20-6 Tigers roll

If Harriman plays like they are capable... this should be a blow-out. Copper Basin hasn't really beaten anyone this year. They have a weak schedule and are lucky to even be in the play-offs. If Harriman comes together as a team, and stops playing as individuals, they should be just fine. Only problem is, can they do it? I have watched Harriman play several times this year and they look like 2 different teams. Depending on which team shows up determines this score. My prediction: Harriman - 32 Copper Basin -14

All you Hampton folks better not count your chickens before they hatch. This Tellico Plains team ain't no joke this year. Granted Hampton may have the better team, but they haven't played anyone this year that is as physical as this TP team. They are very good upfront, and not to mention probably having the best running back (O'dell) on this side of the bracket. If Hampton doesn't come ready to play, TP could very well find themselves in the 3rd round. I look for this game to come down to the wire. Hampton - 21 Tellico Plains - 20

Rockwood will have to play it's best ball of the year to keep this one close. I have seen both teams play this year, and both are pretty solid. Oneida is very strong up front and has some under estimated speed. They are probably the better team, but hey...it's play-off time, anything can happen! Rockwood really hasn't changed anything except for some success throwing it a little more. I look for this to be a defensive battle. If Rockwood can stop Oneida's offense then they will have a chance. Look for Oneida to mix it up and bring someone on every play to put pressure on Rockwoods QB. Prediction - Upset of the week! Rockwood - 28 Oneida - 24

Gonna be a great game tonight for the tigers. I feel like they are playing their best ball right now. If they continue to show up... they could be hard to handle in the 2nd and 3rd rounds. Rockwood by at least 2 scores.

This is going to be one heck of a game right here folks. The county championship and playoff seeds are up for grabs in this one. Both teams have had pretty good success this season, and I'm pretty sure both teams will make it to the playoffs. Harriman bunches it up and tries to pound it at you. Rockwood has been pretty balanced the last couple of weeks with Jolley putting some balls on the money early making teams respect his passing game. When all is said and done... this is going to be an Inman vs. Inman battle. Who is going to come out on top? My prediction: Rockwood-28 Harriman-14

I'm picking Rockwood in this one by 2 TDs. Rockwood-28 Tellico Plains-14

Oakdale just doesn't have it this year. Wartburg wins this one. Wartburg-20 Oakdale-6

UPSET of the week right here son... Midway is coming off back to back loses, I just don't see Moser's kids giving up that easily. They are a solid team that plays great at times. If they can get the ball rolling early tonight I look for Midway to get the win. Midway-21 Grace-20

I predict this is going to be one wet and sloppy ball game. Whoever can control turnovers wins this game. I think both teams will most likely keep it on the ground. Battle in the trenches again tonight. Oliver Springs-21 Coalfield-14

I'm still going with the Jackets in this one tonight, but BEWARE... if WAGGLE shows up, he will lead the Tigers to a victory over the Jackets. That will be the only hope that the Tigers might have tonight. So Rockwood.... if you want to win you better call on o'l WAGGLE to come outta retirement and bring his cheers to your sidelines tonight. Where's he, (WAGGLE), been this year anyway? GO JACKETS! me like trees! LOL

That's a low scoring prediction banjo... If Wartburg can hold the blue devils to less than 3 scores, they have a serious chance of winning. That would be a great game plan for Wartburg, if they can control the clock and keep it a low scoring game. I kinda doubt Tapp and the big blue are going to let that happen tho. They are going to try to open it up and put up some points. If you can stop Harriman's speed, and beat them in the trenches... It'll be one heckuva game. I'm still saying Tapp's blue devils roll in this one. Good luck to both teams!

I talked with some players from Harriman last night and boy are they are ready for this game. I thought they would be kinda cocky... but no way they are overlooking this one they said. "Wartburg has always caused us some trouble" they said. We are just gonna pound it at em and see if they can stop us. I don't think it will take any trick plays for the Blue Devils to win this one. Harriman rolls in this match up! Harriman-32 Wartburg-12

After reading some of these posts... looks like Bledsoe is already trying to make excuses talking about having to play the referees too. That's a ridiculous comment. Refs do sometimes make bad calls, but it's not like they are doing anything to keep you guys from winning. The game will be settled in the trenches tonight. Midway wins this one in a very close game. Could come down to which team is in better shape. I'm still picking the green wave in this one. Midway-32 Bledsoe-21

I look for the bobcats to handle Grundy tonight. They are big and physical this year and the kids up there have finally bought in to what coach Bracket is teaching them. I think OS wins by at least 2 TDs tonight. I think its their first home game of the season so i'm sure they are gonna want to show out in front of their home crowd. Good luck to both teams tonight, but i think OS wins easily.
