Gallatin vs. Hillwood

[wavelink101]

1st region game for the Wave...let's hear it!!

[bleacher]

Gallatin is too deep, too talented, and too well coached for an undermanned Hillwood to play with them. It will be as ugly as Coach Lassiter wants.

It was good to see a win in the 1st game and as I could tell only Miller had an injury. IF it were up to me I would dress Miller, but I would only use him IF it was needed. That's not to say Hillwood will be a pushover or anything like it. What worries me about this game is that everytime Gallatin is supposed to have a big night of scoring we have taken it on the losing end...(McG in 04' and Overton 06') as of late. I would really like to see a complete game out of the team this week. Maybe they got the wake up call against a GOOD Lebanon team last night that you really do play like you practice. 1st home game should be a Large crowd with a lot of the wood work fans coming out this week.

Gallatin.

I don't know about this year, but If Hillwood is anything like last year, then they have about the least amount of depth that a 5-A team can have. This can really make a difference in a game, especially late in the 3rd and in the 4th quarter. I hope to see Gallatin improve a good deal on offense this week, and if the D plays like it did vs. Lebanon, then they won't be giving up ANY points to Hillwood. This should be a pretty one-sided game unless Gallatin gives up the big play.

 

Prediction: Gallatin 28 Hillwood 7

Once again, not much love for the Green Wave in the top 20 fan poll this week. Gallatin is still at #9, but that is alright with me. I don't want our guys getting that big head. I know it is cleche, but you gotta take them one at a time. One interesting note, however,: Murphy Fair has Gallatin at #1 in his rankings. The last time I heard Ole Murphy say anything about Gallatin, he got shown the G-factor. Maybe he just doesn't want history to repeat itself. No seriously, he said on 104.5 that he thought Gallatin had an outstanding chance to go 10-0 this season.

Just because ole Murph says it doesn't mean it is true. We have a lot of work to do by what I saw to be a true #1. Have we got the type of players? Oh yeah. Have we got the talent? Oh yeah. Depth? Oh yeah. The desire? We'll see. I think that after this week we may get a better idea of what a team looks like playing on the same page. While we don't need to take Hillwood for granted, they are not the caliber of team that Lebanon is. But they can easily beat you if you let them stay around. Putting points on the board quick and often will only help Gallatin and demoralize this Topper team. One major area of concern could be the defense of Hillwood. The pass happy Independence team got two of there scores via the special teams. That could mean that their pass defense and speed ain't too bad.

We didn't look all that great Friday, but a lot that was because it was the first game. This will get ugly quick.

 

Wave bye bye toppers.

Bottom line is Gallatin could play their freshman team against Hillwood, and that would make for a decent game. Hillwood is no where near anyone in the region. Gallatin by whatever they want it to be.

That's a pretty stupid statement to make, I realize that hillwood doesnt have the depth, suppport or funding that Gallatin has but you dont need to trash talk to that extent. It would take one of the greatest games hillwood has played in the past two years in order for them to come out on top, having said that if it makes you feel better to cut on them like that then go ahead. Hillwood already has several obsticales to overcome that 90% of high school teams out there dont have to deal with and then they have to compete in 5A on top of all that. They try their hardest but success for them will probably never come in 5A
