Lets be real here.............crocket by 14.

[RipleyTiger54]

Lets be real here.............crocket by 14.

Crocket should take the week off if they are so sure of a win. No need to prepare for little ole Ripley.

I think the cavs are in for a really, really tough test. I'll make a pick later, but from everything i've heard ripley has a great defense, lots of athleticism and some bigtime size. With the two big hole pluggers up front and an underrated offense, plus homefield advantage, i think we're in for a great one!

Hmmm......how good is this defense really.....i mean so far Ripley has went against who?????? Lets go ahead and break this defense down. They have shut out two teams this season so far. Manassas(who everyone shuts out) is averaging 5.6 ppg. Tredwell,Ripleys other shutout, has averaged 5.0 ppg(yeah lower than Manassas). The teams Ripley have beaten post a combined record of 5-14and is 9-15 if you wanna count dyersburg. Their one lost coming against dyersburg(whom Crockett has toppled) where they allowed 27 points.Now true this defense has held teams to and average of 11.2 ppg but once again outside of dyersburg the teams they have faced off against are 5-14.

 

Crockett on the other hand has just as good if not better "D"(offense just over shines this). Crockett has only allowed an 8.2 ppg average and has went against teams that post offensive number. Milan has a 40.5 ppg average if you dont count the 14 that they were held to at Cavalier stadium.Obion has averaged 37.8 ppg apart from the 7 that the cavs held them to. Dyersburg(44.8ppg aside from the cavalier loss) was held to 14 points against the cavaliers.The cavaliers are dominate on defense the other two teams we have faced off against we hammered and posted big numbers and allowed only one score in the bolivar game. The cavs defense is just as good if not better and the opposing teams combined record is at 14-10 , 5 of those losses coming from oakhaven). So far the cavs have faced better teams and have won we know what the offense can do and as you see here we know what the defense has done this season.......kept ppl out of the endzone.

 

These figures dont lie.........both teams post very good defenses but i do believe that Ripley hasnt faced an offense of the Cavaliers caliber yet and well the cavs beat dyersburg so yeah. I dont believe that the cavs will take the week off RipleyTiger54 because as an ex cav myself i know even when Manassas came into town we were still prepared and we still had our gameplan that week.P.A. will not over look anyone in region 7-3A because like the ole saying goes "Anyone can be beat on anygiven night". I just dont see it happening to the cavs this week.I pic the Cavs in a 35-14 win this season (yet another 21 point victory over Ripley except this time you guys score).

Doubt that happens to a team like Crockett , this is going to be a huge region game for both teams,

Ripley 20 Dyersburg 27 in week2,

Dyersburg 14 Crockett 28 in week4,

 

and u think Crockett is going to take the week off

 

THIS WILL BE A GREAT GAME

Okay TigerNation........hmmmmm i believe that i broke down fairly well the defenses. I understand the fact that Bolivar and Oakhaven are not considered (as you say) "POWERHOUSES". But my friend i do believe that as of right now Obion is ahead of Ripley in the region. Obion is a good team and voted by many preseason pollls to edge out Ripley and be a sleeper(injury bug has plagued the team). Milan is a team that will always be in the playoffs and they usually turn it on in the playoffs and make a deep run dispite what happens in the regular season.Ala last few years where they have eliminated Both Westview and Huntingdon in the playoffs. Crockett beat Dyersburg , Ripley did not.

 

I do respect the fact that Ripley is at home against the Cavs and if there is any chance of the cavs being beat its on the road. I do respect the Ripley defense which in my book is considered ONE of the best in the region. Ripley has size, strength , team quickness , and athleticism. All im sayin is that the cavs have all these things on defense as well. Who gives anyone the right to say that Ripley has the best defense in the region when the only team they have played in the region was a loss where they allowed 27 points. I do believe that this will be one for the books and will be a slobber knocker. Hope no one gets hurt and wish both teams the best luck. May the best Cavalier win!

I don't really see anyone that can line up and go right at Ripley. They have 300 lbers across the front and these aren't short fat guys. They are studs. The tight end is a major prospect.

And the Cavalier offensive line has blocked ppl this size before. Dispite being undersize technique will always win. I was a Offensive Tackle last year and i blocked ppl bigger and better than me trust me when i say that this o-line will find a way to block these big hosses on ripley. I truly believe we have the best offensive line coach in west tennessee on any high school level. I do believe that we will run on them and run well. We have a back with a 220 lb frame and he has carried the load thus far and he will continue to do so because his o-line will make the necessary blocks to give him his holes to hit. We have speed and we have a well improved QB in Massey.......he has done an excellent job this year with the offense. Like i have said the tigers havent faced an offense this powerful yet. This will be the true test for the tigers.........lets see how they take it.
