Class S Semis: #3 Ansonia vs. #2 Montville


Class S Semifinal: No. 3 Ansonia (10-1) vs. No. 2 Montville (10-1): The Chargers bounced back from their Thanksgiving Day defeat to Naugatuck with a big win over Hyde in the Class S quarterfinals. Dobbs, who played his last game in an Ansonia uniform at Jarvis Stadium, had some breathing room and took advantage of it. The question is, will Ansonia's line be able to open up holes for Dobbs against a very tough Montville defense?

Montville has a stud RB of its own in Tyler Girard-Floyd. Girard-Floyd rushed for over 319 yards and 5 TDs in the Class S quarters in a 55-28 win over Cromwell. Their other playmaker, Skyler McNair (awesome name, by the way), rushed for 189 yards and 3 TDs on 13 carries. Montville averages 42 points per game. Ansonia averages close to 41 points per game. All year we've been saying that Ansonia's passing game has to click in order for them to win big games. Is this the game Chudwick and company suddenly break out?

 
Obviously, Ansonia must stop the Indians' rushing attack if it intends on playing for the Class S title. Both teams feature awesome ground games so the key will be: Whose defense will have to step up and get the win?

Who ya got?

Picks: Kyle- Montville, 40-27. Remmy- Ansonia, 27-22.
