Scoreboard: Tuscaloosa-area high school football Week 9 scoreboard
“Absolutely it lets us see that our work actually working, we’re doing what we’re supposed to and it's ending up good for our team,” senior offensive lineman Jordan Rodgers said. For the offensive line that has been creating rushing performances like this one make it all seem worth it. Northside rushed for more than 280 yards and four touchdowns. The Rams did not throw a pass during the second half. Northside's second drive of the second half was a 16-play, 96-yard drive that took more than nine minutes off the clock. “I think we had a 16-play drive, something ridiculous, 95-yard drive that ate the clock and kept the ball away from them.” “The offensive line did a great job,” coach Chris Hilliker said.
It's all a part of the plan for Northside, which uses its offensive line to create running lanes for McNutt and Green. Quarterback Braden Green ran for 88 yards and two touchdowns and added 43 passing yards and a score to Logan Sullivan. Jace McNutt’s 130 yards and two touchdowns led the Rams rushing attack. SAMANTHA - Northside football (8-1) used another big rushing performance Friday to beat Hale County (4-5), 42-7.
