Covington made a statement tonight by beating melrose 34-19. Covington could have added a late td but decided to take a knee inside the 10 with a minute or so left. Pretty good game played by the Chargers, melrose showed flashes of being good, but just couldn't stop the rushing attack that Covington attacked with. Melrose did throw the ball well, but had a few too many dropped passes and a few too many passes that were thrown in no mans land. Overall, a good game to watch. I was really expecting melrose to win the game, but they just didn't have to horses to stop that wing-t that Covington runs.

Heard they are gonna be starting a freshman QB. Don't know anything about the kid, but that usually is never a good thing. I'm sure they will have another small, but quick offensive line and a couple of fast tailbacks. They should have a decent year, schedule isn't too tough. Wouldn't be surprised if they make it to the 2nd or 3rd round of the playoffs.

Munford will probably run the wing-t, although there have been some games where they lined up in 3 and 4 wide and ran sort of a read option. They did this earlier in the year and had some success with it. They really want to go on long drives and kind of shorten the game. Against Hardin Co. last week they received the opening kick off and ran 8 minutes off the clock before they scored. If they get behind its over though. They don't really have much of a passing attack to speak of. Maybe a few short routes and throws to a back coming out of the backfield, but they will definitely not take any shots down field. At least none that should be completed if the defense is half competent. Henry Co. should roll this week. Get munford behind on the early downs and force them to try and throw the ball and it will be a very long night for the cougars.

Hardin County is a very well coached and disciplined team. Melrose does play in a tough region, and has seen some very good teams this year. If you look at the match up from last year, it was a shoot out, with Melrose slightly edging Hardin. Hardin lost a good bit of talent from that team from last year, but has developed some talent for this year. I think Melrose will have the advantage in speed, so they will put up points. However, if Melrose can't defend the pass, then this game will likely be another shoot out. I'll give Hardin a slight edge because of home field advantage. Look for a close game though.

Just got word, Game between Covington and SS will be at 7pm Friday.

Not only is 54 bad but the city of Covington is still a complete mess. The road by the school is still about 85% covered in ice. I dont know what is going to happen.

In the city of Covington there are more house without power than those with it. About an inch of ice already and it's still coming down hard. Trees down all over the place. Power lines as well. Don't see a way players could even get to the school to get on a bus to head to the game. No way SS and Covington play tomorrow. Will have to do some major melting.

Tipton County schools have been closed for tomorrow, so I would assume the game between Covington and Jackson SouthSide will be postponed. I have not heard anyting officially, but its hard to belive there will be a game if school is not in session tomorrow.

What is the girls name that wears number 15 for westview? Kind of tall and has a good looking jumper.

Same ole same ole for Haywood. Can't get it done in crunch time.

Saw him play against TRA the first time. Some kid from TRA dominated the game. Had like 28 and 15 in a victory. Didn't see much from anybody from USJ. Not sure who is looking at him, but I wouldn't guess its any D-1 team.

Covington will be a VERY hard out. They are big and athletic. The defense they play will cause major problems for teams that havent seen anything like it.

Im pretty sure if Covington wasnt intimidated the first 4 times they met that they wont be intimidated if they meet again. Both of them have to make it to the boro first.
