This is a HUGE game for both teams. If you look at the schedules, Hendersonville still has Gallatin and Hunters Lane after the matchup with Overton, two of the best teams in the region. Overton has McGavock and Hillwood after Hendersonville. I think if Overton wins, they will make the playoffs and Hendersonville will be on the outside looking in with the upcoming schedule. If Hendersonville wins, they put themselves in a good position to make it and Overton has to have a lot go right for them to get in.
I think the game comes down to the wire. Overton was beat up against Gallatin with multiple injuries at key positions, one being key OL/DL Cornell. With Cornell coming back anchoring the line, I look for them to give White some room to run and pull out the win.
