Henry Co. vs. Memphis East. Round 2

[SEC1rules]

East comes to Paris to battle the Patriots. I expect a great game. This is one of the best 2nd round matchups in the state. Thought? Predictions?

what does East run?  Spread, option read, or power football.  Sounds like potential a great match up

Sounds like they are a power team, probably going to try and run it down our throats. But at the same time, they have been very different of late than they were the first part of the season. So which team will be here this Friday? Don't know. What I do know is that the Patriots made a huge stride forward last night in the first round. Looking for another great performance next week...

Memphis East has beaten both Whitehaven and Ridgeway. That deserves a wow! This will be the Patriots toughest test to date.

And their two losses were very close games, including a 7-6 slugfest against White Station. HC will have its hands full. Really glad we have home field on our side for this one.

I believe that last night we got  our mojo back!!!

Really anxious to see what Memphis East brings to the table. HC should be much closer to healthy this week too. Memphis East always has some atheletes, but at what positions this year? Anybody have the low down on them yet? Maybe kwc or BHS can add some commentary to this thread...

I watched the highlights from when they played Ridgeway and they have a fast running back that is a big play threat. They also have a fullback that can run with power. Every time their Qb dropped back on the video he was sacked so I could not tell what kind of arm he had. Their line looked decent sized but not as big as Ridgeway's. They had a long kick return too so special teams need to step up.

Henry Co by a lot. Hope I am wrong

I think a few of Memphis East's games can be found on tssaanetwork.com if I recall correctly.

I will have to make it out to this one.....

I can't speak too much on how Memphis East looks now but they have a good Head Coach and obviously a super solid defense (they held Whitehaven to 10 points).

 

I think they'll be competitive early on but the Home field advantage along with lack of Depth will be too much at the end. I think Henry Co. will be moving on. Over/under 28 points. I think it'll be a low scoring affair.
