scrappy1 Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Temple 89 Franklin 65 Franklin will not get beat by that much this season by anyone. They are too good, smart and have too much heart. I'm not saying they are unbeatable...ANY team is beatable on a given night but beating them by 24 will not happen.

MrTSSAA Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 It will be a somewhat close game... The first half should be very close... Temple has always been a very good team, with the fundamentals, athletes, and coaching to compete... I feel that Franklin will begin to pull away in the second half, but still should be a good game... 1st Quarter Franklin 18 Temple 16 2nd Quarter Franklin 38 Temple 32 3rd Quarter Franklin 52 Temple 44 4th Quarter Franklin 70 Temple 58 Franklin's big men will eventually lead to the fall of Temple... The good news is that Franklin is a 3A school and will probably make it to the Region semis or possibly the get put out early in the 3A state tournament... Temple will really gain from this game, and will this should prove to make them a stronger team come post season... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrappy1 Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Mr. Basketball http://www.commercialappeal.com/news/2008/...es-of-the-week/ Thanks for sharing but Buckner doesn't play for Temple so I'm not sure why this was added to a Franklin/Temple game post...

yomomma Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Mr. Basketball http://www.commercialappeal.com/news/2008/...es-of-the-week/ Thats it??? I wish I had the info. to post Sexton's 3 game weeks. You wouldnt be laughing then. He averaged 24 last year with 8 boards, 6 assists. Lets see. Addition means thats 84 points, 24 rebounds, and 18 asssists as a junior. Who posts 3 game week stats???? Manassas vs. Temple. If this game happens I hope Temple beats you 20, and that can happen!!!

bigbird Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Legend, I fear that you are headed for a great fall... /popcorneater.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":popcorneater:" border="0" alt="popcorneater.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbird Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 It will be a somewhat close game... The first half should be very close... I have read your post and found myself enjoying the predictions you have made but am somewhat puzzled as to the basis of your prognosticating? Your predictions are enjoyable because I can tell you do not know anything much at all about Temple, so I am assuming your basis is purely on what is known about Franklin. All I know about Franklin is what I have read on these threads. I can tell you, from what I know about Temple, that if Franklin does win, it will not be an easy win and they will walk off the court with a heart full of respect for a little old school from Chattanooga. If Temple wins, it will just be another oversized school that went down... /hungry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":hungry:" border="0" alt="hungry.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrTSSAA Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Manassas should have a cake walk until they face Humbolt or Temple... Single A districts 15 and 16 aren't very good despite having one of the better three teams in the state... Manassas will not have to play anyone until the substate... I personally think Manassas will win it all, and they should have last year... Ok... but this is a Temple vs. Franklin thread so lets get back to it...

dadoffour Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 All of Temple's starters play well. There is not a weak link and the players off the bench do a really good job, also. I cannot really figure out the comments from posters who say that Temple does not have any depth on the bench. There are at least four players off the bench who would be starters on most other teams in our region. Temple's defense is actually very good and tough. They never give up and never slow down on defense or offense. They keep going at it hard every minute of the game. Bigbird, You and I disagree about the quality of Temple's subs, and that's cool, we just have different opinions. But I haven't seen you posting any of Temple's weaknesses. What are they, in your opinion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillyFan Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 Temple 89 Franklin 65 Maybe 84-68 Franklin. Not a contest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
