CCHSRaiders

Hard to say. The Raiders Defense shutout Lebanon in the Jamboree. But I would say Shelbyville is better than Lebanon. Last year the issue was poor defense and offensive turnovers. If that has been addressed this off season, which from everything Ive heard both areas are much improved, this could be a competitive game. Morton and Rozier may both put on a show Friday night. Lets see who has the better Defense and who makes fewer mistakes. Also, hopefully Special Teams is addressed. Blocked punts, Returns allowed for touchdowns, and poor kicking and punting killed us last year a lot more than people realize.

I didnt say Coffee County would win the game but anything other than a big win from Independence would be embarrassing. Ive seen Indy's schedule and its brutal especially with Hillsboro and Franklin coming up. I know CC isnt in their league. What Im saying is this is a much more important game to CC then Independence. I hope the players and staff here show up with an attitude that we want respect instead of laying down and getting beat by 40 points. Independence has alot more to lose, one being respect. Something CC doesnt have but wants. Indy still has to care of business. Go ahead and laugh all you want to. Probably will lose but Im hoping Coffee County plays hard and raises some eyebrows. Even a close loss would be huge for us. Not every team in the state has former NFL players as coaches or blessed with a plethora of athletes. Independence should count their blessings instead of laugh at other schools. Just saying.

Warren County had an opportunity last year by actually having some talent on the field but it didnt work out. I think its a rebuilding year for them but they will surprise some teams. The fact they didnt really play any Freshmen or JV games last year will hurt their depth this year. With Coffee County returning so many starters, White County getting better every year under Malone, and Cookeville always being able to reload, the goals should be improvement based. Warren County's scrappy though so who knows.

The teams are Coffee County, White County, Cumberland County, Cookeville, and Warren County. Coffee County is the defending champions and have only lost about 5 starters from last season. Cookeville is always tough and White County is well coached and has improved every year under Malone. Warren County lost a lot of talent from last year and Cumberland County lost an excellent QB. It should be pretty competitive but Im going with Coffee County. They should be much improved under Coach Davis.

No. if they win Coffee County goes. If Cumberland loses then Coffee will have to beat Cookeville or White Co. will go.

#2 is Chris Murray. He's been a receiver for 2 games. How does that make him a lock for all district receiver? Also, do you really think Cumberland Co. should have more players than Cookeville? Give me a break Captain Bias.

Northcutt has talent, but is more of an overachiever. Not even close to the best back in the state. He does run hard though.

Wow 5 posts and no one from Tullahoma saying how much better they are then people from Manchester. Could it be possible we can go the entire week without Tullahoma saying how amazing they are and without Manchester crying about it? Looks like we might actually have a sportsmanlike and mature Coffee Pot week that is actually about the football game and not who lives in the better part of the county. Of course it is only Tuesday.

Not sure.

Just shut up and be glad their are sports for cry babies like you. Loser.

He did play. His name is Deangelo Rozier. He had 4 or 5 carries. Got his bell rung too or he may have had more. Had around 30 yards against Shelbyville.

I am a former player for Coach Price. His teams are always tough and always ready. The man can win with slow people with no athleticism, cuz he makes you smart, disciplined, and very physical. At signal mountain he has athletes. SM is gonna be very very dangerous.

As satisfying as it would be for blackman to annihilate tullahoma in the same fashion, what I know is that usually when one team blows out another, the next year could be bad news. ex. in 06 tullahoma beat CC 42-7, next year CC wins. in 05 brentwood annihilates CC, in 06 brentwood has to kick a 40 yarder with time running out to win. Tullahoma is good, hope blackman can handle them.
