Rhea County @ Hixson

I think the inexperience of Hixson in key positions puts them at a disadvantage. I think Rhea Co. gets this one in a close one.

I havent had the chance to see Hixson this year....just know what I have read. Everybody is talking about Rhea's passing attack but the ground game is much improved from last year, they got behind so quick to Ooltewah they were not able to use it much. I understand Hixon also has a pretty good QB and Rhea's defense still has some work to do.....should be a good game but I am taking the home team.

Sorry Ben....What I meant by home team was my home town team.....The game is at Hixson and the Wildcats are the home team.

I agree If not for the first quarter Rhea could have played a closer much better game, Maybe just MAYBE and a chance of beating the Owls.. as for Hixson I think Hammontree will put the "D" together and the offense will be cliking the WR's dropped some open passes in that first quarter last week look for that to change this week

I know that they had an injury last week at center and had to do some shuffling around on the line, but I am not sure about this week. I did hear that they have lost starting receiver Cain Hammontree for the year with a torn ACL.

[BenHasRisen]

Was he a senior? Hope not, that stinks to see anyone have to go through that.

[bigin52]

Answer to ? Cain Hammontree is a JR so he will be back next year.

The starting center for last wk. had a eye injury and is back this wk.

The starting tackle for last year may be playing both sides of the ball,

He's playing on the defense this year.

If i had to pick the 5 most important region games this year that will shape the regions playoff picture this would be in that top 5. This game is HUGE for both teams..Losing Hammontree hurts Rhea becuase he was a big target who was most likely going to have a breakout year. I think losing him evens the field a little bit in this game.. Rhea,Cleveland,Red Bank,Hixson, and White County all expect to make the playoffs...not hope to but expect to so someone will be left out and the winner of this game will take a BIG step in getting there
