Montgomery Central Vs Kenwood

[IndianNation73]

This week Montgomery Central hosts new division opponent, and fellow Montgomery County native, Kenwood Friday night at 7:00 pm.

 

Montgomery Central (4-0) is coming of a very emotional win over big rival, Clarksville Academy, where the game was decided on an interception with 11.1 seconds remaining on the game clock. One of the hardest fought games I’ve seen in a long time, while holding a very impressive tribute to our nation’s military men and women.

 

Kenwood (1-3) is on a three game losing streak after defeating West Creek in week one. Since them they seem to have had trouble getting their momentum going and have been on the downhill slide, as it were.

 

MCHS started off sloppy last week, but fought hard to come up with a W last week. The defense is fired up and ready to play, and the offense seems to be drawing on their experience to get them this far.  They have the size advantage up front again this week, which will them out over the course of the game. The depth at the skills positions also will help them in keeping up their energy going into late moments of the game.

 

Kenwood’s line seems to be a little smaller and less athletic than MCHS, but their backfield and skills positions make up for that with their athleticism. Their offense rests on the shoulders of a couple play makers, which one would assume would make them the targets of most coaching perspectives. Nearly all of their skills players play both sides of the ball, leaving them potentially tired in the fourth, which is where this game may fall to.

 

Going into the second round of division games this week, MCHS must come out with their heads on right and play smart against this quick athletic team in order to pull this one out.  Kenwood’s going to be hungry after their recent games have fallen short of the mark, which is going to make them a dangerous opponent. They will be looking to knock off the undefeated Indians, in what could possibly be one of the most important games so far this season

 

If MCHS comes to play like I have seen them in the past few games, I will take them winning 21-7.

 

Good luck to both teams,

Here is to a safe and healthy game on both sides of the ball.

If Kenwood isn't healthy Central will run them out of the stadium. I'm thinking Central by a few tds.

Sorry for the typos and grammatical errors, I was in a bit of a rush.

 

I think Central is the more disciplined and bigger team going into this one, but Kenwood’s speed and athleticism is something that could prove to be troublesome if the Indians don’t come out ready to play.

 

If they can contain the Knights’ playmakers then it should go for the W, but if not it could prove to be a long night on the hill.

 

I’m still going with a 3-1 win, as I’m betting on the Indians to be prepared.

Central 21-7.

What happened? I really thought central wouldve had this game.

Hey Rusty, Sorry it took so long to respond. Central very well could have had this game, but key mistakes at crucial moments, and missed opportunities cost them.

 

They outplayed Kenwood most of the night, but penalties killed them in the final stretch of the game.With around 2 minutes to go Central tagged a roughing the kicker and a personal foul, giving Kenwood control of the final minutes of the game.

 

This paired with some miscues on both sides of the ball led Central's first loss of the season.
