CovingtonQB15

covington vs. ripley in 2003 playoffs....rematch from regular season....covington wins in overtime 17-14

It was rained out

As far as the region goes I read on Coach T awhile back that after this year Region7-3A is gonna be split up, I think dealing with the changing populations of schools but Im not sure, do you know if this is a fact and what will be the new teams in the region? It is true that the region isnt as tough as some other ones, and yes Covington has dominated in recent years with the exception of last year, but the region competition isnt as consistent as it should be. Ex. Dyer County in '01, was a good football team, why was there such a drop off in talent? Ripley is always pretty competitive, and in the last 4 or 5 years when the new coaches came into Obion, OCCHS and they have been improving every year, I think that the offense they are using now puts them in a better position to win than the wide open offense they had, even though it might not be as exciting but it works.Who will be their QB this year since Moore is gone? Just like everybody knows against Covington if you put 8 or 9 people in the box to stop the run your defense better get stops and teams last year did that and were successful when they dared Covington to beat them through the air. Covington threw more times last year than they have in the past few years but they still have to get better in their passing game. Their non region games will have a big impact on how they do in the playoffs just like last year. Cant wait for football to start!

How can you say Covington has lost its aura of invincibility? They have lost 1 game in the region in the last seven years and now they are not the team they used to be? Covington did come into the Obion game last year overlooking them at 1-2 and granted they didnt play a very good game. But you gotta give credit to Obion and their coaching staff for putting together and executing a good game plan to stop Covington but you gotta admit Covington didnt play a great game. Covington will be a better team this year than they were last year and could have another deep run in the playoffs and possibly another State Championship appearance. They have the same schedule again this year except they have to travel to Milan and to Germantown.

Can anybody for Obion County tell me if Wes Moore signed anywhere to play football this year?

Aw yea man he was REAL SCARED to return those kicks. Man if you knew anything about football, the kids generally do the things the coaches tell them to do but i guess pigeons aint to bright in that area. Man I already told yall on my other posts that I thought #99 played an extremely great game and he helped his team blow Covington out. I aint takin anything away from his performance because he has a chance to be a big time player on the next level if he wants it bad enough. Isnt this whole website based on peoples opinions and facts? That was all that i was sayin in theat post and that is my opinion. Your opinion isnt the same so this is just something great to talk about buddy.

I didnt imply anything else than what i said. And if you didnt read what i said before that i said #99 had a great game and he is a great player. I just said that #15, no it aint me, had more tackles and more receptions. Like i said earlier I give all the props in the world to Fulton and their players cause you were right Covington didnt have a chance in the game but that doesnt excuse the point that no one on Covington had a good game does it. Overall they played like crap against a very good team and anytime you do that you ought to get beat and they did.

First I just want to give props to Fulton for winning the state cause they had a big time team and I want to give props to #99 to cause he played a great ball game. But its bad when #15 for Covington had more tackles than "Mookie" but he didnt get the defensive MVP. I know that the award generally goes to the person on the winning team, but its all good. Oh yea he had more catches too!

I agree that CBHS had probably one of the toughest schedules areound. Covington had a pretty tough schedule of its own. They had three loses at the end of the regular season. Germantown-State Champs, Milan-Semis, and Obion-There loss to Brighton in the second round was a fluke, and they lost to a great team in the state championship game. Credit goes to Coach Linville for scheduling tougher opponents this year because those 3 loses helped the Chargers at the right time, in the playoffs when it counted. Playing great teams can only make your team better and that is what it did for Covington.

Although I have never seen Ronald Holland play I have heard about him, and from what I heard he was a beast not just on the football field but in track and in basketball. From having played with Lareko Boykin, I can say he was the best running back to ever come through Covington.

Coach Linville, Coach Pratt from Crockett, The Head Coach at Milan, I thik his last name is Morris, but not quite sure

I heard a couple of Greenbrier kids got hurt friday night? How serious are the injuries and will they get to play this friday night?

I think Milan has probably the best fans in West Tennessee. At every game the stands are always packed. Covington's fans are good too.

Hey whitefuel, yall need to act like yall have been to the playoffs before.....oh wait this is the first year for yall aint it. Hey man I know Brighton has started come on strong as of late but dont count your chickens before they hatch buddy. Hopefully it will be a good game, Go Covington and #15!

I think we will win but i dont think it will be by 38. Brighton has made some improvements during the past several weeks but Covington is finally coming together as a team. Playing Germantown and Milan is paying off for the Chargers at the right time. The Chargers cant underestimate Brighton. The controlled the ball the majority of the game against Obion and kept the Rebel offense off the field. Corckett County did the same thing two years ago and beat the chargers even though that wasnt suppossed to happen. Covington still has to stay focused and keep playing good ball. Go Chargers and #15!
