Halftime commentary

Poly better figure a few things out to get back in the game. Tesoro has won every facet of the game to this point, and it's a positive for the 'Rabbits that they only trail 7-0 at halftime.

The biggest thing Poly has to get going is its one-dimension (err no-dimensional) offense, which has netted 29 yards passing 15 yards rushing for 44 total yards on 23 plays. Poor field position, by an offense that can't move the ball, has put the defense's back against the wall.

The defense, which gave up just 106 yards so far, might break under more pressure in the second half if the offense can't begin to help out. If a bad thing can be said about the Poly defense is its inability to put much pressure on Tesoro QB Robbie Picazzo.

Poly has 24 minutes to get it together or its season is over.
