1980 if you are referring to that post where I was wishing LC good luck,  then that's what I was doing.  Wishing a former team good luck.  

Now as to your question about why I think UC will beat the Cards let me flip it back to you.  What makes you think we won't beat Mayfield?  Your tradition is a great one and you have my utmost respect.  Well we have a great tradition as well and we have a reputation of being very physical and competitive.  We played a lot of cupcake teams over the last few years but we have also played some very good teams and we are way ahead in the win category.  So let me sum it up for you.  My Tornadoes will keep you out of the endzone by keeping the ball for long periods of time and we will force you to have to score quickly.  In doing this I believe it creates an atmosphere for mistakes.  If our defense can get 2 stops and a turnover or two I think we win. That's all I have to say about that.

Ok well you raise some good points BUT my friend you fail to realize what we like to do and that is play physically no huddles and score fast so mistakes on that level will not happen or be very few now stopping our drives that happens to the best of teams so me personally well I'm not worried about that what concerns me is the fact no disrespect is it has been proven that if does like to control the clock which leads me to believe that either you don't trust the defense or the offense so either that is a strategy uc uses to win games or to stop a running clock being put on them. So running the ball as many different was as if can and they do it very well will not win the game this time uc will have to pass the ball which they don't very much to be the type of quality team to beat the cards but I will inform you that that is a hard task to do also but can be done so again my friend no disrespect I love my cards as you your tornados I'm just trying to figure why you and all other uc fans think you will win cause everybody I ask that I know from and in uc just tells me tn football is better and that proves nothing to me until my cards have a losing record to tn teams

Tn football is better of course.  Tn has winning record in the tenn/ken all star hs game (have won 2o of 33 games).   Of course, no contest with UT vs uk football. Can't compare NFL cause y'all don't have one.

That is the recipe.

But, if UC can't move the ball as well as they expect, I see a long night if Mayfield was to jump out on them. I believe Mayfield has the capability to come back from a couple of scores while I'm not as sure about that with UC.

You said Tn football, you did not specify this particular high school series.

Okay first of all 1980, it sounds to me like you have already counted UC out you find it insulting to have anyone say that any team could beat your Cards.  Well I think UC will beat Mayfield.  Get this .......we are a really good football team.  We are very physical.  We will not be in awe of your team.  I'm certain the boys who will be on the field on the 18th have played better.  Yeah I said that.  Maybe the teams you have been used to playing have shied away from saying anything to disturb your apple cart but around here. ....We don't care about your apple cart.  I know you said you weren't trying to cause any problems, I believe you meant that,  but you came off so arrogant about it. "What makes you think you can beat Mayfield? "  Let me make it clear.  Our boys.  Their heart, their toughness, their desire to win.

My question is this.  How does most feel that Mayfield's great teams lately would compare to what Dresden had last year?  We know how good that team was, and they definitely showed UC offense can be stopped, and the defense can be scored on.  Of course that was a loaded Dresden team, and UC was young and return everything.  I was curious so I punched the numbers in an unnamed website that compares teams.  Not that its accurate, but I was curious.  I compared Dresden 2016 to each Mayfield team all the way back to 09.  The gap between 2016 dresden, and the 09 Mayfield team was pretty large in favor of dresden, but every team from 10 till present from Mayfield was considered pretty even with last years Dresden team with them all being within a few points difference, and Mayfield was considered the favorite in about half the scenarios.  By this it seems Mayfield is equal almost every year to what Dresden had last year.  It may be far off, but I wouldn't consider Mayfield a ,  pushover same as UC ain't either.  For what its worth I still say that 2010 Mayfield team is the best 1a team I ever seen from either state, and I'd take them over last years Dresden team.

This is why Iove high school football and coacht. So many opinions and comparisons being made.  It's fun and entertaining.  I won't take anything away from Dresden and what they did last year but the team we put on the field against them was a hodgepodge of a team that had people in many different positions that they were not used to playing in.  I believe Dresden was good enough to beat any team we put out there but to say they stopped our offense is not a fair assessment.  Our offense was standing on the sidelines.  To add to that , since our guys play both ways,  our defense was on the sidelines as well.  I'm just saying we could have made it closer.  A lot closer.  

I have only seen highlights of Mayfield and I have spoken with some long time followers of the team.  The one thing that is the common denominator in all of their opinions is that the Cardinals struggle with any team that will punch them in the mouth.  Well. ..... I have no doubt that both teams will be throwing punches. The question is, which team can take the most punches and still get back up?  In  That scenario, I like my Tornadoes.

It is ridiculous to say UC hasnt ever been stopped, and I've heard that on this thread numerous times. Why isn't it a fair accesment to say Dresden stopped them?  You got 2 chances at them last year with the same results.  They held you to 7, and 14 points.  Its not a fluke when it happened twice.  They scored at will, and stopped UC period.  Big Swo you say Offense was on the sidelines? How so if Dresden scored near 50 thats 7tds did they not have to kick back off to UC giving them the same amount of chances?  Players play both ways so Defense on sidelines to?  That makes zero sense if your stars play both ways how can you say they was on sidelines?  How can you say both offense and defense Was on the sidelines?  Who was on the field for UC the chess club?  Is it hard to stop UC yes, but have they, and can they be stopped absolutely.  Can Mayfield do it I have no clue.  Any team can be stopped i know of a record setting team that was undefeated, that rushed for 6200 yards that season that got beat by 50 late in the playoffs.  Doesn't matter how much you can move the ball if you fumble, and fail to hit pay dirt.

If the cardinals don't like getting punched in the mouth, and are as weak as you are implying, then I'd say UC is a bad matchup for them.  UC definitely is physical, and if Mayfield doesn't like to play physical I'd say UC will run it at will, but I'm not sure I'm buying that.  Hard to believe a team with their credentials isn't use to playing teams thats physical.  Sounds like some sandbagging by some of the Mayfield followers if they are telling you that.  Either that or Mayfield has benefited from playing the sisters of the poor to get all their titles, which is doubtful.
