However, I believe Carter will be able to throw the ball pretty effectively. From what I've heard, one of AC corners is only about 5'11"-5'12" (Correct me if im wrong). Therefore, that lack of size on the one position might be exploitable.

 

Not to be picky, but 5'12" is kind of like 6' isn't it? If it is, that is actually not that much of a size advantage in high school football...there are not too many teams that have multiple receivers over 6'. Carter doesn't have too many tall receivers, do they? Sorry, had to get that out in the open, believe me sportsnut, I am on your side and I felt I would be more gentle than these other thugs /roflolk.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflolk:" border="0" alt="roflolk.gif" /> !

My bad I meant to put down 5'9" and 5'10". I apologize. Carter has #83 who is about 6'2ish if not more and I believe he will be able to create some problems. #82 is probably around 5'11" side so that will be a fairly even height matchup. Thank you for correcting me in a gentle manner, again i apologize for the mistake

Not a problem sportsnut, that is why I am here. I think that this game will be won by the team that sticks to the run. This game will be won by the offensive line that wants to win the most; as are most games, but I think that between these two teams, the one that runs will be the one that wins.

Ok, I am under the impression that almost everyone is going with Anderson County. I feel that they are a good team that has survived the toughest region in the state. There is no true way to predict a winner, and we all know that games could go either way depending on how the kids are feeling, the weather, pregame meals, etc. But just looking back at the season I noticed a few things that may level the field for the lowly teams from Region 1:

 

1. Opponents win/loss rankings:

Looking at the win/loss records of the teams that AC beat, it adds up to 22-48.

Looking at the win/loss record of the teams that Carter beat, it adds up to 30-40.

 

2. Opponents' record

Anderson County beat 1 team with a winning record, Kingston at 6-4.

Carter beat 2 teams with winning records, Seymour at 8-2 and Rutledge at 7-3.

 

3. Points scored versus Points given up

Anderson County has scored 273 points and given up 197 points which is a difference of 1.4

Carter has scored 228 points and given up 166 points which is a difference of 1.4

 

4. Losses

Anderson County has lost to Catholic 10-0(27-14), Fulton 8-2(44-7), and AE 7-3(36-2) a final score of 107-23

Carter has lost this year to Bearden 9-1(38-0), South-Doyle 4-6(20-13), and AE 7-3(41-0) a final score of 99-14

 

I am well aware that statistics can be used to prove whatever you want, but as far as I am concerned these two teams are pretty evenly matched. I do not see a big difference between these two teams and this should be one heck of a game. Good luck to them both and may the winner play in Murfreesboro.

Good post from the underbrush. The only thing I'd point out is that AC beat Powell, which, like South Doyle, is in Region 3 4A. Powell beat SD 30-9, even though SD did pull some upsets on some of the other schools in that Region, which is the best Region in 4A year in and year out. So, that's another statistical point in AC's favor.

You can't use trasitive logic when involving South Doyle...otherwise Seymour would've lost to them just as Carter did and the Rutledge-Carter game would've been even more significant for the Pioneers...having said that, AC has a lot between the ears with their coaching staff and has been in the situation before on the road against Region 1 teams. Carter will need to be more like the Carter of 2005 or even mid-season this year in order to stay in another week...that homefield advantage needs to mean something.

    • So much talk about an investigation about student record manipulation and then everything has went silent. Has anyone heard how the investigation is going?
    • Basically what you're saying is schools can basically bully students around and get away with it because they are protected. I agree to a certain extent but when schools decisions to keep knuckleheads on staff starts costing kids careers and a college education there is a problem. Our school system last week had a teacher supposedly push a kid and the parents went to the law and the teacher is suspended. So I wouldn't say that they can just do what they want without liability. This case don't pass the smell test because the coach had already been fired before and she got fired after a year on the job. Sounds like the student was right in this case on the outside looking in because the coach gets fired after one year. How many coaches get fired after one year?? Not many. 
    • Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen. 
    • I know the RB from OR he’s fast and has good hands. Is good on special teams also. Didn’t want to play defense over to the Ridge.
