One thing is for sure, if Springfield doesn’t win it will have all the excuses. 23 had nightmares and didn’t get a lot of sleep or the QB gf broke up with him and his head wasn’t right.

Bakers dozen

I am shocked noone has tried to take the slant away. That is a great play for them for sure. Oh Footballpops is taking a break from trying to fight Greeneville fans to comment on our thread. He is an All State receiver, obviously he is very good. I think he hurts teams most with the sweep, just my humble opinion. No need to try and fight me in the parking lot over it.

They don't run a 3-4, they run a 3-5-3. If they did run a 3-4 they would have two safeties and would most likely be running Cover 2. I seriously doubt you will see a team like Central try to cover 23 in man. He is too fast and too shifty for that. You put a corner to press and a safety over the top. He is a decent receiver but what I think he does the best is when they have him run the ball on a sweep. He is so fast getting to the edge that athletic teams like Clarksville have trouble stopping him. Can't wait til Friday, may be biggest game in Centrals history or at least as long as I have been around (which is longer than I would care to admit).

That is very true, pretty much zero big game experience on this MC team. Will be exciting for the kids.

Now I know all the Springfield fans are football experts but is it possible that WH ran into an opponent that just wasn’t a good matchup for them. A team that likes to grind it out is often a bad matchup for a team with great speed. Or you could all be right and they lucked into an undefeated regular season and district championship. Playoffs are a different beast all together when your playing opponents your not familiar with.

They were supposed to be decent last year but quarterback got hurt. These kids this year have been three year starters for the most part and that experience is paying off. I guess when White House went from winless to undefeated its because they were shady too right? Give me a break

Nothing. They have done nothing to be impressed by, what I said is they have impressive athletes. The safety and running back could play for anyone in the state. They just run a junior pro offense. Put Springfields coaches at Kenwood and they would be destroying people. I actually really have no affiliation with MC, I pull for all the schools in the county to do well. I would argue just as passionately for any of the county schools. MC is just having the best year so far, since Northeast had their issue. I would love to see this rivalry grow but MC has to be good consistently for that to happen. I do enjoy reading your "analysis" Kevin, just think these teams are too evenly matched to call this a blowout.

Well seeing as how you are terrible at predictions we will take that with a grain of salt. You picked Springfiekd to beat Beech and White House to beat Portland so........

That’s why they play the games. I have no doubt a win by MC would be an upset, my opinion is not going to change that. I do predict it will be a packed house for a battle between two top ten teams in the state. Going to be a good one.

CHS and I agree. QB is good player, back is decent, I remember Center was huge but 23 is the guy, let’s be honest. Not running down Springfield at all (watched you guys go to state and was in stands pulling for you) but your acting like your just dominant at every position and unbeatable. Fake news!

So there is another player just as good as 23, he must have not played the night I watched them.

If you think Springfield has more athletes than Kenwood, your crazy. I have seen both teams play in person and it’s not even close. With that being said Springfield has by far better coaches than Kenwood. As far as MC being one dimensional, by no means is Springfield super complicated offensively either. They have one special athlete but don’t fool yourself into thinking they are just way better at every position than Montgomery Central. This will be a close game, I just can’t see this being a blowout. Can’t wait to see what happens.

No respect for the Indians here, guess they just lucked into 7-0. They have played athletic teams, Kenwood is freaky athletic and they handled that pretty well. Portland is a very good team with a running qb and they did pretty well with them. Just something to keep in mind. I am calling for the upset MC-24 Springfield-21

As far as Central/Portland I understand the bus issue but getting to the stadium late doesn’t take away from the fact they got shut out 30-0. I went to Central game tonight and they struggled defensively but their running game is top notch. They have a thunder and lightning combo going on with 33 and 3. Both those backs run hard and love contact. Springfield may be a tough matchup for them but they are playing with house money right now, no one expected them to make the playoffs much less play for district championship. It will definitely be a huge game!

A good coach like the one who just cost you 5 wins? Anyways, I do admire your loyalty, hope you bounce back and win it all.

So you think that once they are turned in, the TSSAA calls the school and says hey guys you better self report yourselves. Are you serious? That doesn’t even make sense, it seems way more likely that a deal was made with a media member to claim it was self reported to make the school look better. Keep telling that Truth though.

The head coach turns in the eligibility CORRECTLY to the AD. The AD verifies then submits to the TSSAA. If you get food poisoning it’s definitely the cooks fault but it’s the owner of restaurant who will get blamed. The cook however will probably have a hard time getting hired anywhere else though.

It would have took any idiot a max of ten minutes to look this rule up and not have had this problem. Everyone feels for the kids but at the end of the day the HC has to take responsibility. I wouldn’t want to look those kids in the face and admit I didn’t know the rules. Also, didn’t the newspaper say it was “self reported” Guess that was a lie since now everyone is pointing fingers.

You have to follow the rules, just like everyone else. One thing is for sure, it’s not the kids fault. Adults are responsible for checking these things.

Just posted, “self reported” Not a great look

So now that we have established that Central shut out Portland because their bus was late I have completely changed my mind. But seriously I have not seen every Central game, I usually go to the best game in the County and I was at NE last night. Seems like Creekwood have them all they wanted last night, I would place them ahead of Portland and possibly BDP as well. Of course this could change depending on the health and continued development of Portland’s bus driver.

2nd in the region is a toss up? Didn’t Central beat Portland 30-0? Interesting analysis

Players trolling on CoachT=adorable

All these college players everyone is saying CHS has, they were there last year right? How did that go? I’m a MC guy, pull for all the county teams but we don’t have anything for HC this year, I have seen all three teams play and HC is noticeably better. Too big, too strong.
