CARTER VS MORRISTOWN EAST

[Newman]

Speedy,

I agree. I have many connections in the "mo" town area and they are chomping at the bit to get at a carter team that they think is very overrated. They believe that carter's kids will be getting the big head with their top 10 ranking and think they just have to show up to win. According to someone very close to their program, their defense hasn't really stepped up and hit anybody yet and, even though their running backs have played pretty well, they seem to go down pretty easy. I've not seen them play myself, but if they come out flat friday look out.

Play4,

 

1UK1VOL, Too bad on the buggy, you had your chance, and the way gas prices are I am glad you passed. 45 mpg looks pretty good right now. You can always borrow it though any time, it is just now getting good riding weather.

 

You can always hitch a ride up to watch him play, but after coming in last week in the fourth quarter with his team behind 23-10 and leading them to two TD's in the final 8 minutes of the game for a 24-23 win, he tore up the same ankle he hurt both his soph, and senior years, on the next to last play of the game. So instead of most likely earning the starting QB spot he will unfortunately be on the sidelines on crutches. It is disappointing, but all things happen for a reason I guess.

 

Big Daddy,

Let me know when he gets better I would love to go.

After seeing some film on the hornets I think there are quite a bit of weaknesses in an overated team. First off, they have awful special teams, especially kick-off. They have given up a big kickoff return in every game; the pigeon forge one almost cost Carter the game. Another weakness seems to be in line play. Even in the blowout against a bad cocke county team, the line seemed to give up too much penatration. East is a team that has good talent, a good staff, and they are playing at home on homecoming; Canes by two touchdowns.

 

East- 24

Carter- 10

What happened to the Garrettson kid? What kind of injury did he have? He seemed to be a pretty mature kid. The people I've spoken with thought he might play some DE in college. What kind of hands does he have?

[lakewayfan4]

Garrettson is questionable for the game, but since it is homecoming he will probably play. Even if he does not play, East is more than up to the task of handling this one. The Canes have a few suprises in store, and I stick to my earlier prediction; no matter what the knoxville journal thinks.

Sorry 'Cane fans...you struggled to beat Volunteer last week...and that ain't good news when you have Carter coming up...Homecoming or not, it could get ugly.

 

Although I will say I was shocked that Carter didn't rip Pigeon Forge because the Tigers weren't very impressive in the game I saw them play against Rutledge.

 

Still...Carter has more than enough to win this one.

[lakewayfan4]

East has had some struggles early this season, but they have been against 4a and 5a teams. Carter may come out on fire, but as has been seen on film, if East holds strong for 2 quarters it will be a Cane victory. Carter is a one half team.

[splainshornets]

Didn't our QB have about 100 yards rushing against you all last year?

[lakewayfan4]

That was last year, didn't East win two years ago; if we are taking a ride on a time machine. And wasn't that during East's homecoming? Watch out hornets, you are going to play a real football team tonight.

[lakewayfan4]

And from what has been shown on film this year, he is not half as good as he was a year ago. He seems indecisive and afraid to mess up stats.

This game is really hard to figure out. Homecoming for Morristown East and

it should bring out the fans. Carter is 4.0 this season and they want to stay in

the state rankings. The team that is leading at half time will win.

 

 

go Canes
