:09:08,200
 But has that helped shape you a lot as who you are as a coach?

2454
02:09:08,620 --> 02:09:09,040
 It has.

2455
02:09:09,180 --> 02:09:14,000
 You know, I've been so fortunate throughout all the experiences I've had in baseball as a player,

2456
02:09:14,100 --> 02:09:16,700
 as a coach, you know, all the way up to the SEC level.

2457
02:09:17,060 --> 02:09:19,580
 And, you know, just little things.

2458
02:09:19,700 --> 02:09:22,800
 I knew I wanted to be a coach my whole life whenever I was done playing.

2459
02:09:23,960 --> 02:09:30,480
 And so, for me, it was taking little tidbits of everything that I liked or didn't like about every coach that I played for

2460
02:09:30,480 --> 02:09:36,340
 and just trying to mold that into the best version of who would I want to play for,

2461
02:09:36,540 --> 02:09:39,880
 who would make me go, who would make me want to run through that brick wall,

2462
02:09:40,480 --> 02:09:44,460
 who did I know who had my back, those kind of things, and helped me develop.

2463
02:09:44,880 --> 02:09:47,120
 And, you know, so I've been around a lot of great ones.

2464
02:09:47,220 --> 02:09:48,020
 I've been very blessed.

2465
02:09:48,480 --> 02:09:51,520
 And hopefully can carry that over to our program here at Florence.

2466
02:09:51,660 --> 02:09:52,680
 Well, let's talk about your team.

2467
02:09:52,720 --> 02:09:55,880
 As we talk with Hunter Marsh, the head coach for the baseball team at Florence High School,

2468
02:09:56,300 --> 02:09:59,560
 your baseball team's got some strengths coming back, especially on the mound.

2469
02:10:00,140 --> 02:10:00,500
 Yeah.

2470
02:10:00,960 --> 02:10:04,200
 We've got a chance to be really special on the mound for sure.

2471
02:10:04,200 --> 02:10:08,220
 We've got, you know, some depth coming back from last year.

2472
02:10:08,740 --> 02:10:13,420
 I know Remy Montgomery had, you know, the finger issue last year, and he wasn't quite himself.

2473
02:10:14,020 --> 02:10:15,400
 He's looked great this fall.

2474
02:10:16,200 --> 02:10:18,220
 You know, you've got Klotzbach.

2475
02:10:18,340 --> 02:10:20,360
 You've got Britton Klontz.

2476
02:10:20,360 --> 02:10:21,800
 You've got Kirkland Blank.

2477
02:10:22,260 --> 02:10:24,400
 You know, some guys that, you know, kind of profile as relievers.

2478
02:10:24,620 --> 02:10:34,660
 And then you've got arguably two of the best 29 sophomores in the state, right-handed pitchers in that class that, you know, I think the depth is there.

2479
02:10:36,420 --> 02:10:41,060
 And then you look across, even in the field and offensively, you know, there are no holes.

2480
02:10:41,440 --> 02:10:45,700
 I haven't seen a lot of these guys in person on the field at game time.

2481
02:10:46,320 --> 02:10:53,620
 But from everything that I've been told, from what I've, you know, studied and seen in the program, you know, I just, I think it's a really complete team.

2482
02:10:53,700 --> 02:10:55,540
 And that's exciting to be a part of.

2483
02:10:55,640 --> 02:10:57,680
 By the way, those sophomores are playing football right now.

2484
02:10:57,820 --> 02:10:59,640
 Costin Mayen had the big touchdown pass.

2485
02:11:00,000 --> 02:11:03,020
 Tripp Morris, who's had some big plays as well, the catch on that drive as well.

2486
02:11:03,300 --> 02:11:05,020
 Your son there, he's going to be a sophomore.

2487
02:11:05,480 --> 02:11:08,820
 That's a pitcher, so two really good pitchers go with the rest of that staff.

2488
02:11:08,900 --> 02:11:09,700
 It's going to be fun to see.

2489
02:11:09,900 --> 02:11:15,780
 So, you know, people can be involved, though, in helping out with Florence Baseball because it takes a lot of different things happening.

2490
02:11:15,900 --> 02:11:17,240
 There's a way they can donate, help out.

2491
02:11:17,480 --> 02:11:21,600
 So anytime they want to contact you, they can just contact the school, I'm sure, and find out how to help out, right?

2492
02:11:21,860 --> 02:11:22,140
 Absolutely.

2493
02:11:22,360 --> 02:11:23,140
 Reach out to the school.

2494
02:11:23,300 --> 02:11:24,500
 Reach out to our athletics department.

2495
02:11:25,240 --> 02:11:28,040
 Coach Miles has done an incredible job helping with fundraising.

2496
02:11:28,900 --> 02:11:30,660
 You know, I've got a tremendous booster club.

2497
02:11:30,660 --> 02:11:34,900
 So all it takes is just one phone call to get in touch with me and find out how you can help.

2498
02:11:35,100 --> 02:11:37,580
 And, you know, keep this thing just rolling in the right direction.

2499
02:11:37,860 --> 02:11:38,260
 All right.

2500
02:11:38,320 --> 02:11:41,600
 We've got October baseball going on right now.

2501
02:11:41,840 --> 02:11:45,120
 And we understand the AL is still, I think, delayed today.

2502
02:11:45,260 --> 02:11:49,020
 It may not even get the game in with Cleveland and Tampa Bay.

2503
02:11:49,200 --> 02:11:51,480
 But on the other side, how about those Milwaukee Brewers?

2504
02:11:51,500 --> 02:11:52,000
 Pretty impressive.

2505
02:11:52,200 --> 02:11:54,160
 You know, I couldn't believe it.

2506
02:11:54,160 --> 02:11:59,960
 I actually turned the game off last night when it got to 4-0 and, you know, started working on some other things around the house

2507
02:11:59,960 --> 02:12:03,280
 and then turned it back on right as it had ended.

2508
02:12:03,980 --> 02:12:07,220
 You know, I was in the Brewers organization for six years.

2509
02:12:07,220 --> 02:12:10,320
 So, you know, kind of that rebuilding stage.

2510
02:12:10,420 --> 02:12:12,780
 And then they finally started to click these last couple years.

2511
02:12:13,100 --> 02:12:15,900
 Winning 103 games in the regular season this year was incredible.

2512
02:12:16,800 --> 02:12:19,340
 And so I've still got a handful of friends.

2513
02:12:20,660 --> 02:12:23,880
 At my age, now it's more on the coaching staff than it is the players.

2514
02:12:24,300 --> 02:12:29,500
 But, you know, some of those guys, some of the coaches I played, I was fortunate enough to play for in the minor leagues.

2515
02:12:30,640 --> 02:12:33,860
 And some of the players even, you know, we were teammates coming up.

2516
02:12:34,040 --> 02:12:35,940
 And so thrilled to death for them.

2517
02:12:36,280 --> 02:12:43,380
 I think that, you know, they just, they got a great opportunity here with some extra days of rest versus what the AL is going to have.

2518
02:12:43,500 --> 02:12:45,840
 And I think the matchup is incredible for them.

2519
02:12:46,140 --> 02:12:49,220
 Well, Coach, we're excited about the baseball season coming up around the corner.

2520
02:12:49,320 --> 02:12:50,260
 You'll be here before you know it.

2521
02:12:50,480 --> 02:12:51,340
 We look forward to it.

2522
02:12:51,360 --> 02:12:53,640
 We can't wait to see it and come out to support your team.

2523
02:12:53,980 --> 02:12:55,560
 And it should be a great, fun season.

2524
02:12:55,740 --> 02:12:58,520
 And let's see if we can get this Falcons football team to eat no to not, okay?

2525
02:12:58,620 --> 02:12:59,220
 Let's get there.

2526
02:12:59,380 --> 02:12:59,840
 That'll be good.

2527
02:12:59,900 --> 02:13:02,500
 Coach Hunter Mars, the baseball coach for Florence High School.

2528
02:13:02,500 --> 02:13:08,560
 More from the TNT Fireworks pregame show, or excuse me, halftime show where Florence and Austin tied at 14.

2529
02:13:08,720 --> 02:13:09,840
 We're back in one minute.

2530
02:13:10,160 --> 02:13:12,700
 Hey, guys, this is Mark down at Warehouse Tackle.

2531
02:13:12,980 --> 02:13:17,960
 So we offer the best fishing, tackle, and outdoor supplies in the Shoals area.

2532
02:13:18,080 --> 02:13:20,960
 We're located on 417 East College Street.

2533
02:13:20,960 --> 02:13:25,540
 Our phone number is 256-980-0951.

2534
02:13:26,140 --> 02:13:31,200
 And you can find us on the web at www.WarehouseTackle.com.

2535
02:13:31,380 --> 02:13:32,240
 Come and see us.

2536
02:13:32,500 --> 02:13:39,700
 We're proud to be a sponsor of Florence Falcons football, and we wish Coach Morrison and the team good luck to you in your season.

2537
02:13:40,220 --> 02:13:42,780
 This is Miranda Haddock with the Florence Education Foundation.

2538
02:13:43,440 --> 02:13:46,500
 We invite you to support our Friends of the Foundation campaign.

2539
02:13:46,720 --> 02:13:52,500
 As a friend of the foundation, you can contribute any amount to help fund classroom needs in Florence City Schools.

2540
02:13:53,100 --> 02:13:59,600
 Please visit our website at FlorenceEducationFoundation.org to explore our new giving levels and the added perks available.

2541
02:14:00,280 --> 02:14:04,500
 We would like to wish Coach Morrison and the entire Falcon football team good luck this season.

2542
02:14:05,500 --> 02:14:09,160
 I'm joined now by the head coach of the Florence golf team, Coach Parker Driggers.

2543
02:14:09,280 --> 02:14:10,920
 And Coach, new position.

2544
02:14:11,100 --> 02:14:13,060
 Are you excited about being a part of the golf team?

2545
02:14:13,260 --> 02:14:14,120
 Yeah, I'm excited.

2546
02:14:14,480 --> 02:14:16,580
 It's something I've wanted to do since getting to Florence.

2547
02:14:16,780 --> 02:14:23,000
 And I'm just blessed for the opportunity to finally get to do it and take control of the golf team and, you know, be out there with the guys.

2548
02:14:23,260 --> 02:14:23,920
 So, I'm excited.

2549
02:14:24,240 --> 02:14:26,460
 We know that you played football, obviously, at Division I level.

2550
02:14:26,540 --> 02:14:28,380
 When you were in high school, were you a golfer in high school?

2551
02:14:28,460 --> 02:14:30,100
 Is that something that was on your bucket list?

2552
02:14:30,220 --> 02:14:31,560
 Yeah, I played in high school.

2553
02:14:31,880 --> 02:14:34,840
 We actually got a golf team my junior year of high school.

2554
02:14:35,460 --> 02:14:37,460
 And so, I was able to start playing my junior year.

2555
02:14:37,580 --> 02:14:38,760
 Played a little bit growing up.

2556
02:14:39,720 --> 02:14:44,400
 Then through college, continued to play outside of football and just love the mental side of the game.

2557
02:14:44,600 --> 02:14:45,140
 Love playing it.

2558
02:14:45,180 --> 02:14:45,820
 Love being out there.

2559
02:14:46,080 --> 02:14:46,900
 So, yeah.

2560
02:14:47,020 --> 02:14:47,660
 I mean, I love the game.

2561
02:14:47,760 --> 02:14:48,440
 Love being around it.

2562
02:14:48,560 --> 02:14:49,360
 Love everything about it.

2563
02:14:49,440 --> 02:14:50,900
 Let's talk about your golf team coming up.

2564
02:14:50,940 --> 02:14:51,940
 What do you expect from them?

2565
02:14:52,060 --> 02:14:53,420
 And when does the season start?

2566
02:14:53,820 --> 02:14:55,580
 So, we'll start practicing in January.

2567
02:14:56,800 --> 02:15:02,480
 You know, we can start having tournaments late February into March and through April and into May.

2568
02:15:03,600 --> 02:15:05,480
 You know, I've gotten a chance to meet the team a couple times.

2569
02:15:05,700 --> 02:15:06,020
 Excited.

2570
02:15:06,140 --> 02:15:07,280
 We've got Aiden Thick Penn, a senior.

2571
02:15:07,800 --> 02:15:09,560
 He's our stud.

2572
02:15:09,980 --> 02:15:16,020
 Excited about him, what he's going to bring and see if we can go, you know, chase a ring down and just be the best we can be as a group.

2573
02:15:16,180 --> 02:15:19,620
 I know as we speak with Parker Driggers, the head golf coach at Florence High School,

2574
02:15:19,720 --> 02:15:23,380
 one of the things that we have a lot of golfers that listen that are always playing,

2575
02:15:23,440 --> 02:15:25,500
 but they can help out with the golf program at Florence High School.

2576
02:15:25,780 --> 02:15:27,780
 That would be a great thing for them to donate and help as well.

2577
02:15:27,880 --> 02:15:28,120
 Right.

2578
02:15:28,240 --> 02:15:32,480
 You know, we're a little late into it, but going into next year, you know,

2579
02:15:32,480 --> 02:15:37,400
 I'd love to host a tournament for local golfers to come and, you know, sponsorship and everything.

2580
02:15:37,640 --> 02:15:38,440
 Just be a part of it.

2581
02:15:38,700 --> 02:15:39,720
 Come pour into the guys.

2582
02:15:39,820 --> 02:15:42,240
 Come see what we have and, you know, grow the program.

2583
02:15:42,500 --> 02:15:47,200
 That's what it's about, growing the program and making it better than, you know, how you found it.

2584
02:15:47,600 --> 02:15:48,520
 Best of luck, okay.

2585
02:15:48,760 --> 02:15:49,100
 Thank you.

2586
02:15:49,320 --> 02:15:51,680

2603
02:17:07,700 --> 02:17:14,940
 Back at Austin High School at the half on the TNT Fireworks Halftime Show.

2604
02:17:15,600 --> 02:17:17,360
 Florence and Austin tied at 14.

2605
02:17:17,500 --> 02:17:20,080
 Kevin Johnson, Mike Albertson, Jeffrey Jones, John McDaniel with us.

2606
02:17:20,460 --> 02:17:22,660
 And we're going to go for our Chick-fil-A stats at half.

2607
02:17:22,780 --> 02:17:24,260
 John McDaniel, I'll let you take it away.

2608
02:17:24,600 --> 02:17:25,220
 All right, Kevin.

2609
02:17:25,280 --> 02:17:26,120
 Thank you very much.

2610
02:17:26,120 --> 02:17:30,220
 We'll start with the home team, the Austin Black Bears.

2611
02:17:30,340 --> 02:17:34,120
 First half, they have 135 yards of total offense.

2612
02:17:34,540 --> 02:17:37,560
 Have 128 yards rushing on 30 carries.

2613
02:17:38,340 --> 02:17:41,760
 One for three passing for a grand total of seven yards.

2614
02:17:42,960 --> 02:17:44,460
 First downs, they have nine.

2615
02:17:45,260 --> 02:17:47,360
 One for seven on third down conversions.

2616
02:17:48,080 --> 02:17:50,440
 Two for three on fourth down conversions.

2617
02:17:51,440 --> 02:17:54,040
 Seven penalties for 60 yards in the half.

2618
02:17:54,280 --> 02:17:55,320
 One turnover.

2619
02:17:56,080 --> 02:17:58,660
 Two for two on their PAT attempts.

2620
02:17:59,300 --> 02:18:03,040
 Time of possession is 14 minutes, 35 seconds.

2621
02:18:04,440 --> 02:18:06,740
 Aiden Davis already in the half.

2622
02:18:06,820 --> 02:18:12,260
 He has 19 carries for 107 yards and, of course, two touchdowns.

2623
02:18:12,880 --> 02:18:16,420
 The Falcons in the half, 225 yards of offense.

2624
02:18:17,240 --> 02:18:21,200
 We have 126 yards rushing on 16 carries.

2625
02:18:22,360 --> 02:18:24,040
 99 yards passing.

2626
02:18:24,780 --> 02:18:27,740
 Six for six completions and attempts.

2627
02:18:28,420 --> 02:18:29,860
 Nine first downs in the half.

2628
02:18:29,860 --> 02:18:34,500
 Nine for one on third down conversions and no fourth down attempts.

2629
02:18:35,180 --> 02:18:38,240
 Three penalties for 41 yards in the half.

2630
02:18:38,800 --> 02:18:40,440
 Of course, the big three turnovers.

2631
02:18:41,120 --> 02:18:43,560
 Also, two for two on our PAT attempts.

2632
02:18:44,980 --> 02:18:48,940
 And our time of possession, nine minutes, 17 seconds.

2633
02:18:50,080 --> 02:18:51,060
 Back to you, KJ.

2634
02:18:51,580 --> 02:18:55,960
 Yeah, the time of possession, not as much as I thought, but it still favors Austin in a couple

2635
02:18:55,960 --> 02:18:56,700
 of possessions there.

2636
02:18:56,860 --> 02:19:02,340
 And, Mike, if you tell Kenny Marson at the half, hey, your team has fumbled it and lost

2637
02:19:02,340 --> 02:19:07,940
 it three times and you're still tied at 14 at the half, you've got to say, okay, if we can

2638
02:19:07,940 --> 02:19:11,120
 come out of that and be tied at 14, that's pretty amazing.

2639
02:19:11,780 --> 02:19:12,780
 It is pretty amazing.

2640
02:19:13,020 --> 02:19:17,260
 However, you know, this is not the type game that you're going to want to give away three

2641
02:19:17,260 --> 02:19:18,300
 turnovers and everything.

2642
02:19:18,500 --> 02:19:21,540
 So, all that being said, they better clean it up in the second half because they're not

2643
02:19:21,540 --> 02:19:23,080
 going to get away with that again.

2644
02:19:23,340 --> 02:19:29,540
 That was a gift to be able to come away 14-14 there, and now the execution needs to be solid.

2645
02:19:30,260 --> 02:19:31,920
 We're playing for a region championship here.

2646
02:19:31,920 --> 02:19:36,340
 This is not, that can't continue if we expect to win.

2647
02:19:36,500 --> 02:19:39,880
 Well, we had Hunter Marsh, the baseball coach for Florence High School, did a great job

2648
02:19:39,880 --> 02:19:40,720
 with us at the half.

2649
02:19:41,160 --> 02:19:46,480
 They are guests, and, Mike, if I'm honest about it, it's not easy to close out in the

2650
02:19:46,480 --> 02:19:49,320
 ninth inning, and it's not easy to close out for a region championship either.

2651
02:19:49,840 --> 02:19:50,760
 No, it definitely isn't.

2652
02:19:50,860 --> 02:19:54,760
 You know, when the lights are the brightest and the real pressure is on, and you know what's

2653
02:19:54,760 --> 02:19:55,180
 at stake.

2654
02:19:55,300 --> 02:19:56,680
 I mean, it's really what you've worked for.

2655
02:19:56,800 --> 02:20:00,820
 At this point, you know, we've weathered that storm.

2656
02:20:01,180 --> 02:20:03,920
 We're continuing to face adversity.

2657
02:20:04,120 --> 02:20:04,900
 We're going to be on the road.

2658
02:20:05,000 --> 02:20:07,280
 It's going to be a battle from here on out.

2659
02:20:07,780 --> 02:20:10,880
 But at this point, you've come through, and you've tied the game up.

