Let's see how rusty La Costa is after a week off. TP will be fired up for this game.
Last time torrey did a good job early at keeping the d off of their qb. LCC needs to establish there defensive prowess early and find a way to run the ball effectively ...FOR THE ENTIRE GAME!!!! Torrey may be fired up but I think two weeks to prepare for a team that they already know extremely well, combined with the fact that tp found a way to shut them down in the second half should give LCC plenty of motivation to make up for their rustiness.
