Does Goodpasture have a radio station that broadcast the games..I am stuck in Murfreesboro and can't make it to the game but would like to listen to it.

I agree...We need to learn to pass the ball. We get in these games such as HC were we are not running the ball well and yet we stick to that for the whole game because the passing game is not there. I realize running is our bread and butter under the wing-t but somethings gotta give. Goodpasture runs the wing-t but they threw on us last year in the playoffs. We saw how succesful that was. It opened up their running game in the 2nd half. I think Sharp is a good coach but until he learns that he needs to shift some focus to passing he will never be a great coach. The threat of a pass will only help our running game! Congrats to Dakota Crews for winning Mr. Football!

Not that it matters....but how many players do you have that should be playing at E. Hickman. My understanding is...and could be wrong...you guys are pretty much playing with your 4a squad still...only the ones who wouldn't get playing time went to East. If true ..the tssaa won't allow it for long and your win isn't as impressive. As far as smacking us in the mouth..not much difference in stats. I still think 9 outta 10 games LC would win. HC had a good game plan and I will be pulling for them next week against Goodpasture.

Lewis County should win big in this one. Looking over the schedule this season..it does look like a 10-0 season. It looks like Hickman County is suppose to be our biggest challenge left this season. They are in the Top 10 on the current AP Poll so they must be a pretty good team.. I really thought at first they would be a cupcake since their school split. I was impressed by their Marshall County score. I'll still take my panthers for a perfect season....and before anyone says anything again about the playoffs and us not beating the privates....I already know we don't have a legit chance at winning state. Take a look at Goodpasture...2-0 so far against 5a teams..I don't think the private school mutiplier thing is working to well. They are even better than last year and we all know how that went down.

I agree with most of your post except the example of columbia families moving to hohenwald for sports. Lewis County has one of the highest unemployment rates in the state so I can't see many people being able to afford to do this. I realize they could drive out of county to work but thats another discussion. Still...I liked your post and found the urban/rural topic interesting...never have even thought about that!

I am coming to the game but last time I made the trip I got caught up in traffic...840 shut down for 4 hours. Didn't make it to the game until halftime! Anyway..I am sure Goodpasture games are broadcast on the radio..can someone tell me what station? Just in case!

Doesn't mean crap I know but gonna put it here anyway....CPA beat DCA 39-14....Camden beat DCA 41-10. I really don't see why people would say Camden is gonna be blown out...I say Camden wins 31-21!

Good thing you didn't because the only team who has the right to run their mouth about winning state is Alcoa. They are the defending champs and also only lost to the monster 4a Maryville by a couple of points. They also beat McCallie! Alcoa to me is by far the best 2a team in the state.

Hoover....there is a reason they have a national ranking...I don't think Maryville will even win state this year after that first playoff game

I would have to agree on that butt whoopin if they don't fix this problem. I made a post early on during the season about this very thing. When we play a quality team who can stop the run we are done. We have no passing game! We squeaked by Fairview without it but Goodpasture will be a different story. Running the ball is fine when it works but when you aren't having much success on the ground you got to air it out a little. I noticed the radio anouncer during the Camden game mentioned this too. We couldn't run on them and with over 2 minutes left in the game and Lewis Countys ball he said it was over because we weren't going to pass the ball. At least I am not the only one who gets frustrated by this!

8-7 with Lewis County winning...whats with the panther offense? Something has gotta change before we go to Goodpasture next week!

I believe the LC Panthers will win but I can't say I believe it will be a blowout. Fairview only lost two games. I realize they were blown out in these games but then again it was Goodpasture and CPA....private schools! I would love to see a huge blowout...that would make me feel a lot better about playing Goodpasture the 2nd round...And before anybody makes a post about Goodpasture having to get past Adamsville first....I am just being realistic!

Yeah..most LC and Camden Fans think it will be a close game but geez...these waverly fans must really hate LC. They make it sound like Camden is playing Loretto by giving predictions of 50-6. I don't see that happening!

Good Post...I never even look at any other poll besides the AP. Not that they are not as credible or anything I just don't like polls that use mathmatic formulas such as the college BCS. If you look at those polls such as Sonny Moore then Goodpasture and Alcoa can beat like 99% of all teams regardless of Class. They are unbelievable teams but I don't know about that. I think this game is gonna be one of the best you'll see in the state this year.

I didn't say Camden has no tradition or clout in 2a. I have nothing but respect for Camden. I have not once said you guys aren't as good as us. I just think we are the more well known team thus the higher ranking. Its just an opinion and everyone is entitled to one. I am not stating anything as a fact...just an opinion. I have no way to actually prove that we are more well known. I realize rankings don't mean a thing or why even play the game if we already know who the better team is. I think LC is mentioned in the the Alcoa and Goodpasture threads because thats who they think will advance far enough to play them. As bad as I hate to say it....I do believe LC and any other team in 2a has no chance of beating these two teams. I have watched both play this year and these teams are two of the best reguardless of Classification. I would love for someone to beat them though!
