Is anyone beside me looking for this to be a much better contest than the regular season game?

 

 

I do look for it to be a better game. All players that were out for MC in the first game have returned except for one. The ones that are back are still a little bruised up and will have to step up and make some plays, especially since they are all seniors.

 

I am a diehard MC fan, always have been and always will and I think that MC has the team to beat Lipscomb, there are a lot of things that will have to happen for that to happen. If Lipscomb wins -- I will guarantee you that it won't be by 35 points or more -- Take that to the bank

 

I say MC by a TD ................ Bring your A-Game that is what it will take to win this game

 

 

ps -- Whats the chance of DL renting some bleachers for a crowd like the one that will be in Nashville again this week. I was there at 6:15 PM in week 9 and all 25 seats on the visiting side were taken /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" />

I don't expect the mercy rule to come into play this time. However, I don't see MC having enough defense to slow DL down either. If Marshall Co. uses Hightower more on offense, they have a chance at playing keep away. I think that is what you have to do with David Lipscomb. Run the ball right at them. Their defensive line is not huge and neither are their LBs. However, the D-line and LBs run well. Pounding the ball at them for 3yds and a cloud of dust also keeps the Mustang offense off the field, which is the best way to defend Jeremy Holt and the boys.

 

I think a team later on in the playoffs (Dyer Co. or Dyersburg or Catholic) will be able to execute this strategy to put the Mustangs to the test. I am just not sure if the Tigers have enough players to execute this type of gameplan.

Hightower must be a beast that night and Cavella must be able to contribute.....and the Tigers must play error-free ball.

 

DL must suffer a meltdown like they did against Goodpasture late in the game.

 

If these things happen......MC can win.....otherwise DL moves onto the next round.

 

 

 

 

I agree bulldog..You seen it last week O'neals first game back the defense was alot more comortable knowing that he was there he had two forced fumbles i think....and Hightower still isnt 100% he's maybe about 80% but i agree if these two players arent at there best MC has no chance also GIVE HIGHTOWER THE BALL...also Joe Gentry senior ILB well have to play hard as well

What is Trevor Walker's status? Also, is Greer back from the collarbone injury? Seems like he should be getting cleared soon.

    • I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
    • I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
