I take it by this post that Shelbyville got the same playoff ban that FC did (if they had beaten Page) obviously this was a hit for the Golden Eagles since they were already in!

So is there any information saying this about shelbyville? I haven't heard anything on this and just know that they have several players out due to the actions from last week. I haven't heard anything about a post season ban.

Agreed. If it’s the Shelbyville-Beech winner, those two will certainly have a lot of experience in tough, close games....even in the playoffs. The winner of that one will have some definite momentum.

Yep. It will be interesting to see how it all plays out.

True...but they get Hillwood first to get the dust off. Then, it’ll be the Page-Gallatin winner, likely Page. 

True. Summit really has an easy path till 3rd round. But, it still could hurt them with because they really haven't been battle tested since the beginning of the season. Whoever they would play in the third round will be battle tested right before they play summit.

Agreed. Especially with the way the brackets will set up. The best two teams in Region 6 are Beech and Hillsboro and they will be in the same bracket with Shelbyville. Meanwhile, Summit basically has a cake walk through two rounds. Too bad Gallatin and Hillsboro did not play to determine to 2 seed from Region 6 in a fair way. In my opinion, Hillsboro would beat Gallatin by three touchdowns.

The big question is will summit be ready to play because they have missed many games due to other teams forfeiting. Summit has only played two teams in the district and neither one of them were shelbyville or page.  Will they be ready? They have only played one game in the month of October. Overall they should be healthy but will they be in game shape?

I don't believe that.  There's obviously game film.

The film cut off before it got started

I agree. I believe Hillsboro would've beaten them. Crazy thing is now you never know from week to week who can play due to covid. It will be interesting to see how it gets handled. Already hate to see that about stewarts creek.

I agree that Shelbyville may not have the defense yet to make a huge run, but they have improved. In the playoffs when the weather is cold, though, that rushing attack is going to be tough to handle. Just keep in mind that they are set up for the playoff-type games and they are dangerous. It's too bad Summit and Shelbyville did not play...that would have been a knock down-drag out battle! Who knows? They may meet in the quarterfinals yet again.

I would've been a good game to see how good both teams really are. Shelbyville will be tough if the games are close but if they are behind it will be interesting to see how they respond. Crazy thing is last year everyone thought the beech district was the better one and they almost got swept by this district. It will be interesting to see how it plays out this year.

From what I’ve heard, all the reports have been turned in and there is not a lengthy video of everything. More than likely, the decision of the officials will stand and the schools can take additional action if they choose.

Hopefully all that was involved have received their punishment. Others players who didn't get involved should be allowed to play. That would be a shame for a few to mess up a game for others

Beech and Summit I’m sure. Don’t sleep on Shelbyville and that running game. 

I agree on those first two. I do not think Shelbyville is capable of making it all the way. They are a solid team but not there yet. Give them one more year under the new coach and I believe they could have a better shot. Beech looks good this year and summit is solid as long as the two brothers are playing.  I don't believe summits defense will be good enough to make it but they did pull through last year.

I will be surprised if the punishment is the same. I will hold my next statement until the final verdict is in 

Has there been a verdict yet?

I won't really argue that but dont sleep on 3 teams from the west. 

What teams are those from the west that you speak of. I know one is Henry County. They are always competitive and very well coached.

I think the two regions are very equal this year. Not much difference whatsoever. Beech and Hillsboro are good. Summit and Shelbyville are good. After the top two in each region, it falls off significantly. Gallatin and Page have both taken big drops this year, but I expect both to rebound next year under the new classification/region structure obviously.

I can see that but I've seen some teams from both district play and the lower half of Beechs district seems to be more competitive and has better players all around. Lincoln only has the QB, Franklin county is young and has gotten better but not there yet, and Columbia just has a good defense but can't score. It will be interesting to see how that Summit district shakes out. 

Summit and Shelbyville are the only two teams out of this district that will be able to play with teams in the playoffs. The others are not as competitive for playoffs. Page and the other teams are really down and playing a lot of young players. They should be better next year.  Last year this district was better than the Beech district. That is not the case this year and most years. It will be interesting to see how this plays out for playoffs. Hate it for the players who don't get the chance to play some games but it could be worse.

So out of the district, it looks like Shelbyville, Lincoln, and Summit were the only teams that played against any real competition. Verdict is still out on Columbia playing against a very bad spring hill team. Maybe Dickson will be better but Columbia will find out what they can do when they play summit next week.  Lincoln looked much improved than last year. I know shelbyville lost to the wildcats but Tullahoma is a really good team this year. Shelbyville will get back this week with their game. I know the battle of 840 with page and fairview is always fairly close so sometimes its hard to tell how good page will be this year. Don't think franklin county will have the year they was hoping. They maybe a year away.

You think the new coaching staff will have Shelbyville playing at the same level? Also, who do you think is the top 5 players in the District are currently?

With a few new coaches to the region, what is prediction for this region. Summit made the championship last year and have their two best players coming back with a few others.

Shelbyville

Page

Lincoln County

Columbia

Summit

Franklin County

What is reality? That OC lost a close game to a good Covington squad in a game that could have easily went the other way?? Reality is, if OC and Cov played 10 times i would bet it would be 5-5 or 6-4/4-6, something of that nature. Reality is, OC is just as talented as Cov, it is not like they got blown out. They made several mistakes and questionable play call and they paid for it. Reality is, you sound bitter coming on here and talking about OC's "cupcake" schedule. Reality is, you sound like you don't know much about football in general. If you want to talk about "reality", there is your reality check. Please, take your bitterness elsewhere. OC is an extremely talented team just as Covington is. Covington just came out on top on this night.

 

Just to be clear here, I'm not trying to take anything away from Covington. They played very sound football and played their game. Congrats to Covington for a very well played game. Very athletic team. Good luck the rest of the year and hope to meet you guys again!

REALITY IS.... over 500 yards rushing put up on your defense tonight by not one or two but several backs from covington. Was is it a chocolate cupcake or a vanilla one that you had? You have some goods players on the team but they seem to fold when the going gets tough.
