    Good news again!

    Were these round ballers once year 'round basketball players that decided to play a lil FB? Did they have starting positions on the basketball team? If so, and they're freed to play FB also, that's got you headed in the right direction.

    Yea, SG looks tuff! Looking forward to meeting up with em

    I think it’s great that basketball players also play football. Some coaches frown upon the multi sport athlete—always worried about them getting hurt. But I spoke with a D1 athlete, old school Lady Rebel and her son has been just a basketball player but this year is also playing football. She said she was amazed at how much better he was when he played  in a 3 on 3 tournament after not having picked up a basketball in a while.  I firmly believe a kid can benefit from playing different sports and working different muscle groups and continuing to work on footwork or body positioning. Especially at a small rural school, coaches need to share the athletes and support the kids’ physical developments.

    Johnson County lost to Chucky 14 to 10, Hampton could have easily beat JC by 50. The game with HV was a fluke. GP is the real deal. Shame they have to deal with Alcoa.

    All true but we could also look at it this way:

    HV beats CD 14-6

    HV beats Hampton 14-8 

    So based on this could we assume Hampton is just a tiny bit better than CD??? I would say not. 

    Fact is these are teenage boys struggling with consistency. That’s why games are played.  Rivalries or conference games or just blowouts, the kids are trying to execute at a high level. Sometimes they do; sometimes they don’t.

    Maybe you do have an edge on SG. Hampton continues to improve, and we are still floundering trying to figure out how to play defense.

    Based on film, CD did play better against us than they did at JC, Cosby, or SN.

    Rebels win 38-33, fun game all around. I’m sure there will be huge rushing numbers by both teams. South Greene will have to tighten up on defense if they want to make another playoff run. Hopefully the Knights found something offensively going forward since Unicoi visits next week and will likely drop 50 points like they always do against us. Just a good night of football. At least the Vols can’t lose this weekend

    You couldn’t have said it any better. UGLY.

    Yeah you did put yours in that order. I just put our best against your best in a different order. Just to see if the win category would be different or if you might think it would be.  And you may be right about our path. It was similar last year as well. I do believe region one is better than last year and I believe South Greene is better than last year it's hard to tell considering they are too nice to each other lol.

    We try :flower::roflolk:

    I just graduated from CD 4 years ago, I don’t think it was ever really a hate filled rivalry. But that’s just my outside perspective, they could have had a south Greene voodoo doll in the locker room for all I know. I think the one team they just really really did not like was West Greene, pretty sure I heard a guy say he didn’t care if they went 1-9 as long as the 1 win was vs West Greene lol. Overall I think the local kids do a good job of realizing this is for fun while also wanting to win

    Agree but maybe a little less emphasis on fun and a bit more on winning :roflolk:

    Didn't mean to use such "STRONG" language. I should have been more sensitive and said two teams that have a difference of opinion.

    And yes adulthood should make us release there are genuinely good people everywhere. But teenagers are dumb, o'l sorry age challenged. 

    Lol just meant I don’t think we really hate each other. We just want to beat each other.

    I just hope it's a good clean game from both teams. I know when two teams that hate each other play sometime it can get a little cheep. The coaches need to keep it under control. And boys need to remember there is life after football.

    “Hate” is an awfully strong word. 

    Its funny now that I’ve been out of hs for a couple of decades+ some of my favorite people are from CD. I did say “some”. :D

    If the L to HV woke us up, and positive changes came from the loss that propel us forward, it was a blessing. That's the only way a loss to HV could be considered a blessing tho.

    Didn't JC have a time with S East and W Greene? I'm expecting a ballgame, but thot those two games would be handled easier 

    Not taking anything away from Hampton.  I’m sure you are ready for this game, but wasn’t JC dealing with the loss of Coach Smith the week they played WG? Even if you think you can handle that type of adversity and come out pumped, you are sometimes still in an emotional fog. I don’t care who you are, that’s tough to shake.  So, I wouldn’t expect this to be a cake walk—JC will play hard. I think Hampton has too many weapons though.

    If South Greene has any receiver with decent speed that can run a crossing route SG Qb will throw for 400 yards and 5tds. Which one of the Myers kids is the QB? I know they’re a hard pair to handle. South Greene on paper should win handily but it is a rivalry game so you never know, they’ve got some impressive wins

    Both play Qb but Levi is the 4 yr starting Qb

    We just gotta keep knocking em down....SG game will be a lot better ballgame than some think. It appears we match up pretty well and will also be at home.

    A few "ifs" but could end up with three teams with one conf loss each.

    Yes this will indeed be a good game.  This Reb ain’t assuming anything!!! Lots of respect for Hampton.
