My football coach told me i am starting FB and LB this year?

im a bit nervous fullback and halfback run the ball about the same amount were playing are rivals who got a good ping game but sucks at defense. This would be a normal game for me but i ledt this school 2 years because i didnt fit in and was bullied here man i fit in im one of the captians for JV football im dating the JV cheerleading captian i went hunting with one of my buddys from there and they he said they got it out for me meaning they know i am getting the ball i can take them but last time we played them there was a fight bettween both teams that had tobe broken up by cops. I not nervous and i know my boys got my back but anyone got any tips on how to zone these losers out they trash talk alot
