5A high school football playoffs: Skyline at Syracuse

Me, Myself and I | 1:13 p.m. Oct. 28, 2009

In a close game playoff experience will decide the winner. Syracuse has had an excellent season but the playoffs are a hole new animal. Skyline 21 Syracuse 17.

not sure experience matters - Syracuse went to PG in their 2nd year last season and beat a highly-favored team.

The offense, however, is sketchy. Even if the defense holds Skyline to 14 points (which would be impressive), I would question if the Syracuse offense can manage to score enough to win.

Should be a good game, though.

Skyline has their work cut ut for them but so does Syracuse. I hope the Eagles can pull this one out but it is going to be close. I expect another Hunter/Skyline type game. Our PAT kicker had better practice his rear end off this week. He may just get a chance to redeem himself.

Go Eagles!

I don't think Syracuse can score. Their offense has looked terrible. If Skyline puts up the points like they have it will be over by halftime.

I am hoping for a Syracuse victory I just dont think the O-line and D-line are has good as last year. And Syracuse QB cant pass. Skyline by 8

Syracuse no offense | 5:29 p.m. Oct. 28, 2009

Syracuse has had no offense the last two games. QB cannot find the open receiver and takes off running to much. The front three on offense need to block better for Syracuse to have a chance. Skyline 32 Syracuse 14

Don't count out Syracuse' amazing kicker, Lava Foot (Josh Kealamakia).

Front THREE?! | 11:40 p.m. Oct. 28, 2009

I think we all understand the offensive issue now, and why the QB has to run so much. SHS will win this one, 100% sure of that. (front three - geesh!)

Syracuse boys "Leave No Doubt!!!"

SKYLINE BY 40!! | 10:30 a.m. Oct. 29, 2009

thats right, i hate skyline, and i even know that they will run away with this one! syracuse hasnt scored a touchdown in eight quarters! skyline 49 syracuse 6

We need a new QB that can see downfield.
Anyone want the job

Front three geesh | 7:42 p.m. Oct. 29, 2009

Okay! The front Seven. Most of the time the defensive pressure has come right up the middle and if not the QB takes off with any pressure. Basically no offense. Syracuse should be getting better not worst. They lost to a bad Layton team. Now its gut check time to see what Syracuse is made of. I would love to see them win but you need to guit following your heart and look at what is really going on. I would have guit on the pass too if I was coaching because even when he has time to throw the ball its not on the money.

Utah Sports Action | 3:12 p.m. Oct. 30, 2009

This should be the game of the week. Both teams are tough. Syracuse has a good defense and Skyline has a good offense. It will be an interesting game.

Wow | 4:56 p.m. Oct. 30, 2009

You should really know both teams before you predict. The Syracuse D is better than most people south of Bountiful think. You guys made your predictions based on a meaningless game at the end of the season. Big mistake. I doubt Bingham will overlook them. But then PG did last year. We will see. Great job #7.

Syracuse Wins! | 6:03 p.m. Oct. 30, 2009

Syracuse 31...skyline 7...sorry all you Skyline fans!

to skyline by 40 | 6:27 p.m. Oct. 30, 2009

What was your score prediction again? you must have switched up teams on accident i guess we'll all forgive you. Everyone of you idiots who predicts things on here has no life obviously and none of you ever played a snap of football in your life. keep your mouths closed until AFTER the game otherwise you look like fools

syracuse player | 6:33 p.m. Oct. 30, 2009

ha ha ha ha.i loved that game and it was awsome playen in it!!!!!!!!!!!!we killed sky line.gee.give us some credit.

RE:Cuse Fan | 7:02 p.m. Oct. 30, 2009

Skyline quarterback Chase Dunford will have hinds full in the 5A first round against a stingy Syracuse defense that allows less than 10 points per game.
