The Crusaders lack of depth requires starting several athletes on both the offensive and defensive units.

Expect the Rams up-tempo, no-huddle, complex offense to both confuse and tire the Crusader defenders before half-time. If Dade Christian manages to score in the contest, it will likely be early in the game. The Rams offensive line is designed to exploit the Crusaders defense. The Rams defensive line will enjoy an even larger advantage when pitted against the Crusader offensive line and may disrupt Dade Christian attempts to sweep the corners. John Carroll out gained Coral Glades 370-2 in last week's 45-3 victory. Dade Christian should keep it closer, especially early in the contest, but expect the Rams to wear down the Crusaders, likely in the second quarter of the contest.
