I revived the Demonic Sect in North America
Chapter 97 Crushing Victory!
In rugby, if the ball is not caught by the attacking team and falls to the ground, it is considered a dead ball.
After the ball goes dead, the shot clock stops, and this shot does not count as any advance yardage.
This means that the opportunity to attack was wasted!
That's the most basic mistake a quarterback can make!
A huge sigh immediately erupted from the stands.
The referee's voice came through the microphone:
"Third gear, still size 9!"
On the defending side, the priests were practically grinning from ear to ear.
The already tense atmosphere on the offensive side of the Cavaliers was further exacerbated.
This is a crucial step, in this dangerous area in front of our own terminal.
If this attack fails to gain enough yards, they will face a dilemma on fourth down.
If they launch another strong attack and fail, it's practically giving away points.
The only option left is to punt, wasting an attacking opportunity.
More importantly, conceding would confirm the Pastors' previous underestimation of the team when predicting the outcome before the game.
The Cavaliers' offense was a mess.
No wonder people look down on them!
This is undoubtedly a major blow to the team's morale!
Jack called his team's first timeout.
He gathered the offensive team members, especially the forwards and running backs, together in a circle, helmet to helmet, and gave instructions at lightning speed, gesturing routes in the air with his hands.
The River Valley High School fans in the stands were completely silent, all watching with tense anticipation.
Li Ang's gaze was fixed on his good brother Bruce.
He saw Bruce's helmet twitch slightly as he listened to Jack's instructions, the veins on both sides of his neck bulging out, and his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
It was a resolute decision to stake all one's will and strength on the gamble.
The pause has ended.
The players returned to the field.
This time, River Valley High School set up a traditional I-shaped formation.
The running back stood directly behind the quarterback.
This time, the Cavaliers' offensive intentions were very clear.
We need to rely on our offensive line to pave the way, to make a head-on, hard-fought run and take those crucial 9 yards!
This is a battle of tough guys!
"Ready, set, kick off!"
Center Bruce once again passed the ball steadily to Jack.
Jack didn't retreat; instead, he quickly turned and passed the ball to the running back who started from behind.
The running back received the ball and charged towards Bruce's left side without hesitation!
Bruce let out a beastly roar, unleashing all his power at that moment!
He no longer simply held off his opponents.
Instead, he pushes off the ground with both legs, twists his core, and uses his shoulders to push against the opponent's defensive interceptor's chest.
He actually pushed his heavy opponent backward, causing him to stagger back two steps!
They managed to tear a narrow but deadly gap in the opponent's solid defense!
This is a perfect display of his personal strength and will.
The stands immediately erupted in a united chant of righteous indignation from the Cavaliers fans:
"Well done, Bruce!"
"Charge, Bruce!"
"Bruce, let's go!"
Everyone seemed to see a glimmer of hope for a comeback through Bruce's earth-shattering collision.
The running backs didn't waste this precious gap.
He lowered his head, strode quickly, and darted through the gap Bruce had created!
Suddenly, the view opened up before him; he had broken through the chaotic area of entangled forward lines!
However, the Pastors' defensive coordination and discipline taught the Cavaliers another lesson.
Another linebacker who had been watching this direction, along with a safety coming from behind to cover, appeared as if they had practiced countless times, and instantly came from both flanks to cover.
Without any hesitation, just as the running back reached the 20-yard line, the two men surrounded him from the left and right.
He fell heavily to the ground again!
Dust and grass clippings flew everywhere.
The referee whistle blows.
The third attack has ended.
The referee announced in a cold voice:
"Third down, 5 yards!"
In the stands, Cavaliers fans immediately erupted in groans.
First tier, 1 code.
Second gear, 0 yards.
The third tier is 5 sizes.
It only adds up to 6 yards.
The fourth down requires advancing 4 yards to refresh the attacking opportunity and regain the first down!
If the advance fails, possession will be handed directly to the Pastors from a perfect position just 21 yards from their own end zone.
The opponent could almost immediately enter shooting range and threaten to score.
This risk is too great!
It's almost equivalent to suicide.
Without hesitation, Captain Jack immediately made a hand gesture to the special operations team below the stage who were responsible for the punt.
Subsequently, the entire offensive team of River Valley High School was substituted, and the special operations team responsible for punts came on.
In rugby, a team is always divided into three completely independent groups.
Only one team will play at a time.
For example, in an attack round, the attacking group goes up.
In a defensive round, bring in the defensive team.
Special teams are only needed in rounds that involve kick-offs, counter-attacks, punts, and shots, where the ball is being kicked back and forth.
Without a doubt, in the very first offensive round, to voluntarily give up the offensive opportunity and have the special operations team punt was a painful and frustrating choice.
Especially when the opponent provokes you at the start of the game.
However, this is the only correct choice the Cavaliers must make at this moment.
A sigh of helplessness and understanding rose from the stands.
"Sigh... I still have to punt..."
"Borsett! He pushed the ball 6 yards down third down! What kind of hook shot is that?!"
"What else can we do but punt? A fourth-down attack to four yards? From our own 20-yard line? Are you crazy?!"
"This is so damn frustrating! They chose defense before the game, clearly looking down on our offense! And here we are, proving them right!"
"Bruce was really pushing hard just now... he pushed that guy at least three or four yards! It was so exciting! And what happened? He just couldn't catch his breath afterwards! If the running back had been a little faster, he definitely could have gone 10 yards in that pull!"
Amid a chorus of boos, the punter took a deep breath in that suffocating position 20 yards out in his own end zone.
He was under immense psychological pressure. He took a running start, swung his leg, and kicked the ball high into the pastors' half of the field.
The ball flew through the air for about four or five seconds, tracing an arc, before landing and bouncing and rolling forward on the grass.
He was eventually tackled by a Pastors player near the Pastors' 35-yard line.
The referee blows the whistle, signaling a change in possession!
Fordham Prep Reverends will get their first offensive opportunity from their own 35-yard line!
This position even gave them a 20-yard advantage over the Cavaliers' starting position!
In contrast, the River Valley High School Knights' first offensive drive, after three downs, only advanced a mere 6 yards.
Ultimately, they were forced to abandon the game.
To hand over possession of the ball to someone else.
The first attack was, to put it mildly, a complete failure.
From choosing a counterattack to executing the attack, they were constrained at every turn.
Without a doubt, this was a crushing defeat!
A blatant display of overwhelming power!
The Cavaliers' morale was immediately dealt a heavy blow.
Discontent, anxiety, and worry rose and fell from the stands:
"Damn it! Starting from 15 yards, this opening is a nightmare!"
"What are the attacking team doing?! Bruce fought so hard to open that hole, and now they can't keep up the momentum?!"
"Damn it, now all the pressure is on the defense. If they can't stop it..."
