be named the official replacement site.
Earlier in the day, Gov.
Andrew Cuomo said it would
have been “impractical” for
the Bills (5-5) to host the
game Sunday at Ralph Wilson Stadium.
The Bills were unable to
practice Thursday for a second straight day because of
a travel ban in and surrounding Orchard Park. More than
5.5 feet of snow had fallen
by Wednesday night, and 2
to 3 more feet were forecast
through Thursday night.
However, there was one
Jet who would have preferred to play the game at its
previously scheduled time.
Although many of his teammates seemed unaffected,
Calvin Pace called the uncertainty an “inconvenience.”
“Just get it over with, man,
and just move on. That’s just
my thinking. Hey, as long as
we play this thing on Sunday,
we can go somewhere else,
and play in the Carrier Dome
or play in Detroit like they did
when the bubble fell in Minnesota,” Pace said, referring to
the Metrodome’s collapse in
2010. “We can find a solution.
Just play on Sunday at 1.”
Jets coach Rex Ryan
seemed far less bothered
by the situation. “It wouldn’t
affect us,” he said. “We’d just
aim our plane in a different direction, I guess. ... It
doesn’t matter where, when.
We’ll be ready.”
Ryan said his team had
prepared a contingency
plan in case the game was
moved. He also joked he’d
be happy to play it at MetLife
Stadium.
worst run defenses, left them
kicking a field goal.
After a week of talking
about the importance of
establishing the run in this
game, K-State had its worst
rushing game in nearly two
decades, gaining 1 yard on
29 attempts. Running backs
Charles Jones (4 yards) and
Robinson (-7 yards) were
particularly ineffective, continually running into walls of
defenders and getting tackled
in the backfield. But Waters
wasn’t much better, gaining
13 yards on 12 attempts.
K-State’s offensive line will
shoulder blame, too. The way
the Wildcats were running
the ball, third-and-short felt
like third-and-long.
“It’s very frustrating knowing that you can’t get that
one yard,” senior center B.J.
Finney said. “You take great
Panthers,
Last week at Oakley,
Phillipsburg made history
by making it to a sub-state
game for the first time,
along with nabbing 10 wins
— also a school record. Facing Oakley for the second
time this season, Phillipsburg
won handily, 48-12.
Friday, the Panthers face
a similar situation, when
they face an Ell-Saline team
they already beat, 20-14,
during the regular season
for a district championship.
Phillipsburg had to score a
fourth-quarter TD to break
a 14-14 tie in that game
after it had jumped out to a
14-0 first-quarter lead.
“They caught us off guard
the first time with a couple
of things they did,” Covington said of Ell-Saline, which
has won three straight since
that loss. That includes last
week’s 28-12 win against last
year’s 2-1A state runner-up,
La Crosse.
“They ran a lot of jet
sweep and then zone reads,
a couple of things we really
don’t see a lot of,” he added.
Covington said his Panther team is a little more
prepared this time around,
and is confident if it plays its
game, can make it one more
round.
“We had to adjust a little
bit, and really our whole
week offensively was against
their 3-5 (in Week 8),” he
from A10
said, “but they came out and
ran a 6-3 against us.”
Though the Panther
offense was bottled up a
bit, senior tailback Stuart
Lennemann was able to gain
128 yards on the ground.
The Panthers’ rushing
leader, Lennemann enters
Friday’s game with 1,323
yards on 111 carries and 20
touchdowns, a season-high
four TDs coming in last
week’s win at Oakley.
“We finally got it all figured out in the fourth quarter,” Covington said of the
Ell-Saline win. “Hopefully
we know a little bit more
about what they’re going to
be doing.”
While Phillipsburg relies
on its run game, with Lennemann, senior quarterback
Sam Sage (107 carries, 721
yards, seven TDs) and junior
Nate Prewiit (98 carries, 689
yards, nine TDs), Ell-Saline’s success somewhat has
hinged on the play of senior
quarterback Louie Arceo.
“Arceo is good, athletic
and fast,” Covington said.
“And he throws the ball
well. We were surprised with
how well they threw the ball
against us. We weren’t really
looking for that, but everything kind of goes through
him.”
Arceo has 117 carries for
816 yards and 11 rushing
scores, and has passed for
Friday, November 21, 2014
pride in being able to get
push. I don’t know what has
not been going our way or
what the cause is, but we have
got to get it figured out and
we have got to get it fixed.”
Snyder described West
Virginia’s game plan as a
major factor.
“Today the biggest problem was, it’s one of those
things you have heard me say
so many times, anybody can
take away anything if they
want to, and perhaps leave
themselves in the woods in
other areas,” Snyder said.
“That is what happened
today. That doesn’t solve our
problems, I assure you of
that. But that was the issue
today.”
Whatever the case,
K-State, which managed
34 rushing yards last week
against TCU, has now failed
to run the ball with any efficiency in back-to-back games.
On this night, it flirted with
its first negative rushing outing since 1996 against Texas
Tech in the Big 12’s inaugural
game.
McCrane salvaged as
many points as he could,
connecting on 4 of 6 fieldgoal attempts, including an
important 32-yarder with
4:21 remaining in the fourth
quarter.
But Waters truly saved the
day by completing 22 of 34
passes and a touchdown.
“It’s just doing your job,”
Waters said. “When they call
a play run or pass I just have
to do my job ... I felt good
throwing the football. I had
no clue it was 400 yards or
anything like that. I was so
involved in the game. It was
just frustrating to get the ball
and drive down to the goal
line and not get in the end
zone. We are normally the
best at that.”
Waters’ main target was
Lockett, who caught 10
passes for 196 yards, joining
Quincy Morgan as the only
two K-State players to top
1,000 receiving yards in two
seasons.
Combined with a specialteams TD and four turnovers
on defense, that was enough.
But the game was much
closer than it could have
been. If not for an unforced
fumble by West Virginia
running back Wendell
Smallwood at the goal line in
the first quarter and several
questionable throws by Clint
Trickett, who completed 12
of 25 passes for 112 yards
with two interceptions, KState might not have won.
907 yards and nine scores.
Senior running back Cody
Walters has added 820 yards
and eight rushing scores. EllSaline already has avenged
one of its losses. The Cardinals lost 44-12 in Week 12 at
Sedgwick, but traveled there
again for the first round of
the playoffs, and defeated
Sedgwick, 28-20.
“Not surprised at all,”
Covington said of meeting
up with Ell-Saline again.
“They’re a really good
football team. They spread
it out and make you miss
tackles.”
Ell-Saline is making its
third sub-state appearance
in history, and is seeking its
first state title game appearance since winning it all in
1989.
