This is a rivalry of streaks. Starting in the 80's, Webb had a 14 game winning streak. Then in the early 2000's, Catholic broke the streak and started one of their own for 7 straight until 2009 when Webb beat Catholic 21-10. Since then, it has been very lopsided in Webb's favor. Catholic has been down the past 5 years and Webb has had some of their stronger teams. This year it has really evened back out. Besides maybe two games in the past 12 years, this game has always been very close, and I see it being that way Thursday night. I don't see either team being able to stop the other. Catholic's pass offense will give Webb trouble, and Catholic will have a tough time stopping the Wing T with Beeler running the show and Georgia Tech commit Brant Mitchell lined up in the backfield. It is going to be a very physical game. Just like most of the time, all of Webb's players will be going both ways. We will see if the Spartans can last for 4 quarters. I have not seen Catholic play in person so it is hard to make a prediction. They haven't really been tested all year. Webb starting out their season with Maryville and Baylor will really help Webb in this game. No way Catholic will be as physical or overall better than either one of those teams. It is going to be a great High School atmosphere for one of the best rivalries in the state.

No. I am guessing he is the freshman transfer from Bearden. He is the back up. Brock Beeler is the starter at QB. 

I was wondering, because the paper on Saturday said that Green had 135 passing yards.  I agree with you, I think it'll be a very close game, much different than last year when Catholic was missing a lot of starters due to injuries.  I was at Catholic's practice on Sunday and I was surprised at how physical it was.  This time of year coaches don't hit as much but I'm sure the coaching staff is anticipating and preparing for a physical game.  It's strange that this rivalry is about streaks.

Man I am so excited for this game! Catholic looks GOOD. Makes me nervous as a former Webb player but I seriously doubt this will be a blow out folks. In either direction.

 

Webb has played their toughest two games:

 

Maryville 

Baylor 

 

Catholic has yet to.  Their toughest opponents are coming up however.

 

Webb

Alcoa

 

Fulton- Somewhere in the playoffs.

 

Should be a good one!

I have to agree with you, it will be a contrast of different styles but I don't see a blow out. It'll be close. Saw some video of Webb and their offensive line is impressive. Very physical team with a lot of seniors who are use to winning. Catholic is still young and has some players new to this rivalry. If intensity can't be matched ouch. Edited by QSouth89

    • Hmmmmm……doe dee doe doe….i drove the lawnmower down to practice today…….hmmmm…… we got some new faces………. One can run faster than my lawnmower in fifth gear…… a few will be disappointed come November that they jumped ship and went down to that sewage facility……. You can bet the lawnmower on that. 
    • I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.
    • Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think. 
    • “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker. 
    • Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job.
