Cocoa's offensive line vs Venice's defensive line will tell the story of that game. As Keem said, Cocoa is returning an extremely veteran offensive line and both of their runningbacks in Malachi Coney and Jaden Brown. They have 3 extremely dangerous receivers in Dayday Farmer, Ryder Varies, and Jayshawn Smith that can take it to the endzone at any moment. Venice is fielding 4 new starters on the defensive line behind edge rushers Elijah Jones and Shamar Littles. With the graduation of Trenton Kintigh and Collin Adkins we will be relying on transfer Ryan Daly from IMG and last years' backup, David Galloway to fill the interior of the D-line. The return of all 3 of our starting linebackers and Deylen Platt is nice. Brycen Fraser will start as the other corner and the Riverview transfer can play at safety or corner. Overall, though, Cocoa should feel good about Venice coming to the Tiger's den so early in the season as that certainly gives them the best chance to defeat them.
