Farragut at Knoxville West

[WestHigh4Life]

Big District Game...I think Farragut is a great team with a lot of size and a great backfield. West is a very fast and talented team. I think this will be the game of the week hands down.

 

I have West winning 24-21.

 

Go Rebels!

West is due to beat Farragut. They didn't even beat them last year (although they didn't really get going till after the Farragut game last year). Great move by the West coaching staff to move Francis to starting QB. Chait is a hard nosed guy that is good at lots of things. I believe he will help the team a lot more now that he can be used like he was last year. Passing game looked good last nite so.....

West 31

Farragut 21

Just because they are due, doesn't mean they will win. Kentucky has been due to beat Tennessee for the last 26 years. I agree that West is a completely different team with Francis at QB, once he cam in the Maryville game they moved the ball at will against them. The big TE could do well in this game also. BUT, if Farragut's Defense(LBs and DL) continue to play at the level they have all season, I don't see West being able to do much. I think Farragut pulls this one out in a hard fought game. I also look for Farragut to throw it a bit more than they did last week(5 times). I heard that #34 will be back so that will be big for the Admirals.

I know that but I just feel like West is ready for this game now. Especially since it's the halfway point in the season (for West).

That is great news! He is a tough kid, and an excellent player. I am really happy for him, especially with it being his senior year.

I don't know for sure, and I have heard some other rumblings from people saying he may not be back .I guess we will have to wait and see.

#34 had a full tear of either the ACL or MCL

I heard the same thing after I posted on Monday, but wanted to confirm it before posting on here. Sad to see that for the kid, especially with it being his senior year and everything. I look for Billy Williams to play a lot more.

I truly hate to hear that. Madison Brown has been an integral part of the Farragut team since his sophomore year.

 

As far as the team goes, #18 Jetton seems to me a likely candidate to get some snaps at TE. He has good size and speed. More importantly, judging by his interceptions, Jetton seems to have good hands. Finding someone who can fill that “go-to guy†role, especially over the middle, will be key. Madison Brown was very reliable getting open and catching the football, so his shoes will be extremely difficult to fill.

This will be a close game with King kicking a field goal in the last minute giving Farragut a 20-17 win.
