  1. Now that we’ve all got to know each others stance on here, what’s some keys to the game from both sides? Strengths and weaknesses, areas of improvement?
  2. If this is true, which I doubt, you ought to concentrate on the game week prep at hand. Leave all the banter and jawing to those of us who actually have no effect on the out come of the game.
  3. I’ll give you that, there was some blown coverages in that game. Not as many as you let on,but whatever. Now as for the defense being “soft” I don’t think so bud, but keep thinking that White House will find how soft those guys are Friday night. I’m guessing tho since you are the “FootballGod” you’re going to come down from the heavens and touch the Blue Devils with the hand of Zeus and guarantee victory. Keep dreaming bud, keep dreaming.....
  4. I agree 100% on all points. I hate referencing the past in sports it’s a mute point, can’t change it or base anything x’s and o’s Off of it. The only thing that the past may affect is experience over coming adversity in competition.
  5. I knew this would come up. Greeneville was, in my opinion, the best team in the state last year, probably win it all again if I’m being honest. Yes, White House won the region, no doubt. I bet you tho Porter would trade that region championship and his win over the Springfield, to be in the championship game.
  6. I expect nothing but that from White House, they’ve always played that way. To think that it’s going to be more or less a cake walk is foolish. Springfield handles adversity very well too. They have been behind in some games this year and made come backs. I don’t really like referencing the past, but last year down every single game in the playoffs and came back in all of them. My point is White House hasn’t been tested in a game this year, how will they handle getting busted in the mouth right out is the gate?
  7. First and foremost I don’t even personally know #23. I have watched the kid play and wish him nothing but the best and hope any all these young men, on both sides of the ball can continue there education or football career, at any institution of higher learning if they so desire. The d-line and linebackers: I wouldn’t say it’s a middle school front by any means, the do a good job of stopping the run and protecting the perimeter. It’s more a average size high school line, much like yours. The corners aren’t getting “toasted” like you put it. It’s called a zone coverage, not man(*football terms).Speaking of #6 I’m pretty sure he had an interception last game so I don’t think he got “toasted”. Yes you are correct #23 doesn’t run the ball, he’s a slot guy #8 and #9 do pound the rock, White House will see this first hand Friday night.
  8. I’ll admit the first half of the Heritage game was a little slow, they made adjustments and finished strong. That’s what matters is how you finish, I don’t care if you win by one or one hundred a wins a win. White House is decent up front, but by no means are they the Pittsburg Steelers of the mid-2000s in the trenches. I’m fairly confident Springfield will scheme and adjust to counter what they do. Props on saying we'll score 21 tho, I’d have figured the arrogance would’ve told you White House would pitch a shut out.
  9. Such a White House thing to do, start a thread about how Springfield is soft. Ok,I’m bored so I’ll bite. Tell me, in football terms(x’s and o’s for you cave man speakers), how is Springfield soft? How can White House exploit this, or is it just going to be “we beat down Springfield all night then go home celebrate” kind of answers?
  10. Good deal sounds like y’all are stacked again. I know the QB position hurts a little, but at least there is good support at key positions to help develop him through out the year. Good luck to y’all hope see y’all again this year.
  11. What’s this we stuff, you got a mouse in your pocket? I guess your going to throw the pads on and relive the glory days? What language are you speaking any how? Is that cave man or pig Latin? I can’t really decipher half of the things you speak of. The problem with White House is they’re always confused. They’ve always longed to be in the Sumner county upper crust of football, but have always had to come on over to Robertson county to get players and play all there home games.
  12. I’m not the one bragging about how good we are. We’re going to do this and that, and all. Last year was last year, yes White House beat Springfield plan and simple. You won’t hear any excuses out of me about why. My thing is White House hasn’t played any one that could challenge them, but yet BDP land is all blowed up about how great they are with no method of measurement.
  13. How much did Haywood loose from last years team? I know the RB is back, who else?
  14. Central rolls, they’re the dark horse in the region this year. Good solid football team
  15. So riddle me this Sherlock Holmes, who has the mighty blue devil Possey’s played to prove themselves this year?
  16. I guess we’ll see how those signature non-region wins helps LAST years region and 2nd round and done champs, this year.
  17. Easy now, that was last year. We don’t talk about the past on here. They’ve played some big names this year and blew them outta the water, I think there best win was to a 2A school only beat them by 30 something I think.
  18. I wonder how many times the bdp faithful will refer to last years game in this thread.....always living in the last
  19. Here we go two old rivals.....let the fun begin
  20. The jackets have to protect the perimeter tonight and limit the option play of SC. SC’s qb does a decent job running it and making the pitch, they need to make him pay for it every time he goes to pitch. On offense just keep grinding the way they have the first couple of games and spreading the ball around and the jackets should come out on top. Springfield 35 SC 17
  21. I feel like Springfield is the better team, but that doesn’t always translate to wins on the field. I felt like last weeks game the team was a little lackadaisical in the first half but put together a solid second half. I don’t think the wet field will hurt the offense to much, the running game is looking better and better every week, and I don’t see it hurting the short to intermediate passing game much. If anything the it might affect the deep ball game, but that’s not a realiable winning strategy any way. I think defensively the jackets are better than SC and last weeks game helped getting the younger players some reps to shore up some depth issues. With all that said I think the Jackets should/need to win to put another solid preformance on the field before the meat of the region starts. Just my $.02.....
  22. No they'll be there, they’ve been advertising it all day on the radio. IDk if that means they’ll be putting the game on tv or what. They’re calling it their week 4 game of the week.
  23. Agreed. Some of these kids could have a shot to play at the next level. If these guys aren’t doing the prep work, on and off the field, during the week scouts and coaches take notice of that. It’s time to put or shut up and get it done, let’s go Jackets.