2660
02:20:11,040 --> 02:20:13,440
 At the half, it's time to execute in the second half.

2661
02:20:13,560 --> 02:20:13,980
 My apologies.

2662
02:20:14,120 --> 02:20:14,880
 Didn't mean to interrupt you there.

2663
02:20:14,920 --> 02:20:15,980
 I was going to go down to Jeffrey Jones.

2664
02:20:16,080 --> 02:20:17,220
 JJ, are you inside the tent?

2665
02:20:18,220 --> 02:20:19,340
 To the left of you, KJ.

2666
02:20:19,480 --> 02:20:20,400
 Oh, I didn't see you down here.

2667
02:20:20,640 --> 02:20:20,780
 See you right here.

2668
02:20:21,060 --> 02:20:21,680
 There we go.

2669
02:20:21,760 --> 02:20:22,240
 There you go.

2670
02:20:22,300 --> 02:20:23,600
 I didn't know he's sliding in there, okay?

2671
02:20:23,820 --> 02:20:25,320
 I thought he might have been inside the tent there.

2672
02:20:25,320 --> 02:20:29,600
 Jeffrey, on the sideline, that last drive had to bring some energy to the Florence

2673
02:20:29,600 --> 02:20:29,860
 team.

2674
02:20:30,420 --> 02:20:31,640
 Unbelievable, a lot of energy.

2675
02:20:32,020 --> 02:20:35,780
 I mean, first of all, I need to say this before the end of the broadcast.

2676
02:20:36,060 --> 02:20:38,240
 Remind me next week, if it's like this, to bring my Snuggie.

2677
02:20:39,180 --> 02:20:41,200
 I really miss that thing right now.

2678
02:20:42,240 --> 02:20:46,400
 I'm usually, on weather like this, that's where I usually am, under my Snuggie and a couple

2679
02:20:46,400 --> 02:20:47,220
 blankets.

2680
02:20:47,220 --> 02:20:51,400
 But, yeah, so the last drive was outstanding.

2681
02:20:51,820 --> 02:20:54,680
 You know, we saw a lot of maturity out of Calston.

2682
02:20:55,760 --> 02:20:59,820
 Goolsby got open twice and made miraculous catches.

2683
02:20:59,960 --> 02:21:03,600
 One of them was, the first one he caught, it looked like it was just slow motion.

2684
02:21:03,960 --> 02:21:06,300
 And you're like, oh, yeah, and he caught it.

2685
02:21:06,500 --> 02:21:07,960
 So, outstanding job.

2686
02:21:08,560 --> 02:21:09,540
 You know, we're lucky.

2687
02:21:10,100 --> 02:21:11,100
 Right now, we're very lucky.

2688
02:21:11,220 --> 02:21:14,820
 We played the worst half of football we've played all year, by far.

2689
02:21:14,860 --> 02:21:16,260
 And we played a couple bad halves.

2690
02:21:16,780 --> 02:21:17,780
 I mean, I'll be honest with you.

2691
02:21:18,100 --> 02:21:19,540
 Decatur wasn't the prettiest game.

2692
02:21:20,600 --> 02:21:22,320
 Athens, we didn't play well in the first half.

2693
02:21:22,580 --> 02:21:28,000
 But we are tied up 14-14 against a very good Austin team.

2694
02:21:28,340 --> 02:21:29,240
 We're going to go in here.

2695
02:21:29,500 --> 02:21:30,880
 We've seen that running back.

2696
02:21:31,000 --> 02:21:33,780
 We know that he's going to get 75 carries in the second half.

2697
02:21:34,320 --> 02:21:35,960
 So, we're just going to have to hit him.

2698
02:21:36,100 --> 02:21:36,920
 We're going to keep hitting him.

2699
02:21:37,080 --> 02:21:40,260
 You know, I think if we, they're going to run him.

2700
02:21:40,560 --> 02:21:43,180
 And if we just keep hitting him, keep hitting him, he's not going to wear us out.

2701
02:21:43,240 --> 02:21:44,060
 We're going to wear him out.

2702
02:21:44,560 --> 02:21:45,620
 That's what I'm thinking.

2703
02:21:45,680 --> 02:21:46,420
 We're going to wear him out.

2704
02:21:46,460 --> 02:21:48,160
 Because their second-string running back, Gibbs, is good.

2705
02:21:48,620 --> 02:21:49,920
 But he is no Aiden Davis.

2706
02:21:49,980 --> 02:21:50,500
 There's no doubt.

2707
02:21:50,880 --> 02:21:54,100
 And by the way, the kickoff will be 15-yard penalty against Florence.

2708
02:21:54,100 --> 02:21:56,480
 They'll have to kick it from the 25.

2709
02:21:57,220 --> 02:22:01,220
 And if they kick it into the wind, then that's going to make a factor, too.

2710
02:22:01,600 --> 02:22:04,760
 But Florence could have the wind in the fourth quarter, which also could be a factor.

2711
02:22:04,960 --> 02:22:05,480
 So, we'll keep it on that.

2712
02:22:05,480 --> 02:22:05,800
 Huge factor.

2713
02:22:06,100 --> 02:22:09,680
 Whoever has the wind in the fourth quarter has a definite advantage.

2714
02:22:09,840 --> 02:22:11,700
 I think it could be a huge factor as well.

2715
02:22:11,940 --> 02:22:16,120
 So, kicking game in this wind, all these things are going to be huge factors as well.

2716
02:22:16,820 --> 02:22:19,120
 Saturday, lots of college football coming up.

2717
02:22:19,480 --> 02:22:23,000
 Alabama and Tennessee, the big one up in Rocky Top.

2718
02:22:23,560 --> 02:22:26,020
 Guys, I know you look at that game.

2719
02:22:26,300 --> 02:22:30,500
 I think, obviously, personally, I think Alabama wins and wins big against Tennessee.

2720
02:22:30,960 --> 02:22:35,940
 I don't think it will be close, and I think they are going to be licking their wounds and not happy.

2721
02:22:36,340 --> 02:22:37,780
 And Tennessee is catching them at the wrong time.

2722
02:22:37,860 --> 02:22:38,860
 But I'll go to Mike.

2723
02:22:38,920 --> 02:22:41,120
 Mike, what do you think about that one tomorrow up in Knoxville?

2724
02:22:41,440 --> 02:22:44,240
 Yeah, you know, there's plenty to think about.

2725
02:22:45,600 --> 02:22:48,720
 In Knoxville, Tennessee took Texas to the wire.

2726
02:22:49,200 --> 02:22:50,640
 So, you know, anything can happen up there.

2727
02:22:50,740 --> 02:22:52,440
 It's on their home field, all that other stuff.

2728
02:22:52,440 --> 02:22:55,460
 But, you know, Saturday night in the SEC is always wild.

2729
02:22:56,020 --> 02:23:01,860
 So, I don't, you know, I think Alabama comes away, but I'm not predicting any crazy blowout or anything.

2730
02:23:02,080 --> 02:23:02,880
 John, what do you think?

2731
02:23:03,080 --> 02:23:07,820
 I think if both teams, I think everybody kind of recognize, both teams play their A game.

2732
02:23:08,680 --> 02:23:10,400
 Alabama's probably the better team.

2733
02:23:10,740 --> 02:23:14,620
 The thing no one knows is what Alabama team is going to show up.

2734
02:23:14,980 --> 02:23:16,740
 Do they let last week affect them?

2735
02:23:16,740 --> 02:23:18,880
 Do they come out lethargic?

2736
02:23:20,260 --> 02:23:21,680
 Or do they come out on fire?

2737
02:23:22,260 --> 02:23:25,240
 That's a question that you don't know about this, Miss Bama team.

2738
02:23:25,340 --> 02:23:29,000
 They haven't had, of course, obviously the first adversity.

2739
02:23:29,360 --> 02:23:31,640
 And so, I want to see how they play.

2740
02:23:32,560 --> 02:23:39,220
 I would pick the tide, but I'm interested to see if they can go into that stadium and play well.

2741
02:23:39,800 --> 02:23:40,620
 J.J., what do you think?

2742
02:23:40,660 --> 02:23:45,680
 In this situation, I'd normally say Alabama by 100, but I'm going to say Alabama by 90.

2743
02:23:46,220 --> 02:23:46,420
 Yeah.

2744
02:23:46,420 --> 02:23:53,400
 Because I think that Bama fans, if you're heading up to Rocky Top, if you're in the cigar smoking thing,

2745
02:23:53,520 --> 02:23:56,320
 bring your cigars because that's apparently a weird tradition.

2746
02:23:57,060 --> 02:23:58,780
 But you know it's weird.

2747
02:23:59,400 --> 02:24:01,160
 Yeah, toilet paper on a tree is not weird.

2748
02:24:01,300 --> 02:24:01,420
 Okay.

2749
02:24:01,560 --> 02:24:04,120
 Oh, man, that's just, that's sacred.

2750
02:24:04,660 --> 02:24:07,140
 Anyway, I'll take Alabama by 90.

2751
02:24:07,740 --> 02:24:08,340
 Alabama by 90.

2752
02:24:08,420 --> 02:24:08,940
 Okay, let's go.

2753
02:24:09,060 --> 02:24:09,740
 Hey, other games.

2754
02:24:10,260 --> 02:24:14,620
 By the way, I know Georgia will handle Auburn, I think, and I'm an Auburn fan.

2755
02:24:14,740 --> 02:24:16,100
 Not so fast, my friend.

2756
02:24:16,140 --> 02:24:17,400
 You think Auburn has a chance?

2757
02:24:17,520 --> 02:24:17,740
 No.

2758
02:24:17,960 --> 02:24:18,960
 Okay, thank you very much.

2759
02:24:19,040 --> 02:24:19,740
 Okay, I'll be honest.

2760
02:24:20,180 --> 02:24:23,000
 You know, one that catches my attention, Missouri goes to Ole Miss tomorrow.

2761
02:24:23,460 --> 02:24:25,040
 I really like Missouri.

2762
02:24:25,240 --> 02:24:28,760
 I think that's a tough game for Ole Miss at home against Missouri.

2763
02:24:29,140 --> 02:24:30,820
 That's going to be a fun game to watch, Mike.

2764
02:24:31,280 --> 02:24:32,840
 It probably will be, actually.

2765
02:24:33,000 --> 02:24:36,440
 You know, Ole Miss, you know, they came out right away against LSU.

2766
02:24:36,560 --> 02:24:40,880
 They won that big game, and it's kind of been, what are we looking at since?

2767
02:24:40,880 --> 02:24:42,920
 So, and Missouri's come out and played well.

2768
02:24:43,080 --> 02:24:46,920
 So, I mean, that game could be one of those very interesting games in the SEC.

2769
02:24:47,180 --> 02:24:53,340
 And don't forget, their starting quarterback was the quarterback who started for Ole Miss last season to begin the year.

2770
02:24:53,960 --> 02:24:57,880
 And he was put on the bench after he got Wally pipped a little bit.

2771
02:24:58,260 --> 02:25:00,560
 And he is going to have his hair on fire.

2772
02:25:00,640 --> 02:25:01,880
 How well he'll play, I don't know.

2773
02:25:01,940 --> 02:25:08,280
 But he is going to be excited to be back in Oxford and showing what they, in his opinion, they missed out on.

2774
02:25:08,640 --> 02:25:12,580
 You know, the other ones that catch my attention a little bit, you look at a few games tomorrow.

2775
02:25:13,020 --> 02:25:14,620
 Florida, Jeffrey goes to Texas.

2776
02:25:15,360 --> 02:25:18,560
 And Texas has just not impressed me as much this year.

2777
02:25:18,840 --> 02:25:20,220
 Well, good point.

2778
02:25:20,300 --> 02:25:20,700
 You're right.

2779
02:25:20,700 --> 02:25:26,740
 I think that instead of getting on to Texas for the performance last week, you've got to give Oklahoma some credit,

2780
02:25:26,860 --> 02:25:27,780
 especially that defense.

2781
02:25:28,140 --> 02:25:29,440
 That defense showed up well.

2782
02:25:29,980 --> 02:25:32,820
 You know, Texas has underperformed a little bit as a team.

2783
02:25:33,380 --> 02:25:37,640
 But, you know, I give credit to Oklahoma's defense on shutting them down.

2784
02:25:38,920 --> 02:25:40,020
 Manny has to have some help.

2785
02:25:40,160 --> 02:25:41,360
 He has to have some help from his receivers.

2786
02:25:41,540 --> 02:25:43,060
 He has to have some help from his offensive line.

2787
02:25:43,860 --> 02:25:47,760
 But, anyway, I do like Texas tomorrow.

2788
02:25:48,020 --> 02:25:49,680
 I'll tell you, I'll end it this way.

2789
02:25:49,680 --> 02:25:50,800
 I'm just going to end it this way.

2790
02:25:50,880 --> 02:25:53,620
 And I'm going to say that I think I'll give you the score for tomorrow.

2791
02:25:53,980 --> 02:25:55,060
 And it's the one you can put down.

2792
02:25:55,060 --> 02:26:00,320
 And I think Kentucky will go to Oklahoma, and Kentucky will beat Oklahoma 35-34.

2793
02:26:00,660 --> 02:26:03,420
 They'll do it three weeks in a row by the same score in the two-point conversion.

2794
02:26:03,820 --> 02:26:05,260
 They've got everything going their way.

2795
02:26:05,580 --> 02:26:08,300
 They're a fun team to watch right now and playing really well.

2796
02:26:08,340 --> 02:26:09,100
 So, that should be a good one.

2797
02:26:09,140 --> 02:26:09,740
 Any upset, y'all say?

2798
02:26:09,740 --> 02:26:11,500
 It's not in our footprint, so to speak.

2799
02:26:11,600 --> 02:26:14,600
 But, I mean, let's talk about Ohio State going to Indiana.

2800
02:26:14,660 --> 02:26:15,000
 Oh, yeah.

2801
02:26:15,400 --> 02:26:18,520
 Those two teams are pretty highly ranked, if I remember correctly.

2802
02:26:18,680 --> 02:26:19,200
 Yeah, they are.

2803
02:26:19,280 --> 02:26:21,000
 It's an 11 o'clock game in Bloomington.

2804
02:26:21,520 --> 02:26:27,020
 Yes, and you know right now Ohio State is still stinging from losing to Indiana last year.

2805
02:26:27,260 --> 02:26:29,640
 But I heard somebody say it today, and I tend to agree.

2806
02:26:30,140 --> 02:26:33,740
 Indiana may be one of the best coached teams in all of America.

2807
02:26:33,840 --> 02:26:34,580
 They showed it last year.

2808
02:26:34,640 --> 02:26:37,040
 They did it again against Nebraska when they looked like they were down.

2809
02:26:37,140 --> 02:26:38,920
 And they just battled back and won that one.

2810
02:26:38,920 --> 02:26:40,540
 So, it'll be a close game.

2811
02:26:40,700 --> 02:26:43,420
 But something tells me the Buckeyes may win that one.

2812
02:26:43,800 --> 02:26:47,540
 We're at the half where Florence and Austin are tied at 14.

2813
02:26:48,880 --> 02:26:50,020
 Buckle up, Falcon fans.

2814
02:26:50,180 --> 02:26:53,440
 Third quarter action coming on this windy, cold night in Decatur, Alabama.

2815
02:26:53,920 --> 02:26:56,560
 Florence Falcon football returns after this one-minute timeout.

2816
02:26:57,780 --> 02:26:58,840
 Hey, Falcon fans.

2817
02:26:58,900 --> 02:27:00,580
 This is Keith, Cypress Creek Indoor Range.

2818
02:27:00,920 --> 02:27:04,980
 We know great defense starts up front, and the Falcons start with Jaden White, your defensive tackle.

2819
02:27:05,340 --> 02:27:10,520
 Whether stopping the run or disrupting that quarterback, Jaden has the right tools, puts in the hard work,

2820
02:27:10,620 --> 02:27:13,420
 and has the right training to stop the offensive threat of opposing teams.

2821
02:27:13,800 --> 02:27:18,100
 Let Cypress Creek Indoor Range provide you with the tools, training, and resources to defend your family.

2822
02:27:18,520 --> 02:27:25,340
 We're the biggest gun store in the Shoals and the only indoor shooting range and training center to provide everything you need to have the best defense for your family.

2823
02:27:25,840 --> 02:27:30,060
 Cypress Creek Indoor Range is located at 5060 Highway 157 in Underwood Petersville.

2824
02:27:30,540 --> 02:27:33,680
 On the web, cypresscreekrange.com, and on social media.

2825
02:27:34,100 --> 02:27:34,640
 Go Falcons!

2826
02:27:36,140 --> 02:27:37,860
 It's football time in Alabama.

2827
02:27:38,340 --> 02:27:40,480
 Our students are learning big American lessons.

2828
02:27:41,180 --> 02:27:47,900
 You can start with your God-given talents, and through practice, hard work, and sacrifice, you have the ability to become champions.

2829
02:27:48,700 --> 02:27:50,260
 This is Congressman Robert Adderholt.

2830
02:27:50,800 --> 02:27:57,220
 May God bless all of our students representing our high schools during this season, and may God bless the United States of America.

2831
02:27:57,860 --> 02:28:00,140
 I'm Robert Adderholt, and I approve this message.

2832
02:28:00,880 --> 02:28:03,000
 Paid for by Adderholt for Congress.

2833
02:28:09,520 --> 02:28:13,180
 Third quarter action about to get underway here at Austin High School.

2834
02:28:13,980 --> 02:28:16,000
 Florence and Austin tied at 14.

2835
02:28:16,720 --> 02:28:23,340
 Florence took the opening kick into the wind and went down and scored early on 7-0.

2836
02:28:23,480 --> 02:28:25,560
 Kayon getting the touchdown, Kayon Williams.

2837
02:28:26,460 --> 02:28:31,380
 But Austin answered right back, and Aiden Davis put it into the end zone, and it was 7-7 in the first quarter.

2838
02:28:32,060 --> 02:28:38,580
 In the second quarter, Florence got stopped, had to punt it into the wind, actually still in the first quarter, into the wind.

2839
02:28:38,580 --> 02:28:41,740
 And that punt into the wind only went about 15-20 yards.

2840
02:28:42,440 --> 02:28:43,360
 I mean, it was just brutal.

2841
02:28:43,600 --> 02:28:45,540
 And not the punt, but just because of the wind.

2842
02:28:45,900 --> 02:28:54,140
 And it was at the 40-yard line, and the Black Bears, the Black Bears drove it 40 yards, and Davis put it in zone 14-7.

2843
02:28:54,640 --> 02:28:59,580
 Florence fumbled it three times between then and the end of the first half.

2844
02:28:59,640 --> 02:29:06,120
 But finally, a two-minute drive, actually with a minute left, they drive it down the field, and it was Mahan to Gullsby for the touchdown.

2845
02:29:06,600 --> 02:29:07,560
 Extra point good.

2846
02:29:07,560 --> 02:29:08,560
 Tied at 14.

2847
02:29:08,740 --> 02:29:10,340
 There was a penalty at the end of that.

2848
02:29:10,800 --> 02:29:12,360
 That's a 15-yarder against Florence.

2849
02:29:12,420 --> 02:29:13,280
 We'll have to kick it off.

2850
02:29:13,800 --> 02:29:16,740
 Florence will have the wind with them to start the third quarter.

2851
02:29:16,860 --> 02:29:17,800
 Sort of don't like that.

