Leadership on the field is underrated by most but it is a must in football.

Agreed the only advantage we have is extreme depth, we have 4 backs to rotate as well as ability to rotate linemen but your kids are a team off destiny to me, they play hard with a chip on there shoulder !! I tell you as a father its nice to get to watch 2 games week one with no bad actions by any team envolved which makes for something to be proud of !! GL on the season , dont think ya need luck so I will say well wishes !!

You fellas team is about as balanced on offense as you will ever see in 1 or 2 A imo! Considered that we all expect a collision of Falcons and Stanks in the playoffs " we hope" your balance will be the difference maker !!! Its hard to believe" no offense" yall ever lost to CVille other than the stars aligned for them. Yall keep that play callin like ole Pride seen with his own eyes and yall will be in Cookeville !!! On a side note yall got the nicest group of folk Ive seen i a long time at a game !!!

Clinton's run defense is much improved, but I'm still not impressed with our pass defense and that's what CAK used to be known for. I'm picking CAK 28 - 7

Yeah I definetly see us giving Beech a good game. As long as we see improvement that's all you can ask. Omaha is right we could quite possibly be the best 6-4 or 7-3 team in the state come playoff time. By the time playoffs start the freshman QB will be a lot more settled and who knows we may pull of a few wins in the playoffs. Either way its Henry County Football and it excites me regardless. These coaches will figure it out. Our coach always preaches that's why he schedules tough opponents in the non region so they can show you what you need to work on and get better at. It's absolutely true! So be it if we go 6-4 or 7-3. Haywood showed us we need pretty good work on the o-line. So let's work there and get that headed in a positive direction which I know the coaching staff will. With Counce, Jelks, and Muench I feel like by the last half of the season u wont recognize the o-line from week 1.

Barney I myself would like to know. As it sounds like OR and Clinton might be a good game this year.

I agree with everything you said.

They gonna be playing with cattle prods?

We could be the best 6-4 team in the state by playoff time, and that very well could be the case. I think we win 1-3 of the non-region games though and finish 7-3. This week will be tough, but I do think we match up better with Beech and will see some improvement.

Lol. Eastwood is a whole lot badder than me. Thanks for the kind words and hopefully Peabody and Lake County can bring home the gold ball this year. Nothing like small town football. PS anyone that attacks my Falcons I will come down hard on. Lol. Good luck to the tide.

I agree with everything you just said.

I am perfectly relaxed. The O-line isn’t bad, but it is very much a work in progress.

Gordy had maybe 3 penalties all night long

Powell 41 AC 10

Southtowner, that Andrew Luck man has stolen your schtick on Sergeant Southtowner!!! I just saw on NFL Network where his " letter to his mother from Sergeant Luck" was shown on the air... yours are better.

Peabody does start a bunch both ways but we also have players that rotate at positions also. We did have 2nd string third string players in in second half and yes baugus was still running I have no idea why. The only thing I can think of is third string qb maybe wasn’t ready. The second string qb is a wr/rb. I’m guessing coach didn’t want fumbles. We were suppose to scrimmage Haywood this year. They backed out due to just getting a new coach. As far as depth Milan starts 2 players both ways and that didn’t effect the outcome. Apparently we are 35-14 better or we wouldn’t have won 35-14. I do think Milan or really good and they have a bunch of talented players. I think they weren’t prepared for what Peabody did. Milan’s coaches will get it figured out.

I dont like to brag but last week I was pretty much spot on with the way the game could turn out. I knew Haywood was a beast and if we had too many turnovers and didnt bring our A game we would lose the game. That's exactly what happened. Ok now on to this week. Beech/HC! I expect fully that our coaches will get things headed in the right direction starting this week....now I'm not saying we go to Shackle Island and win but we will look better overall. I didnt think this would be a rebuild year but it kinda is! Dont forget last week we was without our big time RB Jayln Foster. Not sure how much difference it would have made but I know Jayln wouldnt fumble the ball 3 times!!! We are without him again this week against Beech! I think we keep it close in this game but we shall see the outcome. Dont get too down on last weeks game because Haywood is going to be in the 4A championship in Cookeville come December! With a young team without our star RB and with a Freshman QB and a young o-line we played them well overall. It was 10-7 at halftime remember. A fumble in the 2nd half put Haywood with a very short field which they scored a TD. Keep ur head up Patriot Nation it ain't over!!!

cool video just posted thought you guys would like it

Don't forget Wildcat fans there is more Oak Ridge vs Hardin Valley football to be played at Blankenship Field on Monday evening. Freshmen start at 5:30. Junior Varsity start at 7:00.

