MrWatungas Posted November 1, 2015 Report Share Posted November 1, 2015 (edited) Marion/Boyd/Tyner has speed and backup speed.I'm aware, no bueno for us Forrest fans. The game will be decided by a handful of big plays (returns, breakaway runs, etc.) how legitimate is their speed?

TynerRamFan Posted November 1, 2015 Report Share Posted November 1, 2015 I'm aware, no bueno for us Forrest fans. The game will be decided by a handful of big plays (returns, breakaway runs, etc.) how legitimate is their speed? It's legit. Believe me not only speed but power. You won't see so much in speed with Bledsoe but from Round 2 going forward will be a challenge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWatungas Posted November 1, 2015 Report Share Posted November 1, 2015 The last time Forrest had legitimate speed was in 2009, team went 9-1 and still couldn't match the 6-4 Marion team's speed. Must be something in the water in East Tennessee. There's speed in middle TN, but 90% of it resides in Rutherford and Williamson County.

TheTruthPrevails Posted November 1, 2015 Report Share Posted November 1, 2015 Marion doesn't have burner speed, but several kids that run probably 4.6-4.8. Maybe four or five kids. I understand that Forrest likes to stack the box and put nine guys in there. That's great for stopping the run unless the backs get a crease. Also better have some good size corners if they are gonna be on an island as mc can throw three receivers that are 6'3 or better. I look for a good game in the second round, but we have to get by westmoreland first. I have a feeling we won't beat them as bad as Watertown did. Seems like they had a bunch of turnovers. Anyone have any stats from that game? I know Watertown was winning 12-0 in the second? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TynerRamFan Posted November 1, 2015 Report Share Posted November 1, 2015 Marion County will mercy rule Westmoreland. Westmoreland won't score on their starting defense. Then Marion County will go to Chapel Hill and beat Forrest by at least 28 points. Boyd Buchanan will mercy Eagleville then take on a Tyner team that's a top 10 team after Tyner has soundly beaten Watertown. That's my prediction. That's pretty bold, Bassy. You don't figure any "intangible's will make a difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omniscience Posted November 1, 2015 Report Share Posted November 1, 2015 Marion will run 5-6 backs at you that can all run, add in the QB that has returned and the offense is almost unstoppable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
