Keys for Waverly:

1. Recover the ball when Valley kicks off. The game I attended every Valley kickoff (and there were many) was lofted about 10 to 15 yards downfield. Valley recoverd the ball once and nearly a couple more times. You have to go after the ball aggressively! I suspect we'll see a fake punt also.

2. Account for Shope on "every single play". He fakes the handoff numerous times a game and runs the ball. He's fast and he's strong.

3. Can't let the Valley receivers behind our DBs. They'll make you pay.

4. Contain Streeter: Easier said than done! He runs hard. Also, look out for misdirection plays and screens. I bet we see both!

5. Play with passion and spirit! I like what I saw from #8 the other night. :)

Go Tigers!! The weather looks extraordinary...I can't wait for this one. Biggest game of the season so far for Waverly! Hoping for a huge Waverly crowd Friday. Valley's side will be near capacity I'm sure.

People posting/predicting a blow out is crazy. Valley is a very dangerous team and now has 5 games under their belt.
Toast posted some real concerns and keys to Waverly’s success. If Waverly does a good job of those, mainly defensive concerns, they should win this game. Valleys defense has given up a lot of points and Waverly has a bunch of weapons....
The weather forecast is looking great - Tigers will bring a HUGE crowd!!!

Valley will be ready to play there is no doubt about that. They are just too well coached to not be prepared, but the defense needs to play much better than Week 1 giving 57 to Portsmouth and the offense has to be just as good because Waverly will light up the scoreboard.
Honestly with Waverly getting some kids back as long as we don't look ahead (everyone knows who we play next week) and keep focused on Valley I'll say Waverly by 2 tds.

6. No holding/blocks in the back during Shoemaker's kick/punt returns.

7. No turnovers.

8. No 3rd down drive extending penalties on defense.

9. No injuries/get the injured players back.

I agree...Valley is indeed a very dangerous team! They possess the most productive balanced offense we've seen. I was impressed when I watched them. They've put up 180 points in five games which is more than any team we've faced. They're effective at both running and passing the ball. What makes it even more of a challenge is when Shope drops back to pass he's a real threat to take off and run.

West @ Minford and Waverly @ Valley......What an exciting opening week for the SOC2.

I like our Waverly team! They've stepped it up when they had to and they've overcome a fair amount of adversity. Make no mistake....it will take another "HUGE" effort this week to beat a very solid well coached Valley team. Go Tigers!!

I really hope the coaching staff and players are NOT taking Valley as lightly as some on here. This Valley team can light it up quick so we better be prepared and focused... I believe we are the better team with more skilled athletes but this will be the best team we’ve faced so far and by far the best offensive team we’ve seen. And we better be ready for fake punts, onside kicks, reverses, halfback passes, you name it - throw in the kitchen sink.....

Tigers shoud get Brown back, not sure about Marquez....

So it sounds like this one could possibly be a shootout? Or the battle of who commits the least amount of turnovers? I have not watched Valley at all, just know the final scores to their games. But I am pretty confident in Waverly's ability to score and it seems like Valley can put some points up as well. How is Valley's defense?

Gave up 50 to Portsmouth and 60 to raceland. They have good skill players. They are improving each game but still have work to do.

Expect to win Waverly big here, but I'd love to see the Injuns take this one.

Overall I see defense and special teams as being the most important thing in this game. As a result I think Waverly has the advantage in both.

I would agree, just hope the Tigers aren't entering overconfident and looking ahead to a HUGE week 7 matchup.
