Maryville at Farragut

[Lost Old Dad]

Reguardless how this one plays out, there will be folks making comparisons all over the state after it is over.

 

Example, well our team beat so and so by X amount so that means we would beat Y by so much.

 

Good luck to both teams.

Farragut has 2 coaches who were former Maryville players...David Sweetland & Kyle Harris. Both are great young men and I'm sure are excellent coaches. Kyle's youngest brother Cody (senior) plays safety/receiver for Maryville,as did Kirk and Kyle. Next year will be strange without a Harris on the field. David Sweetland did coach 1, maybe 2 years and is remembered by all the Maryville faithful for his playing days. He was a lot of fun to watch! Good luck to both young men.

This Alcoa fan predicts a 35 to 28 win for the Maryville rebels. Good luck to both teams!

From all indication of what I have read/seen, this should be a shoot-out since Maryville has struggled greatly at times to stop the run and Farragut (supposedly) has trouble stopping the pass.

 

That probably means we're looking at a 7-6 final score.

 

Lost ol' Dad - You are correct. Luckily Murvul got the master at setting those lines of scores. If you have any questions on who should beat who by how much, look no further than ol' Starz himself. (I hear he's who the Fat Jack calls for his insider info.)

Not much trash talk. What little I see (from the murvul folks) bodes well for Farragut.

Farragut no doubt the favorite. Deep run playoff team last year and most all of their skill people back. Hope we can put a good, complete game together and hold our own.

yes farragut has had trouble stopping the pass early in games but the defense normally stiffens up in the 2nd half...also expect farragut's fans to make a difference they're loud, proud, and very obnoxious the bus has to pass where the seniors tailgate so its fun to see some of the players reactions to it..but itll be exciting

[MHS82]

I was crunching some numbers for curiousity's sake....not sure what this means other than it will be a good game. Against common opponents this year (West, OR, heritage, bearden, and catholic), Maryville scored 160 pts and Farragut scored 162. Maryville allowed 45 pts and Farragut allowed 54. I think the biggest conclusion is I have too much time on my hands.

This game is for the District Championship so i expect both teams to play very well. I cant wait for Friday to get here!

 

Maryville fans what is the size of you O and D lines? Seems Farragut had trouble with the HUGE O-Line of Riverdale.

Two great staffs and teams. This should be a classic. Farragut will have to be prepared for the famous GQ trick plays that they practice every single day in practice. When they pull one out, it works. I agree that the key will be if MHS can stop Purty, Van Dyne, and Hudson on the ground. FHS offense like MHS is very balanced, but the FHS running game is very powerful. Purty gets stronger as the game goes on. This will be an awesome game.

 

Maryville fans, not much seating on the visitor side at FHS, especially if you bring the band, but there is room for overflow on the Farragut side because it is huge.

maryville has a typical maryville line, not big but very quick, and sound, look for purty to have a big game.
