Whitwell didn’t get this far off of luck or because they aren’t good. They are obviously a great team. The difference between Cornersville and Whitwell is the physicality and conditioning. Cornersville this year has been able to play all full four quarters at a break neck pace, and still have the energy to knock your socks off late in the fourth quarter. Huntingdon was one of if not the best offensive team in 1A this year.... before a Cornersville game into town. They beat them down. And yes their fans can say that they just didn’t run enough plays, but the reality of it is that Cornersville’s defense was not gonna let anything get past them. They held a very good lake County team to 8 points as well. Their starters shut out every team they played in the regular season. The saying goes, Defense wins championships, and if they can hold a very good offensive team like Huntingdon to 7 points, I think it would be foolish to believe that they couldn’t do it to Whitwell either. They probably won’t, Whitwell could definitely score more, but is Whitwell’s defense up to the task to stop Cornersville’s offense? That’s why I think that Cornersville will won this game.