2852
02:29:18,040 --> 02:29:19,780
 Wish they had it in the fourth quarter, but here we go.

2853
02:29:20,580 --> 02:29:24,000
 And Greenhawk kicks it deep, real deep, back to the 15-yard line.

2854
02:29:24,340 --> 02:29:27,100
 Taken there by the Black Bears at the 25 to the 30.

2855
02:29:27,380 --> 02:29:28,240
 Looking for running room.

2856
02:29:28,300 --> 02:29:30,380
 Trying to get outside and hit hard and knocked down.

2857
02:29:30,820 --> 02:29:32,480
 Great open field tackle there.

2858
02:29:32,900 --> 02:29:34,860
 The Colin Jones comes up and knocks him down.

2859
02:29:35,280 --> 02:29:40,600
 Back inside of the 30-yard line at the 26, and that's where the Black Bears will have it first and 10.

2860
02:29:41,200 --> 02:29:44,740
 And Kenny Morrison out there imploring his team to keep playing well.

2861
02:29:46,500 --> 02:29:50,380
 This is where, with the wind, Mike, I feel like you really got to make something happen, too, if you're Florence.

2862
02:29:51,180 --> 02:30:00,880
 Yeah, I think this quarter is going to be a big quarter here where they're going to have to continue to hammer away and really put the pressure on the Black Bears.

2863
02:30:01,960 --> 02:30:05,820
 I actually thought we would get to pick the direction we were going since they got the ball.

2864
02:30:06,080 --> 02:30:07,140
 And maybe he did.

2865
02:30:07,240 --> 02:30:07,800
 I don't know.

2866
02:30:08,380 --> 02:30:09,160
 If he did.

2867
02:30:09,760 --> 02:30:10,960
 If he did, that's interesting.

2868
02:30:11,040 --> 02:30:11,720
 He went with it.

2869
02:30:12,460 --> 02:30:14,620
 Maybe because of the kickoff from the 25, too.

2870
02:30:15,400 --> 02:30:17,260
 Davis the tailback behind Jarman the quarterback.

2871
02:30:17,940 --> 02:30:19,620
 Going to give it to Davis up the middle.

2872
02:30:19,900 --> 02:30:20,400
 No pass.

2873
02:30:20,520 --> 02:30:21,540
 Quick throws out the gift.

2874
02:30:21,620 --> 02:30:22,480
 He's got it to 30.

2875
02:30:22,740 --> 02:30:24,360
 He fooled me, and he got about 10 yards.

2876
02:30:24,740 --> 02:30:26,820
 Right around the 32-yard line.

2877
02:30:26,880 --> 02:30:27,580
 Give him seven.

2878
02:30:28,580 --> 02:30:31,380
 But they did a little quick throw to the tight end.

2879
02:30:31,960 --> 02:30:34,660
 Get it to him, and Gibbs gets it and gets about seven yards.

2880
02:30:35,100 --> 02:30:36,100
 It's a smart play.

2881
02:30:36,320 --> 02:30:39,880
 You're keying on Davis up the middle, up the middle, up the middle,

2882
02:30:40,220 --> 02:30:45,440
 and just being able to soften that outside edge and trying to attack there is a nice play on first down.

2883
02:30:45,520 --> 02:30:47,060
 And an easy pass and throw, too.

2884
02:30:47,560 --> 02:30:48,360
 Second down and three.

2885
02:30:48,460 --> 02:30:51,100
 The shotgun formation again for Austin going left or right.

2886
02:30:52,920 --> 02:30:54,640
 Jarman waiting for the snap.

2887
02:30:54,780 --> 02:30:55,140
 Gets it.

2888
02:30:55,260 --> 02:30:56,000
 Looks to give it to the side.

2889
02:30:56,080 --> 02:30:56,180
 No.

2890
02:30:56,220 --> 02:30:57,560
 He's going to throw a quick screen out here again.

2891
02:30:57,620 --> 02:30:58,400
 He missed an incomplete.

2892
02:30:58,960 --> 02:31:00,020
 Oh, petty pull.

2893
02:31:00,680 --> 02:31:01,040
 Almost.

2894
02:31:01,960 --> 02:31:05,420
 They're all waving it dead, though.

2895
02:31:05,600 --> 02:31:06,340
 You're right, Kevin.

2896
02:31:06,440 --> 02:31:08,020
 Every time you should run and return it.

2897
02:31:08,140 --> 02:31:10,000
 Kenny Morrison told him to run it to the end zone.

2898
02:31:10,100 --> 02:31:13,240
 I didn't hear a whistle, but the side over here says it was.

2899
02:31:13,320 --> 02:31:13,940
 It was close.

2900
02:31:14,040 --> 02:31:16,400
 Jeffrey Jones, you had the better look than anybody, probably.

2901
02:31:18,220 --> 02:31:18,520
 No.

2902
02:31:18,740 --> 02:31:20,160
 He's got it right there.

2903
02:31:20,380 --> 02:31:22,740
 JJ, was it a forward pass or not?

2904
02:31:22,780 --> 02:31:25,260
 It looked like a lateral to me and the rest of the sideline.

2905
02:31:25,500 --> 02:31:27,120
 We kept encouraging him to just run.

2906
02:31:27,160 --> 02:31:27,820
 Run to the end zone.

2907
02:31:27,820 --> 02:31:28,200
 Okay.

2908
02:31:29,940 --> 02:31:31,300
 Third down and four.

2909
02:31:31,960 --> 02:31:33,640
 Or three, actually, from the 32.

2910
02:31:33,800 --> 02:31:35,020
 They have to get to the 35.

2911
02:31:36,420 --> 02:31:39,180
 Davis is going to get it up the middle, and he's going to get hit.

2912
02:31:39,240 --> 02:31:41,800
 We got the first down and breaks the tackle and get to the 37.

2913
02:31:42,740 --> 02:31:44,320
 He is just really elusive.

2914
02:31:44,460 --> 02:31:45,640
 It's not just big and strong.

2915
02:31:45,760 --> 02:31:48,260
 He made the first guy miss and will move the chains.

2916
02:31:48,340 --> 02:31:50,560
 And I thought it was a forward pass.

2917
02:31:50,680 --> 02:31:51,820
 Personally, it was close.

2918
02:31:52,820 --> 02:31:56,800
 But it brings up first and ten for the Black Bears at the 37-yard line.

2919
02:31:56,920 --> 02:31:58,900
 Tied at 14 with 11.26 to go.

2920
02:31:59,180 --> 02:32:02,420
 What made it look awkward was it hung up there for a second because of the wind.

2921
02:32:02,600 --> 02:32:05,820
 And, you know, it just was not a – it was a slow developing play.

2922
02:32:05,920 --> 02:32:07,040
 Off the left side, Davis.

2923
02:32:07,160 --> 02:32:07,520
 Nowhere.

2924
02:32:07,620 --> 02:32:08,280
 Hitting a backfield.

2925
02:32:08,400 --> 02:32:08,680
 Scoot.

2926
02:32:08,740 --> 02:32:09,240
 Hit again.

2927
02:32:09,540 --> 02:32:10,060
 Gets her down.

2928
02:32:10,120 --> 02:32:11,300
 He goes down for no gain.

2929
02:32:11,720 --> 02:32:12,740
 Much better job.

2930
02:32:13,540 --> 02:32:15,640
 Martinez just pounds the ground and said,

2931
02:32:15,700 --> 02:32:18,040
 I hit him three times, and he's still hard to bring down.

2932
02:32:18,080 --> 02:32:18,780
 He gets a yard.

2933
02:32:19,300 --> 02:32:21,760
 If he's going to be the only running back, though, as a defender,

2934
02:32:22,320 --> 02:32:25,320
 you have got to approach it as I'm going to knock him out.

2935
02:32:25,620 --> 02:32:29,900
 Not necessarily headhunting, but I'm going to hit him in every leg,

2936
02:32:30,000 --> 02:32:32,400
 every stomach, back, front, side.

2937
02:32:32,460 --> 02:32:33,540
 You're going to let him know you're there.

2938
02:32:33,540 --> 02:32:39,080
 You've got to hit him because he's already got – he's already got 23 carries.

2939
02:32:40,040 --> 02:32:43,860
 He had 38 carries, I think it was, last week against Hartsell.

2940
02:32:44,680 --> 02:32:45,760
 Second down and nine.

2941
02:32:45,860 --> 02:32:46,800
 Watch for the pass here.

2942
02:32:47,840 --> 02:32:49,900
 Jarman going to lead with the back of the middle.

2943
02:32:50,000 --> 02:32:52,400
 Davis trying to bounce, and he's hit and spins forward

2944
02:32:52,400 --> 02:32:54,180
 and leans forward out to the 45.

2945
02:32:54,840 --> 02:32:57,860
 He got hit at the 40, and I saw it that time.

2946
02:32:58,420 --> 02:32:59,080
 Man, he's strong.

2947
02:32:59,940 --> 02:33:04,940
 Yeah, he peeled off that tackle as he was trying to be brought down.

2948
02:33:04,940 --> 02:33:07,100
 He peeled off the tackle, put his hand in the dirt,

2949
02:33:07,240 --> 02:33:10,640
 and just dove about three yards to get the extra yardage.

2950
02:33:10,960 --> 02:33:11,540
 Third and two.

2951
02:33:11,620 --> 02:33:12,800
 You've got to lock up with him.

2952
02:33:15,640 --> 02:33:17,600
 Ten minutes and seven seconds, you see.

2953
02:33:17,600 --> 02:33:22,680
 Coach Jeremy Perkins wisely going to use that play clock to all his advantage.

2954
02:33:22,780 --> 02:33:24,520
 He wants to run this third quarter down.

2955
02:33:25,740 --> 02:33:26,600
 Shorten this game.

2956
02:33:26,740 --> 02:33:27,560
 Tied at 14.

2957
02:33:28,420 --> 02:33:29,300
 Third and two.

2958
02:33:30,640 --> 02:33:34,200
 The Falcon fans doing all they can, try to make noise here in front of us.

2959
02:33:34,980 --> 02:33:36,040
 Shotgun formation again.

2960
02:33:36,160 --> 02:33:37,300
 Davis right up the middle.

2961
02:33:37,420 --> 02:33:38,000
 Stopped a hit.

2962
02:33:38,060 --> 02:33:38,780
 He's going nowhere.

2963
02:33:39,180 --> 02:33:40,680
 He got away and got the first down.

2964
02:33:41,180 --> 02:33:42,280
 Jaden White had him.

2965
02:33:42,380 --> 02:33:43,940
 He spun away and got the first down.

2966
02:33:43,940 --> 02:33:48,540
 I thought Jaden White was waiting on the whistle, and he had him, and he let go,

2967
02:33:48,740 --> 02:33:52,040
 and he stayed on his feet, and he got the first down to the 48.

2968
02:33:52,880 --> 02:33:55,140
 That was a big-time play by Aiden Davis.

2969
02:33:55,600 --> 02:33:57,480
 That was a big-time play by Aiden Davis.

2970
02:33:57,680 --> 02:34:00,000
 You cannot give up on the tackle.

2971
02:34:00,160 --> 02:34:02,180
 You have to wrap him up and bring him to the turf.

2972
02:34:02,300 --> 02:34:03,740
 And run your feet, Mike.

2973
02:34:03,880 --> 02:34:04,740
 That's one of the key.

2974
02:34:05,060 --> 02:34:08,080
 What Jaden forgot on that was he stopped his feet.

2975
02:34:08,300 --> 02:34:08,900
 First and ten.

2976
02:34:09,040 --> 02:34:10,180
 Davis off the left side.

2977
02:34:10,300 --> 02:34:11,840
 Looking actually at Greer Gibbs with it.

2978
02:34:11,920 --> 02:34:13,040
 And Gibbs running hard.

2979
02:34:13,120 --> 02:34:14,760
 He gets across the 40 to the 39.

2980
02:34:15,860 --> 02:34:18,980
 So, they bring in a different back, and he has a fresh look, and he gets six.

2981
02:34:19,020 --> 02:34:20,100
 That's too much for Gibbs.

2982
02:34:21,520 --> 02:34:22,700
 And enough to move the chains.

2983
02:34:22,740 --> 02:34:24,000
 That was actually a 10-yard gain.

2984
02:34:26,520 --> 02:34:30,360
 We're about 10 rows up maybe here, so it's not always easy to judge,

2985
02:34:30,420 --> 02:34:33,000
 but it's going to be at the 38-yard line after the 10-yard gain.

2986
02:34:35,220 --> 02:34:37,960
 Davis still out, so they'll leave Gibbs in at tailback.

2987
02:34:40,140 --> 02:34:41,440
 8.57 and counting.

2988
02:34:41,600 --> 02:34:42,420
 Tied at 14.

2989
02:34:42,840 --> 02:34:45,000
 This is where your Florence tied at 14.

2990
02:34:45,540 --> 02:34:46,640
 Gibbs back there at tailback.

2991
02:34:46,760 --> 02:34:49,080
 You've got to be alert to the pass player, the quarterback run.

2992
02:34:53,700 --> 02:34:54,780
 Gibbs up the middle.

2993
02:34:54,940 --> 02:34:55,820
 Has a little space.

2994
02:34:55,900 --> 02:34:58,040
 Got to the 40 and hit down around the 39.

2995
02:34:58,680 --> 02:35:02,480
 Give him about – or 34, excuse me.

2996
02:35:02,540 --> 02:35:03,640
 Gain of about three or four.

2997
02:35:04,340 --> 02:35:05,840
 Second down and six, we'll call it.

2998
02:35:15,220 --> 02:35:22,120
 And Aiden, actually, KJ, is playing HVAC right now, getting a little rest.

2999
02:35:22,760 --> 02:35:23,680
 And he is right now.

3000
02:35:23,740 --> 02:35:25,460
 He's back in, playing that HVAC position.

3001
02:35:25,680 --> 02:35:30,480
 So, you better be alert to him getting the ball some other way, maybe in the passing game.

3002
02:35:31,160 --> 02:35:31,960
 Going to leave it again.

3003
02:35:32,080 --> 02:35:32,220
 Nope.

3004
02:35:32,280 --> 02:35:32,720
 Looked a throw.

3005
02:35:32,800 --> 02:35:33,660
 They wanted to throw it to him.

3006
02:35:33,700 --> 02:35:36,580
 The quarterback, Charmin, wants to run it, and he's hit and spins far to the 28.

3007
02:35:38,160 --> 02:35:41,840
 The Austin fans thought it might have been a face mask, but he grabbed him from behind.

3008
02:35:43,060 --> 02:35:46,000
 But that's going to be enough to move the chains again, I do believe.

3009
02:35:47,140 --> 02:35:47,800
 First down.

3010
02:35:48,360 --> 02:35:49,900
 Ball all the way down to the 28-yard line.

3011
02:35:49,980 --> 02:35:51,500
 Jeffrey Jones on the sideline.

3012
02:35:52,020 --> 02:35:52,920
 It's Falcon defense.

3013
02:35:53,160 --> 02:35:57,040
 It's got to get some penetration if they're going to stop this offensive of Austin.

3014
02:35:57,100 --> 02:36:00,000
 If we've got to stop, you've got to be stopping Gibbs.

3015
02:36:00,100 --> 02:36:01,280
 You've got to stop Gibbs no matter what.

3016
02:36:01,340 --> 02:36:04,140
 Because when Davis is running, he's ten times tougher to stop.

3017
02:36:04,460 --> 02:36:06,880
 So, you know, we're going to have to mix it up a little bit.

3018
02:36:06,920 --> 02:36:08,160
 We're going to have to bring a little bit more pressure.

3019
02:36:08,260 --> 02:36:09,320
 We're going to have to wrap up.

3020
02:36:12,000 --> 02:36:13,600
 And off to Davis, off the left.

3021
02:36:13,700 --> 02:36:14,800
 He's hit at the line of scrimmage.

3022
02:36:14,880 --> 02:36:15,700
 Only a gain of one or two.

3023
02:36:15,780 --> 02:36:17,040
 Better job of the defense there.

3024
02:36:17,500 --> 02:36:21,300
 Jayden White and others coming up off the ground, including ninth pride, I think, that time.

3025
02:36:21,620 --> 02:36:24,000
 Only a gain of about one second down and nine.

3026
02:36:25,880 --> 02:36:28,560
 This Falcon defense is going to have to just bow up.

3027
02:36:32,300 --> 02:36:35,360
 Watch here maybe for the pass play, too, on the second down and nine.

3028
02:36:36,460 --> 02:36:38,740
 Jeremy Perkins taking his time getting a play in here.

3029
02:36:39,920 --> 02:36:44,400
 He's in four-down territory, though, and he's milked this clock down for seven minutes, or five minutes.

3030
02:36:45,200 --> 02:36:47,220
 Hit in the line of scrimmage, hit at the back, still looking.

3031
02:36:47,340 --> 02:36:48,720
 Davis trying to get outside.

3032
02:36:49,080 --> 02:36:50,540
 Gets away from one, trying to get away.

3033
02:36:50,540 --> 02:36:51,480
 Can't get away from two.

3034
02:36:51,860 --> 02:36:52,880
 Brought down at the 28.

3035
02:36:53,140 --> 02:36:54,000
 He'll lose yardage.

3036
02:36:54,680 --> 02:36:56,860
 That time, the Falcons did a much better job, Mike.

3037
02:36:57,280 --> 02:36:59,140
 Yes, that was a great job by the Falcons.

3038
02:36:59,300 --> 02:37:04,480
 Otis, his trunk, came up, and he made the initial hit, and Davis almost squeaked away,

3039
02:37:04,600 --> 02:37:07,620
 but Otis held on for dear life and took him down by the ankles.

3040
02:37:07,960 --> 02:37:12,240
 We saw the screen pass earlier to Davis, and it was really well run.

3041
02:37:12,380 --> 02:37:14,260
 I wouldn't be surprised to see him get it again.

3042
02:37:15,660 --> 02:37:17,980
 The 625 mark, tied at 14.

3043
02:37:18,120 --> 02:37:19,040
 Four-down territory.

3044
02:37:19,600 --> 02:37:20,480
 Third and 11.

3045
02:37:20,480 --> 02:37:21,880
 Falcon fans on their feet.

3046
02:37:22,320 --> 02:37:23,660
 Two wide outs to the left.

3047
02:37:24,660 --> 02:37:26,360
 Jarman looks to roll to the left and throw.

3048
02:37:26,520 --> 02:37:27,980
 Wants to get a pass off if he can.

3049
02:37:28,280 --> 02:37:29,400
 Now he has time to run it.

3050
02:37:29,440 --> 02:37:29,960
 Has room.

3051
02:37:30,220 --> 02:37:31,700
 Up to the 20-yard line and hit.

3052
02:37:31,920 --> 02:37:32,100
 I thought.

3053
02:37:32,980 --> 02:37:34,140
 And they get a flag, do they?

3054
02:37:34,140 --> 02:37:35,380
 They got the flag.

3055
02:37:35,380 --> 02:37:35,980
 They got the flag.

3056
02:37:35,980 --> 02:37:36,640
 And they deserved it.

3057
02:37:36,720 --> 02:37:38,680
 It was really way out of bounds.

3058
02:37:39,480 --> 02:37:45,360
 So, Florence gives away 15 on the late hit on the Austin sideline, and that was a tough one

3059
02:37:45,360 --> 02:37:47,220
 right there, undisciplined right there by Florence.

