PREVIEW BOMBERS VS BEACONS

The Cannon Fall Bombers play the Concordia Academy Beacons Saturday night, in the semifinals of section 4. The Beacons advanced with a win over Minneapolis Roosevelt last Wednesday night. The Beacons come in to the game with a record of 6-3. Watching film against Roosevelt and against St.Croix Lutheran which are complete opposites. One of the best and one of the worst. They cruised past Roosevelt but could not stop the St. Croix offense, The Beacons are pistol, 1 back mid line-veer team. The Bombers have to play assignment football this week. The Beacons will start 10 seniors and 5 juniors on either offense or defense. Most players play both ways. Their defense is a 5-2 defense or some would call it a 3-4 with walk up backers, either way they have 5 defensive players on the line of scrimmage. Against St Croix, after Concordia scored to start the 3rd quarter, the score was 20-7 St Croix. This will be a big challenge for the Bombers, typically they do not fare well against veer teams. If they can play assignment football and move the ball, which I think they can, against this Beacon defense the Bombers should win. Bombers 24 Beacons 21
