Independence Eagles @ Hillsboro Boros

[pressman]

I disagree that Henry County walks to the state championship. They are the team to beat, but Hendersonville and Gallatin can more than hold their own...Hendersonville with a win over Riverdale and Gallatin has been impressive the most in its two losses (MJ/Brentwood)...these two can challenge.

I would agree with you that Gallatin, Hendersonville, and maybe Beech would be the best options out of Middle TN to topple Henry County in the playoffs this season.

Getting back to District 11, Ravenwood has the slightess chance of getting to the playoffs, and that would have to start tomorrow against Franklin, which i think they could actually give the Rebels a run for their money if Rebels are just goofing off. But the only thing left is to see who ends up where. Its obvisous that Brentwood will finish 1st (or maybe 2nd) but Franklin and Indy are fighting for either 2nd placeor wildcard.

Burros will have tough going against Independence. Independence by 13

Just got back from the game. We lost 28-25!!!! We was leading by 5 in the 4th Q with like 1 min remaining and our D couldn't hold their QB, then with 3.3 secs left in the 4th our QB (# 11) did a good hail mary, one of our players caught it and he forgot to get out of bounds

 

On a side know anyone know why Greg was playing Defense in the 4th?

Once again the defense could not get it done...to small to play with the big boys. We have big guys on the team. Why don't you play them coach? Offense looked much better.

Wow, what a disaster that almost was for the IHS football team a game that prob wouldve costed them any shot of getting into the playoffs too! But they finally played good those couple minutes in the 4th quarter with a comeback win down 11 with around 4 min left! What a game, Indy luckily survived against hillsboro.

Still think indy defense really needs some help and didnt look good at all tonight and hilisboro QB killed them.

 

Also whoever was doing the clock did a reallly really poor job i dont know who it was but that was ridiculous! Congrats to INDY way to pull off that close one! Heckmen stepped up in the final 2 drives when he needed to and looked good. And defense had a huge 3 and out to give them the ball back with time to win the game.

One thing I will say about Indy this year is that they keep fighting and don't give up. Hillsboro played a very good game and the QB (#11) was awesome. Indy had no answer for his speed. He reminds me of the way Vince Young was in college. He even throws the ball sidearm. He has a good strong arm. Defensively they couldn't stop Indy when it mattered. To answer the question about who runs the clock..one of the game officials on the sideline operates the clock. I will hand it to the Burros, they gave it everything they had and Indy was fortunate to pull out the victory. Time to get ready for an undefeated Columbia team this Friday.

congrats to INDY on a good win - I agree with some that stated the INDY D still needs to find itself-

I think it will be a shootout with Columbia, and thier running game of CHS will run wild, but think INDY will win 36-33....

Maybe the Janitors should be the Coaches?

[HillsboroBurros123]

true...the janitors probably know more about football then the coach!
