I haven't seen possumtowner on here in a couple years now. By the way no one ever admitted to being possum. I tried to figure that one out for years, and I've accused a few people of being possum. I've heard some pretty good arguments about who it might be, but then you have to suspect the person making that argument... There's more deception around the identity of Possum that there is in a white house speech, and that's saying somthing. I know the cracker Barrel menus changed to regular english a few years back so I suspect that Possum might have left Lebanon. Good luck to FC tonight and hope both teams play well and have no injuries. Little too hot for a sweatervest tonight unless you wear it without the polo underneath. And that just don't look right.

Not to keep the thread lingering, but I feel the same way about alot of 1a/2a football games. Our region has basically 3 decent teams and sometimes Watertown. Other than that it's very hard to make it to halftime in most of these games. Not picking on these teams, they are doing the best they can. But that could just be my uh what was it? snobbish, elitest, holier than thou-est, sweatervest-est, attitude talking!

Wasn't there but that was the question that I had... Did the comback start when Swindoll came in? Or were we already coming back. Personally I thought he should have been the QB anyway. Nothing against the Senior, but Swindoll is a tough hardnosed football player. Winner mentality. And NO! He doesn't need to concentrate on baseball.

I'm agreeing with a Trousdale guy... yikes! Speaking of great Americans, thank you to all you Vets today and everyday, or if you have kids or family serving, please pass along a thank you for their service. And go Sweatervest Nation!

Course Hitler had a mustache, but Patton didn't. Barack doesn't which makes sense by your logic, But neither did The President Reagan. Not trying to blow holes in your theory, but the Center isn't holding. Sorry, carry on with footbnall. you side tracked me there.

Huh?

Just don't go with the fake turtleneck underneath it. We see right through that faster than a clip on bowtie.

Hey I hear ya and I know it's hard for you TC guys to have to say nice things about Friendship! I can't answer for the current state of FC posters. The number has been dwindling for years. But usually around this time you have Possumtowner talking about his truck anyway. No idea. The new guys need to step up. I guarantee you they are on here reading. I do hope hope for a November FC/TC matchup. Late Fall ain't the same without being ticked off at TC or South Pitt fans.

I have no dog in the hunt this year but I will say this. FC came in a very young and inexperienced team this year. From the time of the Gordonsville game (when they just weren't very good) to the Trousdale game the FCS defense improved immensely. This young team has found itself. Coach Lowe has his defense tackling again. And the offense has found it's way. Now Trousdale is nowhere near where they were last year with Ford and Seay, but still they beat Gordonsville and FC didn't. And everybody else in the Region has been cream puffs for a couple years now, so you get no good games from them. No idea what Signal Mountain has. But as long as they aren't a smashmouth team or a very fast team I think FC can defend them. Heck at this point even if they are a smashmouth team FC may be able to defend them. Again, no idea about SM, so I have no prediction. But I'm proud of the way this young FC team has grown over this year. They should be good with this group for a couple more years.

don't know about Reeves, I didn't make it up to Macon County. I do think this year's game will be more like 3 years ago when you guys had the experienced team with Smith at QB, and FC was playing alot of younger players. If I remember right that was a hard hitting game with G-ville winning a close one. Not predicting an outcome, I'm just saying it's similar teams. FC has a bunch of big guys and a bunch of lean athletic guys... They are just young. Another year in the weight room will help them alot. But this year's team can gel and make some noise in the region. Defense needs to step up the takling. Friday night could be a really good one. It won't be the mis-match of last year by a long shot. At least I hope not!

This will be an interesting game for FCS. We lost 12 Seniors from last year. Most of which were crucial players all year long. This year's team will need to find their identity and their leaders quickly. The offensive and Defensive lines should be good with plenty of big bodies in there. Good RB to run the ball. Plenty of young athletic guys. It'll be interesting to see how they play tonight. Last year's game we pretty much overwhelmed y'all no matter how you look at it. I really don't know what to expect tonight.

Well good point. I'm not sure he did enough last year to be preseason, but he'll sure have an opportunity this coming year with all those Seniors gone. I haven't seen him in a while... Hope he put on about 20 pounds!

Not sure who that would be Croz... they going to be young.

It would be interesting to see a breakdown of how this came to be....who voted for who, criteria, etc. I'm heavily biased, of course, but I haven't heard anyone in the past two years that disagreed with your post. Congratulations to Lee..he's a hoss as well. Imagine him in TCs backfield...... Well it's a team game anyway right? Individual honors are more for the kid's Momma. It's all subjective. They ought to give honors to the best offensive line or best defense. Those would be some meaningful awards.

Seay was the best player in 2A hands down this year. Both sides of the ball. MVP in the Championship, and Co MVP in the Region. To beat TC you had to stop Seay, and nobody did. Without him they are still a good team, but not a 1 loss in 2 seasons team. So this list must be a popularity contest, or character, or maybe grades, but not solely a football contest.
