Join host Chad Choate and Manatee Hurricanes head coach Jacquez Green as they break down a wild 28-21 playoff opener against Charlotte and look ahead to a huge Region 3 semifinal showdown on the road against the 10-1 Cape Coral Seahawks.
- A dominant first half (28-6) vs. a tense second-half scare: what the close finish taught a young Hurricanes squad about finishing all four quarters in the playoffs.
- Keith Smith and the special teams spark, Mason’s big early throws, and how the ‘Canes forced Charlotte out of their run-heavy plan.
- Why Cape Coral (coached by former NFL/UFC player Jalen Watkins) is one of the most athletic teams left in 5A, with an efficient junior QB, two dangerous 100+ carry RBs, and receivers who can take the top off.
- Keys to the game: win up front, control the run game both ways, beat man coverage, and avoid the big play against a Seahawks secondary that lives in Cover 1.
- Travel plans, grass field, weather outlook, and why possessing the football could be the difference in this 3-seed vs. 2-seed matchup.
It’s playoff football at its finest – Manatee hits the road for the first time in Round 2 since 2007 looking to punch a ticket to the regional final!
