Powell vs Oak ridge

[SweetScience]

Ok guys, oak ridge looked pretty good against central, but how good was central to begin with? Powell has been playing light out lately, but it looks like fulton is not the team everyone thought they were, and halls? well, that goes without saying, with all due respect to halls there just not very good... so, who takes it at the "ship" this year?

If Oak Ridge can stop the Powell running game, Oak Ridge will win. If they can't, look for Powell to pull off the upset. Powell has a pretty good team. My prediction: Oak Ride wins 28-24 in a close one.

What is really strange is that in spite of the fact that these two schools are only about 12 miles apart as the crow flies, this will be Powell's first trip ever to Oak Ridge to play a varsity football game. Last year's win at Powell by Oak Ridge was the first time the two had ever even played in varsity football.

 

The two schools, of course, have been in the same district for a while now in other sports and have a very good rivalry, especially in girls and boys basketball. There have been some classic games played between the two in both. It's odd that they had never played in football before last year when the football re-classification/re-districting took effect.

This will be a good tough game! I think the powell panthers keep rolling and beat oak ridge.. powell running game is going to get it done. Think its going to be close but powell wins 28 20.

True, HTV. But I'm glad we are playing each other. Last year, the Powell faithful provided a great game-night atmosphere. With this being out home opener, it should be a great night for football this year as well.

 

As far as the outcome of the game, I think Powell would have to be viewed as the favorite as they are playing very well. We are in similar shape as you guys were last year. We start a lot of young guys. I just hope we come out with the same intensity as we did against Central. Should be a close game.

Powell 34 - OR 14

Powell has the luxury of giving the ball to one of the top Jrs. in the state...Dyshawn Mobley. Matt Lowe has built a very good program at Powell.....Oak Ridge IMO doesnt have the horse to keep up with Powell.

 

35-14 Powell...

With this being Oak Ridge's first home game of the season, i believe they will come out FIRED UP! If OR can weather the storm early, they have a very good chance of pulling this one out. Powell looks very impressive to this point and have alot of confidence.

 

I say.... Powell 35 Oak Ridge 21
