hunger games tournament GTO vs Quick and the Dead

[Terry43]

The GTO beat the Knights in White Satin to advance to the semi-final game. This sets up today's unexpected battle between The Quick and the Dead and the GTO. The winner meets the Shamrock Bay in Fruit Bowl 32. The loser watches from the electric football cabinet.

For the GTO watch for WR/KR #10. Against the Knights in White Satin #10 had 381 kick return yards and 2 touchdowns. #10 was the game MVP. His 97 yard return of a blocked Field Goal turned the game around. The Knights went from scoring 3 points to being down by 7 points.

 

The Quick and the Dead have a more team-approach to winning. WR/KR #4 had 258 kick return yards and 1 touchdown. HB #23 had 106 yards rushing and 1 touchdown. On defense Free Safety #29 scored a pick six and racked up 3 tackles for lost yards.

For a tribute to Quick and the Dead HB #23 see the next post.

The Quick and the Dead made it to Fruit Bowl 27 and won the game. HB #23 was the MVP of that Fruit Bowl game so the Quick and the Dead bring a bit of swagger to this semi-final game.

I'm really looking forward to this contest. 😃👍💥💫

GTO tie the game at 7 to 7.

 

In slow motion. Quick and the Dead MLB #58 fills the gap but doesn't make the tackle.

Enjoy the Journey.   T43.    ⚡🏈♾️

The Quick and the Dead take back the lead. Courtesy of HB #23.

 

HB #23 gets behind Guard #98 and Center #58 opens the hole. HB #23 kind of misses the hole but he still scores a touchdown.

MLB #58 is a BEAST.

This is a must see tackle by MLB #58 of the Quick and the Dead. #58 fights off the block of GTO FB #21, secures the edge, and makes a textbook Stop Forward Progress Tackle.

 

This play might have picked up 20 yards.

This is the GTO scoring play of an 11-play drive that started at GTO 27 yard line.

The GTO QB #5 drops back and then rolls to his left. All of his receivers are covered except TB #44 coming out of the back field.

Quick and the Dead Stong Safety #43 is coming up fast.

 

To pass or not to pass that is the question.

QB #5 decides to run the ball. He sides steps Strong Safety #43 and...

It doesn't get any better than this❣️

The score is tied 14 — 14. The Quick and the Dead will receive the 2nd Half Kick Off.

But right now they're up against a 4th down and 6 at the GTO 46.

There's no tomorrow.  Punt or go for it? 🤔

 

 

The Quick and the Dead have one of the all time great running backs. There's really no decision.

At Halftime the score is Quick and the Dead 21 and the GTO 14.

I'm going to bed. 😴   Enjoy Halftime    T43    ⚡🏈♾️

Welcome to the Second Half. 

The Quick and the Dead marched the ball down the field and on 1st and 10 on the GTO 29 yard line, HB #23 scored his fourth touchdown of the game.

 

 

For those keeping statistics, HB #23 now has 157 yards on 10 carries.

The GTO Strike Back!

51 yard pass to GTO WR #7. I chose to throw the ball to #7, but both Wide Receivers were open and ended up in the End Zone.

 

Kind of looks like WR #7 has pixie dust coming out of his exhaust pipe.  🤣

Coach Terry43 has to start thinking about the Onside Kick. Do it now, or wait until the 4th Quarter?

The Quick and the Dead are absolutely on 🔥fire.🔥

The Quick and the Dead offense may feature HB #23, but this is a team effort.

Look at the hole the Quick and the Dead Special Team opens for WR / KR #4.

 

🔥On Fire🔥 I tell you. On 1st and Goal at the 8 yard line TB #33 gets into the game.

 

TB #33 carries GTO outside linebacker #53 into the End Zone.

The wheels came off  🎶The Little GTO🎶.

The GTO were down 28 to 42. Running plays on 1st and 2nd down netted -5 yards. So, on 3rd down and 15 on their own 9 yard line QB #5 dropped back into his own End Zone. He scans for an open receiver and there aren't any. Quick and the Dead Strong Safety #43 knocked QB #5 out of the back of the End Zone.

SAFETY

The GTO kicker shanks the Free Kick and the ball travels only 28 yards.

Quick and the Dead WR/KR #4 catches the ball in the air.

 

 

Suddenly the 🔥Quick and the Dead🔥 are up 51 to 28. Game Over. 🔔

What a great game! Love the video work. My favorite play was the defensive play by #58 of The Quick and the Dead! Great stuff Coach T.!

Journey On!

[Terry43]

Thanks Coach Collins. MLB #58 had a lot of memorable tackles. In this clip the GTO run the same play and #58 cleans up wreckage.

I slowed it down to 25%.
