One thing I notice about the dogs lot more athletic in backend this season. In my opinion Hampton in for special year. This team is state champion contender.
East Tennessee are in for big surprise with the cyclones, line play will be nasty, lot more athletic on defensive front, just let me say one thing they will be some new faces lol.
They need to play North Carolina team, will make them stronger playoff time. Someone like watauga would be good match up with them same quality athlete, or play more athletic team like ac Reynolds out of asheville.
Went to couple Hampton games, very solid team well coach. Very physical playing style , if they can work on their overall team speed this coming year, they have chance at championship.
Hibriten was bad last year, but they do have athletes. Best team from tenn I have seen play was that west Knoxville team, that had guy they went to Georgia tech, that Greenville team couple years ago was strong.
Agree with you, playing bad teams will not get you ready to play good competition . I felt like the Bulldogs ran out of gas last 5 minutes. Overall Hampton solid football team.
