After losing 48-27 to North Marion in a make-up game, the Rams look to bounce back from their 2nd loss of the season. Last week, University of Florida commit Anthony Richardson rushed for 100 yards and a touchdown to go along with 105 yards passing but it still wasn't enough to get past the Colts. North Marion stopped Richardson for the most part last week forcing him to use him arm. This week's oppenent in Belleview provides a great opportunity for Richardson and the rest of the Rams offense to get back on track. The defense will need to be better too as they have given up at least 27 points in their last two games.
2018 has not treated Belleview High School nicely. The Rattlers are trying to find something to build off as Adam Martin's first year as a head coach hasn't been the best. Belleview has had their head coach resign the past two seasons. First there was John Brantley who resigned in 2017 who was replaced by Michael Kelly who was replaced by Martin. Sitting at 0-5 on the season, the Rattlers have not scored more than 7 points in a game. They have been shut out twice this season. Two weeks ago they lost 57-0 to Buchholz then lost 48-7 a week later. At this point, Belleview may be looking to get themselves in a close ballgame and show some progression. However, it is a tall order to stop D-1 bound Anthony Richardson.
