randy3116 Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 West Region Fairley Bulldogs (9-3) at Henry County Patriots (8-4) Last meeting: N/A The Bulldogs have been on a roll since their last loss to Melrose and I don’t think the Pats defense will be able to put together enough stops. Pick: Fairley by 8 Mid-state Region Clarksville Wildcats (9-3) at Hillsboro Burros (12-0) Last meeting: N/A The Burros will be the 4th 9-win team (at a minimum) that the Wildcats have faced in as many weeks. Pick: Hillsboro by 12 Southeast Region Maryville Rebels (12-0) at Red Bank Lions (12-0) Last meeting: N/A Looking at points scored and allowed over this past season, the Lions are statistically superior to the Rebels; however, when you look at games against +.500 teams, the Rebels have performed better. Pick: Maryville by 6 Northeast Region Morristown East Hurricanes (9-3) at Morristown West Trojans (12-0) Last meeting: Sept. 29th: West-45 at East-24 Conventional wisdom says that the nexturf field should benefit East’s speed in the backfield but, similar to Maryville, the Trojans seem to have performed better than the Canes throughout the season against +.500 teams, last week's game at South, notwithstanding. Pick: Morristown West by 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pick: Morristown West by 10 Just to correct your last meeting on the West Region: Fairley vs. Henry County Last year the Bulldogs came into Henry County and lost 45-26. My opinion would be that it will be a similar affair this year with HC beating Melrose and putting more points on them than has been done in recent memory...

Pick: Morristown West by 10 Pretty good breakdown but do not be fooled by Fairley and their great season against he lilkes of opponents being a combined 49-78, as compared to that of Henry county being 80-49. Melrose could not stop the Henry county running game and neither will Fairley. Henry county by 18. As for Hillsoro, well how good are they, I am not sure, I guess that I will go with the underdog on this one as well. CLarksville by 6 Well on the east side of things I must go with Maryville by 17 West over East by well 26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CLarksville by 6 Well they are 12-0 and scoring at will and committed 8 turnovers in their first two playoff games and still won. Not many teams can do that. Blade will cut out the turnovers and the Burro's will roll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blade will cut out the turnovers and the Burro's will roll. I have looked at the stats but wins over a subpar Rossview and an average Mt. Juliet at best, is not all that tellilng on how good they are. They are a good team without a doubt but they did play a pretty eak schedule, aside from Maplewood who played a similarly weak schedule, who have they beaten, opponents combined record, 51-65, take out Maplewood, and it is 42-63. a quick look at their schedule shows me 0-10 Hillwood, 0-10 shelbyville, 5-5 whites creek, 3-7 hickman, 2-8 lawrence county, my point is who have they beaten. They may indeed win the championship but nothing to this point in the season would suggest that they are that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliet all had more than 8 wins and were in the playoffs. Antioch slaughtered CHS at the season opener at CHS and Beat a very good Dickson county team.

Footballfan15 Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 Well I guess your right Hillsboro hasn't beaten anyone but eight teams that made the post season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
