Dyersburg had a lot of seniors this year, but they always reload. Coach Stowe and company always do a great job. Covington is going to be loaded this year and lost vey little to graduation, their sophomore class is loaded as well. I don't see Covington taking a step back for a while. Covington also had Westview's number in McConnell's previous stint as well as 3 out of the 4 years of Ty Simpson's high school career. Ripley was pretty young as well and didn't lose much, they will have a larger senior class this year as well. I believe Westview will be good, but to say that these teams won't have a say so would be in injustice. I think it is safe to say that these 4 teams will represent the region in the playoffs most years. I will also say that it will be a sweep in the playoffs and there will be a rematch for some of these teams. Westview almost capitalized on the rematch with Dyersburg this year. It will be a fun region to watch.

The game was a little better than the final score indicated last time. If the Tigers want a chance just have to limit mistakes and find some offensive production. Never know they might surprise you, and then again they might not. Guess they did keep the kid at Sheffield in check, only giving up 8 points. Good Luck to both squads.

Big miss on that one haha. I thought this would be a much closer game. Man was I wrong. Hats off to the Dawgs and Coach Carr.

Running Clock at half for the Chargers. Skylan Smith will have a career night.

West Carroll in a shootout.

This one is tough, but I will take the Lewis County in this one. Tight game, but the home field advantage could be the edge.

Region 7 3A sweep. Sticking to it.

Ill take Crockett vs. Millington in this one. Millington does have an impressive QB. He is a four year starter and is very efficient with the football. I just believe Crockett will be too much for them and has played better competition throughout the year.

I watched it on youtube, and if it happened right before half, it was in the middle of the field and it looked like he was cutting in to make a move on the over pursuit. To say he was being tackled at the end of half running out of bounds, seems like your almost accusing it of being a dirty play, which it wasn't even close to being. The QB is a competitor and was trying to get another one in before half. Dyersburg is for real.

Yes i believe the sweep happens again. 7 3A is a tough region

McKenzie will be favored. I think the difference is McKenzie will get more stops than West Carroll. West Carroll will score on them though. McKenzie is just better defensively.

Dresden by as many as they want. Gleason kids will play hard though. This is a bitter rivalry.

Haywood by 14

Westview will be too much for McNairy quick. Region 7 3A has a clear divide based on scores of quality teams in the region. I will say though I am not so sure that Dyersburg will see Westview again this season. Not out of the question, but not a given either. I wouldn't be surprised if it is Covington or even Ripley that Dyersburg faces for a second time in the playoffs. This will be a fun bracket out of the playoffs to watch.

Thats what makes high school football great. It doesn't matter what you did last year or that last 25 years against an opponent. Anything can happen in a high school football. I am willing to bet Ripley's team doesn't believe they have zero percent chance to win the game, and if people think the game is decided before games are played, then thats when people get shocked. That is truly why so many of us watch these games with so much intent and excitement this week. Maybe the rivalry gets renewed tonight, maybe not, but I believe this one will be a fun one to watch. Congrats to both teams for a good season so far and best of luck to both moving forward.

I don't know much about Moore Co. this year. McKenzie is not as good as last year and Dresden handled them pretty easily already. MASE's schedule is why i give the edge to Dresden or Union City. They both play a much tougher schedule and are battle tested. The only good opponent on MASE's schedule they lost handily to. Moore County looks to be the toughest out of all the teams you listed. I am only going with recent history when i say the winner of region 7 or that area in 1A has been going to Chattanooga in recent years.

you would think the Lake Co. kid would be a lock at this point with 3 games left. It would be interesting to see The QB and RBs stats from Dresden, they are some ballers too.

1. Dresden 2. Union City 3. Lake County 4. South Fulton The potential rematch in the 3rd round with UC and Dresden is something to look forward to. Most likely the winner is who represents the West at Chattanooga.

There are still a lot of scenarios that can still play out in this region. I believe right now Dyersburg and Ripley are in for sure in the playoffs with 4 region wins. It will be interesting how this one plays out. Although some might not see it as likely, anything can happen in high school football and that is what makes it fun to watch.

Loretto definitely seems better than recent years. Good for the players, coaches and community. Keep it up young men.

I can definitely see this being one of the most athletic secondaries and defenses Westview has seen and will see for the year. It will be an interesting matchup for #1 from Westview. Is the the big # 41 RB back for Ripley? He was a load the last couple years.

Covington finds a way to win. Coach Kirby always gets his team better as the year goes and I expect nothing less. He has done it year in and year out. They are tough out for anyone!

I agree, Pearl Cohn is the cream of the crop on the West side of the bracket. They will walk to Chatt this year. Don't be surprised if they bring the gold ball back this year as well. They bring so much experience back off of that team that pushed a very good Anderson County to the brink last year.

Westview beats Ripley by the same margin they beat Liberty by? Curious what made you predict that?

I will say it will be a good game, I just think Dresden finds a way to win. Hodge gets the most out of his guys and will have them ready. It is also at home and Dresden is tough there. Obion might have a hang over from the shoot out with Haywood.