3060
02:37:47,360 --> 02:37:50,760
 This is the stuff that will come back to bite you.

3061
02:37:50,760 --> 02:37:55,680
 We have been undisciplined in this second quarter and beyond so far.

3062
02:37:56,280 --> 02:37:57,960
 Jeffrey, would they have had a first down anyway?

3063
02:37:58,300 --> 02:37:58,700
 No.

3064
02:37:59,220 --> 02:38:01,080
 He would have been short at the 20-yard line.

3065
02:38:01,960 --> 02:38:06,000
 But now it will move it all the way down to the 10 and maybe even side of the 10.

3066
02:38:06,080 --> 02:38:06,520
 Let's see.

3067
02:38:07,560 --> 02:38:10,680
 Right at the 10-yard line, it should be first and goal for Austin.

3068
02:38:11,880 --> 02:38:13,140
 And it was the right call.

3069
02:38:13,920 --> 02:38:17,020
 You could see the field opened up on that side.

3070
02:38:18,580 --> 02:38:20,580
 And the quarterback took off running with it.

3071
02:38:22,020 --> 02:38:25,240
 Donovan Jarman did what he was supposed to do.

3072
02:38:30,120 --> 02:38:35,900
 First and goal for the Black Bears at the 10.

3073
02:38:37,560 --> 02:38:38,600
 High snap.

3074
02:38:38,740 --> 02:38:40,100
 Quarterback's going to keep it, and that's Davis.

3075
02:38:40,420 --> 02:38:41,800
 He scoots far to the five.

3076
02:38:42,240 --> 02:38:45,980
 So, he runs that wildcat formation and gets five yards.

3077
02:38:47,840 --> 02:38:50,480
 Florence starting to bring in some more help up front.

3078
02:38:50,660 --> 02:38:53,500
 Petway will come in, trying to get some beef in, extra guy up front.

3079
02:38:54,300 --> 02:38:57,720
 Second goal to the five with 5.53 to go here in the third quarter.

3080
02:38:58,440 --> 02:39:00,720
 Austin has taken the ball and marched it down the field.

3081
02:39:02,340 --> 02:39:04,860
 Davis is staying in at quarterback with Gibbs at tailback.

3082
02:39:06,080 --> 02:39:08,140
 On this second down goal, play from five.

3083
02:39:09,480 --> 02:39:09,600
 Davis.

3084
02:39:12,560 --> 02:39:13,940
 From behind and knocked down.

3085
02:39:14,220 --> 02:39:15,600
 Great tackle right there.

3086
02:39:15,920 --> 02:39:18,480
 That was Martinez who come from behind and brings him down.

3087
02:39:19,900 --> 02:39:22,880
 And that's how you have to have Davis running.

3088
02:39:23,000 --> 02:39:24,960
 You have to keep him bouncing side to side.

3089
02:39:25,500 --> 02:39:27,160
 Never let him get his shoulders turned square.

3090
02:39:29,900 --> 02:39:33,840
 5-18 and counting in the third quarter.

3091
02:39:34,740 --> 02:39:35,580
 Third and goal.

3092
02:39:35,700 --> 02:39:37,220
 Jeffrey, where is the ball now?

3093
02:39:37,340 --> 02:39:37,760
 Is it seven?

3094
02:39:38,200 --> 02:39:39,980
 Yes, inside the seven.

3095
02:39:40,080 --> 02:39:40,840
 Seven-yard line.

3096
02:39:40,960 --> 02:39:41,660
 Third and goal.

3097
02:39:43,000 --> 02:39:43,500
 Check that.

3098
02:39:44,940 --> 02:39:46,140
 Yep, third and goal at the seven.

3099
02:39:46,340 --> 02:39:47,020
 And they'll bring back.

3100
02:39:48,100 --> 02:39:50,140
 Again, watch Davis throwing the ball here.

3101
02:39:50,200 --> 02:39:50,960
 He can't do that.

3102
02:39:51,520 --> 02:39:53,000
 Davis gets it, rolls to the right.

3103
02:39:53,120 --> 02:39:54,000
 Look, it has room.

3104
02:39:54,120 --> 02:39:54,640
 Can't get away.

3105
02:39:54,720 --> 02:39:55,640
 Knocked down at the five.

3106
02:39:56,300 --> 02:40:00,360
 Again, Pettway making a play there along with another defense lineman who's slow.

3107
02:40:06,500 --> 02:40:11,100
 Extras and Austin got away with two extracurricular hits.

3108
02:40:11,240 --> 02:40:12,480
 They're going to have to put 14 out.

3109
02:40:13,700 --> 02:40:15,440
 Sales over there was getting into it.

3110
02:40:15,500 --> 02:40:16,520
 Florence got to give him credit.

3111
02:40:16,620 --> 02:40:17,320
 He backed away.

3112
02:40:17,940 --> 02:40:20,260
 And now field goal time for the Black Bears.

3113
02:40:22,540 --> 02:40:25,720
 So they'll go for a field goal with Oscar Delgado, the senior.

3114
02:40:25,940 --> 02:40:29,720
 It will be a 22-yarder into the win, but it's dead center.

3115
02:40:32,200 --> 02:40:33,880
 Good snap, good hold, kick.

3116
02:40:34,160 --> 02:40:36,660
 And before the snap, before the snap, a whistle.

3117
02:40:37,140 --> 02:40:37,400
 Flag.

3118
02:40:37,580 --> 02:40:38,560
 And a flag on the play.

3119
02:40:38,620 --> 02:40:43,700
 And I believe it's going to be against the Black Bears who were fault started.

3120
02:40:44,160 --> 02:40:45,940
 And that's going to move it back five yards.

3121
02:40:48,940 --> 02:40:50,420
 4-13 on the clock.

3122
02:40:50,680 --> 02:40:51,400
 Tied at 14.

3123
02:40:52,500 --> 02:40:53,680
 They're falling apart a little.

3124
02:40:54,960 --> 02:40:58,700
 Their offensive line is pretty much throwing haymakers at each other.

3125
02:41:00,080 --> 02:41:01,560
 There's still a flag on the field.

3126
02:41:01,720 --> 02:41:03,180
 Now the backers will get it.

3127
02:41:03,920 --> 02:41:04,920
 The umpire will, excuse me.

3128
02:41:05,220 --> 02:41:07,820
 So now it'll make it a harder field goal, 27-yard.

3129
02:41:08,920 --> 02:41:10,040
 Good snap, good hold.

3130
02:41:10,120 --> 02:41:10,680
 This time the kick.

3131
02:41:10,780 --> 02:41:11,100
 Block!

3132
02:41:11,440 --> 02:41:12,100
 It's blocked!

3133
02:41:12,480 --> 02:41:14,340
 It can be picked up on the floor, and they do.

3134
02:41:14,600 --> 02:41:15,560
 But they'll be doing it.

3135
02:41:15,560 --> 02:41:16,280
 It's good to see.

3136
02:41:16,280 --> 02:41:17,120
 It's good to see.

3137
02:41:24,960 --> 02:41:33,120
 But it'll be Florence's ball after the blocked field goal.

3138
02:41:33,480 --> 02:41:34,800
 It was blocked up the middle.

3139
02:41:35,160 --> 02:41:36,400
 I didn't see who got it.

3140
02:41:36,660 --> 02:41:37,440
 It don't matter.

3141
02:41:37,740 --> 02:41:40,140
 It's Florence's ball after the blocked kick.

3142
02:41:41,020 --> 02:41:43,480
 What a play, Mike, by that Florence team.

3143
02:41:43,940 --> 02:41:45,440
 The bend, but not break.

3144
02:41:46,280 --> 02:41:52,340
 You know, that penalty really, really knocked things off the board there for Austin.

3145
02:41:52,340 --> 02:41:54,940
 They had that field goal kicked, and it was good.

3146
02:41:55,440 --> 02:41:57,960
 That second opportunity, a little bit more difficult.

3147
02:41:58,460 --> 02:42:03,220
 He had to get a little more drive, and it kept it lower right to the Falcon defense.

3148
02:42:03,480 --> 02:42:06,220
 Kayon Williams in at tailback.

3149
02:42:06,740 --> 02:42:10,520
 He'll stand in that pistol formation behind the shotgun quarterback.

3150
02:42:11,660 --> 02:42:13,220
 Mahan against a four-man front.

3151
02:42:13,400 --> 02:42:14,180
 Nine in the box.

3152
02:42:14,820 --> 02:42:16,160
 Kayon off the left side.

3153
02:42:16,260 --> 02:42:18,540
 Got across the 35, to the 30, to the 25.

3154
02:42:18,540 --> 02:42:20,760
 Break the tackle and finally brought down at the 23.

3155
02:42:23,380 --> 02:42:26,340
 Move the change for Florence, and Kayon is back.

3156
02:42:28,000 --> 02:42:29,940
 It's getting real chippy down there.

3157
02:42:30,060 --> 02:42:33,060
 After every play, there's players in each other's face.

3158
02:42:33,560 --> 02:42:36,560
 It's going to be a battle to the very end.

3159
02:42:39,200 --> 02:42:40,960
 First down at the 23.

3160
02:42:42,960 --> 02:42:44,040
 We're in behind them.

3161
02:42:47,580 --> 02:42:48,680
 Green wide right.

3162
02:42:49,480 --> 02:42:50,420
 Goal three wide left.

3163
02:42:50,580 --> 02:42:51,960
 One back is Kayon Williams.

3164
02:42:52,100 --> 02:42:54,500
 Now two tight ends come back to the left.

3165
02:42:55,160 --> 02:42:56,220
 Blank can get there, too.

3166
02:42:56,520 --> 02:42:57,000
 Left side.

3167
02:42:57,080 --> 02:42:57,760
 Get it to Williams.

3168
02:42:58,100 --> 02:42:59,100
 He hit at the line of scrimmage.

3169
02:42:59,160 --> 02:43:00,300
 He can push as far to the 20.

3170
02:43:00,420 --> 02:43:01,180
 Give him about a yard.

3171
02:43:03,000 --> 02:43:05,520
 Good job by that Austin defense coming up right there.

3172
02:43:05,820 --> 02:43:08,600
 That was Landon Baker, one of their leading tacklers, making a play.

3173
02:43:09,320 --> 02:43:10,360
 Brings up second down.

3174
02:43:10,940 --> 02:43:13,360
 And a rare case of good sportsmanship.

3175
02:43:13,600 --> 02:43:18,280
 Both sides trying to help each other up and miss the hand up,

3176
02:43:18,320 --> 02:43:19,520
 but when they got up, they hugged.

3177
02:43:19,860 --> 02:43:21,000
 Second down and eight.

3178
02:43:24,120 --> 02:43:28,500
 Mitch Boyd and Kirkland Blank, the tight end at HVAC, doing a great job.

3179
02:43:28,940 --> 02:43:30,000
 Two-fifty to go in the third.

3180
02:43:30,120 --> 02:43:30,840
 Tied at 14.

3181
02:43:31,740 --> 02:43:35,260
 After the blocked field goal in return, they've got it inside Austin territory.

3182
02:43:36,200 --> 02:43:38,920
 Kayon is still in that pistol formation behind the quarterback, Mahan.

3183
02:43:39,500 --> 02:43:40,360
 Eight in the box.

3184
02:43:40,600 --> 02:43:41,620
 Watch for Gouldsby here.

3185
02:43:43,040 --> 02:43:43,280
 Nope.

3186
02:43:43,340 --> 02:43:44,360
 Going to be Williams.

3187
02:43:44,480 --> 02:43:45,160
 Cuts back left.

3188
02:43:45,460 --> 02:43:46,220
 Getting on his feet.

3189
02:43:46,400 --> 02:43:48,280
 Spins forward and he gets knocked down at the 15.

3190
02:43:49,560 --> 02:43:50,840
 He gets about four.

3191
02:43:50,840 --> 02:43:54,360
 And it brings up third and a short three.

3192
02:43:56,160 --> 02:43:56,680
 Got it.

3193
02:43:56,780 --> 02:43:58,300
 Got to have points on this one, though.

3194
02:43:58,640 --> 02:44:04,160
 Leading up into the fourth quarter, we'll be into the win that entire fourth quarter coming up.

3195
02:44:04,320 --> 02:44:05,660
 Got to, got to put on points.

3196
02:44:06,700 --> 02:44:07,960
 Seven, please.

3197
02:44:07,960 --> 02:44:09,020
 Seven, not three, yeah.

3198
02:44:09,160 --> 02:44:10,180
 I think you go for it.

3199
02:44:10,180 --> 02:44:11,020
 I think it's four down territory.

3200
02:44:11,140 --> 02:44:12,240
 I don't think you keep the field goal.

3201
02:44:14,320 --> 02:44:15,120
 Eye formation.

3202
02:44:15,260 --> 02:44:16,220
 The hot of the fullback.

3203
02:44:16,740 --> 02:44:18,320
 Williams, the tailback.

3204
02:44:19,940 --> 02:44:21,100
 Going to leave it with Williams.

3205
02:44:21,280 --> 02:44:22,100
 Looking up the middle.

3206
02:44:22,240 --> 02:44:22,840
 Pushes forward.

3207
02:44:22,920 --> 02:44:23,500
 He didn't get it.

3208
02:44:23,560 --> 02:44:24,540
 He's knocked down at the 15.

3209
02:44:25,520 --> 02:44:26,560
 He's going to get a yard.

3210
02:44:26,660 --> 02:44:29,460
 And he's going to be fourth and two in decision time for Kenny Morrison.

3211
02:44:30,780 --> 02:44:32,060
 And he's going to kick the field goal.

3212
02:44:32,720 --> 02:44:34,040
 He's going to put points on there.

3213
02:44:36,960 --> 02:44:38,560
 He'll have the win behind him.

3214
02:44:41,020 --> 02:44:41,840
 I don't like it.

3215
02:44:43,340 --> 02:44:45,620
 I wish we'd have gone for it, but we didn't get anything.

3216
02:44:45,700 --> 02:44:46,740
 And it was fourth and three.

3217
02:44:46,740 --> 02:44:48,900
 Went right up into the teeth of the defense there.

3218
02:44:49,580 --> 02:44:51,100
 It's probably the right call.

3219
02:44:52,300 --> 02:44:53,920
 The ball is from the left hash.

3220
02:44:53,980 --> 02:44:56,820
 I agree with the weather the way it is, but you've got to get points here.

3221
02:44:58,620 --> 02:45:00,460
 Well, they're selling out to come after it, too.

3222
02:45:02,740 --> 02:45:03,720
 Mahan is the holder.

3223
02:45:03,880 --> 02:45:04,360
 Remember that.

3224
02:45:05,520 --> 02:45:06,520
 Got the hole down.

3225
02:45:06,920 --> 02:45:07,660
 Kick on the way.

3226
02:45:07,740 --> 02:45:08,660
 It's got distance.

3227
02:45:08,820 --> 02:45:10,120
 And the kick is good.

3228
02:45:11,920 --> 02:45:13,920
 Greenhaw drills it through the uprights.

3229
02:45:13,920 --> 02:45:17,300
 And Florence takes a 17-14 lead with 109 to go in the third.

3230
02:45:17,640 --> 02:45:18,560
 This is Falcon football.

3231
02:45:18,740 --> 02:45:19,380
 We're back in 30.

3232
02:45:20,660 --> 02:45:22,600
 Getting the kids to practice on time.

3233
02:45:23,020 --> 02:45:24,820
 Remembering if it's your day to bring snacks.

3234
02:45:25,300 --> 02:45:27,080
 Making it to the game with a clean jersey.

3235
02:45:27,560 --> 02:45:29,940
 Why are simple things sometimes so complicated?

3236
02:45:30,420 --> 02:45:33,200
 Thankfully, with auto owners, insurance doesn't have to be one of them.

3237
02:45:33,560 --> 02:45:36,520
 Auto owners works with independent agents who answer when you call.

3238
02:45:36,520 --> 02:45:38,560
 So you can worry about more important things.

3239
02:45:38,940 --> 02:45:41,700
 Like whether your kid is going to run toward first or third base.

3240
02:45:42,300 --> 02:45:42,580
 That's it.

3241
02:45:43,920 --> 02:45:47,220
 Florence, call Tyson Johnson, Luke Brown, Kirby Allen, Victoria Devaney,

3242
02:45:47,340 --> 02:45:50,480
 Brant Bishop, or Daniel Box with Henniger Johnson and Layton Insurance Agency.

3243
02:45:50,880 --> 02:45:53,260
 256-764-8682.

3244
02:45:57,740 --> 02:46:01,360
 109 to go here in the third quarter.

3245
02:46:01,500 --> 02:46:04,260
 And Florence takes their first lead since early in the first quarter.

3246
02:46:04,360 --> 02:46:05,540
 They lead at 17-14.

3247
02:46:06,480 --> 02:46:09,700
 After the 33-yard field goal from Greenhaw, let's get that last drive.

3248
02:46:10,100 --> 02:46:10,860
 Kevin was quick.

3249
02:46:10,980 --> 02:46:12,720
 Two minutes, 46 seconds.

3250
02:46:12,720 --> 02:46:14,580
 It's five plays, 19 yards.

3251
02:46:16,860 --> 02:46:19,560
 Greenhaw's kick is going to drive all the way back to the end zone.

3252
02:46:22,680 --> 02:46:24,020
 Hit right at the 50s.

3253
02:46:24,100 --> 02:46:25,460
 Gets away and gets to the 25.

3254
02:46:25,840 --> 02:46:27,480
 And finally brought out of bounds by Burski.

3255
02:46:28,820 --> 02:46:32,300
 And that's where the Black Bears will have it there on the return by Hampton.

3256
02:46:33,780 --> 02:46:38,420
 But the big play on that whole thing was the block field goal by Florence on one end.

3257
02:46:38,860 --> 02:46:41,700
 It was Petty Poole, I believe, who returned it about 45 yards.

3258
02:46:42,120 --> 02:46:47,260
 Honestly, Mike, Florence had a chance maybe to scoop that field goal earlier, and it took a time.

3259
02:46:47,520 --> 02:46:48,920
 If they'd scooped it earlier, they'd have scored.

3260
02:46:49,120 --> 02:46:51,720
 That's one of those situations that happens so infrequently.

3261
02:46:51,940 --> 02:46:54,940
 Sometimes the players are thinking way too much on the field.

3262
02:46:55,180 --> 02:47:00,320
 But luckily, they did scoop it up and flip the field so that we could turn points out of that play.

3263
02:47:01,180 --> 02:47:03,680
 First and 10 for the Black Bears with 103 to go.

3264
02:47:03,860 --> 02:47:08,480
 And one thing about it is that the wind is still ripping up.

3265
02:47:08,560 --> 02:47:11,760
 It's not as bad, maybe, I hate to say that, as it was.

3266
02:47:12,060 --> 02:47:13,520
 No, I feel like that's accurate.

3267
02:47:13,700 --> 02:47:15,880
 Yeah, I think it's died down a tad.

3268
02:47:16,580 --> 02:47:18,200
 So it might not be as big of that.

3269
02:47:18,320 --> 02:47:20,080
 It's only blustery, not Gale Forrest.

3270
02:47:20,140 --> 02:47:21,120
 Davis up the middle.

3271
02:47:21,640 --> 02:47:22,580
 Hit at the 25.

