I have seen both teams play. Lipscomb against Marion County and Alcoa against Sweetwater. With that being said, I believe Lipscomb will win by a very comfortable margin. Everyone wants to concentrate on Austin Rogers but they have several weapons to turn to. #33 is probably the best fullback in AA football for Lipscomb. The line is big and very much in shape enough to handle Alcoa. The QB threw the ball very effectively against Marion County. The ball was in the air before the receiver even broke out of his pattern. The three linebackers are tough. They don't try to fool you when they are coming they show it and still get there. The defense will be the best Alcoa has seen all year.
Alcoa, in my opionion, are weak on the left side of their offensive line. Center is just average but does a decent job. The right tackle is the stud but will not be enough. Alcoa had a big let-down after the half against Sweetwater and allowed 14 quick points. Lipscomb matches Alcoa's team spped very well and that is why I say Lipscomb by at least two touchdowns. thumb
