Long drives, big plays, four TDs and a tied score at halftime

So who is going to say, ‘Give’?

Both University and Garfield are playing to their strengths today in the Invitational final at the Coliseum.

Garfield has had time-consuming drives of 99 and 73 yards for its two touchdowns. University has gotten one big play each -- a 64-yard run by Trayon Harris and a 26-yard run by Travis Rawls -- for its two scores.

Going into the second half tied, 14-14, University should be concerned. Even though the Wildcats did stop Garfield on a fourth-and-goal at the four-yard line, their defense has already spent a long time on the field.

The Bulldogs have been successful pounding the left side of the University defensive line. I expect the Dawgs will keep at it until the Cats break.
