Guru's Golden Picks: Arena League Week 9

[scottw]

Marshall OOB with :01. Good return to about midfield. Rush out to kick.

 

[AFLGuru]

C'mon Clay. Flush this!

 

[scottw]

38 yarder. PERFECT.

 

[AFLGuru]

Sweet... Ol' reliable Clay Rush...

So at the half...

Colorado: 190
Dallas: 148

Clay Rush: 38 yards
Long TD: 29 yards

 

[AFLGuru]

Good to see that everything I've said about this Dallas game has been true so far.

Close game, right on pace. Clay Rush with a FG in the mid 30s. Now it takes a 47 yard TD to beat us. Colorado playing decent D... good enough to cover 45 passing yards... not even a legit rush attempt for either team though. That was a bit surprising. I'd rather have the 4.5 on my side in the 2nd half considering I'm getting the ball.

 

[AFLGuru]

Colorado pick 'em in the 2nd half... you like it Scott?

 

[AFLGuru]

Preds score again.... 51-21... route is on. 4:00 left or so. 4 TDs needed almost impossible task.

 

[scottw]

I would go with it over DAL pk, cause you get the ball first. DAL may also go for 2 at some point to make the margin 7, and if they miss, that helps COL second half play.

 

[scottw]

Dreisbach sighting in ORL.

 

[AFLGuru]

And ANOTHER pick. Welcome to Orlando's D Johnny Harris.

 

[AFLGuru]

I would go with it over DAL pk, cause you get the ball first. DAL may also go for 2 at some point to make the margin 7, and if they miss, that helps COL second half play.

It's that 2-pter I'm worried about. If they make it, that's really the only non-stop way to beat the Crush in the 2nd half.

 

[AFLGuru]

Old school Preds ball tonight. I love it. Sorry about Austin to everyone who went with it. Oh yeah, and the over... Yeah... well.... Johnny Harris played a much better game than I would have thought. We'll hope Colorado hangs on and calls it a winning night.

 

[AFLGuru]

Alright, let's get 'em Crush in the 2nd half.

 

[AFLGuru]

Where are we looking at Scott... Got a freeze on gametracker

 

[scottw]

Per my guy listening to AUS postgame show:

Austin coach said it was tough but they had to pull FITZ out. BUT DIDN'T SAY WHY! He did say Fitz will be ready for next week! He must be banged up. WTF!

 

[scottw]

3rd and goal COL at DAL 7.

 

[scottw]

INC. 4th and goal from 7.

 

[AFLGuru]

Hmph... interesting.... better score here Crush, because he'll bring in Rush again....

 

[scottw]

FG good by Rush. 37-34.

 

[AFLGuru]

Don't like the way this one looks so far.... Colorado needs a stop.

I'm afraid this could be Dallas' defense starting to do in the 2nd half what Dallas' defense does at times... you know, shuts a team completely down in the 2nd half? Did it to CMB, PHI, and ORL without thinking.
