JOHNSON COUNTY AT ELIZABETHTON

[cyclonehorns]

The game I have waited for all year. Always check your chin strap, and buckle that helmet on good when the longhorns are coming to town. By far the hardest hitting team in the conference. (yeah Tn High your close this year, but the horns get the nod). This should be a good game if Cyclones get focused, and put the game back in P's hands. We saw what happened last week, when they finally turned him loose again. Lets mix it up this week keep em guessing, and score alot. We need to start the best lineman, and forget who the seniors are, and get to the playoffs. Last week was the fewest flags I have seen this year. good job rt side of the line, some big holes were opened up. Lt side needs to step it up. and the middle needs to be plugged. Humphrey will be a tough guy to block who is up to it? Horns have good speed, and can throw the ball, something they usually can't do well. secondary better be ready to cover the receivers, and not just prudohme. i know a few more up there who can catch. This game will be decided by turnovers. the fewest turnovers will win the game. I look for P to have a good game. The Defense HAS to shutdown Atwood. Tn high did a good job of it. Ends need to cut off the outside, and turn things back in. Big game needed from 41 44, I think the cyclone will do it and keep the playoff streak alive. A little help from central would be nice too. Go CYCLONES, but good luck to the horns. Hey Mike you got a spot in post season, rest Jessie a little for those games.. lol Yeah I know where you want me to stick it..ha ha I hear that Penley kid is a chip off the ol block so give him some playing time at ol ETOWN. I want to see him play..

If Betsy can slow Atwood down theyll have a chance. I pick J Co in this one, but they really havent won the big game yet in 4A, so therefore that could haunt them. Did Justin Harmon g2 J Co in junior high?

Elizabethton has too much pride to let this one go. Destiny fulfilled. EHS-14/JCHS-7.

The key in stopping Johnson Co is simple…shut Atwood down. Of course saying it and doing it are two different things as many have found out this year. They focus there whole offensive scheme around his success in running the ball. All the rest is just a smoke screen to try and keep the other team off balance. Atwood is a TOUGH, HARD running kid with good speed and if you don’t key on him he will hurt you quickly. If they can keep Atwood under 60 yards, and if Elizabethton’s O-line gives Preston time to throw and room to make plays, the Cyclones could make this one a nail biter. But I have to be honest…Elizabethton will have to be mentally prepared for this one or it will get out of hand, because you better believe the Longhorns are coming to play ball!! And after the loss to the Vikings, they are out to save face.

True that. When Preston puts the ball in your hand you must catch it! Who wants this one more? J County so to prove they are for real...or Betsy to prove they always have been and still are? Will be but yet another classic.

[compusatman]

One thing is for sure...J County has not had to excuse themselves yet this year. No, they have not played 5A schools and yes they have played 2-3A schools but many others have also. The fact is they have played the same tough football week in and week out and this week will be no different. If they have anything they have consistancy which cannot be said for Betsy. I chose Betsy because of one endearing factor...Heart. Heart will win this game or the lack of will lose it. Betsy, do you have Heart? Remember, this game is 90% mental!

This is the NET game of the week, (D-B should handle Science Hill) Elizabethon has to stop Atwood and put pressure on the QB when he drops back. Johnson County needs Atwood to come back after a frustrating performance against the stengy THS defense. Also, the Longhorns must contain Preston Smith and put pressure on him all night. All in all it comes down to Preston Smith's playmaking ability against Jessie Atwood's (both depend on team's effort). These 2 Seniors will step up on their final regular season game. Smith has more motivation because if he loses, it will be his final game in the Orange and Black. O ya and it's in E Town. 14 straight playoff appearances on the line for the Cyclones.
