Milligan is out with a broken foot. He did it in the first quarter of the JCM game and played on it the rest of the game. Gutsy performance in a huge game.

Starks was injured in the fourth quarter of the Brighton - Hardin County game. I don't know if he has played since then. He's a great athlete....hope he heals up.

I have to agree. While most teams have focused on stopping Milligan, which they hardly have, they have found out that Hardin County brings a lot more to the table than just their QB. There's Chuck Tucker who scored four touchdowns on a Northside defense that held JCM to 6 points through 3 quarters. Also there is DeBerry who had 5 catches, 4 for touchdowns, for 200+ yards Friday night. So you can say that they only have a QB but I believe you will be proved wrong this Friday.

It will be interesting. If JCM wins out, they win. If Henry Co. wins out, they win. Hardin Co. has to have Henry lose to JCM and Northside AND win out, and they win. Although JCM controls their own destiny, they have a though road to travel. And even though Hardin Co. has the best overall record, their one loss to a region team that's in the driver's seat hurts them. Henry Co. can afford to slip up against Northside, still beat JCM and win it. Whats interesting is that JCM's loss to Brighton hurts Hardin County. For hypothetical purposes, lets say that JCM beat Brighton. OK now say Henry beats Northside and loses to JCM. Hardin wins out and beats Lexington, Munford, and JCM. Now we have a triangle situation. All three teams have one region loss and it is a tie. The result is the title goes to the team with the best overall record. Hardin is the only one loss team in the region. They win. However, in reality if that happens, JCM has two region losses, Henry and Hardin both have one. Henry has them head-to-head.

This one has the makings of a great high school football game. Lexington is #1 in the Jackson Sun Dirty Dozen and #3 in the state in 3A. Hardin Co. #11 in the Dirty Dozen and #11 in 4A. This has always been a great rivalry. Three years ago Hardin County won in double overtime. Lexington has won very close games the last two years. Also, HC's Coach William McAdams, who is from Lexington, is looking for his 100th career win. 2 common opponents, Bolivar and Memphis Sheffield. Lexington beat Sheffield 28-20. Hardin County beat Sheffield 27-6. Lexington beat Bolivar 43-21. Hardin County beat Bolivar 35-0 in a game that was called at halftime. Hardin County has to contain RB Kevis Buckley. He scored on the first play from scrimmage in last year's game on a long reception. Amazing speed. Lexington looks to stop Adam Milligan who is coming off a 4 touchdown performance against Brighton. 255 yards through the air and 116 on the ground. I can't wait.

Even with a losing record, JCM is the obvious choice with losses to 2 good teams. However, one could make a case for JCS. I don't know anything about DCA, but a close loss to a team in a higher classification doesn't look too bad for them. They've already won the Jackson private school title, embarassing USJ and Trinity. I know they're 1A, but it seems to me they're flying under the radar a bit. They will prove their worth this Friday against a much improved Fayette Ware team. Also, you could throw Liberty in the mix. They've got those 2 though losses in 3A to Lexington and Huntington. Mind you, I'm not even from Jackson, but this strikes me as interesting. Opinions? Volunteer General?

this should be a tough game for hc Brighton seems to be alittle better than was predicted,Right now everyone in the region knows that it's thier QB to the right or left or up the middle Word is stop HC's QB and you can win. 825746848[/snapback] Not true. Hardin County shut down McNairl on the ground, but Henry found other ways to score on their defense. He threw for 2 touchdowns, one of them a fluke, but still....credit Henry for finding ways to score on Hardin's defense after they held him to little yardage running the football. Henry County is a good team, and you can't beat yourself while playing them, as Hardin County did.

Well, don't guess it was much of a game, huh. Hardin County's defense was amazing. I didn't see the Henry Co. game, but I hear they got rattled and outplayed. Last night, Hardin's defense forced 3 turnovers and scored two touchdowns in the first SEVEN minutes. I saw them shut Bolivar down and last night they were very impressive. The defense played so well that the offense didn't even have to show up. HC's defense scored more points than Adamsville's offense. I think the Tigers made a statement last night that they goofed up against Henry County and aren't out of it in region 7-4A.

That is a likely situation....but watch out for Henry Co. or Brighton. Both Hardin Co. and JCM play them this weekend, respectively. Don't be surprised if either Hardin or JCM loses. I was at the HC-Bolivar game and was very impressed with their defense and Milligan their quarterback. If Hardin County gets into a defensive struggle with anybody, i would bet on them to win. As for if HC and JCM meet in week 10 to play for the region championship, i think it's too early to tell who wins that game.

Sorry pal, but i think it's rather ridiculous that you're threatening houston county that you're gonna play them like you did McNairy. I mean, you lost. bottom line. I know the circumstances, and I know you held them to 9 yards total offense. That's impressive. I also know that you may have won if the game if it hadn't have been called. I realize that. But it just seems absurd to talk trash after losing.

Easy, there Killer. It's gonna take more than a losing effort to beat that bunch from Hardin County. I saw them completely shut down Bolivar's offense the other night, and Adam Milligan is amazing with the football. I'm not saying that Hardin County will win, but I think it'll be a great game between the Cougars and the Tigers.

Lexington - Buckley WR Hardin Co - Milligan QB , Carroll DE McNairy Co - Browder QB , Emmons TE JCM - Borner QB Southside - Hayes LB McKenzie - Hayes QB

Should be interesting to see how this one turns out. JCM looks to be strong again this year, and newcomers Henry Co and Brighton bring some spice to the region. Any word on Northside? I know they were kind of down last year.

You'll probably get all you want when you come across the river to play Hardin County. Stadium ought to be packed.
