If it weren't for Rush and Fullam that game shouldn't have been as close as it was last year at McCallie. Then EHS pummeled them at home in the playoffs.

 

I'm with Kwoodruff, BA is the only real test if this team stays healthy until the playoffs.

 

In order for the Tornadoes to pull this one out McCallie would have to have some kind of solution for Orleans and Richardson but I don't know what would be this year, especially if Lassing nor Bars could stop him at MBA.

 

McCallie is simply going to be outmatched I'll say 54-21 Ensworth.

What does McCallie's defensive line look like? Ensworth certainly has a good offensive line, but i think the EHS performance against MBA was a bit flattering. Not to put too fine a point on it, but MBA's defensive line is just not particularly good. They've been run on pretty consistently. And while Bars and Lassing are talented, if you let a good back through the line untouched play after play...well, it just doesn't lead to a very happy ending. Tacklers that Darkwa can't avoid, he seems to do a pretty good job of running over. I'm not sure i saw him fall backwards all night.

From what I saw last year, probably a little better than MBA's but not outstanding. I haven't seen them play this year but based on last years games I have no reason to believe that Orleans will not have another field day.

Ok, ladies and gents...I'm here with my eternal optimism firmly in place. The D-Line is looking good with lots of upperclassmen on board. The 0-Line is as strong as ever. Special teams are clicking. The team overall has come together very nicely. I believe that my Blue Tornado will be just fine and will be prepared for the competition at hand.

 

I would predict a very close contest. We must contain Orleans. I'm sure our coaches are preparing the young gentlemen to the max.

 

I would say the Blue by 3. Hope the trip down is uneventful and look for the crazy mom in the blue cowboy hat!

The only way to contain Darkwa is have the McCallie campus security handcuff him when he gets off the bus.

He ran over Oakland and MBA, don't think McCallie or any DII school can stop him. He runs behind the strong tackle, guard and tight end with a total weight of 830lbs. Once he gets in behind that wall he is hidden from LB's and the backs and once he gets free "give him 6".

He is a tough kid that came back and played in the 2nd half of the BA game last year after sitting out with an concussion in the 1st half. (Thanks to Ricky)

Only negative to EHS game is kicking. But right now they don't need a FG

 

EHS 42 (6 TD's, 5 TD's by #10)

McCallie 10

 

 

Sorry Bluemom, how well do you know the campus security guards? :blush:

This is coming from the same blue mom that thinks the year looks promising for big blue after a 3-0 start. What? Is that a joke? Look who McCallie has played. Their season, much like baylor's (except for bga game) starts this Thursday and Friday. Ensworth is ranked in the top 15 nationally in some poles. The only thing mccallie will win by 3 is the 4th quarter Ensworth jv game

    • Good ole Bradley Zulliger. He was a really good QB @ OR. Fun to watch. 
    • They should be pretty good in year two for Rang.  Replacing most of the offensive production losing Dozier, Hayward and Rembert , but they're are skill kids in place ready for their shot.  I know I say this every year, but the o line should show improvement after two years in Rang and Kevin Day's weight program.  I still would favor West over Plow and OR come November.  The Rebs will have to grow up a bunch between now and then, and will probably take some lumps along the way with that schedule.  But I predict come playoff time they will be ready.   One of their coaches half joked to me that they could go 5-5 regular season and win the state championship.  Ha ha.  
    • there will be a couple of teams,that could make some noise
    • Dyersburg may win back to back to back championships. They are going to be hands down the best 3A team. Plus their District/region/sectionals are not very good. They basically just have to make it to region out of a 5 team district that has a few decent teams. South Gibson will be okay but they graduate their best player and there is nobody in the region 7 or region 8 who is going to compete with them. 
    • I remember very well watching things change in the late 80's and yes it's all schools. Most people that are in charge today have any idea because they were raised and taught under this social experiment so they don't have a clue. Anyone that does see the truth for what it is usually try and hide it by blending in so that the School Gestapo doesn't round them up and take them to the Fuhrer ( kindly putting it ). Yes it is all schools not just Maryville. This train ride is not headed in a good direction and if the public had seen a movie of what's happening now back in 1980 everyone would have been headed home afterwards to change underware.
