PREVIEW STEWARVILLE GAME

Big game this week with the Stewarville Tigers. The Tigers come into the game with a record of 4-2 overall and 3-1 in the division. The Bomber are 3-3 overall and 1-3 in the division. A win for the Bombers will likely give them a winning record, Pine Island the last opponent is not a good team.  The Bombers will have to defend the pass this week. Stewarville comes into the game with the most passing yardage in the HVL. If you look at the stats between the two they exact opposites in rushing and passing stats. The Bomber rush for 1209 yards and pass for 735 yards, the Tigers rush for 716 yards and pass for 1213 yards. In section play it also is important, both teams sit as the third seed in their sections, staying in third will give the Bombers a home playoff game. The Bombers will have to stop the Tigers sophomore Quarterback Aaron Quandt who leads the league in yardage, but also interceptions. Will Gisler is the favorite target with 42 catches, 530 yards and 7 touchdowns. In fact Stewarville has 3 receivers in the top ten in the league. The Bombers will have to keep the pressure on Quandt, don't give him time to find his second or third receivers. The Bombers will need to try and shorten the game with the rush game. I said last week I thought the Bombers have turned the corner on their passing game, but this is a game they have to find their rushing game again, after two lackluster performances on the ground. If the Bomber can find their rushing attack and continue the new found passing attack they will win.     Bombers 24 Tigers 14
