Week seven notebook

Not much offense
The Crimson Tide scored 13 points in the first half on just 13 offensive plays.
The Tide had scoring drives of one and two plays.
The first, their first play of the game was a 63-yard bomb from Tyler Harrison to Michael Burke. The second late in the first half, came when Harrison against the wind threw one up on a scramble from his own six, which Burke corraled near midfield and raced into the end zone.

A-C on the other hand
Had two scores in the first half as well. They missed a field goal and had a pass picked off it the end zone with 28 seconds left in the half. At one point, A-C ran 47 offfensive plays to the Tide's 10 in the first half.

Standout stars have big games
The two "Prine Time" Section 3 players in the game -- the Tide's Burke and A-C's Rickey Snyder had big games.
Burke caught five passes for 170 and two scores. Snyder, the leading rusher in Section 3, finished the game with 260 yards and three scores. Snyder had 160 of those yards in the first half, but was held in check in the second half until he broke a 54-yard run late in the game.

Other stars for the Tide
Quarterback Tyler Harrison was 14-20 for 262 yards and two scores, while Nick Nobile caught four passes for 65 yards and tight end Seth Lefever caught three balls for 23 yards. Colmbia rushed for 158 yards for the game, but the six fumbles kept that number down.
On defense, the top tacklers were Lefever and Bryan Flory. Flory, Lefever and Dominic Trout had tackles for losses.

The streak continues
Columbia has not beaten A-C since the end of the 2007 season. In the last two years, the Tide has lost to A-C by a combined total of 15 points.

Just one flag
Columbia was only flagged once in the game for 5 yards.

Other notes
Linebacker Dion Matthews, who missed the first five games with a shoulder injury is probably done for the season after breaking his hand in a junior varsity game, won by the Tide last Monday, over Northern Lebanon. Burke missed the last 17 minutes of the game when he was injured blocking on a run play with 5:23 left in the third quarter.
A-C had drives of 8, 14, 7, 10 and 8 plays in the first half.
