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.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
