Columbus Lions key in on important matchup with Harrisburg Stampede
After spending the week preparing for the intricacies of the Harrisburg Stampede’s game plan, Lions coach Jason Gibson is only worried about one detail heading into tonight’s game in Harrisburg, Pa.
“I just want to see how our O-line holds up against their defense,” Gibson said. “That’s really the only matchup that matters in this game. If we give our quarterback time, he can make plays. We want to give him time and let athleticism take over.”
But keeping starter Bill Ashburn in the pocket and allowing receivers to exploit their speed may be more difficult for the Lions (3-1) than it has been through the first four games of the season. The Stampede (1-2) are allowing a league-low 31 points per game.
