This will make you sad:

12/16, 279 yards, 3 TDs, 3 sacks

247 Play by Play, game against a good GHSA team, North Cobb.

- North Cobb scored on its first possession so Raiola will be playing from behind to start

Play-action pass on first down to Jordan Allen
1/1, 29 yards

Play-action pass on first down goes to Devin Williams for an easy score. Two plays, two completions, six points
2/2, 54 yards, 1 TD

7-6 Buford

- North Cobb has some dudes. Got a running back going to Clemson. Quarterback has thrown a few dimes already.

14-7 North Cobb

Dylan having to play from behind tonight, which is fun to get to see

2nd-and-11 Raiola probably sat in there a little long and takes an 8-yard sack

3rd-and-20: Raiola gives a 50-50 ball to Tyshun White that’s completed for 21 yards. First down.
3/3, 75 yards, 1 TD, 1 sack

14-7 North Cobb, end of first quarter

2nd-and-10: Beautiful play-action medium shot with great touch to Jordan Allen for 23 yards.
4/4, 98 yards, 1 TD, 1 sack

Play action screen that picks up 18. Making it look easy.
5/5, 116 yards, 1 touchdown, 1 sack

Raiola is making it look reeeeeal easy. 6-yard TD pass in the seam.
6/6, 122 yards, TDs, 1 sack

14-14 in the second Q

- Buford gets it right back on the fumbled kickoff. Raiola starting from the 24-yard line with short field.

First-and-10: first incompletion. Hits Jordan Allen, ball pops up in the air, almost intercepted then almost a miraculous catch from KJ Bolden
6/7, 122 yards, 2 TDs, 1 sack

Third-and-6: Raiola tries to squeeze one in a tight window to a tight end. Falls incomplete. Settles for FG.
6/8, 122 yards, 2 TDs, 1 sack

17-14 Buford with 9 to go in the second Q

- Another North Cobb touchdown. Buford already allowed more points than it did through its scrimmage and first two weeks behind.
- Selfishly, I’m glad because it probably means I came to a game where Raiola will be utilized a lot.

21-17 North Cobb

3rd-and-3: play-action deep shot to Devin Williams who makes a nice grab goes for 49 yards down to the 4
7/9, 171 yards, 2 TDs, 1 sack

Justin Baker punches it in on the next play. 24-21 Buford

Dylan Raiola just took his second sack on the night. Not much more he could’ve done there, though. Pocket immediately broke down. He probably tried to do too much to get out of it, so it did result in a 16-yard loss.
7/9, 171 yards, 2 TDs, 2 sacks

Second half about to get underway

Dylan is sacked again. Play-action gets blown up and he’s blindsided. Really nothing he could do there.
7/9, 171 yards, 2 TDs, 3 sacks

3rd-and-long: Raiola take a deep shot that falls out of reach of Devin Williams, questionable DPI no-call.
7/10, 171 yards, 2 TDs, 3 sacks

Buford 24-21 with 8:43 to go in the third

- Is Buford OL as bad as they seem?
- It’s not great
- They’re undersized and just not that athletic…
- You sound like my HS basketball coach talking about me

Quick screen to Jordan Allen on first down
8/11, 179 yards, 2 TDs, 3 sacks

Justin Baker scores on the next play on a 37-yard run

Buford 31-21 with 5:48 to go in the third Q

Raiola back out there

2nd-and-6: Hits Devin Williams on a dig for 8 yards to pick up a first down
9/12, 187 yards, 2 TDs, 3 sacks

Buford 31-21 headed to the fourth Q

1-and-10: Hits Jordan Allen on a check down that goes 28 yards
10/13, 215 yards, 2 TDs, 3 sacks

Play-action screen that should’ve been a DPI falls incomplete
10/14, 215 yards, 2 TDs, 3 sacks

Third down coming up

3rd-and-11: 14-yard pass to Jordan Allen for a first down
11/15, 229 yards, 2 TDs, 3 sacks

Rushing touchdown from an underclassman on the next play

38-21 Buford with 9:33 to go

- Is the Buford offensive line a case they are just good run blockers and poor in pass protection or just bad overall?
- I think they are improving. They lost a 2025 offensive tackle Nick Brooks (going to be a name to remember) who moved back to Iowa. That didn’t help.
- what they lack in athleticism they make up for in lack of size

3rd-and-8: Dylan Raiola 50-yard Bomb to KJ Bolden for the score that will put this one out of reach
12/16, 279 yards, 3 TDs, 3 sacks

Buford 45-21

I know you love me :)
 
McKinley to $aTm$
yeah man.. i don't believe the he will flip talk.. seems distance and the smaller size of CS won him over. It would take a meltdown for him to open up again imo
 
Oklahoma landed another defensive lineman from the state of Texas, earning a commitment from consensus four-star defensive lineman Nigel Smith II. Smith represents their fourth defensive line commitment of the 2024 cycle. He picked Oklahoma over of Texas, Texas A&M, and Penn State.

That completes our ILB room for 2024:

1, 5, 11 per On3.
 
Nice win yesterday I was impressed
#Texasstillcanestabagofdicks

Wanna have a chance at playing college ball? This isn't how you get that chance.

 
OU going to sign the best DL class in the Country.

He was never on the Texas wish list, so I think you need to aim that else where

He is very interesting. I was hoping Texas had a shot. His mom has a range of a 3 toed sloth, so he was never leaving the state. So potential. He is probably the biggest boom or bust guy. Totally worth the risk though

I know the star whores won’t agree, but the one guy I want from your class is Jayden Jackson

Yeah Jackson seems legit.. like I would want him over anyone in their class

Okoye, if he had his mommas blessing, would be a Vol right now. But he's a very protected kid and his momma did not want him to leave far from home. I'm just enjoying all the ou twitter on how this kid is already terrific.. despite him playing in a 7 on 7 class of football.. a year ago they were making fun of Arch for his small school competition.. well Private in LA might as well be 5A compared to what Okoye plays in..

Guess we'll see how this plays out in '25

This will be the best defensive line class I can ever remember. And still think we flip Williams Nwarni.
