The Eagles are coming off of a big win against Philipsburg, and look to keep the ball rolling against the Red Raiders of Bellefonte.

Bellefonte on the other hand, is coming off of a hard loss week, and are looking to bounce back in a big way.

The Eagles are hoping to execute their game plan this week by controlling the line of scrimmage. The Raiders are big up front and are fast off the ball. The Eagles will have to show their experience and poise when facing this aggressive front. But the key for this week is to weather the storm. The Raiders come out of the gate strong, but as the game goes on the Eagles are hoping that their conditioning will come into play.

On defense for the Eagles, they will need to be aggressive and fly to the ball. The Raiders are a run heavy team, and will try to pound the ball. The Eagles need to wrap up and gang tackle to stop this ferocious running game.

However, the Raiders are missing one of their key players at the running back position due to injury. That may end up being a big factor in this week’s game.

For the Raiders, they will look to shut down the Eagles’ running game. They are skilled up front and like to bring a lot of pressure. They will want to shut down the running game, but they will also have to worry about the Eagles passing game. In the recent weeks, Tyrone quarterback Drew Hunter has put up some big numbers, including breaking the Tyrone single game passing yards record against Huntington. So with the Eagles it is a two sided sword; the Bellefonte defense will have to be very cautious on what they want to do against them.