3272
02:47:22,740 --> 02:47:23,880
 Pushes far to the 30.

3273
02:47:24,260 --> 02:47:26,140
 He's got about eight before he's brought down.

3274
02:47:26,500 --> 02:47:28,540
 It took about five minutes to push him back.

3275
02:47:28,620 --> 02:47:29,400
 He is a load.

3276
02:47:30,420 --> 02:47:34,980
 Kenny Morrison told me before this week, he said, I'm so worried about this running back.

3277
02:47:35,040 --> 02:47:36,400
 He is as good as we'll see.

3278
02:47:37,540 --> 02:47:39,680
 He's just a different type of back, isn't he, Mike?

3279
02:47:40,000 --> 02:47:41,000
 He certainly is.

3280
02:47:41,080 --> 02:47:47,180
 I mean, we saw the kid from Jasper who's got all the accolades and all the things coming his way.

3281
02:47:47,720 --> 02:47:49,560
 But this kid's just a different breed.

3282
02:47:49,900 --> 02:47:51,900
 He's just straight down your throat.

3283
02:47:52,460 --> 02:47:53,600
 You know, stop me if you can.

3284
02:47:53,720 --> 02:47:56,420
 It's a challenge each and every touch.

3285
02:47:56,940 --> 02:47:58,580
 Jeremy Perkins running that clock down.

3286
02:47:58,680 --> 02:48:00,640
 He wants to get to the fourth quarter and have the win.

3287
02:48:01,620 --> 02:48:02,800
 Second down and two play.

3288
02:48:03,220 --> 02:48:05,300
 Going to leave it with Davis up the left side.

3289
02:48:05,380 --> 02:48:07,180
 And he hits the line of scrimmage.

3290
02:48:07,260 --> 02:48:09,920
 He's going to get the first down at the 35.

3291
02:48:12,900 --> 02:48:16,920
 And that is, they'll move the chains now.

3292
02:48:17,000 --> 02:48:17,920
 Very generous spot.

3293
02:48:18,980 --> 02:48:20,880
 I'm getting used to the spots now.

3294
02:48:20,880 --> 02:48:22,580
 If it's anywhere close, they're going to get it.

3295
02:48:24,540 --> 02:48:25,360
 First and 10.

3296
02:48:25,800 --> 02:48:27,660
 And the blackberries won't snap it again.

3297
02:48:28,140 --> 02:48:29,200
 Three quarters in the books.

3298
02:48:29,360 --> 02:48:30,780
 Florence leads it 17-14.

3299
02:48:31,360 --> 02:48:32,840
 Falcon football back in one minute.

3300
02:48:34,180 --> 02:48:35,840
 Craving authentic Mexican flavor?

3301
02:48:36,360 --> 02:48:38,740
 Dive into delicious in Hugo's Mexican Restaurant.

3302
02:48:38,940 --> 02:48:41,900
 4160 Florence Boulevard at the entrance to Kendall Garden.

3303
02:48:43,420 --> 02:48:46,540
 Start off with fresh tortilla chips and Hugo's famous cheese dip.

3304
02:48:46,540 --> 02:48:50,700
 Then enjoy mouth-watering tacos, enchiladas, and of course, Hugo's famous fajitas and more.

3305
02:48:51,020 --> 02:48:52,220
 All in a vibrant atmosphere.

3306
02:48:52,840 --> 02:48:55,640
 We're open Tuesday through Thursday and Sunday until 9 p.m.

3307
02:48:55,640 --> 02:48:57,780
 And until 9.30 on Friday and Saturday.

3308
02:48:58,340 --> 02:48:59,380
 Hugo's Mexican Restaurant.

3309
02:48:59,580 --> 02:49:00,840
 Where every meal is a fiesta.

3310
02:49:01,340 --> 02:49:05,040
 See you soon at 4160 Florence Boulevard at the entrance to Kendall Gardens.

3311
02:49:06,040 --> 02:49:07,960
 East Lawrence leading Danville 21-0.

3312
02:49:08,100 --> 02:49:09,620
 Hartzell leads Athens 10-7.

3313
02:49:09,760 --> 02:49:11,460
 Wilson leads Rogers 27-0.

3314
02:49:11,580 --> 02:49:13,700
 Coosa leading Lindsay Lane 28-0.

3315
02:49:13,840 --> 02:49:15,640
 Haleyville leads Winfield 35-14.

3316
02:49:15,820 --> 02:49:17,440
 Russellville leads Decatur 21-0.

3317
02:49:17,860 --> 02:49:19,880
 Lawrence County leading West Point 15-14.

3318
02:49:20,080 --> 02:49:21,660
 Hatton leads Curry 21-3.

3319
02:49:22,080 --> 02:49:24,120
 Addison leads Red Bay 29-6.

3320
02:49:24,260 --> 02:49:26,100
 Priceville leads Ardmore 27-7.

3321
02:49:26,480 --> 02:49:28,460
 Bell Green leads Waterloo 28-6.

3322
02:49:28,860 --> 02:49:30,740
 And the Guardians and Rays postponed.

3323
02:49:33,620 --> 02:49:36,840
 Here at Austin High School, definitely not postponed here.

3324
02:49:37,400 --> 02:49:43,600
 Wind and cold front, cold weather, temperature dropping, and Florence and Austin having a dandy.

3325
02:49:44,080 --> 02:49:45,640
 Florence leads it 17-14.

3326
02:49:45,820 --> 02:49:48,400
 After Florence was trailed 14-7 in the first half.

3327
02:49:48,840 --> 02:49:52,640
 Scoring on the final play of the half on a touchdown pass from Mayan to Goolsby.

3328
02:49:53,140 --> 02:49:54,500
 Extra point by Greenhall Good.

3329
02:49:54,960 --> 02:49:57,960
 And Florence gets the only score in the third quarter.

3330
02:49:58,060 --> 02:50:01,580
 They block a field goal of Austin, and Greenhall answers with a field goal.

3331
02:50:01,580 --> 02:50:06,360
 But Austin will have the win behind their back, first and 10, at their own 35-yard line.

3332
02:50:06,660 --> 02:50:11,560
 When we get underway in just a minute, Kenny Morrison was holding court with the white hat referee.

3333
02:50:16,180 --> 02:50:17,920
 Still not sure what he was talking about.

3334
02:50:19,940 --> 02:50:21,080
 We'll find out later.

3335
02:50:21,900 --> 02:50:26,260
 At the 35, one back, Davis to the left of the quarterback, Jarman.

3336
02:50:26,440 --> 02:50:29,220
 He wants to pass, looking to the left, wants to throw across the middle.

3337
02:50:29,520 --> 02:50:31,400
 And the man is up there and almost intercepted.

3338
02:50:31,780 --> 02:50:34,320
 Penny Poole went up there with him, trying to hit Gibbs.

3339
02:50:34,400 --> 02:50:37,680
 And Penny Poole almost pulled that ball away, incomplete, second down.

3340
02:50:37,880 --> 02:50:39,140
 He almost got a flag, too.

3341
02:50:39,200 --> 02:50:41,380
 He was a little early on that one, in my estimation.

3342
02:50:41,560 --> 02:50:45,060
 But no call on that play, so we live to play another down.

3343
02:50:45,280 --> 02:50:50,400
 The one thing, though, you see immediately, as soon as Austin got the win, the passing started happening.

3344
02:50:50,400 --> 02:50:54,400
 So, they're going to look to stretch his defense a little bit to get their run game a little more running room.

3345
02:50:55,020 --> 02:50:56,960
 Second down and 10 for the Black Bears.

3346
02:50:57,080 --> 02:51:03,940
 They'll have two wide outs to the right, including Sale out there, Sales and Jones.

3347
02:51:04,260 --> 02:51:05,520
 To the left will be Nike.

3348
02:51:06,040 --> 02:51:07,720
 Falcons show blitz back out of it.

3349
02:51:08,080 --> 02:51:11,660
 Going to leave it with Davis up the middle, bouncing hit, but he drags the defender down.

3350
02:51:11,900 --> 02:51:12,820
 Still dragging the defender.

3351
02:51:12,980 --> 02:51:14,640
 Finally gets brought down around the 42.

3352
02:51:15,140 --> 02:51:19,740
 He'll get about eight, depending on what the official marks.

3353
02:51:19,860 --> 02:51:21,360
 It looked like he got down at the 42.

3354
02:51:21,560 --> 02:51:22,480
 They give him the 43.

3355
02:51:22,620 --> 02:51:23,560
 He'll be third and one.

3356
02:51:25,980 --> 02:51:27,360
 Am I the only one saying that?

3357
02:51:27,740 --> 02:51:29,740
 I've, we're.

3358
02:51:29,820 --> 02:51:31,460
 We just talked about it going the other way.

3359
02:51:31,820 --> 02:51:33,920
 He is consistently inconsistent.

3360
02:51:34,780 --> 02:51:35,980
 I've, yeah.

3361
02:51:36,540 --> 02:51:41,560
 I'm just not going to rag on the officials all the time, but anytime you come here, it's always an adventure.

3362
02:51:42,000 --> 02:51:44,800
 Third and a long one for the Black Bears at the 43.

3363
02:51:46,640 --> 02:51:47,940
 Lawrence has five in the box.

3364
02:51:48,040 --> 02:51:48,500
 Now, seven.

3365
02:51:48,820 --> 02:51:50,460
 Going to leave it with Davis off the right side.

3366
02:51:50,500 --> 02:51:51,320
 He tries to cut it up.

3367
02:51:51,380 --> 02:51:52,560
 He's hit, and he's not going to get it.

3368
02:51:53,000 --> 02:51:55,800
 He was hit at the line of scrimmage, and Lawrence says fourth down.

3369
02:51:56,800 --> 02:52:01,540
 Again, depending on the mark, he never got to the 44, and he keeps moving up to the left.

3370
02:52:02,180 --> 02:52:04,720
 I mean, he gave him a yard to carry, and he didn't even get there.

3371
02:52:04,960 --> 02:52:07,080
 This is the Winston-Salem wide guy.

3372
02:52:07,080 --> 02:52:07,820
 It's unbelievable.

3373
02:52:08,320 --> 02:52:09,140
 It's unbelievable.

3374
02:52:09,240 --> 02:52:10,860
 He gave him a yard and went even close.

3375
02:52:14,260 --> 02:52:21,160
 Kevin, I don't know if you've noticed, but the line judge on the Austin side is not spotting the ball at all.

3376
02:52:21,220 --> 02:52:21,600
 At all.

3377
02:52:21,680 --> 02:52:22,680
 He just stands aware of it.

3378
02:52:22,680 --> 02:52:23,140
 I've never seen that.

3379
02:52:23,560 --> 02:52:24,360
 It's unreal.

3380
02:52:24,620 --> 02:52:25,920
 Fourth and a yard to go.

3381
02:52:26,680 --> 02:52:27,960
 They have to get to the 45.

3382
02:52:28,180 --> 02:52:30,320
 The Falcon crowd being deplored to get on his feet.

3383
02:52:31,920 --> 02:52:33,560
 All right, Jayden Wyatt, let's do work.

3384
02:52:35,520 --> 02:52:38,540
 Going to give it to Davis off the right side, use his feet, trying to get out.

3385
02:52:38,580 --> 02:52:43,660
 He does to the 45, to the 50, to the 45, and gets down to the 40-yard line before he's knocked out of bounds.

3386
02:52:44,240 --> 02:52:45,500
 No flags on the play.

3387
02:52:45,900 --> 02:52:47,320
 They crushed the right side.

3388
02:52:50,120 --> 02:52:51,300
 And Abrea first down.

3389
02:52:52,340 --> 02:52:54,260
 Kenny Morrison said, you've got to be kidding me.

3390
02:52:54,300 --> 02:52:55,620
 It was a hold on that right side.

3391
02:52:55,620 --> 02:52:57,560
 He's still signaling to the white hat.

3392
02:52:57,680 --> 02:52:58,260
 It was a hold.

3393
02:52:58,580 --> 02:52:59,880
 But he's not going to get the call now.

3394
02:52:59,960 --> 02:53:02,840
 So, it'll be first and 10 for Austin at the Falcons.

3395
02:53:03,620 --> 02:53:05,860
 Well, they just keep moving the ball up to the 38-yard line.

3396
02:53:05,920 --> 02:53:07,240
 You never know where they're going to spot it.

3397
02:53:07,800 --> 02:53:08,720
 That's what we're trying to say.

3398
02:53:08,760 --> 02:53:10,920
 With 10-19 to go, Florence leading at 17-14.

3399
02:53:11,980 --> 02:53:13,040
 Davis right behind.

3400
02:53:13,260 --> 02:53:14,840
 Actually, that's Gibbs now thinking the game.

3401
02:53:15,400 --> 02:53:16,540
 Gibbs off the right side.

3402
02:53:16,620 --> 02:53:17,220
 Trying to look.

3403
02:53:17,320 --> 02:53:18,020
 Trying to bounce it.

3404
02:53:18,240 --> 02:53:18,980
 Gets by one.

3405
02:53:19,040 --> 02:53:24,600
 But he's hit around out of bounds around across the way about the 34-yard line in front of the Austin bench.

3406
02:53:24,720 --> 02:53:26,760
 Gain of about two or three.

3407
02:53:27,400 --> 02:53:33,560
 You're going to see a lot of these runs going to the right towards that Austin bench, especially later on in this game.

3408
02:53:33,600 --> 02:53:33,760
 Yep.

3409
02:53:34,220 --> 02:53:38,220
 You're not going to see any holding calls, anything else on that side of the field, I guarantee.

3410
02:53:38,420 --> 02:53:40,780
 It's an old adage that coaches know.

3411
02:53:40,900 --> 02:53:42,360
 And Jeremy Perkins is a veteran coach.

3412
02:53:42,780 --> 02:53:45,900
 You run it to your sideline, and you're probably going to get out of the call and go your way.

3413
02:53:46,860 --> 02:53:48,300
 Gosh, he got four yards on that.

3414
02:53:48,940 --> 02:53:52,240
 Second down and six at the Falcon 33.

3415
02:53:52,860 --> 02:53:53,880
 Under 10 minutes to go.

3416
02:53:53,960 --> 02:53:54,920
 Florence leads it by three.

3417
02:53:54,980 --> 02:53:56,160
 But the Black Bears are driving.

3418
02:53:56,500 --> 02:53:57,540
 Seven on the play clock.

3419
02:53:57,960 --> 02:53:59,340
 Black Bears still slow to get it out there.

3420
02:53:59,460 --> 02:54:00,540
 Gibbs is still the tailback.

3421
02:54:00,920 --> 02:54:01,800
 For Jarman, the quarterback.

3422
02:54:02,400 --> 02:54:03,580
 Jarman's going to look to pass.

3423
02:54:03,700 --> 02:54:04,480
 Looking left.

3424
02:54:04,560 --> 02:54:05,100
 Wants to throw.

3425
02:54:05,380 --> 02:54:05,940
 Left side.

3426
02:54:06,020 --> 02:54:07,820
 Got a man out there, but he overthrows everybody.

3427
02:54:08,280 --> 02:54:12,040
 He had a man open, but he overthrew him about five yards.

3428
02:54:12,100 --> 02:54:15,700
 And that time, the wind might have caused it a little bit, too, on the pass, Mike.

3429
02:54:15,840 --> 02:54:16,200
 Absolutely.

3430
02:54:16,460 --> 02:54:18,780
 He put that ball up in the jet stream for sure.

3431
02:54:19,080 --> 02:54:20,540
 That was not a line drive pass.

3432
02:54:20,580 --> 02:54:23,200
 He threw it up there, and it just sailed out of the end zone.

3433
02:54:23,280 --> 02:54:27,180
 And that just shows how impressive the pass from Mahan was earlier in the first half,

3434
02:54:27,200 --> 02:54:29,380
 in the same way to get those two big pass plays.

3435
02:54:29,560 --> 02:54:33,500
 We also had a defender who broke loose late with his hands up,

3436
02:54:33,580 --> 02:54:34,960
 and he tried to throw it over him.

3437
02:54:35,300 --> 02:54:38,520
 And I think that also caused a little extra horsepower.

3438
02:54:38,720 --> 02:54:40,560
 Davis back in the game at tailback.

3439
02:54:40,700 --> 02:54:41,420
 Third and seven.

3440
02:54:41,620 --> 02:54:43,320
 Falcon fans trying their best to help him.

3441
02:54:43,680 --> 02:54:45,140
 Luck to Davis off the right side.

3442
02:54:45,440 --> 02:54:46,020
 Cuts it up.

3443
02:54:46,140 --> 02:54:48,520
 Got the first down across the 25 down to the 20.

3444
02:54:49,500 --> 02:54:51,740
 He'll have an easy first down off that right side.

3445
02:54:51,960 --> 02:54:55,240
 And Jeffrey Jones, we haven't talked about it a whole lot except a few times,

3446
02:54:55,720 --> 02:54:59,800
 but they have a 400-pound lineman, not lying, and a 300-pound lineman on that side.

3447
02:54:59,880 --> 02:55:01,000
 And they're running right behind him.

3448
02:55:01,220 --> 02:55:06,400
 And, you know, it's been a while since I've seen one player take over a game on offense.

3449
02:55:06,400 --> 02:55:10,440
 I mean, I'd say he's got to be at least 80% of their offense, if not more.

3450
02:55:10,520 --> 02:55:11,040
 Maybe more.

3451
02:55:11,240 --> 02:55:11,420
 Yep.

3452
02:55:12,200 --> 02:55:12,880
 First and 10.

3453
02:55:13,260 --> 02:55:15,360
 Just outside the 20 at the 22-yard line.

3454
02:55:15,500 --> 02:55:18,020
 Davis will stay in at tailback to the left of the quarterback, Jarman.

3455
02:55:19,120 --> 02:55:20,520
 Need a turnover here for Florence.

3456
02:55:21,360 --> 02:55:23,480
 Davis looking to bounce out to the right.

3457
02:55:23,700 --> 02:55:26,620
 Hits it in and gets hit at the 20 as he's brought down.

3458
02:55:26,880 --> 02:55:28,500
 He had nothing, but he made something.

3459
02:55:29,100 --> 02:55:30,300
 That's the thing he does, Mike.

3460
02:55:30,380 --> 02:55:32,780
 He'll take a zero gain and make it a two-yard gain.

3461
02:55:33,180 --> 02:55:38,380
 But you could tell earlier in the game he would try and string that play out more towards the outside.

3462
02:55:38,600 --> 02:55:40,180
 He went down early on that one.

3463
02:55:40,740 --> 02:55:42,980
 He may be getting worn out with all these touches for sure.

3464
02:55:43,660 --> 02:55:45,440
 Klotzbach will come in for Martinez.

3465
02:55:46,680 --> 02:55:48,800
 Rowlett's in on the outside as well right now.

3466
02:55:49,760 --> 02:55:53,960
 Inside linebackers are Irons and Burski.

3467
02:55:54,640 --> 02:55:56,400
 This time left side trying to get it to Davis.

3468
02:55:56,580 --> 02:55:57,140
 Cuts it back.

3469
02:55:57,200 --> 02:55:57,620
 He's hit.

3470
02:55:57,880 --> 02:55:59,160
 Bounce far, but he's knocked down.

3471
02:55:59,700 --> 02:56:01,800
 Jaden White popped him pretty good at the 17.

3472
02:56:01,800 --> 02:56:05,640
 And he'll have third down and six as a two-yard gain.

