Lately, CBHS has looked rather shaky. After starting the season 4-0, by beating quality teams, CBHS has been hindered by the injuries of starter after starter and they also have suffered the loss of starting senior QB Brock Ross. After three loses in a row, MBA, Fr. Ryan, and now McCallie, the Purple Wave's fans and everyone who watches high school football seem to have lost all hope. Well that's where everyone is wrong. Senior QB Brock Ross quiting has definitly affected the team, but after the offensive production of Sophomore QB John Michael Skinner, the Purple Wave's offense looks back to normal. Star linebackers, Chris Mosby and Chris Walker, suited up against McCallie for their first games in weeks. Their impact was tremendous in the game. CBHS was the better team out there. They dominated the Blue Tornadoes defensive attack, and took a 14-6 lead into halftime. Four crucial mistakes in the third quarter cost CBHS the game. Blown coverage on the first play of the game, set up a short TD run for McCallie. Two bad decisions on the kickoff return team led to great field position (McCallie got to start their drives inside the redzone) and a 41 fg and a short td. At this point still somewhat early in the third quarter, the score was 24-14. Then on CBHS's next possesion, on fourth down, the snap was way over the punter's head resulting another offensive drive starting in the redzone. Stupid, stupid mental special team mistakes cost CBHS the game. The score makes it look like McCallie whooped up on the Purple Wave, but I think they know as well as I know that CBHS is a dangerous team. Everyone will be counting CBHS out against MUS, but I'll tell you this WATCH OUT! Mus is a huge rival, and maybe the best team in D2 ball right now, but CBHS has the ability to defeat the Owls. If they minimize their mistakes and play fundamentlly sound football, the Purple Wave has a great chance of upsetting MUS. Plus, if CBHS beats MUS, the Purple Wave gets the #3 seed in state. Mus would finish (2-2) and so would CBHS forcing a tiebreaker. CBHS would win the tiebreaker because of beating MUS head to head. If CBHS loses to MUS and Baylor wins, CBHS will finish 6th in the state, and have to travel to Chattanooga to take on Baylor. Yeah, I know your probably thinking to yourself: "Yeah right, CBHS has no chance of beating MUS." All I have to say is Watch Out. This is one of the biggest rivalries in high school football in Memphis, and believe me this will be one of the greatest games of the season. It's only six days away, GET READY.
