DREW'S TAKE
-
The Crush may have had a bye week to kick the season off, but it doesn't mean things will start off easy for coach Jose Jefferson.The Crush open their season at home against the Salt Lake Screaming Eagles. The Eagles are fresh off a loss to the Nebraska Danger, losing 78-47. While the score may make it seem like the game was always out of reach, the Eagles got as close as 8 points in the second quarter before Nebraska finally was able to run away with the score. Salt Lake got 16 first downs to Nebraska's 22, was still was able to put up 239 yards of offense to the Danger's 248, and also won time of possession.
Salt Lake's defense had a rough day, allowing 145 yards in the air, 80% conversion rate on third downs, and over 100 yards on the ground. The offense started the season off productive however, Verlon Reed led the Eagles in passing (19/30, 182 Yards, 6 Touchdowns, 2 interceptions), rushing (10 carries, 56 yards and 1 touchdown), and four different receivers recorded touchdowns.
The Crush play Salt Lake the most out of anyone this season. This is the first of four meetings between these two teams.