I witnessed something intersesting friday at LC, I was comi g thru the gate as your team was coming into the endzone for the intro onto the field and they seemed very confident, not cocky, also watchimg them interact with each other was like watching our Tidemen !!! You have a group of kids that are brothers on that field and off "it shows" they care for each other and they arent playing to beat a team they are playing for community for family for all of lil ole Tiptonville and Lake county !!! Those that dont understand what I meen never will , Trenton isnt a rich area although theres some money , LC and PHS are more similar than most realize and it shows, especially a annoying fan base on the T !!!! HaHa yall know its true !!!!! In closing I will say you earned a fan in me of your program and especillay your kids amd the way they handle themselves !! All this nice stuff is true and I meen it but I still imagine LC1968 being like clint eastwood in Grand Tarino amd that scares me hahahahahahahah

Unfortunately, Clinton will have a tough time scoring unless AC D is the real deal. CAK doesn’t look great either. I say 21-18 CAK

I really wasn’t impressed with either QB in this game. But, 2 solid Ds and a 2 hr delay can create issues so we shall see how season goes. Way too many penalties which will obviously be a point of emphasis for next few weeks. Both teams looked big and strong for this area football. They should be fine here on out barring injuries.

I like Powell in this one. I say Powell 28-10

Best part...sitting at the table with their coach! Donkey’s feet gonna be wore out this year!

Man oh man me thinks this is the hardest game to pick this week or heck maybe the season !!! This game has athletes all over the field and Meigs played imo a bit below what they are capable of but when it mattered bowed up !! GB never was in a game and thats hard to even type , so with all these athletes its really simple to me, coaching and preparation, sorry to say its this simple but I think it really is !!!

If them Middle TN think that game was a big crowd.......they ain't seen nothing like an Alcoa vs Maryville game. Not even close. Blackman has very nice Stadium ,field and parking. They were a very friendly host! Had a great time!

I don't think DB is much better than last years 4-6 team. Hard to judge from the TH game because the Vikings aren't very good this year. The team size and speed is pretty much average. The secondary is embarrassing, as usual. I think it'll be close and could go either way but I'd give the odds to Oak Ridge. OR - 28 DB - 17

After week one 1 Pearl Cohn 2 Hillsboro 3 East 4 Cane Ridge 5 Stratford 6 Maplewood 7 Hillwood 8 McGavock 9 Overton 10 Whites Creek 11 Hunters Lane 12 Antioch 13 Glencliff

Pirate mike o garuntee they aint any Grundy people that will talk to us this week. They are real mad up there cause that Childress man found out that Hayworth man had that Wattenburger mans boys on his bus. That Hayworth man must have thought he was still in the SEC. You think im joking but im not.

AMEN!We were beat from the first whistle.Loudon flat out wanted it and came and got it!Whipped us all over.ITS DONE.Tiger huntin time!

In cognito!

Did DB take down the sign?

The deep kicks as well as the two hits at the 15 on his kicks that got everyone fired up help to change the course of the game. His "short" kick went to the 17 which was normally a deep kick for us.

Thanks for the info. I was in the dark about them too just like Chargerfan. Covington offence didn't look to good in the jamboree but they didn't play Mr. Marcus Hayes ( Mr. Football Finalist ) . They looked a lot better Friday night .The Defense looked good in both outings. Munford had -5 rushing yards. Hopefully it want be a tough out for the Chargers but if so it will prepare them for a tough region 7-3A

Lol. If thats the case The cows should just pack it in knowing they always Lose to Greeneville Btw 2009 team started 1-3 and finished 11-4 State Runnerups. They accomplished more than Ac ever will!

lol......PRETTY GOOD ASSESSMENT I'D SAY...so here's mine....Greeneville lost but COULD have won but they didnt, even though they could have, but didnt, therefor, they could be undefeated right now but they aren't because they lost a game they very well could have won. Meanwhile, Boone must be really loaded since they killed a team they could have lost to, but didnt. Thusly, it should be pretty clear to everyone here that Greeneville will mercy rule boone, but maybe not, even though they should, but might possibly wont, although they are totally capable.

This in and of itself is what changed the momentum and tempo of the game. Making Sequatchie start inside their 15 twice and at the 20 on 3 consecutive kickoffs was huge. We flipped the field on them, got a turnover, cut out the penalties and hung on to the ball.

Old Pirate thought the Indians showed toughness and showed sportsmanship. Respect earned, hope the players realize it.

I didn’t know that o&b was there. Lol

We caught your spy Greenback folks. They fixed up like a Tiger but still smelled of a reservation so it was easy to spot. Can pick it up after the game. Fortunately no real Tigers were hurt during this excursion.

Saw it earlier today in a picture. Freakin awesome

They will be fine. Some growing pains to go through first. What everyone needs to accept is this team is not last years group. We lost a ton to graduation. Last year the younger players fed from the energy and grit our seniors had. Now we need some players step up and start creating the energy and grit. I would start with #4. He is a baller.

Will the new school be called Bellevue High School?

Actually that's the TC folks who do that, presumably because SC refused to schedule them. The Gordonsville faithful refer to SC by their real name...Carthage.

That game was pretty close until late. From what I'm hearing, LC's "do it all" player had a concussion last night.

I saved @Shadroach a seat. He never showed up...

One look at our region schedule refutes your comments. Do not throw rocks in a glass house my friend.

He definitely knows more about it Than me. I did know they lost two studs so I was wondering who they were reloading with. Could have people right behind them to step up as far as I know