3473
02:56:07,820 --> 02:56:09,420
 Jeffrey Jones, you've got a better look.

3474
02:56:09,560 --> 02:56:12,360
 What yard line do they have to get to to get the first down to Austin?

3475
02:56:12,580 --> 02:56:13,840
 They've got to get to the 12.

3476
02:56:14,280 --> 02:56:14,860
 At the 12.

3477
02:56:14,980 --> 02:56:16,040
 Just inside the 12.

3478
02:56:16,200 --> 02:56:19,040
 Florence leads it by three with 8-10 to go and counting.

3479
02:56:19,980 --> 02:56:21,540
 Three wide out for Jarman.

3480
02:56:21,960 --> 02:56:23,240
 One back in the backfield.

3481
02:56:23,360 --> 02:56:23,820
 It's Davis.

3482
02:56:24,460 --> 02:56:26,020
 Boy, if I was Florence, I'd be jumping around.

3483
02:56:26,120 --> 02:56:27,500
 He's going to give it to Davis off the right side.

3484
02:56:27,780 --> 02:56:28,620
 Cuts it up in the middle.

3485
02:56:28,880 --> 02:56:30,140
 Push forward and cross the 15.

3486
02:56:30,140 --> 02:56:31,880
 He got the first down down to around the 11.

3487
02:56:32,800 --> 02:56:34,080
 He just finds holes.

3488
02:56:34,160 --> 02:56:35,880
 And sometimes, Mike, he makes holes.

3489
02:56:36,780 --> 02:56:43,140
 Well, when you're that strong and you're going through arm tackles, you know, guys are tackling up high.

3490
02:56:43,560 --> 02:56:45,200
 I don't see too many guys going low.

3491
02:56:45,600 --> 02:56:48,280
 And so, if you're tackling up high, he's going to beat you every time.

3492
02:56:51,280 --> 02:56:56,580
 So, Austin will have it first and not goal, but first and 10 outside the 10 at the 11.

3493
02:56:58,580 --> 02:56:59,820
 Three wide outs again.

3494
02:56:59,940 --> 02:57:00,920
 That ball is not going in there.

3495
02:57:01,020 --> 02:57:04,000
 They do have a new back in Gibbs on this first down play, though.

3496
02:57:06,460 --> 02:57:08,080
 Gibbs off the left side looking.

3497
02:57:08,280 --> 02:57:09,040
 Spucks to the middle.

3498
02:57:09,320 --> 02:57:10,640
 Across the 10 down to the 5.

3499
02:57:10,700 --> 02:57:11,800
 Inside the 5 to the 4.

3500
02:57:11,920 --> 02:57:17,320
 And that Falcon defense getting leaned on too much right now with 7.25 to go here in the game.

3501
02:57:17,320 --> 02:57:19,020
 But, Florence holding on to a 3-point lead.

3502
02:57:19,080 --> 02:57:20,860
 But, Austin about to put it in the end zone.

3503
02:57:21,180 --> 02:57:22,140
 Davis coming back in.

3504
02:57:23,720 --> 02:57:24,940
 He's going to get the touch.

3505
02:57:25,180 --> 02:57:25,920
 He is.

3506
02:57:26,640 --> 02:57:27,680
 It's first and goal.

3507
02:57:27,960 --> 02:57:31,120
 Our second down and 2 to go at the 3.

3508
02:57:35,640 --> 02:57:36,900
 It's Falcon defense.

3509
02:57:37,780 --> 02:57:39,400
 Hasn't faced an offense like this.

3510
02:57:39,440 --> 02:57:40,760
 It's just pounding ground.

3511
02:57:41,480 --> 02:57:42,580
 But, that's what we're seeing.

3512
02:57:42,840 --> 02:57:45,320
 We haven't seen this since James Clemens years ago.

3513
02:57:46,980 --> 02:57:48,540
 Davis gets it to the right side.

3514
02:57:48,600 --> 02:57:49,840
 Notice the quarterback up the middle.

3515
02:57:49,940 --> 02:57:50,940
 He gets in the end zone.

3516
02:57:51,580 --> 02:57:53,420
 Jarman kept it and slipped in the end zone.

3517
02:57:53,560 --> 02:57:55,100
 Touchdown with 6.48 to go.

3518
02:57:55,520 --> 02:57:57,660
 And, Austin takes the lead 20 to 17.

3519
02:58:03,340 --> 02:58:04,840
 We saw that coming in.

3520
02:58:04,840 --> 02:58:11,220
 This just leads to this next possession pretty much being everything for the Falcons.

3521
02:58:11,980 --> 02:58:17,000
 This may come down to whoever has the ball last wins this one.

3522
02:58:17,180 --> 02:58:20,500
 With 6.48 to go, the Falcons need to take the lead here.

3523
02:58:21,140 --> 02:58:22,880
 Low snout, but the kick is up and good.

3524
02:58:23,400 --> 02:58:24,060
 New score.

3525
02:58:24,660 --> 02:58:27,000
 Austin leads it 21 to 17.

3526
02:58:27,180 --> 02:58:29,060
 Falcon football returns in 30 seconds.

3527
02:58:30,760 --> 02:58:33,840
 At First Southern Bank, we always cheer for the home team.

3528
02:58:34,220 --> 02:58:35,780
 We are homegrown with deep roots.

3529
02:58:36,040 --> 02:58:37,400
 And, we're invested in this community.

3530
02:58:37,840 --> 02:58:40,540
 With checking and savings accounts, mobile and online banking,

3531
02:58:40,740 --> 02:58:43,260
 and a mortgage department to help you with the home of your dreams,

3532
02:58:43,660 --> 02:58:45,640
 First Southern Bank is your neighborhood bank.

3533
02:58:46,120 --> 02:58:48,760
 Sometimes a local financial institution with deep roots

3534
02:58:48,760 --> 02:58:52,380
 and a commitment to the community can provide just the banking services you need.

3535
02:58:52,740 --> 02:58:54,260
 We always root for the home team.

3536
02:58:54,260 --> 02:58:55,880
 Because we are the home team.

3537
02:58:56,340 --> 02:58:57,080
 First Southern Bank.

3538
02:58:57,280 --> 02:58:58,920
 Equal Housing Lender Member FDIC.

3539
02:59:00,200 --> 02:59:02,820
 The voice of the Florence High School Falcons.

3540
02:59:03,260 --> 02:59:04,940
 W-Y-T-K-F-M.

3541
02:59:05,440 --> 02:59:05,960
 Rogersville.

3542
02:59:06,080 --> 02:59:06,440
 Athens.

3543
02:59:06,540 --> 02:59:07,020
 Decatur.

3544
02:59:07,180 --> 02:59:08,000
 The Shoals.

3545
02:59:08,260 --> 02:59:09,360
 93-9.

3546
02:59:09,640 --> 02:59:10,560
 The score.

3547
02:59:18,620 --> 02:59:22,140
 Back here at Austin High School, the Black Bears take the lead.

3548
02:59:22,240 --> 02:59:23,300
 And, John, that last drive.

3549
02:59:24,140 --> 02:59:31,400
 Kevin, it was 14 plays, 75 yards, six minutes and 14 seconds that came off of the clock.

3550
02:59:31,760 --> 02:59:33,620
 Marsh will take the kick at the three.

3551
02:59:34,220 --> 02:59:35,960
 Goes to the left, looking for running room.

3552
02:59:36,000 --> 02:59:36,540
 Not much there.

3553
02:59:36,600 --> 02:59:38,060
 And, he's hit for 13 and goes down.

3554
02:59:39,820 --> 02:59:42,280
 And, for the first time in a while, Mike, I'll say this.

3555
02:59:42,620 --> 02:59:47,000
 We have had, where we've had good protection on kicks, we have not done that well tonight.

3556
02:59:47,600 --> 02:59:49,740
 No, we certainly have not.

3557
02:59:49,900 --> 02:59:54,340
 It's not been a great showing on the return side of things at this point.

3558
02:59:55,240 --> 02:59:58,680
 So, Florence will have to go 87 yards.

3559
03:00:00,040 --> 03:00:03,180
 What's your take on a guy doing a backhand spring on the field?

3560
03:00:03,380 --> 03:00:04,380
 Is that a...

3561
03:00:04,380 --> 03:00:05,260
 Oh, is that a celebration?

3562
03:00:05,780 --> 03:00:06,620
 Is that a...

3563
03:00:06,620 --> 03:00:07,840
 Was that on the field or was that...

3564
03:00:07,840 --> 03:00:09,040
 It was on the 20.

3565
03:00:09,840 --> 03:00:11,560
 Was that coming on to the field or going off?

3566
03:00:12,060 --> 03:00:13,780
 It was after the play.

3567
03:00:13,860 --> 03:00:14,380
 After the play.

3568
03:00:14,460 --> 03:00:15,220
 That would be interesting.

3569
03:00:16,880 --> 03:00:17,560
 I don't know.

3570
03:00:17,720 --> 03:00:19,300
 I saw backhand spring.

3571
03:00:19,300 --> 03:00:21,580
 We haven't had enough players do that, be able to do that.

3572
03:00:22,600 --> 03:00:25,420
 Williams is the tailback for Mayhem, the quarterback.

3573
03:00:27,960 --> 03:00:32,000
 Williams, no, play, action, pass, complete to Green, spins away, 20, 25.

3574
03:00:32,260 --> 03:00:35,500
 Going down to the left side on 30, 35, and he's finally brought down.

3575
03:00:36,240 --> 03:00:37,740
 Love a play by Kavante there.

3576
03:00:38,200 --> 03:00:41,480
 He did a little shimmy and a shake, and he got another 10, 15 yards.

3577
03:00:42,960 --> 03:00:46,440
 He just stayed arm distance away from the guy, and any time he came close,

3578
03:00:46,440 --> 03:00:51,340
 he just punched him with a little stiff arm there, really got him off his guy.

3579
03:00:51,860 --> 03:00:54,420
 Second down, or first down and 10 at the 34.

3580
03:00:55,640 --> 03:00:56,800
 Gain of about 20.

3581
03:00:58,240 --> 03:01:00,220
 Check back to the sideline.

3582
03:01:00,660 --> 03:01:01,980
 6.18 to go in the game.

3583
03:01:02,080 --> 03:01:03,920
 Florence trails at 21.17 now.

3584
03:01:06,100 --> 03:01:07,360
 Green is wide right.

3585
03:01:07,680 --> 03:01:08,760
 Goolsby wide left.

3586
03:01:10,860 --> 03:01:11,880
 Williams is the tailback.

3587
03:01:12,580 --> 03:01:16,200
 They bring the blitz, play action, wants to pass again, has time, lets it go down the

3588
03:01:16,200 --> 03:01:16,780
 right sideline.

3589
03:01:17,060 --> 03:01:17,980
 It's going to be a jump ball.

3590
03:01:18,100 --> 03:01:19,320
 Green comes back, tries to get it.

3591
03:01:19,360 --> 03:01:21,980
 It was being held, but no flag, incomplete.

3592
03:01:22,620 --> 03:01:25,880
 He was being held, and it was quite obvious.

3593
03:01:26,020 --> 03:01:29,560
 Green only had one opportunity with the one arm.

3594
03:01:29,940 --> 03:01:33,360
 They're going to say it's mutual, you know, mutual fighting.

3595
03:01:33,360 --> 03:01:36,060
 Not too much argument from Florence right there on the sideline.

3596
03:01:36,760 --> 03:01:37,860
 Second down and 10.

3597
03:01:38,760 --> 03:01:42,660
 I'm not a huge fan of throwing it up into the wind like that.

3598
03:01:42,660 --> 03:01:44,280
 That ball did hang up there.

3599
03:01:45,440 --> 03:01:48,320
 Now, second and long, it just makes it difficult for the offense.

3600
03:01:48,740 --> 03:01:53,000
 Yeah, I mean, you're probably looking at four down territory all the way, I think, in this win.

3601
03:01:55,000 --> 03:01:57,220
 5.59 to go in the game, down by four.

3602
03:01:58,160 --> 03:01:59,380
 But Kayon Williams has it.

3603
03:01:59,700 --> 03:02:01,980
 Up the middle, gets hit and brought down immediately.

3604
03:02:03,080 --> 03:02:06,840
 He got hit pretty hard right there around the line of scrimmage, third and 10.

3605
03:02:07,000 --> 03:02:11,680
 And that's the danger of having this situation with the wind is now they can just pin their ears

3606
03:02:11,680 --> 03:02:12,840
 back and key on the run.

3607
03:02:13,840 --> 03:02:18,620
 But with it being third and 10, I guess anything's possible, you know.

3608
03:02:18,800 --> 03:02:22,340
 But on that second down play, he pretty well knew it was going to be a run.

3609
03:02:23,800 --> 03:02:26,520
 Goolsby and Kavante Green will come wide to the right.

3610
03:02:27,480 --> 03:02:33,260
 Tejada will be the tight end to the left along with, we'll check that, blank.

3611
03:02:34,120 --> 03:02:36,840
 The tailback is Kavante.

3612
03:02:38,340 --> 03:02:38,920
 Going to leave it.

3613
03:02:38,940 --> 03:02:39,540
 No play action.

3614
03:02:39,660 --> 03:02:40,180
 Want to pass.

3615
03:02:40,300 --> 03:02:40,900
 Mahan, look.

3616
03:02:41,320 --> 03:02:42,040
 Now he's got time.

3617
03:02:42,340 --> 03:02:43,320
 Deep down the middle.

3618
03:02:43,440 --> 03:02:45,820
 Ball hangs up for Kavante, and he can't get it.

3619
03:02:45,880 --> 03:02:46,840
 And the flag comes out.

3620
03:02:46,920 --> 03:02:48,120
 They're reaching for it, and there it is.

3621
03:02:48,240 --> 03:02:48,760
 Thank goodness.

3622
03:02:49,580 --> 03:02:50,760
 Because he was being tackled.

3623
03:02:51,880 --> 03:02:53,580
 And that'll be enough for a first down.

3624
03:02:54,000 --> 03:02:55,220
 And I'll give Mahan credit.

3625
03:02:55,580 --> 03:02:57,040
 Jeffrey Jones on the sideline.

3626
03:02:57,380 --> 03:02:59,140
 That was a heck of a throw into the wind.

3627
03:02:59,280 --> 03:03:06,120
 Yeah, we're lucky he's a pitcher because he's got the accuracy and he's got the touch, too.

3628
03:03:06,180 --> 03:03:09,060
 And he just threw that one up, and thankfully we got the call on that one,

3629
03:03:09,060 --> 03:03:11,540
 which, you know, they've missed two calls in the last two plays.

3630
03:03:12,240 --> 03:03:16,320
 Twice now, Coulson's been questionably hit late after he's thrown the ball.

3631
03:03:17,720 --> 03:03:19,160
 He was hit on time on that one.

3632
03:03:20,000 --> 03:03:23,320
 So, it'll be 15 yards from the 33.

3633
03:03:23,520 --> 03:03:24,680
 It should be at the 48.

3634
03:03:25,400 --> 03:03:30,100
 And Florence will have it first and 10 at close to midfield with 5'11 to go, trailing by four.

3635
03:03:31,700 --> 03:03:32,920
 They'll mark it at the 49.

3636
03:03:34,520 --> 03:03:36,540
 And this, you never know if you get 15 or 16.

3637
03:03:36,700 --> 03:03:37,400
 It just depends.

3638
03:03:37,560 --> 03:03:38,760
 We'll take the 16-yard penalty.

3639
03:03:39,720 --> 03:03:41,280
 First and 10 at the 49.

3640
03:03:42,000 --> 03:03:43,400
 Florence 51 yards away.

3641
03:03:43,580 --> 03:03:44,980
 Kayon Williams is your tailback.

3642
03:03:46,240 --> 03:03:47,360
 Kirkman wide right.

3643
03:03:47,860 --> 03:03:49,360
 And the slot is Gouldsby.

3644
03:03:51,600 --> 03:03:52,540
 Four-man front.

3645
03:03:53,240 --> 03:03:54,780
 They've got about seven or eight in the box.

3646
03:03:55,220 --> 03:03:55,680
 That's Austin.

3647
03:03:55,800 --> 03:03:57,620
 Now that's shifted tight and eights to the left.

3648
03:04:00,100 --> 03:04:01,220
 Going to go left with it.

3649
03:04:01,320 --> 03:04:02,180
 And that's Kayon.

3650
03:04:02,280 --> 03:04:03,720
 Got a hold to the 45.

3651
03:04:04,160 --> 03:04:05,900
 Lowers his head and gets about five.

3652
03:04:06,480 --> 03:04:07,580
 Tough yards right there.

3653
03:04:07,920 --> 03:04:13,220
 What I'd like to see out of Florence right here with five minutes to go is running the clock a little bit.

3654
03:04:13,280 --> 03:04:17,240
 If we wind up scoring late, you know, you don't want to give Austin another opportunity.

3655
03:04:17,420 --> 03:04:19,460
 They're only going to be able to really, truly run the ball.

3656
03:04:20,120 --> 03:04:24,800
 And you're going to give them the ball back with a little bit too much time if you score too early.

3657
03:04:25,200 --> 03:04:28,800
 At the 43, second down and five.

3658
03:04:29,560 --> 03:04:31,860
 Both teams have all three timeouts left.

3659
03:04:32,540 --> 03:04:33,700
 Florence trails by four.

3660
03:04:34,420 --> 03:04:38,600
 Kayon Williams to the right of the shotgun quarterback, Mahan, on the second down five play.

3661
03:04:40,120 --> 03:04:43,840
 And before the snap, a timeout taken by Kenny Morrison.

3662
03:04:44,440 --> 03:04:45,360
 We'll do the same.

3663
03:04:45,600 --> 03:04:50,040
 Florence trails Austin 21-17 with 4.27 to go.

3664
03:04:50,160 --> 03:04:51,740
 Falcon football back in 30.

3665

3674
03:05:27,040 --> 03:05:36,300
 4.27 to go in the game.

3675
03:05:37,080 --> 03:05:39,320
 Florence trails Austin 21-17.

3676
03:05:39,500 --> 03:05:41,940
 Kevin Johnson, Mike Albertson, Jeffrey Jones on the sideline.

3677
03:05:42,020 --> 03:05:43,340
 John McDaniel are statistician.

3678
03:05:44,940 --> 03:05:50,020
 Florence leaning on Kayon Williams at tailback here in the second half.

3679
03:05:50,680 --> 03:05:51,740
 Has two wideouts.

3680
03:05:51,940 --> 03:05:56,040
 Green to the left, who's had some big catches, and Goolsbee, who's had some big catches.

3681
03:05:56,220 --> 03:05:57,360
 Mahan has played outstanding.

3682
03:05:58,500 --> 03:06:01,460
 Second down and five to go against a four-man front.

3683
03:06:06,040 --> 03:06:07,060
 Pass to the left.

3684
03:06:07,600 --> 03:06:08,340
 Got it to Green.

3685
03:06:08,460 --> 03:06:08,760
 Got it.

3686
03:06:08,900 --> 03:06:12,140
 Got enough for the first down at the 38 on the down-and-out pattern.

3687
03:06:12,700 --> 03:06:14,600
 Should be enough to move the chains, and it will.

3688
03:06:15,120 --> 03:06:17,080
 That was a great catch by Green.

3689
03:06:18,480 --> 03:06:19,860
 His beautiful hands there.

