Centennial had some really long drives against Siegel (They had the ball for drives of 8 minutes at a time and kept the rock the whole second half.) and a couple against Brentwood early in the season. Don't get me wrong though. Centennial is a big play offense. They run certain plays to get you to make that one mistake so they can take advantage. Most teams cannot stop their big play capabilities. They just have to keep them at a minimum. Good luck to both teams.

 

 

Also had a clock killer after Ravenwood closed to 36-28. Scored on a long drive but a holding penalty and the worst unsportsmanlike call in history pushed it back to around the 35. They just stayed on the ground and scored a second time to finish the game.

An interesting stat, Centennial has beaten only one team with a winning record all year.

 

yes i did point that out that CHS needs to win a game that is of importance - i may just be wrong and no one is a pro at pickin these games or any games for that matter, but i believe gallatin has got the better team to play in CHS ( i could be crazy and the wave lose and HHS beat RHS ) but this matchup better suits your green wave team -

the CHS defense can be very prone to giving up pts and some long sustained drives- Cent has tremendous speed, no doubt-

I must agree after seeing both of these teams in person at one point in the season that speed will be the major difference here. One point I have to differ with in an earlier post is the offensive line of Gallatin. I was not impressed whatsoever. #78 has great size but really didn't lay the wood to anyone. Also the line made initial blocks but didn't stay engaged. HOWEVER, Centennial's defense up front is nothing special since Orlando McGloskey broke his leg. I have a feeling this may very well be a high scoring event with Centennial's speed giving them the slight edge although they cannot afford to turn the ball over the way they did against Franklin. It should be a great game in a great atmosphere. Both squads should be proud of their efforts in 2008.

 

 

You haven't seen #78 lay wood on anyone? Have you not seen this kid pull? Plus the starting RB sanchez holder is back as well as the WR #5 woods... It will be a great game to watch.

 

Gallatin gets it 24-21

I went and saw Gallatin play Glencliff, McGavock, and Hendersonville.

I am not saying #78 is a bad player. He could just be more physical. Half the time when he pulls, he can't get to the DE or LB before the back is already by him. Secondly when making contact, he shield blocks quite often. A kid with this size should be laying people out EVERY play. These are just observations from the bleachers. Best of luck Friday night.

I saw large gapping tracts of land in 2 of those games and a half of the other. He may not be serving breakfast at the House of Pancakes but when the defender is not making the tackle I could care less. And if you were at the Glencliff game...thanks we needed the extra gate.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
