Hopefully the Clements Colts football team will have a good season this year. Hopefully they will be able to beat the Denver Broncos in the first round of the playoffs.
Several teams in the Clements vs West Limestone high school football rivalry have met at least twice in the last fifty years. In fact, they have met at least three times since 1964. It’s not surprising then that both teams have spent the last few months practicing together and preparing for their match-up on Friday. Both squads have had some pretty good seasons in the past.
Clements and West Limestone have gone head to head in a few of their matches, but the Wildcats haven’t beaten the Tigers since a 7-3 win in the regular season. In fact, the Tigers hold a 27-24 lead, which they’ve clinged to for the last five seasons. Despite the win, the Tigers aren’t exactly the most dominant of the Limestone County’s four teams. In fact, they were only sixth in 4A last season.
Clements has a lot of talented football players, but West Limestone is a better team on the field. The Tigers boast 17 players on the roster and have been practicing together for months. A lot of that will be put to the test Friday night. It’s going to be a real battle between two teams that have been working hard on and off the field since June.
The Tigers have a 2-2 record and have notched their first win of the season at home. They have a number of high-profile games in their upcoming schedule, including a league test against West Morgan on October 21. They will also have an opportunity to test their mettle against the Wildcats on a neutral field in a non-league test on Friday. Tickets for the game are on sale now. Tickets can be purchased at the high school or at the gate when the game is played.
The Tigers’ varsity football team started off the season with a bang, winning their first region game of the season. The Tigers are not known for their passing game, so the running game was key to their success. It’s not surprising then that the most impressive score came on a play involving a running back. Jamorris Ricks rushed for 129 yards on seven carries.
The Tigers were the first to score points, and the first to snag the win. The most impressive score came on a play averaging a whopping forty-seven yards, but the best thing about this game was that the Tigers matched Clements on the scoreboard. It’s also worth noting that the Tigers got the ball in the end zone for the first time since 1964. The team also made a few big plays in the second half, including a few on the ground.
Neither the Denver Broncos or the Indianapolis Colts have played much better this season than they did on Thursday night. Both teams were missing their top players due to injury and are struggling offensively. The Colts have the worst rushing offense in the NFL and the Broncos are ranked 30th in scoring. Both teams are also allowing a lot of points this season.
The Colts put up their best performance of the season so far and beat the Broncos, 27-26, in overtime. The Colts improved to 2-2-1, while the Broncos are 2-3. The Colts are also missing superstar running back Jonathan Taylor.
The Colts are also sacked four times and have three turnovers. However, the Broncos are averaging a league-low 14.3 points per game and Russell Wilson has two interceptions in the game. He is also carrying a shoulder injury and has not been respected by his teammates. In addition to his two interceptions, he also has 69 passing yards and no touchdowns.
With five seconds to go in regulation, the Broncos were trying to tie the game with a field goal. But Brandon McManus missed a chip shot field goal that would have put the Broncos up by three points. Instead, the Colts took over and went on a 68-yard drive, which ended with a touchdown by Robert Gordon. This game was also the first in NFL history in which two quarterbacks with at least four Pro Bowl appearances had no touchdowns.
The Colts also had to replace star running back Jonathan Taylor, who was out for the game due to a leg injury. They also lost starting defenders Garett Bolles, Ryan Kelly, and Javonte Williams to knee injuries before the game. They are also missing starters like linebacker Shaquille Leonard, defender Darius Phillips, and WR Jalen Virgil.
The Colts defense also put together one of the best performances of the 2022 season so far. They sacked Wilson four times, tied with the Los Angeles Rams for the most sacks surrendered in the league, and held him to 274 yards passing. The Broncos defense is allowing a league-high 16.5 points per game, but also has been allowing a lot of yards this season.
Russell Wilson had a strong start to the game, but was intercepted by cornerback Stephon Gilmore on fourth-and-one from the five-yard line. On the following play, Wilson was sacked by DeForest Buckner, who broke the pocket and forced a fumble. This was Wilson’s fourth sack of the game. He fumbled twice and lost two other fumbles. On the next play, he was sacked again by DeForest Buckner, who again broke the pocket.
The Colts are also playing without their best running back, who was injured on the opening drive. Phillip Lindsay is back in town after being traded to the Broncos in the offseason, and he is averaging 40 yards on 11 carries. The Colts’ offensive line is still struggling, however. They have allowed at least one sack in all nine games this season.
Despite an unimpressive record, the Clements Colts had the distinction of being the first team to finish the season undefeated. They will look to get back on track with a win over the Elkmont Tigers on the road. They will also be trying to take down the West Morgan Knights at home on Sept. 6. A win over the Bearcats would set them up nicely for the playoffs. The Colts finished with 38 players in the mix, a full nine more than a year ago.
In an unconference format, the Clements Colts have a few high profile games on the schedule. Their biggest rival is Cold Springs, and they will also play host to county rival West Limestone on August 30. A win over the Bearcats would send them into the playoffs as the early favorite. They will also play a couple of conference rivals in the form of the Ardmore Tigers and the West Morgan Knights. The two teams will be fighting for supremacy in the district, a scenario that hasn’t been conducive to a winning record in the past.
The Clements Colts have a game plan that is both offensively sound and defensively savvy. Their defensive line isn’t short on talent, and the team’s opportunistic playmakers should be rewarded.