3690
03:06:19,960 --> 03:06:23,620
 He just stuck it and pulled himself right out of bounds.

3691
03:06:24,040 --> 03:06:25,280
 4.24 to go.

3692
03:06:27,400 --> 03:06:28,320
 In the game.

3693
03:06:29,900 --> 03:06:32,140
 Green to the right now, to the wide side.

3694
03:06:32,140 --> 03:06:37,100
 We march into the wind towards the Austin locker room to our right.

3695
03:06:37,300 --> 03:06:38,800
 Here sitting on the visitor's side.

3696
03:06:40,080 --> 03:06:41,060
 Goolsbee wide left.

3697
03:06:45,120 --> 03:06:47,100
 Kayon off the left side.

3698
03:06:47,260 --> 03:06:50,080
 Not in much running room there, but he lowers his head and got about a yard or two.

3699
03:06:52,600 --> 03:06:57,500
 Get him to about the 36, depending on the mark there.

3700
03:06:58,640 --> 03:07:03,920
 They'll give him a yard to the 37, and we'll go under four minutes here in about six seconds.

3701
03:07:06,440 --> 03:07:08,900
 Four minutes to go in the game right now.

3702
03:07:09,780 --> 03:07:10,920
 Florence down by four.

3703
03:07:11,720 --> 03:07:14,480
 Can Kayon Williams break one free?

3704
03:07:14,660 --> 03:07:15,880
 The sophomore has been great.

3705
03:07:15,980 --> 03:07:18,040
 His first game back after being out three games.

3706
03:07:19,980 --> 03:07:21,380
 Green out wide right.

3707
03:07:22,060 --> 03:07:24,920
 And in the slot next to him on the wide side is dual free.

3708
03:07:24,920 --> 03:07:27,400
 They've got a mix-up on the black bears.

3709
03:07:27,500 --> 03:07:28,660
 We need to take advantage of it.

3710
03:07:30,200 --> 03:07:30,920
 Play action.

3711
03:07:31,020 --> 03:07:31,700
 Wants to throw.

3712
03:07:32,140 --> 03:07:32,400
 Looking.

3713
03:07:32,540 --> 03:07:33,020
 Trying to run.

3714
03:07:33,100 --> 03:07:33,760
 Now he's in trouble.

3715
03:07:33,880 --> 03:07:34,300
 It's Mahan.

3716
03:07:34,340 --> 03:07:35,220
 He's got to get rid of it.

3717
03:07:35,460 --> 03:07:38,380
 Down the left side line, he'll throw it to his running back and out of bounds.

3718
03:07:38,480 --> 03:07:38,920
 Incomplete.

3719
03:07:39,920 --> 03:07:41,740
 That one didn't have what we needed.

3720
03:07:41,820 --> 03:07:44,520
 They had three on our two, and they were waiting on it.

3721
03:07:44,620 --> 03:07:46,860
 It wasn't open, and it brings up third and eight.

3722
03:07:48,900 --> 03:07:50,540
 That's where you really want to be able to audible.

3723
03:07:50,720 --> 03:07:53,900
 Like you said, Kevin, they had way too many out defending.

3724
03:07:54,040 --> 03:07:56,700
 They had at least three defenders over two wide receivers.

3725
03:07:57,780 --> 03:08:00,220
 You're in four down territory with 332 to go.

3726
03:08:00,300 --> 03:08:02,200
 You've got two timeouts left here for Florence.

3727
03:08:04,580 --> 03:08:06,000
 Clock stopped at 332.

3728
03:08:07,760 --> 03:08:10,000
 Sullivan had a key to the game along with Elliott.

3729
03:08:10,720 --> 03:08:11,460
 Goalsby to the right.

3730
03:08:11,620 --> 03:08:12,440
 Green to the left.

3731
03:08:13,580 --> 03:08:14,800
 Went back is Williams.

3732
03:08:15,660 --> 03:08:16,400
 Oh, he fumbled it.

3733
03:08:16,460 --> 03:08:19,380
 Ball to the ground and recovered by Austin in the backfield.

3734
03:08:21,880 --> 03:08:26,040
 Turnover Florence and the Falcons in their deep hole now with 329 to go.

3735
03:08:26,500 --> 03:08:28,740
 The fourth turnover of the night for the Falcons.

3736
03:08:29,820 --> 03:08:32,340
 And Austin will have it with the win to their back.

3737
03:08:32,880 --> 03:08:34,720
 And Florence only left with two timeouts.

3738
03:08:35,160 --> 03:08:40,060
 Just the exchange didn't go well, Mike.

3739
03:08:40,700 --> 03:08:41,920
 The exchange did not go well.

3740
03:08:42,060 --> 03:08:43,420
 That's a great way of putting it.

3741
03:08:43,700 --> 03:08:50,260
 It's pretty frustrating because this team is far better than they've shown tonight.

3742
03:08:51,060 --> 03:08:56,920
 Once again, when everything is on the line, we just folded at the wrong time.

3743
03:08:57,740 --> 03:09:01,540
 They still have an opportunity with 329 left, but the chances are quite slim.

3744
03:09:02,340 --> 03:09:05,620
 At the 41, and they're going to get a dose of number nine.

3745
03:09:06,140 --> 03:09:09,700
 The 6'2", 220-pound tailback, who's been outstanding, Aiden Davis.

3746
03:09:10,360 --> 03:09:12,080
 If you're Florence, you've got to take some chances here.

3747
03:09:12,140 --> 03:09:13,220
 You've got to bring some pressure.

3748
03:09:13,920 --> 03:09:15,360
 Davis off the middle.

3749
03:09:15,720 --> 03:09:17,820
 Breaks a tackle at the 45 and gets to the 50.

3750
03:09:18,200 --> 03:09:19,200
 Gain of nine.

3751
03:09:20,160 --> 03:09:21,240
 And the clock will run.

3752
03:09:21,780 --> 03:09:24,900
 It's hard to take chances when the kid's just running downhill constantly.

3753
03:09:25,220 --> 03:09:27,060
 You know, it really is.

3754
03:09:27,180 --> 03:09:29,860
 You can send the house, but once he gets past that level,

3755
03:09:29,860 --> 03:09:32,560
 it's just big yardage.

3756
03:09:33,300 --> 03:09:35,820
 Go Terrell Wisdom, defense coordinator, sending signals.

3757
03:09:37,160 --> 03:09:38,260
 Second down and one.

3758
03:09:38,360 --> 03:09:41,020
 That means they get an extra play here, and they can run a lot more clock.

3759
03:09:42,160 --> 03:09:43,860
 They can run it all the way down to about a minute,

3760
03:09:44,500 --> 03:09:48,460
 two minutes and 50 seconds, or 40 seconds, before they snap it.

3761
03:09:52,500 --> 03:09:55,020
 They're in single digits before they come set.

3762
03:09:57,840 --> 03:09:59,000
 Davis up the middle.

3763
03:09:59,120 --> 03:09:59,960
 Got the first down.

3764
03:10:00,060 --> 03:10:00,800
 It stays on his feet.

3765
03:10:00,900 --> 03:10:03,220
 Breaks a tackle to the 40, to the 35.

3766
03:10:03,340 --> 03:10:06,580
 It goes down the sideline, 30, 25, and finally pushed out of bounds.

3767
03:10:07,240 --> 03:10:10,660
 The only saving thing there was he pushed him out of bounds with 2.36 to go

3768
03:10:10,660 --> 03:10:11,520
 to stop the clock.

3769
03:10:12,300 --> 03:10:14,980
 But it'll be first and 10 inside the Falcon 20.

3770
03:10:19,500 --> 03:10:21,720
 Actually, they're going to mark him at the 22 where he stepped out.

3771
03:10:24,780 --> 03:10:29,460
 And that big offensive line for Austin has just controlled this game.

3772
03:10:31,160 --> 03:10:34,280
 And Florence has shot themselves in the foot way too many times tonight.

3773
03:10:36,260 --> 03:10:41,240
 Davis, the tailback, will get it again off the right side.

3774
03:10:41,340 --> 03:10:45,540
 This time he's hit by Jaden White, brought down at the 19, a gain of three.

3775
03:10:46,740 --> 03:10:48,920
 And Kenny Morrison's going to use one of his timeouts.

3776
03:10:49,500 --> 03:10:51,500
 With 2.27 to go, we'll do the same.

3777
03:10:51,620 --> 03:10:54,340
 Florence trails Austin 21-17 in a deep hole.

3778
03:10:54,740 --> 03:10:55,540
 This is Falcon Football.

3779
03:10:55,700 --> 03:10:56,380
 We're back in 30.

3780
03:10:57,660 --> 03:11:01,560
 With locations in Tuscumbia, Florence, Muscle Shoals, Russell, Killen,

3781
03:11:01,760 --> 03:11:05,500
 Madison, and Athens, Singing River Dentistry provides the most advanced

3782
03:11:05,500 --> 03:11:08,540
 dental care, including same-day crowns and implants,

3783
03:11:08,760 --> 03:11:10,420
 in a compassionate and friendly atmosphere.

3784
03:11:10,780 --> 03:11:13,180
 They excel in educating their patients and themselves

3785
03:11:13,180 --> 03:11:16,200
 about the benefits of keeping a healthy smile for a lifetime.

3786
03:11:16,200 --> 03:11:19,080
 The care of their patients is the center of their practice.

3787
03:11:19,280 --> 03:11:22,120
 They value their patients' time, trust, and total health.

3788
03:11:22,360 --> 03:11:25,020
 For more information about their practice or to request an appointment,

3789
03:11:25,260 --> 03:11:27,680
 go to SingingRiverDentistry.com.

3790
03:11:31,960 --> 03:11:36,340
 Two minutes, 27 seconds to go in the game, and Florence is in a deep battle.

3791
03:11:36,680 --> 03:11:40,720
 Down by four, and Austin with the football at the Falcon 19.

3792
03:11:41,840 --> 03:11:46,960
 With one timeout to left, this Austin team, Mike, can pretty much milk this clock down to about a minute.

3793
03:11:47,640 --> 03:11:48,880
 Yeah, they certainly could.

3794
03:11:49,180 --> 03:11:56,100
 It's one of those situations where Coach Perkins has done a masterful job in this second half

3795
03:11:56,100 --> 03:11:59,380
 and just being able to milk the clock and run it down to keep the ball away from Florence.

3796
03:12:02,980 --> 03:12:07,920
 Davis to the right side again, hit at the line of scrimmage, but we'll get nothing really.

3797
03:12:08,640 --> 03:12:10,120
 Timeout taken by Kenny Morrison.

3798
03:12:10,240 --> 03:12:12,200
 His final timeout at 2.20 to go.

3799
03:12:12,780 --> 03:12:14,040
 We'll take that timeout with him.

3800
03:12:14,420 --> 03:12:16,120
 Florence trails 21-17.

3801
03:12:16,340 --> 03:12:17,140
 We're back in 30.

3802
03:12:18,060 --> 03:12:21,100
 Hello, this is Kevin Arnold with Village Discount Drugs.

3803
03:12:21,180 --> 03:12:23,140
 We've been in the Shoals since 1979.

3804
03:12:23,520 --> 03:12:24,240
 We live here.

3805
03:12:24,420 --> 03:12:25,360
 We go to school here.

3806
03:12:25,460 --> 03:12:29,760
 Do you want to do business with someone local or a company from Rhode Island, Illinois, or Arkansas?

3807
03:12:30,000 --> 03:12:32,620
 The large chains just don't reinvest in our community.

3808
03:12:32,760 --> 03:12:37,140
 The large chains don't sponsor little league teams, and they certainly don't sponsor Falcon football.

3809
03:12:37,140 --> 03:12:40,620
 And don't just buy from Village Drugs, but support all our local businesses.

3810
03:12:40,840 --> 03:12:45,720
 Let these local businesses give you the service you deserve while keeping your local economy strong.

3811
03:12:45,900 --> 03:12:51,220
 So make the switch to Village Drugs, a local pharmacy, where we are the Shoals' problem solvers and people pleasers.

3812
03:12:56,780 --> 03:12:58,240
 2.22 to go.

3813
03:12:59,240 --> 03:13:01,220
 Florence trails Austin 21-17.

3814
03:13:02,500 --> 03:13:09,780
 And the Black Bears will face second down, I think it is, no, third down, excuse me, and six to go from the 17.

3815
03:13:10,880 --> 03:13:14,820
 But Florence can't stop the clock again, so the Falcons, even if they stopped Austin,

3816
03:13:14,940 --> 03:13:17,140
 wouldn't see the ball again until one minute.

3817
03:13:17,440 --> 03:13:18,940
 A first down would end the game.

3818
03:13:21,560 --> 03:13:23,380
 A touchdown would end the game for Austin.

3819
03:13:24,860 --> 03:13:28,080
 And Davis is in the backfield behind the quarterback, Jarman.

3820
03:13:28,580 --> 03:13:31,480
 I'm not sure how many times he's touched it, but it's got to be over 30 easy.

3821
03:13:33,440 --> 03:13:38,740
 Davis off the right side, looking, cuts up in the middle, 15, stays on his feet, down around the 10.

3822
03:13:38,820 --> 03:13:40,240
 He should have enough for the first down.

3823
03:13:41,460 --> 03:13:42,580
 And that's going to do it.

3824
03:13:43,380 --> 03:13:44,940
 And there was taunting right there.

3825
03:13:45,720 --> 03:13:51,340
 Big fellow was dancing in front of one of our players on the ground, conveniently forgotten and ignored.

3826
03:13:52,500 --> 03:13:53,700
 And 2-10 and counting.

3827
03:13:53,700 --> 03:13:56,160
 And the Black Bears can take a knee now.

3828
03:13:56,780 --> 03:14:02,140
 I think with the way this play clock is done, they could probably take a knee.

3829
03:14:03,440 --> 03:14:04,540
 It'd be close.

3830
03:14:05,120 --> 03:14:06,300
 That's why they're not sure yet.

3831
03:14:06,380 --> 03:14:07,480
 I think they'll just run their offense.

3832
03:14:08,520 --> 03:14:10,720
 He may run it all the way down and call the timeout.

3833
03:14:10,800 --> 03:14:12,200
 He's got 17 on the play clock.

3834
03:14:12,760 --> 03:14:14,320
 Jeremy Perkins holding his offense there.

3835
03:14:14,400 --> 03:14:15,000
 And give him credit.

3836
03:14:15,140 --> 03:14:19,000
 The veteran coach, he's holding it before he calls the play in to where he wants it.

3837
03:14:19,740 --> 03:14:21,500
 Now he gets it in with eight on the play clock.

3838
03:14:22,340 --> 03:14:23,940
 140 on the regular clock.

3839
03:14:25,260 --> 03:14:26,820
 Davis off the right side again.

3840
03:14:26,980 --> 03:14:28,100
 Davis looking to cut back.

3841
03:14:28,220 --> 03:14:29,940
 Irons tried to get him, pushed him down at the nine.

3842
03:14:33,980 --> 03:14:35,560
 130 and the clock will run.

3843
03:14:36,220 --> 03:14:38,540
 Just has not been the Falcons night.

3844
03:14:39,860 --> 03:14:42,220
 Turnovers, mistakes, fought hard.

3845
03:14:42,760 --> 03:14:46,680
 But the Black Bears are starting to feel it.

3846
03:14:50,500 --> 03:14:53,060
 And Kenny Marson, a veteran coach.

3847
03:14:55,060 --> 03:14:57,520
 He's now telling the guys on the sideline,

3848
03:14:58,420 --> 03:15:00,420
 when we say cans, we're going to do it in class already.

3849
03:15:04,000 --> 03:15:06,900
 The veteran coach preaching to his team that.

3850
03:15:08,940 --> 03:15:10,880
 Austin will go into victory formation.

3851
03:15:12,760 --> 03:15:19,340
 They'll snap it one more time and that'll do it.

3852
03:15:22,620 --> 03:15:23,640
 And that will do it.

3853
03:15:24,580 --> 03:15:26,040
 They won't have to snap it again.

3854
03:15:27,000 --> 03:15:32,260
 And the Black Bears will have a chance to play for a region title themselves next week

3855
03:15:32,260 --> 03:15:33,680
 against the Russell for Golden Tigers.

3856
03:15:34,340 --> 03:15:38,580
 Meanwhile, Florence will lick their wounds and have their first loss of the season

3857
03:15:38,580 --> 03:15:43,240
 as they fall here to Austin by a score of 21-17.

3858
03:15:45,560 --> 03:15:50,220
 I've got questions about how this game even operates, though.

3859
03:15:51,120 --> 03:15:56,340
 They took a knee at 44 seconds and then they reset the ball 24 seconds later.

3860
03:15:56,460 --> 03:15:57,260
 20 seconds to go.

3861
03:15:57,880 --> 03:15:58,660
 Is that how it works?

3862
03:16:00,100 --> 03:16:00,980
 It doesn't matter.

3863
03:16:01,100 --> 03:16:01,720
 The game is over.

3864
03:16:01,960 --> 03:16:02,340
 I'm just saying.

3865
03:16:02,480 --> 03:16:03,460
 Florence is showing classes.

3866
03:16:03,600 --> 03:16:05,140
 We're waiting for them to get in the line.

3867
03:16:05,540 --> 03:16:06,580
 And now they come.

3868
03:16:06,660 --> 03:16:07,740
 They're celebrating their victory.

3869
03:16:08,460 --> 03:16:12,860
 And Austin wins it over Florence by a score of 21-17.

3870
03:16:13,120 --> 03:16:14,200
 This is Falcon football.

3871
03:16:14,580 --> 03:16:16,180
 We're back in one minute.

3872
03:16:19,380 --> 03:16:23,480
 Carbine Construction is honored to be a part of building projects with the Florence City

3873
03:16:23,480 --> 03:16:24,380
 school system.

3874
03:16:24,980 --> 03:16:29,040
 We're also glad to cheer on the Falcons as they celebrate milestone achievements as well.

3875
03:16:29,480 --> 03:16:33,220
 Good luck to head coach Kenny Morrison and the Florence Falcons football team on building

3876
03:16:33,220 --> 03:16:38,080
 a special season to remember as Carbine Construction wishes you the very best this season.

3878
03:16:44,380 --> 03:16:48,520
 Falcons football team, at Carbine Construction, we continue to build.

3879
03:16:49,380 --> 03:16:52,680

3887
03:17:19,680 --> 03:17:22,760
 This is Miranda Haddock with the Florence Education Foundation.

3888
03:17:23,380 --> 03:17:26,480

3893
03:17:40,260 --> 03:17:44,500
 We would like to wish Coach Morrison and the entire Falcon football team good luck this season.

3894
03:17:51,440 --> 03:17:55,700
 Back here at Austin High School, the TNT Fireworks postgame show.

3895
03:17:55,820 --> 03:17:57,220
 Not good news for the Falcon fans.

3896
03:17:57,320 --> 03:18:04,100
 For the first time this season, Florence falls and loses the game 21-17 in a hard-fought game

3897
03:18:04,100 --> 03:18:05,280
 here at Austin High School.

3898
03:18:06,220 --> 03:18:08,040
 Jeffrey Jones on the sideline there.

3899
03:18:08,120 --> 03:18:10,400
 I think it's close to the head coach, Kenny Morrison.

3900
03:18:10,820 --> 03:18:12,300
 Morrison, just interrupt me when you get him.

