I've known Rodney for a long time and know the guy can coach. If he chose to implement the same offense at Central that he did at Clinton, look out 3AAA. I got to go to a couple of Clinton's games this year and they were explosive. One of the games I went to was the Central game. There were a lot of yards put up that night. I'm sure that Clinton would hate to lose him, but it would be a great hire for Central. Central needs some structure and I'm sure Ellison would be able to deliver that and an offense that would put up some big numbers. And don't just think he's an offensive guy either. He has been a DC before too and had a pretty dang good defense as well. I don't know who else is in the running, but he should definitely be in the top 3 choices.

I hope they wait til the following week to find that spark Kaz!! And then have it all the way to Cookeville!! Always a lot of respect for Oneida and their people. Even from the old Powell Valley/Oneida days. This is one of my favorite games of the year and I hope the two teams keep each other on the schedule for a long time. Good OOC rivalry.

This should be an interesting match up. In the history of this series, CG has always played Oneida tough at CG. Not so much at Oneida. Oneida has probably had the tougher schedule so far so that could serve as an advantage to them. CG has looked good so far this year however, and should be ready to prove something on Friday to the visiting Indians. I expect it to be a close game, possibly even coming down to the last possession. I'll give my nod to CG, simply for the fact that they are playing at home.

What a good ballgame. I thought CG had it there for awhile. Hats off to CD. They played a good ballgame. Both of the teams wanted this one, you could tell. But in the end, CD made the plays where CG didn't. Best of luckm to CD the rest of the way.

I actually feel pretty good about this game for CG. They suffered through a 3 game losing streak and then had the bye week. Maybe they got their heads together and will come in prepared on Friday. I know CG's defense has looked pretty bad as of late, but I've been to almost every game, and if you take away some of those big plays by opposing teams, then CG is right in every game. The inability to score as of late and turnovers is what has been hurting CG the most and their defense has had to play way too many snaps. If CG can put some points on the board and get things rolling on their side then this could be a very winnable game for the panthers.

I tend to agree with you bud. I'm not sure about CG's injury situation, so I couldn't tell you who will be back and who won't. I do know that I expect to see a good game from CG this week. They are in desparate need of a win if they want to get back in the playoff hunt. I've heard CD is pretty good this year and it's at CD so it'll definitely be a tough one. But I think CG realizes what's at stake here and come out hard. This may come down to the wire and I expect a good hard fought game.

Nice job to the buffs Friday. You guys played well. CG had some opportunities but didn't capitalize. Take away some of those big plays and it's a different game I think. You guys have a good team and Boles is a great back and I'm very glad that guy is a senior!!! CG has a much needed week off before they go to Chuckey on the 30th. Best of luck to the Buffs the rest of the way.

I'm looking forward to a better game as well...at least I hope so. This is a big game for both teams. Have a safe trip up guys.

He's doing just fine and should be back after the open week next week. Thanks for asking and for all your prayers for our guy.

Let me clarify by saying, the 9/11 tribute was awesome and very much needed, the best part of the halftime. I just thought that if the Oneida administration knew the tribute was going to happen, which i assume they did, then modifications should have been made to the rest of the halftime activities. I understand it was homecoming, which takes forever to begin with, and I know the bands are always a big part of the halftime show, but at the same time, 20 min is not much time to squeeze all of that in. Maybe speed homecoming up, cut the band a little short, do the tribute, etc. It could have been handled better imo. I'm sure if it was 25-30 min, then the zebras wouldn't have had a problem nor would the CG coach, which I'm sure he was just aggravated at the beating his team was taking at the time. Anyway, I just wanted to point out that I am very patriotic and I think anytime we get a chance to honor those that fight and die for us we should. I didn't want to leave that impression on you fine folks in Oneida land! Best of luck to you guys the rest of the year!

This was the first game without the starting qb for CG, so that obviously had an effect. I think they had 5-6 turnovers that lead to 4-5 SG tds. And to answer your second question, my answer would be a little bit of both. CG didn't play well and SG did. CG is much better than the performance they put on that night. As for tonight, I'm hoping that CG takes advantage of the fact that they are home again and will play to their capabilities because they could be a pretty good football team if they play like theyre capable. I'm still going out on a limb and picking CG in an upset!

CG has the receivers, but their starting qb has been out the past two weeks and probably will not play this week either. He got hurt in weeks 1 and 2, but not since. The two qbs they have backing him up are capable qbs and should be able to deliver the ball. I just hope our defense shows up this week or it will be a long night. If they play like they're capable of playing, this could be an entertaining game. If not, WG will win.

Lookin for a better game this week from CG. I'm gonna go out on a limb and take CG in a squeaker. Have a safe trip over Buff fans.

Congrats to the indians. You all put a whoopin on us. Hopefully cg can get the ship righted and get things goin again. Best of luck to Oneida the rest of the year. Enjoyed the trip but dang, halftime took FOREVER!!!!!!!
