This one should be a good game. To wet everyone's appetite, here are the highlights from their last meeting...

 

First Half Highlights

 

Second Half & Overtime Highlights

 

 

 

Wasn't at this game due to work. And from what i can see there were not too many highlights. From what i here it was riddle with turnovers from both teams. So that adds to the mystery of how these two teams really match up. If the Bulldogs expect to win this one we can't put the ball on the ground like we did in the first meeting. Looks like the weather is going to be decent. Go Dawgs!!!

Smyrna is a very good football team. They are as talented as anyone in the state. I can assure you of that. Franklin is a good playoff team though with a dangerous quarterback so you never know. I'm sure it will be a great atmosphere at Franklin Friday night. If Franklin comes to play defensively and the Quarterback has a good game and they don't turn it over look for a tight game as once before. Also, Smryna is running the football way more effectively than they were earlier in the season.

To all the Bulldogs out there.....don't forget that Franklin was the one that booted Oakland last year in the first round. One game at a time. Rutherford Co needs to advance!

 

 

 

I can assure you that no player, coach, teacher, fan or anyone who can say the name Franklin is looking past this team. The focus is 110% on the Rebels this week.

I'm sure to have high blood pressure after this game... I just hope the Rebs dont go to overtime or im likely to have a heart attack.... no turnovers and offensive production in the red zone is what we need, and for the love of god CHS Team Player and all you other haters start posting some fuel for our fire! Smyrnas fans are too respectable (no disrespect to them, their district is used to high school football greatness)

The focus is most certainly on the rebels. One game at a time now Bulldogs. We were lucky to come out on top the first time we went to Franklin. we had way too many turnovers. If we hold on to the ball this time I like our chances though. :thumb:

Im sure both teams feel as if they hold on to the ball a little better in this game that they will win. The last affair was one of the most physical, hard hitting high school games that I have ever witnessed, which may have had something to do with all those turnovers. Not enough credit being given to either defense for that ball game IMO. Smyrna is a very well coached team that has some outstanding football players and plenty of speed to burn. The Franklin Rebels will have to contain those big play weapons that Smyrna has all over the field to come out on top in this one.Smyrna will have to play disciplined football and limit their mistakes. QB play will be the key for the Bulldogs in this game. Turnovers will also be a key. Whichever teams limits their turnover mistakes I think will come out on top. I would not be surprised to see the winner of this game advance out of this Quad Personally. Im looking forward to attending this game as im sure that many others on this board are anxious to get this one underway already. Is it Friday yet??

    • I believe that was last year. I was interested in the Jones vs Baker comment, so I went back and looked at GC. I am not a fan of either nor am I a baseball guru. This looks like to me the duel was not close and if the errors would not have been made Eagleville would have won. I assume you are a little biased. I do think your mph for Jeffcoat and Baker must be from last year.  Baker-85 pitches 67 strikes. 5.2 innings, 5H, 1BB, 0ER and 7K's. 3 errors  Jones- 78 pitches 37 strikes. 4 innings, 2H, 5BB, 0ER and 1K. 1 error   Adams and the UH kid are really good as well. What about South Pitt and Oakdale? I heard they have some good ones. 
    • I hate this for all the kids in the program and fans alike. I can't recall of anything like this before in my lifetime but I'm sure it isn't a first. After criminal investigations are complete and the TSSAA looks into this the program it will be facing Nuclear Winter for some time to come. It's always the innocent left behind that end up paying the price for something someone else has done. I'm sure the transfer portal will be very active in Clinton over the summer months. How could you find a good coach worth his salt that would take on a situation like this not knowing what will happen. 
    • I’ve seen Jeffcoat in person twice and he was 84-87 both times and the one time I saw Baker he was low 80’s, he actually got out dueled by Jones from ER in that outing.
