Smyrna vs Blackman

[milo118]

Has to find a way to stop the run? Really? Smyrna has one of the better defenses around. Please name one school that gave them problems the whole game. And don't include the 2nd team after the game was out of hand. There has not been one team who ran the ball consistently the whole game.

Exactly! The only trouble we have had was the first series against LaVergne. And mid way through the Siegel game. Only gave up 48 total yards against Siegel in the second half. I have confidence that we can figure it out.

Agree Smyrna D is the real deal - they gave Indy all sorts of fits

Team with the least turnovers/penalties will celebrate Friday at approximately 9:30

Yeah I am thinking with my heart, but that is the one thing you can never truly account for. I think this game friday will be a special one. Good luck Blaze and here is hoping both teams stay healthy

I can't blame you for picking your team. Heck during our 1-9 season I was on here picking my Bulldogs to win every game as if the beating the previous Friday night never happened. Sending back those wishes of an injury free game. Hope both teams stay healthy.

I would like to say I knew all along... but that would be a lie...I do know the demeanor was different this week. Felt a little like the old Blackman.believe me ... Congrats on a big win ...H U G E .... I mean H U G E!!!!!!! (In a bad Donald Trump voice over)

Tough loss. Tale of two different teams for the Bulldogs. The second half team is the team that has to play a full game. Got too far behind the eight ball and gave Blackman to many chances. The fumble on the 1 yard line was a killer but not at all the reason we lost. Untimely penalties didn't help either. I am proud of the effort in the second half. Can't speak much on the first half. I didn't get there until half way through the second quarter. Congrats Blaze. Huge win. But I can't help feel the same way about this loss as I did with the Indy loss. We should have won this game. But should a, could a, would a. Bottom line is we didn't. Time to get back to work. The schedule isn't any easier the rest of the way. But I have confidence we will be ready. Go Dawgs!!!

Yes we caught some lucky breaks for sure... but we played hard and our defense showed up in the second half. We have had the tale of two halves plague us this year as well... Smyrna is still a young team and will be a solid program. Your Dawgs are good...and I believe they will mak eplenty of noise throughout the playoffs.
