#6 Gallatin (9-3) @ #2 Beech (10-2) - 3rd Round

[trulyblessedquitcomplaining]

I'm watching closely (as Gallatin beat us in the first round) and I loved the fact they beat Henry Co...Just from what I've seen, this team has guts and determination....I like that in Friday night football!

 

ROLL EM' GREEN WAVE

[crackalack]

The game everyone has been looking forward to...except Beech's defense! (Remember Enriques Perry?!) Gallatin wins this one, hopefully on a dry field so no one complains, 27-21.

Yeah, I figure Beech will be a little more ready for perry in this game. He went for a couple hundred on them in the last game. It's really hard to contain him though.... Just when you think you have him stopped on the ground, he'll go and catch a couple touchdown passes. Still, I think Beech's defense is very much prepared for this one.

Its still a ways off, but weather.com is showing a much improved forecast for the upcoming week than it initially was late Friday night. There is no telling how many people could show up for this one if the weather cooperates. Its gonna be a barn burner

[GREENWAVEALLTHEWAY]

Yes .... Beech will be ready for the GREEN WAVE. But so will the GREEN WAVE be ready for BEECH. Hopefully no rain --- it should be a sin to play on that field in the rain. Playing as an Underdog is where the GREEN WAVE does it's best work.

I don't know too much about Beech, but as a Henry County fan and Alumni, i would have to say that the Green Wave was probably the best team that Henry County has played in a while! Gallatin did exactly what they had to do! Those kids have determination and i am pullin for Gallatin all the way! Any team that comes into Patriot Stadium and rolls Henry County like Gallatin did deserves respect from all of us Patriot fans.

so the Big Red faithful says:

 

GO GREEN WAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not asking this as a Beech fan, but as Sumner County football fan. How will either Beech/Gallatin stack up against Mitchell/Melrose? I don't know anything about either one of them.

You might check with Murphy Fair the Gu-Who of high school football or George Plastard on the memphis schools since they were so great on thier predictions the last few weeks...

Mitchell has a dual position player in Keiwon Malone who playes QB, TB, WR and returner who has committed to Saban and Alabama. They also have various other speedy players but Malone is the star.

 

Melrose has a lot of athletes as well but probably down in the star category from yrs past when they had Kindal Morehead or a Craig Cooper (current tailback for the Miami Hurricanes) but are very talented and will give Mitchell a good game, but I think Mitchell will win.

 

I'm pulling for Mitchell, while it isn't the best area of Memphis to visit, it certainly is a step above the Orange Mound area where Melrose is (I've been to a game at Melrose, not a good place to visit) so hopefully from a fans view Mitchell wins so that whomever wins the Gallatin/Beech match won't have to go to OM.

Thanks for the info. So is it already determined that whoever wins the Beech/Gallatin game will have to go to Memphis?
