Let's back the A-train up a second. I don't think in any way that yesterday was a true gauge of Henderson. The Reddies offense is a good run-pass balance, and I think their D is solid. Do they have some weaknesses on both sides of the ball that could be exploited? Yes, but I'm not sure the game against Harding is a good indicator regarding any Henderson D weakness because Harding is unique offensively. As for the O weaknesses, I think Henderson has already faced all but one of the Ds that can stop them. The last remaining D I think that is a threat to the Reddies right now is Ouachita and that is solely because it's a rivalry game.
Having said that, Henderson has to go out and prove it over the next four games.
One other thing to note, Henderson tends to be a team that gets up for tough road games, but seems to have problems doing the same at home. I think this year is a perfect example:
- Shootout win against Southern Arkansas at home
- Tough win against Southeastern Oklahoma in Durant
- Blowout loss against Harding at home
Keep in mind they play in Russellville, in Shawnee, and across the ravine--I don't know why, but it seems the Reddies play better across the street too.
So, I think Henderson can finish out 10-1, but again, they're going to have to prove it over the next four weeks.
