Mitchell at Whitehaven

Last season: Mitchell 8-5; Whitehaven 15-0

Why you need to be there: If you still want more action after Friday, the annual Whitehaven Classic concludes on Saturday with this backyard brawl. The teams have met 12 times since 2002 and Whitehaven has won all 12, including 33-0 last season. But neighborhood pride is at stake and few teams play Whitehaven as tough as Mitchell does. And they'll probably be selling smoked sausages which is always a good thing.  

 

The Commercial Appeal preseason Dandy Dozen No.1 team will host thw Mitchell Tigers in the 11th annual Whitehaven Classic on Saturday, August 19.

This is the last game of the Whithaven classic. It will be played at 8:00 PM, according to the schedules I've seen. I know that Hamilton and Westwood are suppose to play at 3:00 PM. Accordig to the CA, Fairley plays Southwind at 5:30.

Any possibility of a realistic opinion on Whitehaven for this season. Better or worse than previous seasons? No bias please.

Just depends on if the youth matures. Tough schedule but we should be favored in every matchup. This would be the year to get us. If not this year I can't promise we'll ever be ripe for the pickings again!

THIS RIVAL GAME BRINGS A GREAT GATE AND GAME EVENTHO DA HAVEN IS 6A  AND DA TIGERZ ARE 2A. NOW IN MY REGION MY OWLS ARE GETTING ROASTED FOR BEGINNING WITH A 2A TEAM IN TYNER AND THEY AINT NO CUPCAKE.

What's wrong with folks... What's realistic?!?!? We should be in the Semifinals every year and we are usually better and deeper than every area team and unless there's a Middle TN team with way more size and comparable athleticism we should beat them and go to the Title game. That's realistic. How much more realistic you want us to be. I Told you folks from Middle that we were the favorite against the almighty , unbeatable Oakland and you didn't want to hear it. Well with that being said whatever I or anyone says about Whitehaven should be looked at as LAW. The audacity of these folks.

And that folks was the level headed, calm version from BHS.

Anybody seen Galilee?

I guess the 2A folks aren't interested in this game at all.

Now that Freedom prep has a football program it has taken a chunk from the pickings for both Mitchell  and fairley....I saw a couple guys I knew should be at Mitchell but that's how it goes.....they may struggle in they're own division....our D will swarm!!!

KWC here I am. Will not make game this year, my first time missing classic while living in Memphis. We must find our offense. Defense will be good but against the Mighty Whitehaven we feel like what the spies said after scouting the promise land o Moses, "The Giants are so big that we are like grasshoppers in their eyes"
