Three-time defending European champion Ansbach will be trying for a DODDS-Europe record 29th straight victory when it takes the field Friday night.Ansbach coach Marcus George, whose 2002-2005 Ansbach teams set the record of 28 straight the Cougars tied last Saturday, said supplanting those Cougar exes atop the consecutive-victory list won’t be easy."We expect a tough game," George said Sunday. "Jim Davis is a sound coach and has a solid, athletic team this year — big linemen and fast, athletic skill players."George cited running back Forte Cunningham as an example of the kind of player his team will have to subdue to put the ’06-’09 Cougars atop the record book."They have a strong running game with a nice blend of passing," George said.As does Ansbach, he might have added. The Cougars’ running-back rotation of All-Europe senior Carter Gunn, junior Alex Moya, and senior Shaun Francis has accounted for 13 touchdowns, while All-Europe senior quarterback Dominic Barrale has run for three TDs, passed for three and returned an interception for yet another TD. Ansbach (4-0) is averaging 48 points per game.Davis, whose Barons (3-1) are working on a three-game winning streak, is hoping to trim that number."If we are in it," he said Tuesday, "I think the game will be low-scoring. It will only be high-scoring if they run away with it."
