(slideshow of photos at bottom of article including link to see the images thumbnail style)
This game was an epic display of Gridiron Guts from both teams.  The Ravens came out on Defense first hoping to make a statement right out the gates. The Ravens were not the only ones with that idea in mind. The Bulldawgs came out firing with a Run and Shoot style offense powered by an all star classic RB who plays QB too.

A few runs and some pass plays later lead to a 6-0 score in the first quarter. Would the Ravens repeat a dismal performance against the Bulldawgs? Only the offense could determine that. Defense for the Ravens had been playing solid during the tournament but their had been some issues at filling the Qb slot. Garrett Kendziera #12 a Western Mass Warrior joined the offense alongside talents of fb Ron Tyson, Justin"juice" Bledsoe and receivers such as Morris, steve cirelli and Tony Lingard.  A conservative offense did not prove much to a Hungry Dog pound from the Bulldawgs who came firing off the ends.

Defense would be determined to go back and hold the Bulldawgs. Adjustments were being made but it seemed although personal changed the situation didn't leading to another Bulldawg score.
Garrett Kendziera and Cirelli got hot before the half ended connecting multiple times and Leading to a the Ravens first score.

12-6 Bulldawgs to end the Half.
Ravens Receive the second half.

Coach Jay Davis opened up the play book and fired away. It was going to take a solid offensive run to put the Ravens closer. Juice ran between the tackles with blocking from 44 Tyson.
Unfortunately it would lead to a punt.
After giving the Bulldawgs Qb hell. The Bulldawgs would turn the ball over on downs and Garret would come gunning with the Bledsoe. Bledsoe established his dominance and made a dash for 6.
12-12 Tie game 1:00 min left
Ravens failed to convert and the Bulldawgs got a chance to mount a come back and stop the Ravens.
Defense Defense Fellas!
 Bulldawgs had a tight passing game the whole game but when it was down to the wire they couldn't convert.

New comer E Banks said "put me in pick a spot I'll play it". While the Ravens already have a gruesome front 5 in the Trenches with Eric Gifford, Wayne Warsaw , Will Czevekus and Scott Andruk and Adam Dixon speed would make the diference. The Bulldawgs had it and the Ravens pulled it from their sidelines with E banks. He was laying hats on people and flying to the ball.

Eventually the Ravens would have to rally one more time around their offense. It would take a team effort to walk out as Victors. in overtime the Ravens received the ball first on the 25 and what seemed to be 3 and far became 1st and goal with Garret evading Tacklers.


A late hit on that play would bring the Ravens closer for the Kill. "Juice" would get the ball one more time and with blocking from the front five and a determined fullback Juice bounced out of a closing hole and made his own path to the endzone!

18-12
Subbing Qb Al will would punch in the two pt conversion off a bached play to help seal the victory.
20-12
Defense-Defense!
One more time. 4 plays close out the show. Ravens!
And they did. Will, Banks and Gifford would prove too much with Blitzes from Court "HD"Southerland who was harrassing the Qb the whole game . Two plays down off incomplete passes and the qb is still scrambling. 3 and still to go. Bulldawgs need a score to keep ot alive. Their third attempt was disrupted as  a tackle in the back field. Was made. 4th and the game. Qb #3 had one last chance to atleast get a first. Pressure ensuing a pass down the field which was Denied by Jamar Rawles, Joe"Ghost"Burns and John "L Train" Lavigne. What looked to be interception was an incomplete pass game over Ravens win it 20-12 in Overtime.

Great game Ravens and Bulldawgs. Best wishes to #1 speedy recovery we'll love the game but have respect for those who play it!

Stay tuned as the Ravens make their way to KingsBay in Brooklyn on 4-24-2010 at 5pm
