I believe Lipscomb wins this game but it ain't going to be easy.

 

Lipscomb has had trouble defending the run at times this year and Giles has the players to hurt them. Dunnavant is an excellent runner at quarterback. He is also a good enough thrower to keep the Mustangs secondary honest. Edgmon is the best back in the region (outside of Elrod). If Giles lines up in the stack and starts hurting Lipscomb like Cheatham did it could be a long night. That's not all. Josh Perez is a big time player (I believe he's Giles Co.'s best player) at fullback. Giles can spread the field and he, along with JD, can hurt Lipscomb's defense. Stafford is a good enough kicker to help Giles win the field position battle against DL (not many teams have a shot to do that against Lipscomb).

 

On the other side of the ball Giles Co.'s defense will have a tough time stopping Lipscomb. DL has four backs that can take it to the house at any point in time during the game. They also have a QB-to-WR duo in Simpson-to-Rogers that Giles Co.'s secondary better learn to respect. Otherwise they'll be proned to the big play.

 

This one is a shootout at the Reese-Smith Athletic Complex next Friday night and I'll take the Mustangs to get the win by a final score of 41-28. It's going to be a shootout :rolleyes:

No way to call High School football but Lipscomb is a machine. They have averaged putting 30 points in the first half every week since week one. Against Cheatham Co and Creek Wood they put up 41 and 42 respectively in the first half. Against Spring Hill 7 backs scored, 11 ran the ball. The "D" has at times been weak but adjustments appear to have been made this week.

 

Giles Co. has played strong, solid and consistent football. They have beat up on recent opponents. But earlier mutual opponents played them close.

 

All in all, could be a good game. Let's all play in this thread with the same class we expect the teams to show Friday night.

People said the same thing before Giles played Ensworth (private vs. public) and Giles won that one. I'll have to put my faith in Giles Co. it's been along time since these guys have been in the position they are in now and I don't believe that they will just let someone walk in and just take it away without a good fight. They have just focused on the game at hand all year and haven't overlooked any opponet so far. They know DL will be their biggext game to date and I'm sure they will bring their A-game plus alittle extra to Nashville friday night. I believe it will be a close game but Giles Co. will prevail. GOOOOO BOBCATS.

Great opportunity for both teams on Friday night to showcase their hardwork that both teams and coaching staffs have put forth this season. There will be only one scoreboard winner walk off the field on Friday night; but two teams with winning attitudes and positive outlooks for the playoffs will walk off together. This game has the potential to be one of the greatest games in middle Tennessee this year.

 

Forget all the public vs. private yak-yak . . . enjoy the young men, bands, cheerleaders, fans playing in a great high school match-up!

 

Best of luck to both teams and staffs. And safe travel for the fans.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
