I agree with Jim. The Bulldogs have peaked at the right and have learned how to fight back no matter the score!!!

I knew with the rain, snow and cold the Hotchkiss - Limon game would be decided by turnovers. Hotchkiss gave up 3 short-field scores early with Limon managing only 1 long drive of 66 yards in 15 plays to start the 3rd quarter. Down 26-7 with 4:42 left in the 3rd, Hotchkiss scored 3 quick tds to start the 4th up 1-pt at 27-26. They scored 3 more in the 4th for the 47-26 win. If the Dawgs can get by Cedaredge in their semi-final rematch next week, they would probably get a rematch in the Championship with #1 Buena Vista who beat them 18-15 in the second game of the season. Defense and turnovers decided this game. I think they have the incentive & momentum to go all the way.
