Don't sleep on MASE and Moore County

No not a surprise at all. Maybe I should have kept that comment to myself but it's the truth. I have my on opinion on private schools but I will just keep it to myself. Good luck to whoever you cheer for.

We are not playing them in the next two years unless both make semifinals and that's not happening right now.

Bigster Dyersburg or JCS could have beat us by 60 if they wanted and do it easily. Most years no but this year they could.0

Bigster the only argument I would have in your above statement is that LC has not been competitive in those games against Dyersburg, Obion Central and JCS. A team like West Carroll would also get blown out by those teams. So the loses do not out weigh as much as a win against the lesser opponents. If LC had played within 14 points of those teams then I would say that it was a good loss. A win is always better in my book but I get what you are saying but like I said LC was non competitive in those games.

I am not so sure that JCS is not the best team Lake County has played this year. They should be when they get to recruit the best players around Jackson and the surrounding area.

I was talking about Calvin Mullins. Sorry for the mistake.

Man I get what you are saying. All I am saying MC has a good team and program. You and I support the same school.

Well like I said know for a fact what he had that night. Heck his first rd run was 60 plus in that game. I have kept stats for Lake County since the 2000 season. I take alot of pride in having both teams stats correct.

You are correct. Flowers also had more yards and tds in 1995 than Longmire did. Longmire i think had more for his career than Flowers.

He most definitely did. Not trying to argue with you but I know for a fact what he rushed for. Anyway good luck to Dyersburg.

I am afraid he had 147 yards rushing against Dyersburg. He is the only RB to go over a 100 against Dyersburg this year.

Man Moore County has been to the title game 3 times and just haven't gotten over the hump yet. If they are going to do it this will be their year to do it. Dawson White is a heckuva player just as our Calvin Mullins is. Mullins has insane numbers this year. He is closing in on 90 total tackles also this year through 7 games. White is also putting up impressive numbers. Imo he will win Mr. Football this year because his team is also having alot of success. Moore County will play at least until the semifinals this year and maybe they will play for the title. Our falcons will make the playoffs and win a game or 2. I will say this better days are on the way for Lake County.

BPM you do an excellent job with this every week. You usually spot on.

In 1994 James Cook for East Robertson won Mr. Football. East Robertson finished 10 and 2 that year and lost in 2nd rd of the playoffs to Lake County. That same year Lake County's Jewel Flowers rushed for 2848 yards and 48 tds and guided his team to the state championship game losing to So. Pitt 14 to 7. In the game he rushed for 178 yards and td. Jewel Flowers should have won the award but didn't. The 3 guys that up for the award that year was Lake County Jewel Flowers, East Robertson James Cook and Bruceton's Joe Longmire. Flowers had the better stats of the 3 and led his team to the title game. Longmire had the 2nd best numbers that year.

I also don't understand what Bigster beef is. Imo he is just stirring the pot some. He likes do that. As for myself, I just like talking high school football. You are very correct now days coaches use 1A coaching jobs as a stepping stone. I often wish that Lake County would get a good coach that will stay for more than 5 to 7 years. You cannot blame any coach for taking a better payed job. What it would take for a coach to stay along period of time at a 1A school would be for that coach to have grown up in the county or town and wants to coach at the school he played for and attended. If I am looking at things right West Carroll will play McKenzie to decide the region champ. I think that is great for West Carroll and maybe this is the team that future West Carroll teams would look to and say they are the ones that put WC on the map in competing for region championships year and year out. All 1A schools go through down cycles. The good ones limit the number of years in between the good and a average years. I have pointed to this year and next to be considered down years for Lake County. In 2025 if everything holds together LC could possibly go on another run. LC should be able to make the playoffs the next 2 years and possibly win a playoff game. Not bad for a couple of down years. I just hope the Lake County faithful understand where the programs at right now and know that the future is bright. Good luck to your War Eagles the rest of the way.

No it doesn't mean anything. I believe I stated that. West Carroll is having a good year. Enjoy it. Like I said I am glad WC is having a good year. They have 2 coaches who was at LC. One a player and the other a coach. I am willing to say you will lose one of them to Haywood County next year or the year after. Maybe both I know that Coach Puckett and Coach Dowland are good friends.

Like I said So. Pitt will not be tested until the Title game and maybe not then.

I am glad that West Carroll is playing better this season. They have 2 coaches on their staff that was at Lake County. One an ex coach the other an ex player.

Booger I can tell you this LC beat WC 4tds to 0 in a spring scrimmage and beat them 9 to 3 in the fall. Now a scrimmage doesn't mean alot but those are pretty convincing. I have video of both those scrimmages and all of LC scrimmages and games.

Never said Lake County would beat McKenzie this season. Lake County would beat West Carroll bad if the two played. McKenzie is a good team just not state title good this year. Just for giggles I do believe the one common opponent LC and McKenzie both played isDresden. Go look at those games and see who played Dresden closer. I'll give you a hint. It's not McKenzie.

Maybe underachieved wasn't the right word. I know in the past 8-9 years that Huntingdon was the odds on favorite to get to the finals. Especially the 1A years. Huntingdon has been in the mix for the title game for the last 8-9 years but didn't get the job done. That is what I was basing my opinion on.

Images, I agree that So.Pitt is as good as any team from the west. I also think that the Pirates have a slight advantage in the Title game do to the west teams having to run the gauntlet in the playoffs. The Pirates I seriously doubt are challenged until the title game.

No this years addition of the Falcons is down compared to alot of Lake County past teams. LC might could shock one legitimate playoff contender but I don't think they could run the gauntlet that the west bracket will have this year.

I think Huntingdon would win a regular season game over Dresden but a playoff game I would have my doubts. It seems like the last 5 to 8 years the Mustangs underachieve the deeper they go in the playoffs. Maybe this years addition of the Mustangs is different.
