I guess you can thump your chest for another year. Actually, I am not surprised. I knew that if Greenbrier did not spread the field it would be a long night. Throw in penalties, dropped passes, and turnovers and you got a recipe for a lopsided game. Not to mention horrible field position. I think we had a couple of 5-10 yard punts. Springfield QB and #83 were hard to stop on the ground. Not much of a passing game, but why pass when you can get yards on the ground. Springfield kicker is legit. Not sure that those three are gonna get you far in 5A, Not sure who #44 was for Springfield, but I would get him the ball more on offense, and lighten the load for Devon. Short roster and Ironman football was not a good recipe for Greenbrier in that heat last night, but the atmosphere was nice for an opening game amid all this pandemic stuff. Good luck the rest of the season!

Looks like you answered your own questions. I was not impressed with Springfield Defense against Westmoreland, Maybe that was Justin's intention, but I think we can score at least 3 TD's. Bobcats 21-14. I just don't see Bobcats giving up more than two TD's. The field conditions will impact this game for sure.

I since a little underestimating going on in Springfield this week. That's good for us! I will be surprised if Springfield scores more than two TD's. Bobcats defense is pretty good. Special teams is above par. Our offense for the past two years has seen its ups and downs. Mainly because we have left out some skilled players on offense. QB #12 is the real deal, but everyone is hung up on him being 5'10 195lbs. Spread the field and let him toss it to one of our D1 prospects or take off running. Do that, and Bobcats get their first win vs Springfield in a long time. Rain could be a factor in this game as well. Last year was a muddy mess.

How do you not kick a field goal and go up by two scores(twice)? Same question for us - how do you not kick a field goal 4th and 6 inside Westy's 15 in the first half?

I saw a couple of blue devils taking notes on you guys tonight, so you got their attention already. Pretty sure if Westy turns the ball over like they did tonight, they will lose. If they try to force the ball on fourth down and through the air, and make bad choices with regard to field position = they lose. This will be another low scoring game that could go either way. Team with the fewest mistakes, penalties and turnovers win. I give the defensive edge to Westy, and a very slight edge to Whouse on offense. Special teams and coaching to Whouse. Should be a good one.

Well, I am sure the dropped 2 point conversion loss in overtime to Westy back in 2010 was not far from the coaches minds when making the call.

Westmoreland defense was pinning their ears back all night. We ran "one" screen and "one" draw for 15+ yards and never ran them again. Bobcats picked off 4 passes and had every opportunity to win this game in the second half. I would have went for two with 2min to go with how our line was blocking the whole game! 63 was the difference maker for Westy's D. We couldn't block him, and we never adjusted. 28 to 7? - maybe without the five turnovers, bad play calling and three bad onside kicks. The awesome one handed INT hit the ground by the way. White house will struggle next week against Westy's D, but I think White House will win it with their field goal kicker and coaching. Westy vs White House for the District. Congrats to Westmoreland....

Change of plans. The Bobcats are heading to the gravel pit. Basically, the principal said the "the bus is already paid for and your going". Thinking I would get the team fired up, I showed most of the team the video of the Westmoreland player double stomping our starting tailbacks hand(multiple fractures) a couple of years ago, but many started to cry and some wet themselves. I think a few of them actually quit the team. Any five star surf and dive eateries in Westy? Has any bleachers been added or should I bring a chair?

Westy picked over Greenbrier We decided to stay home instead of playing this game. Playing a game on concrete, while getting yelled out by drunk fans, and getting our hands stomped on by players just doesn't sound appealing to us. True story though. During scrimmage this week, we actually had the practice squad get as "unsportsmanlike" as possible to simulate our game for this Friday. Sad but true.

Not sure who that was, but I ran into friends that came over to sit with their brother from Harpeth, as they too graduated from Harpeth. He is a metro policeman, and I sure he will get a kick out of your post.

Second string played a lot. 2nd string tailback had 175 yards in the first half. #44 is our number three fullback, and I for one would like to see him touch the ball more. Definitely an off night for our offense fumbling the football. Home cooking - we win this game by 4 TD's if you were referee . Running up the score - It was 29-7 at the half. Harpeth was in shotgun formation the entire second half with their first string, including an onside kick. That's not exactly conceding defeat in my eyes. Running a reverse on 3rd down and 8 to keep the ball and run out some more clock is a good call. Everyone is beatable on any given Friday. As I said before, turnovers will be the determining factor in our next contest.

Final Score Bobcats 43 Harpeth 14 Bobcats put up over 250 yards rushing in the first half. 2nd string got a lot of play in the 2nd half. You got your championship game Posty!
