This is always a big rivalry game no matter the records. Jo Byrns is coming off a close loss to WHH. Clarksville Academy is coming off a big homecoming win over Harpeth. I don't know what to expect from the RedDevils this year. I have not seen them in person. I have heard and read that they have been hot and cold at time. That there defense is good but have difficulty scoring?????. CA has had a balanced attack for the most part the past 4 games. The defense has also played pretty good. I expect this game to be a battle. A old-fashion wrestling match. The winner of this game will be inline for one of the two top spots in the District. Of course NCS will have something to say about who this district champion is. Still a lot of football to be played. Go Cougars.

The Jo Byrns fans are laying low.

Very low. You have to go back to at least '04 to see when JB last had a 3 game losing streak. This team is going to have to learn how to put a complete game together and win together. I thought they had plenty of chances to win against WHH, but never took advantage of opportunities. CA is going to be riding on the high of a big win last week and will have all the confidence in the world at home on the river bank. JB needs to play to General Neyland's Maxims...and the first 3 maxims are a good place to start.

I had took look it up! I think Clarksville Academy will use this instead!

 

General Neyland Maxims

 

1. The team that makes the fewest mistakes will win.

 

2. Play for and make the breaks and when one comes your way - SCORE.

 

3. If at first the game - or the breaks - go against you, don't let up... put on more steam.

 

4. Protect our kickers, our QB, our lead and our ball game.

 

5. Ball, oskie, cover, block, cut and slice, pursue and gang tackle... for this is the WINNING EDGE.

 

6. Press the kicking game. Here is where the breaks are made.

 

7. Carry the fight to our opponent and keep it there for 60 minutes.

Good win for the Cougars. Anytime you beat the Red Devils its a good win. No matter what it is always a competitive game. JB capatialized on two costly CA turnovers (interceptions). JB defensive front gave the Cougars issues most of the night. CA will have to fix some defensive issues before the next game.

 

I remember earlier in the season some said that NCS and JB had "locks" on the two top spots in the district. I strongly disagreed. Friday night sealed the deal. The Cougars have one of the two top spots locked up. We still have to play Cheatham County, Houston County and the the "Show-down" with NCS. CA will not take the games with Cheatham and Houston County for granted. I expect these team to bring it.

    • Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen. 
    • I know the RB from OR he’s fast and has good hands. Is good on special teams also. Didn’t want to play defense over to the Ridge.
    • Lieutenant Flip flops is on a roll. #1 recruiter in Anderson Co, fo-sho.
    • Has there been any effort to contact college coaches other than Trevecca? 
    • 5star put out and article about the QB competition for Clinton like they have 9 other schools. They listed a QB that was previously on Powell’s roster last year. He was the Frosh that could throw great wearing number 5. He was not mentioned as a transfer.  HC was quoted in getting two running back transfers one being from OR that has been mentioned on these boards as well as another from TKA.  I had heard about these and more transfers. It is impressive that Clinton is able to steal away from the recruiter at Powell.  I wonder if the issue with the principal will change that or open the gates even more.