3901
03:18:13,020 --> 03:18:13,800
 I've lost him.

3902
03:18:13,880 --> 03:18:14,260
 Hold on a minute.

3903
03:18:14,260 --> 03:18:15,260
 Okay, we'll let you catch him there.

3904
03:18:15,320 --> 03:18:15,820
 Okay, I got him.

3905
03:18:17,860 --> 03:18:22,620
 As he's telling, he's having a moment with Aiden Davis, the great running back for Austin,

3906
03:18:22,800 --> 03:18:24,280
 who can play at the next level.

3907
03:18:24,440 --> 03:18:25,760
 And Kenny Morrison's letting him know that.

3908
03:18:25,880 --> 03:18:26,880
 Nice sportsmanship there.

3909
03:18:27,200 --> 03:18:28,900
 Let's go down to Jeffrey Jones with the head coach.

3910
03:18:28,980 --> 03:18:30,900
 Coach, the point about it is it just wasn't our night, was it?

3911
03:18:33,320 --> 03:18:34,680
 No, it was not our night.

3912
03:18:35,540 --> 03:18:37,640
 Austin, hats off to Coach Perkins.

3913
03:18:37,640 --> 03:18:40,360
 Those guys, they played really well tonight.

3914
03:18:41,320 --> 03:18:42,540
 We had some turnovers.

3915
03:18:42,920 --> 03:18:43,880
 Things didn't go our way.

3916
03:18:44,660 --> 03:18:47,340
 They whipped our tails tonight.

3917
03:18:47,880 --> 03:18:50,120
 There was some bright spots.

3918
03:18:50,360 --> 03:18:53,900
 We faced some adversity with that wind all night long.

3919
03:18:54,680 --> 03:18:57,140
 Some great receptions by our receivers downfield.

3920
03:18:57,680 --> 03:18:59,120
 There was some things to learn on.

3921
03:18:59,580 --> 03:19:01,160
 Yeah, we got a lot to build on.

3922
03:19:01,160 --> 03:19:04,680
 We took a step back tonight.

3923
03:19:04,980 --> 03:19:08,220
 I was a little disappointed in our sideline stuff in the first half.

3924
03:19:08,460 --> 03:19:12,720
 And we've got some maturity issues that we got to grow up.

3925
03:19:12,920 --> 03:19:13,860
 And we got to just keep working.

3926
03:19:13,980 --> 03:19:15,460
 Hey, a lot's ahead of us.

3927
03:19:15,760 --> 03:19:16,220
 Who knows?

3928
03:19:16,340 --> 03:19:18,300
 Russell is a dadgum good football team.

3929
03:19:18,820 --> 03:19:20,200
 Russell beats them next week.

3930
03:19:20,580 --> 03:19:22,860
 We're still reaching champs with a win over Hartzell.

3931
03:19:23,020 --> 03:19:25,020
 So, lots ahead of us.

3932
03:19:25,280 --> 03:19:26,040
 We'll see what happens.

3933
03:19:26,880 --> 03:19:29,140
 Next week, we'll kind of learn how to bounce back.

3934
03:19:29,220 --> 03:19:30,440
 We haven't lost yet this year.

3935
03:19:30,620 --> 03:19:31,940
 We learned to tonight.

3936
03:19:32,080 --> 03:19:32,780
 You know, we learned a lot.

3937
03:19:33,020 --> 03:19:37,720
 So, next year or next week, expect some different attitudes and whatnot.

3938
03:19:38,340 --> 03:19:39,000
 More humbleness.

3939
03:19:39,200 --> 03:19:39,560
 Absolutely.

3940
03:19:39,820 --> 03:19:41,640
 We got humble tonight, for sure.

3941
03:19:42,440 --> 03:19:44,820
 We've got to mature and grow from it and learn from it.

3942
03:19:45,160 --> 03:19:46,320
 You know, I'll say this.

3943
03:19:46,380 --> 03:19:49,800
 If the worst thing happens to these guys in their lifetime, they're going to be okay.

3944
03:19:49,880 --> 03:19:51,400
 It's a football game at the end of the day.

3945
03:19:51,840 --> 03:19:54,680
 Not taking anything away from Coach Perkins and those guys.

3946
03:19:55,240 --> 03:19:56,060
 Phenomenal job.

3947
03:19:56,540 --> 03:19:57,720
 They've got a phenomenal team.

3948
03:19:58,060 --> 03:19:59,880
 And they always peak at this time.

3949
03:20:00,600 --> 03:20:01,180
 Thanks, Coach.

3950
03:20:01,240 --> 03:20:01,600
 Have a good night.

3951
03:20:02,080 --> 03:20:02,520
 Hey, Coach.

3952
03:20:02,580 --> 03:20:03,820
 Kenny Marson with Jeffrey Jones.

3953
03:20:03,860 --> 03:20:04,840
 Who did a good job there.

3954
03:20:05,280 --> 03:20:06,120
 That's Florence Falls.

3955
03:20:06,260 --> 03:20:10,440
 21-17 to Austin here on the road at Austin.

3956
03:20:10,580 --> 03:20:12,360
 Just not the Falcons' ninth.

3957
03:20:12,900 --> 03:20:15,740
 And if you want to get down to it, it was all about turnovers.

3958
03:20:16,240 --> 03:20:17,940
 And Florence turned it over four times.

3959
03:20:18,080 --> 03:20:21,760
 I'm not sure that the Black Bears even turned it over once.

3960
03:20:21,840 --> 03:20:25,240
 If you count the block field, there's one turnover they said is our statistician.

3961
03:20:25,700 --> 03:20:28,380
 But Florence just couldn't take care of the football.

3962
03:20:29,040 --> 03:20:32,940
 And that got them in a game where you knew it's going to be a matter of possessions, Mike,

3963
03:20:33,240 --> 03:20:34,420
 and a matter of time of possession.

3964
03:20:34,980 --> 03:20:38,560
 And to give tip of the hat to the Austin Black Bears, as Coach Kenny Marson said,

3965
03:20:38,560 --> 03:20:40,660
 at the end of the day, they were the better team tonight.

3966
03:20:41,080 --> 03:20:42,660
 They certainly were the better team tonight.

3967
03:20:42,800 --> 03:20:45,060
 They executed a little bit better than Florence did.

3968
03:20:45,180 --> 03:20:46,580
 That's why the score is the way it is.

3969
03:20:46,940 --> 03:20:50,480
 And that is ultimately if Florence can look at this game

3970
03:20:50,480 --> 03:20:53,160
 and see that they beat themselves as much as Austin whooped them.

3971
03:20:53,300 --> 03:20:55,660
 And that's what it is.

3972
03:20:55,720 --> 03:20:56,980
 Aidan Davis, tremendous back.

3973
03:20:57,080 --> 03:20:59,040
 We could sing his praises all day long.

3974
03:20:59,380 --> 03:21:02,080
 But at the end of the day, four turnovers isn't going to beat many teams.

3975
03:21:02,660 --> 03:21:03,400
 No, it really isn't.

3976
03:21:03,460 --> 03:21:05,240
 And that's where the Falcons found themselves tonight.

3977
03:21:05,660 --> 03:21:07,260
 Austin wins their homecoming game.

3978
03:21:07,260 --> 03:21:09,420
 And give the Black Bears all the credit.

3979
03:21:09,540 --> 03:21:10,540
 They did what they were supposed to do.

3980
03:21:10,900 --> 03:21:12,540
 It's not over yet for Florence.

3981
03:21:12,700 --> 03:21:16,420
 As you heard Coach Kenny Marson say, when it comes to region games

3982
03:21:16,420 --> 03:21:22,480
 and region title opportunities, Austin, I think, goes on the road next week to Russellville.

3983
03:21:22,880 --> 03:21:24,320
 Florence will be home against Hartzell.

3984
03:21:24,500 --> 03:21:29,180
 If Russellville was to beat Austin and if Florence were to beat Hartzell,

3985
03:21:29,280 --> 03:21:31,400
 then Florence would be the region champion.

3986
03:21:31,540 --> 03:21:34,720
 But those are things still down the road, so we'll see where that is as well.

3987
03:21:34,720 --> 03:21:38,760
 You've had an opportunity to seal your own fate and do it yourself.

3988
03:21:39,580 --> 03:21:43,400
 And when you leave it in the hands of other folks, that's where you're going to come up disappointed.

3989
03:21:43,640 --> 03:21:46,460
 So I hope this doesn't come back to bite us two years in a row.

3990
03:21:47,040 --> 03:21:49,780
 It's quite unfortunate that we're in the situation that we're in.

3991
03:21:50,020 --> 03:21:55,160
 However, we're going to still have to handle our business next week and worry about just what we can control.

3992
03:21:55,480 --> 03:22:00,040
 And that's all we can control is how we handle this adversity and head towards Hartzell next week.

3993
03:22:00,820 --> 03:22:05,820
 It will be a tough one for Florence to swallow, but it's definitely not the end of the season.

3994
03:22:06,520 --> 03:22:12,140
 And I know this veteran coaching staff, they will work all they can to wake this Falcon team up and say,

3995
03:22:12,220 --> 03:22:14,060
 OK, now, you've been hit in the mouth.

3996
03:22:14,180 --> 03:22:15,620
 Welcome to real world.

3997
03:22:16,280 --> 03:22:18,760
 You don't have to worry about the undefeated season.

3998
03:22:18,860 --> 03:22:19,460
 You're 7-1.

3999
03:22:19,640 --> 03:22:24,060
 Now you can turn your attention to what you've got to do and try to make this thing a 9-1 season.

4000
03:22:24,060 --> 03:22:27,560
 But first things first, make it 8-1 next week against the Hartzell Tigers.

4001
03:22:27,960 --> 03:22:30,100
 You're listening to the TNT Fireworks Post Game Show.

4002
03:22:30,200 --> 03:22:31,140
 We're back in one minute.

4003
03:22:59,580 --> 03:23:11,280
 Hello, my name is Keith Medley, and I'm an attorney with the law firm of Johnson, Passuer, Medley & Burchill.

4004
03:23:11,360 --> 03:23:18,120
 Why call an out-of-town lawyer when you can call our law firm, which has over 100 years of combined experience in all areas of the law?

4005
03:23:18,380 --> 03:23:27,320
 If you have a legal matter, please call me or Leslie Johnson, Deborah Bell, Passuer, Adam Burchill at 256-766-3131.

4006
03:23:27,420 --> 03:23:30,080
 We're proud to be a sponsor of Florence High School Athletics.

4007
03:23:30,080 --> 03:23:55,280
 Back at Austin High School, where Florence falls to the Black Bears 21-17, and a huge upset for the Black Bears knocking off the undefeated Florence Falcons here, 21-17.

4008
03:23:55,280 --> 03:23:57,440
 On a cold, windy night, no excuses.

4009
03:23:57,580 --> 03:23:59,220
 The Black Bears just did what they had to do.

4010
03:23:59,620 --> 03:24:04,800
 It played in their way, in their favor, and they took advantage of it and took advantage of the Falcons' turnovers and mishaps.

4011
03:24:05,220 --> 03:24:06,960
 And that really was a big difference in the game.

4012
03:24:07,040 --> 03:24:10,740
 And the Falcons will go home down 7-1 now after the loss.

4013
03:24:11,060 --> 03:24:13,380
 Let's get our stats brought to us by our friends at Chick-fil-A.

4014
03:24:13,700 --> 03:24:15,540
 And let John McDaniel take it away.

4015
03:24:15,820 --> 03:24:16,520
 Thank you, KJ.

4016
03:24:17,260 --> 03:24:21,980
 The Black Bears tonight, for the game, they had 323 yards of total offense.

4017
03:24:23,260 --> 03:24:27,160
 61 rushes tonight for 310 yards on the ground.

4018
03:24:27,860 --> 03:24:30,520
 Just two for seven passing for 13 yards.

4019
03:24:31,380 --> 03:24:33,300
 21 first downs on the night.

4020
03:24:33,760 --> 03:24:36,360
 Six for 13 on third down conversions.

4021
03:24:37,040 --> 03:24:39,140
 Three for four on fourth down conversions.

4022
03:24:39,800 --> 03:24:40,620
 The one turnover.

4023
03:24:41,900 --> 03:24:44,840
 Penalties tonight, nine for 79 yards.

4024
03:24:45,820 --> 03:24:47,680
 Three for three on their PATs.

4025
03:24:47,740 --> 03:24:51,280
 The time of possession, three minutes and 39 seconds.

4026
03:24:51,340 --> 03:24:55,200
 I'm sorry, 31 minutes and 39 seconds for the Black Bears.

4027
03:24:55,720 --> 03:24:59,360
 The Falcons tonight, 271 yards of offense.

4028
03:24:59,900 --> 03:25:02,880
 We had 24 rushes for 150 yards.

4029
03:25:03,560 --> 03:25:07,220
 Eight for 10 passing, 121 yards.

4030
03:25:07,680 --> 03:25:10,200
 We had 13 first downs on the night.

4031
03:25:10,880 --> 03:25:12,760
 0 for three on third down conversions.

4032
03:25:13,240 --> 03:25:14,980
 And no fourth down attempts tonight.

4033
03:25:15,780 --> 03:25:18,500
 The big four turnovers we've already mentioned.

4034
03:25:18,800 --> 03:25:20,900
 Five penalties for 65 yards.

4035
03:25:21,620 --> 03:25:23,880
 Of course, two for two on our PAT attempts.

4036
03:25:24,380 --> 03:25:28,420
 And our time of possession, 15 minutes, 40 seconds.

4037
03:25:30,500 --> 03:25:36,000
 Kion tonight, he had 17 carries for 124 yards and a touchdown.

4038
03:25:36,680 --> 03:25:40,900
 Of course, Kion was eight for 10 for 121 yards and a touchdown.

4039
03:25:41,900 --> 03:25:43,600
 And John Carter builds me.

4040
03:25:43,640 --> 03:25:46,860
 He had two big catches, 67 yards and a touchdown.

4041
03:25:47,400 --> 03:25:56,960
 And since I'm sure everybody is wondering how did Mr. Davis do tonight, well, he only had 42 carries for 250 yards and two touchdowns.

4042
03:25:57,200 --> 03:25:58,520
 Wow, 42 for 250.

4043
03:25:58,520 --> 03:26:03,180
 It's been a while since we've seen one player just dominate a game.

4044
03:26:03,320 --> 03:26:05,440
 He had the great offensive line up in front of him.

4045
03:26:05,440 --> 03:26:07,460
 But trust me, the kid can play.

4046
03:26:07,700 --> 03:26:08,460
 And he showed it there.

4047
03:26:08,700 --> 03:26:09,700
 He is a handful.

4048
03:26:10,260 --> 03:26:14,340
 And this Austin team is built around one player in so many ways.

4049
03:26:14,840 --> 03:26:17,960
 And, you know, it came down to Florence in the second half.

4050
03:26:18,060 --> 03:26:18,900
 It tied at 14.

4051
03:26:19,040 --> 03:26:20,300
 Couldn't get it in the end zone.

4052
03:26:20,440 --> 03:26:22,020
 Ended up settling for a field goal.

4053
03:26:22,540 --> 03:26:24,600
 At the time, we didn't know if it was the right decision.

4054
03:26:24,740 --> 03:26:28,780
 But, hey, I can't second guess the coach because he knew, hey, I've got to believe in it.

4055
03:26:28,900 --> 03:26:29,760
 The field goal was good.

4056
03:26:29,820 --> 03:26:30,660
 You took the lead.

4057
03:26:30,960 --> 03:26:35,620
 But just couldn't hold the Black Bears out of the end zone and couldn't put it back in the end zone.

4058
03:26:36,140 --> 03:26:41,920
 And Austin will come away with a 21-17 win tonight here at home against Florence.

4059
03:26:41,920 --> 03:26:46,500
 Our final thoughts, I'll start with our sideline reporter who has been battling through it a little bit tonight.

4060
03:26:46,620 --> 03:26:47,760
 I'm a good friend, Jeffrey Jones.

4061
03:26:48,380 --> 03:26:49,000
 Thanks, KJ.

4062
03:26:49,140 --> 03:26:50,100
 Yeah, it's great.

4063
03:26:52,540 --> 03:26:56,260
 A performance by Aiden Davis.

4064
03:26:56,520 --> 03:26:59,280
 You know, I like giving our guys credit, but he.

4065
03:27:00,720 --> 03:27:01,540
 He did it.

4066
03:27:01,760 --> 03:27:01,940
 Yeah.

4067
03:27:02,420 --> 03:27:02,900
 He did it.

4068
03:27:02,900 --> 03:27:03,500
 No doubt about it.

4069
03:27:03,520 --> 03:27:06,060
 I think the batteries just went out on J.J. right there at the last minute.

4070
03:27:06,120 --> 03:27:06,760
 It just did.

4071
03:27:07,040 --> 03:27:07,220
 Yep.

4072
03:27:07,260 --> 03:27:08,040
 So it might have been that.

4073
03:27:08,360 --> 03:27:09,400
 Let's go also and find out.

4074
03:27:09,400 --> 03:27:11,520
 No, we were unplugged downstairs.

4075
03:27:11,880 --> 03:27:13,760
 So we're on our backup battery.

4076
03:27:13,960 --> 03:27:14,060
 Yep.

4077
03:27:14,220 --> 03:27:17,720
 My final thoughts are they whooped us when we didn't need a whooping.

4078
03:27:18,180 --> 03:27:19,520
 We need to learn from this.

4079
03:27:19,640 --> 03:27:21,820
 Head on to Hartzell and come away with victory.

4080
03:27:22,240 --> 03:27:23,960
 And then from then on, who knows?

4081
03:27:24,040 --> 03:27:25,140
 But handle what we can control.

4082
03:27:25,540 --> 03:27:26,600
 I know we're getting it right quick.

4083
03:27:26,700 --> 03:27:27,820
 Just 10 seconds there, John.

4084
03:27:28,480 --> 03:27:29,660
 There's not much to say.

4085
03:27:29,840 --> 03:27:32,140
 The better player, the better team won tonight.

4086
03:27:32,700 --> 03:27:33,900
 Falcons rebound.

4087
03:27:34,180 --> 03:27:35,040
 Come back next week.

4088
03:27:35,100 --> 03:27:36,920
 Let's see how much we can improve in a week.

4089
03:27:37,080 --> 03:27:39,040
 It takes a lot to get an undefeated season.

4090
03:27:39,180 --> 03:27:40,100
 It didn't happen for Florence.

4091
03:27:40,180 --> 03:27:41,100
 They fall to 7-1.

4092
03:27:41,100 --> 03:27:46,600
 Next week, though, they get to take on the Hartzell Tigers and everything still in front of the Falcons going forward.

4093
03:27:46,780 --> 03:27:48,240
 This is Florence Falcon football tonight.

4094
03:27:48,240 --> 03:27:53,560
 For our good friends, our station manager, I should say, Greg Thornton.

4095
03:27:53,640 --> 03:27:55,460
 For James Moody and the 93.9 score studios.

4096
03:27:55,600 --> 03:27:58,280
 My good friends, Mike Albertson, Jeffrey Jones, and John McDaniel.

4097
03:27:58,380 --> 03:28:00,460
 I'm Kevin Johnson saying have a great night.

4098
03:28:00,580 --> 03:28:02,180
 And we'll see you in church on Sunday.

4099
03:28:02,300 --> 03:28:02,840
