When Hewitt-Trussville has the ball...
Look for the Huskies to keep giving the ball to their two backs. Goodwin has speed and quickness, while Jackson has the power that can break tackles on any run. The Huskies passing game with Carrutt has picked up with big plays to receiver Omari Kelly in the second half of the season. Getting Jackson in the open field with screen plays have played big. Goodwin can break a long run any play. Goodwin had a big game on the ground against James Clemens last week. 

When Thompson has the ball...
As the Huskies want to run the football, Thompson likes to throw the ball and get the football to their playmakers. JB Mitchell, Ryan Peppins, Tre Roberson and Sam Reynolds can make the big play at anytime on the field. They can turn a short pass for a long touchdown catch and run or go deep on any play. Peppins caught a long ball the last time the two teams met. After Thompson gets the lead, the ball goes into Jarrett Crockett hands for carries to run out the clock. Crockett can catch the ball out of the backfield so he is a weapon in the passing game.
