Trinity Christian at Jackson Christian........Huge game

[ReitzFan]

It's hard  to believe that 10 weeks of the high school football season are already in the books.  For many, this coming Friday night will be the last time they ever set foot on a football field as a player.  The time goes way too fast.

 

Anyway, on to the subject at hand.  TCA invades Jackson Christian this coming Friday night.  At stake is a first round playoff game at home.  The winner of this game will host either Riverside or Scotts Hill (the later provided Hickman Co. defeats Lewis Co.)  The vanquished will have to travel to one of three possible opponents including Waverly, Lewis Co., or Riverside (the later provided Hickman Co. defeats Lewis Co.).

 

TCA will limp into this game as three front line starters were injured and did not play in the Scotts Hill  game.  Jackson Christian comes in on the heels of a solid thumping of Gibson County. 

 

Two neighborhood rivals hook it up one more time in the last region game between these two before JC heads back to D2 next season. 

 

What say you the faithful Lion or Eagle poster?  What about you the football fan in general?  How do you see this game shaking out?

Going to be a close game. It depends on injury situation. JC is a very, very scrappy team and has drastically improved over the season. If TCA can get those 3 starters back I think they win by a TD, if they don't, JC by 14. JC's RB is playing lights out!

This could be a barn burner.

This game is going to bring the best out of both teams. When you say back yard brawl this is as close as it can get. We are literally in each other's back yards. Interested to see how the practices go this week. Also need to get guys healed. 5 days and counting.

I'm not going to harp on injury's, because at this late stage of the season most every team is limping a little. I do understand that TCA is a young team. However, I do believe I heard Coach Roland say, that not one JC O lineman was over 15. However, when they have been matched up with an opponent that's not a State powerhouse, they have fared well. JC none region schedule has been as tough as anyone's in the state. Will that experience help our very young line? I don't know. What I do know is, TCA wants to win just as bad as us, and they will give it 100% and never give up. They're also very well coached and   if TCA can contain our QB,  it will be a long night for us, and I'll have to find a new Sunday School Class. lol... Now, the Wife and I, are going out of town for a few days to enjoy the Fall foliage and there is no cell service or internet. So I just want to say, if we lose, than I'm just glad it's to Trinity and I have a lot of respect for the School, Players and Fans. ...Go Eagles!

when your starting QB starting linebacker and starting offense and defensive lineman miss the game last week Iwill harp on that. In 2a football and team of 33 kids it is huge. If that was JC it would be a little more than limping. Do I say that as an excuse no just a fact. As far as the game it could go either way. With young teams never know who will show up. Curious to see how practice goes that is a big indicator Edited October 25, 2016 by BigEdMo

I agree EdMo, if Buehler was out JC would be done and wouldn't have a chance. No doubt, everyone has injuries this time of the year but if depends on WHO is injured. If all the key players are there for both teams it will be a heck of a game!

Good luck to both teams! Hope for an injury free game!

Hippie Radio 105.3, the station that carries TCA games, can be heard in Halls.  When I called the TCA and Halls game, my fiancé had to stay in the car cause of a foot injury.  She listened to me on our car radio.  I also picked up the station in the press box with a portable radio.  Take your radio to Halls and enjoy the TCA and JC game.
