Munford vs. Hardin Co.

[MunfordTiger]

I assume you mean the week after Hardin? Wasn't sure if you were jumping to the week after Millington or not. It will be hard to say when it comes to teenagers and how they react to the previous week. This team understands that they may not be the MOST talented on the field but I think they will certainly play hard. Millington is loaded (yea, I know they lost twice but those two were terrific teams) and so Munford would have to play above their heads with some help (turnovers, penalties, etc...) to typically win this game.

 

The real question is how will Millington react if they have problems with Bartlett? Shouldn't happen but that would be a blow to the confidence. I still believe Millington is the best team but losing 3 or barely getting by a team that was beat by Brighton might be an issue for them.

 

But for now the real focus is Hardin, you can start the thread next week for that game.

Can't you guys see what MarkH is doing. He is trying to get Munford's mind off of HC and on to millington. Lets go cougar fans, get you heads back to where they belong, on this week's game, a district game, against HARDIN CO. There will be plenty of time to talk about millington after we win this game. Coach Saunders will have the boys ready to play and I expect the cougars to show us how good they actually can be by getting rid of all the mistakes and putting the ball in the endzone when they have the chance. If the cougars play mistake free football I don't think HC will ever really be in the game because they won't be able to move the ball against the "stone wall" defense that Munford has become. I pick Munford by two touchdowns, but it could end up being more.

Wow...by 2 tds! Be content with 1 point and move to 3-0. This week will tell you and us a little bit more about what we will see the following week. I agree...Keep your focus on HC. You'll have plenty of time to think about the Trojans.

Blacksox, I am not doing anything. I just raised the point that if Munford WAS looking ahead to Millington then Hardin Co might just smack them in the mouth but then again they might get smacked in the mouth anyway.

 

All things being equal and no disrespect to the Hardin Co. team and fans, I would rather Munford win the game and come down to Millington next week 3-0 full of confidence. It would make for a much more interesting football game. Nevertheless, good luck to both teams this Friday.

[blacksox8]

Ok MarkH. The thread started heading in a direction that I didn't think it needed too, but if that was not your intent, then I apologize for the accusation.

 

Where getting close Munford fans, just one more day before Friday night in Munford, I can’t think of any place that I would rather be. The atmosphere at Cougar stadium was electric last week, and I’m looking forward to more of the same this week.

To clarify...Mark H was speaking of the week AFTER Millington. How will you fare after a very physical football game against Millington? ..is what he was asking. Correct me if I read this wrong.

Less than 24 hours untils game time. First District game for Cougars. Look for a win.

I agree that Hardin is the only focus for Munford this week. Tonight could be messy from the weather side so turnovers become bigger. Hopefully the Cougars can keep the running attack going and mix in the big plays passing as needed.

 

Time to win and push for the playoffs, everything else is secondary.

[MarkH]

I wasn't there but I have seen the numbers. What happened Munford fans?

[utfan2]

I'll tell you what happen. Munford got in ran down there throat and couldn't get anything going on offense. Munford had a kick-off return and one drive and thats it. HC had this game from the first snap, and like I said HC would win if they came to play

[cougarnation09]

There were a few questionable calls. There was a play where Munford threw a fade to the endzone and the corner for Hardin had Munford's reciever by the back of his jersey when he went up for the ball. Happened a couple times last night. Munford's offense didn't come to play and that is what lost them the game
