<So you'd rather lose Turner, Tutt, Nickens, Skule before Boose?!? I agree <Boose is better than Richbourg, but the difference in production between <those 2 is way smaller than the other top players and their backups.
Look at the first time these two schools squared off, Boose ran for a ridiculous amount of yardage. He is the one back they have, with the exceptions of Nickens-Yzer who I don't think can carry the ball because of the cast, that can run people over. Westfield's strength on their defense is physicality, they would prefer that type of game than the one this past weekend against a pass heavy offense like LB was.
I just think that while Turner, Tutt, and Richbourg are all very skilled and productive, not having the bullish run style of Boose will have a greater impact than if any of the afore mentioned players were not suited up. I've watched both these teams play, they're both loaded with talent, Centreville of course more so, but the thing that stands out on film with Westfield is they seem to love slugfests. There just is no other back in this area that I've seen who runs like Boose, he's just that much of a beast.
Once again, just my opinion and you don't have to agree, I just don't believe this is going to be a one sided game like most posts predict.
