Tullahoma @ Franklin Co.

On paper, it looks like Tullahoma should win, but this is a big rival game in Winchester and the Rebels had a week off to prepare for the Wildcats. Franklin Co has a great running game and both teams need a win to have a chance to finish in one of the top two spots in the final District 8AAA standings. Both teams are 1-1 in district play. Franklin Co got a big district win over Lawrence Co in their last game 42-14 and Tullahoma beat Chatt Tyner last Friday night 24-14 in the Cats homecoming game. The early forecast is for good weather this Friday night. Its always a tough physical game. If you can't attend, the game will be broadcast live on 101.5 FM with Scott Shasteen and myself. You can also listen on www.fantasyradio.com or local Charter tv channel 6. I anticipate a huge crowd for this annual showdown of neighboring counties.

I'll post to do my best to represent my Rebels.

 

 

I am genuinely excited for this game, and think it will be closer than the last few years. The obvious keys seem to be:

 

THS passing vs. FC defense

FC run game vs. THS front 7 (or front 9)

 

and I think the wildcard will be how long can FCHS keep it close. They need to use their offense to keep the THS QB off the field, and get a push upfront. FCHS per their system, and their mentality, are a good front running team. If THS can get an early lead, and show offensive balance, this one will not be close.

 

Here's to a good game, great weather, and the best result for the Rebels. I hope Coach Carr and that sideline will show some intensity and get fired up. If we see the usual timidness, we will get hit in the mouth and roll over.

 

Safe travel to everyone, and have a great evening! Go Rebels!

It was another classic battle between the Tullahoma Wildcats and the Franklin Co Rebels. Tullahoma won in the 2nd overtime 31-30. Franklin Co went for the 2pt conversion and the win, but came up inches short and the Cats survived in the 2nd overtime. Personally, I felt more relieved than happy with the victory. Players from both teams put it on the line tonite and Coach Olive said after the game that he would have gone for 2 and the win if Tullahoma had been in the same situation. It's a very tough loss for the Rebels who led the entire game until the 2nd overtime. I have to give Tullahoma credit for a gutty performance and hanging tough against an inspired Franklin Co team. Its just unbelievable the way the Cats have won the last three times they played the Rebels in Winchester. Hats off to both teams Friday night in a game neither team deserved to lose.

    • The yearning for enlightenment has been an incessant companion, fueling an insatiable thirst for knowledge and understanding. Given your extensive coverage of football and the apparent breadth of your expertise, I am inclined to seek your esteemed opinion on the matter: who, in your estimation, emerges as the favored candidate? Furthermore, since the mantle of head coach has been vacated, upon whom would you bestow the mantle of leadership?
    • Shoulders dad graduated for TC, and Kyle began his coaching career early on at TC although he wasn't there long. Shoulders would be a homerun, but don't see him leaving Macon anytime soon.

    • Perhaps it is within the realm of possibility that the comprehension of my discourse, both by yourself and others, may be circumscribed by the boundaries of intellectual acumen. Might one contemplate this notion from such a perspective? Allow me to clarify that my intent does not lean towards disparagement, save for instances where provocation is directed towards myself or the esteemed troupe of the Trousdale County Yellow Jackets who proudly find domicile upon the hallowed grounds of CREEKBANK. In contemplation of the candidates under discussion, it is conjectured that individuals such as Gregory, Woodmore, Vetetoe, Eden, Hackett, and Cothron may emerge as contenders. Regrettably, it is deemed improbable that Shoulders shall express interest in this pursuit. Speculation arises regarding the potential candidacy of BJ West, albeit the implications of familial ties with Lafayette introduce complexities to such a scenario. The enigma of Dr. Clint's deliberations looms large, fraught with the weight of a formidable decision yet to be made.
    • My kind sir, you seem to be lost within the time space continuum having traveled from the 16th Century or you aspire to hide your true intelligence by masking your language with that of the great playwright. You know good and well, your commentary takes your fellow comrades hours to decipher what you are really saying and most of them are likely left questioning whether you have insulted them or find them to be in your favor. I offer you some advice. In my travels through this area of the country, it is best to speak slow and with a twang and you don't annunciate  words to their fullest. Your points will be clear then!  Any names been mentioned around town as Actual Applicants to this job? Seen several post mentioning individuals, but I haven't heard of any of them except for Shoulders. Does he have ties to TC?  Have amy of the other names mentioned ever been in the HC position before?
