Jeff Co. 21 Science Hill 34 I just don't think our defense can stop anyone anymore until they prove it.

Wow! Waco, your top ten lists are ridiculous enough and something most folks laugh off. But this latest campaign of yours to smear a football team of high school kids just because you're upset because a few of the players from your favorite team got hurt is over the line at the very least. Football is a contact sport. Get over yourself. If a team were teaching it's kids to play dirty, the TSSAA would not tolerate it. There has been no such problem with them. There also have been no complaints til your players were hurt. Guess what, Jefferson County lost 3 very important players very early in the season as well. Did you see Jefferson County fans all over the boards complaining and whining? No. They apparently have a lot more class than the D-B fans that continue to follow threads about another school, harrassing them all season long. Frankly, i'm surprised CoachT hasn't locked you out of threads yet given your blatant accusations week in and week out. Go get a job, do something positive in your life and quit trolling the boards. It only makes you and the rest of the folks that do it look bad. Nobody thinks it's cute or funny unless you're from D-B. Other schools aren't going to jump on the bandwagon. Nobody is lining up to pat you on the back, nor laugh at your futile attempts to defame a bunch of high school kids playing football. Give it a rest. The only folks that the rest of the public see in a negative light are you folks that keep slinging baseless accusations against another school just because you're overly emotional about a few kids that got hurt in a contact sport. To CoachT and it's admin staff....how about we start locking down waco and some of the others that keep trolling Jefferson County posts every week and filling them up with accusations and slander?

And I think the problem is the defense. They can't stop anybody, especially when they need to. Defensive co-ordinator needs to get it going or there needs to be changes. They're just sad on that side of the ball. I've never seen a Jeff Co. team give up so many points game in and game out. Yes, the offense gives up way too many turnovers, but winning starts on the defensive side of the ball.

Anyone know the final score? Seems to be the only region 1 score that stopped updating. Thanks.

Thoroughly explained and very well put. You can play a creme puff or two at some point to 'learn how to win' if necessary but you have to play good teams if you want to elevate your game and strive to reach your goal of being the best.

I'm just not seeing the defense this year and i'm not sure we can hold DB to 35. I think the talent is there for Jeff Co. but i'm not seeing the intensity. I think too many of the guys got caught up in the injuries to various players and they've yet to figure out that they're still capable of being a very good football team with who is left. They need to learn to believe in themselves. If the weather is clear... Jeff Co. 7 DB 35

Nice win Canes, grats and good luck the rest of the way. To our Pats, I hope we figure out what's wrong with our D and get it fixed. It's been a problem all year. No containment, the secondary has been out of position most of the season with the exception of a single game, and speed has been an issue with them. Also, the D-line will do well one series and then allow holes the size of the Atlanta by-pass the next. I would like to see our Offense opened up just a bit more. I think Darby can throw it well. Spread Brooks out occasionally and throw it to him on a slant, see if the defensive secondaries are willing to step up and take the hit to stop him. Find more ways to punish tacklers with his size. Let's get some plays in there quicker still and mix it up more. Use Brooks early in the games and wear down the defense with his punishing style. We just seem to plod along too slowly and our scores in the last 3 games reflect that.

Let's see, you're a 'camper' with 3 posts. I think they should change that to 'troller' and maybe even tag juvenile on the front of it. This game has been over for a week and a half now and for some reason you still have an issue with it. Maybe you should spend more time in class working on your spelling and less time trolling the boards simply trying to be negative towards schools and teachers you resent for some reason that nobody on here cares about. This thread should be closed because the game is over and it has turned into nothing more than an outlet for you to anonymously channel your resentment of Jefferson County thru negativity. Grow up.

Depends on the Patriots defense. If they can continue to improve and step up, they should be able to compete well. If not, it'll be a long night. Jefferson Co. 27 Morristown East 24

We still seem to struggle with dropping out of coverage on pass plays way too soon at times. I would like to see more of what we saw in the 4th quarter with players getting up and getting to the wideouts and laying hits on them as they catch the ball, not chasing them down from 10 yards away after they've caught it. I think the problem is, the defensive front has been relying on the secondary to help stuff the middle too much and they're simply dropping out of coverage too soon at times. Could be youth, could be a lot things. Last night we seemed to make strides as the game went on though. By the 4th quarter we were laying some hits on WR's and it was nice to see. Seemed to get the rest of the defense fired up and the crowd into it every time we had a big hit. The defensive front took care of their own business last night, filling the holes very well, which probably played a big part in the secondary being able to stay in coverage better. One other thing, I thought we covered kicks pretty well last night. Hope they stop that short kick thing which has only led to a multitude of problems and continue to just kick it away. That kicker has a good leg and we were covering fairly well most of the night. Think they only had one really good return all night. I never did understand the short kick thing when the last staff did it, let alone now. We have the speed to cover the kicks, kick it away!

Great win for JC while playing 3+ quarters short-handed. First, I have to give major props to Darby. I was one of the guys that said, this guy wouldn't make it as a QB, this being his second year of football. Credit where credit is due. The kid played great. Actually, truth be told, he was the best QB we've had all year. I wouldn't be surprised to see a permanent change at some point, possibly moving McFall back to his true position at RB. Second, Tolliver, simply put, was a beast last night. He must have broken somewhere around 15 tackles last night. A great show of power and vision in finding the gaps. Lastly, defense looked better, especially up front. Would still like to see some better reads in the secondary, but that said, we looked much better as the game went on. Perhaps we just needed a few games under our belts. There were some great hits (what a great hit by Goins in the 4th) in the secondary and quite a bit better coverage reading passes (nice job on the INT's by Moore and Grindstaff) and defending receivers in the second half last night. Great overall effort last night by all the kids who stepped up after the losses! Congrats on the win!

We're actually focusing on our team, and what needs to be corrected. In the meantime, thank you for calling us 'whinners' which is pronounced winners. I believe the spelling you're looking for is 'whiners'. Perhaps before you start calling people names, you should check your own literacy. As for Mo West, I thought their line did a great job of opening huge holes and their RB's did a good job of finding them and getting into the secondary. That said, it was a two touchdown game. Show me a fan anywhere that knows what they're talking about and they'll analyze the game pretty much the same way. Without 6 turnovers, we would have had an excellent chance to win the game at the end, despite our horrible defense last week. Good luck to you too.

This game could really go either way. It looks as if Campbell Co. has a fairly high scoring offense which could give Jeff Co. fits, no better than they played last week on defense. On the other side of the ball, it will most likely come down to speed. Does Campbell Co. have the speed on defense to contain McFall and company? I'm interested to hear from some Campbell Co. fans regarding the latter. Lastly, i'm curious to see if Jeff Co. can finally speed up the play calling. After 2 years of agonizingly slow play calling from the last coaching staff, this staff doesn't seem to get plays in any quicker. Jefferson Co. 27 Campbell Co. 20
