Centennial @ Gallatin

[RedVenom15]

Gallatin 31 - Centennial 17

[BT Mafia]

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.

This one is getting alot of attention, and in my opinion, is one of the more interesting matchups around the state in 5-A this week. I hope Centennial brings a following like they did in the '04 season when they came to Gallatin. Should be an electrifying atmosphere!

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

Hasn't Gallatin only beaten two? /huh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":huh:" border="0" alt="huh.gif" />

 

Doesn't matter, Gallatin will handle this epic team speed and get the W.

Interesting stat: Both teams are 0-0 right now.

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

Which game of Gallatin's did you see?

 

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.
