Bottom line every year is Beat Gallatin for MJ.    This year will be no different.   Lots of scoring for MJ.   

^^^Many times they have succeeded, many more times they have failed. Gotta love rivalries. Go Green Wave!

Friday night is going to be great high school football. 2 very hard working programs coupled with last seasons convincing loss to the Golden Bears, and both being undefeated has brought this rivalry back to it's peak. So much tradition in this series. MJ is excited to face a real opponent, Gallatin is riding high after Saturday's big victory. You can't win in November if you can't win games like this one in the regular season. 

 

Bears - 24

Green Wave - 13

"Neither team has been tested".....obviously did not see the Hillsboro game.  Definitely tested.  

I would say winning by a score of 16-14 is being "tested."

I like that motto, hopefully it comes true Friday night. Like I've said numerous times. If you want to be the best you have to beat the best. It starts here.

Going to be a good game.  Good luck to both teams and pulling for a nice injury free night.

Not sure who wins but the final will be 2-0 just like the early 80's.  My roommate at MTSU was an MJ graduate and talked me into going to that game.  Was stationed on the goal line on the MJ side on the Hartsville Pike end of the Waveyard.  Both the safety and the missed MJ field goal occurred on that end.  Largest crowd in a high school stadium I have seen to this date.  The game Friday night will be an extremely physical test for both teams.  Should be a great one.

Man I can't count how many times I've been reminded of the 2-0 slug fest that night. I'm sure it was a sight to see

There's a reason MJ isn't in the top 10 AP poll despite giving up 0 points on the season.  Gotta beat somebody to be somebody.

Preach!!  That game gets brought up every time these teams meet.  Truth is there have been several very memorable games between these two teams.  

Both of these teams being undefeated along with having good defenses makes this intriguing.  Gallatin wants to prove they can score on the unscored on and beat another quality team, especially after last years game, while Mt Juliet wants to beat a good opponent and play with a chip on their shoulder from not being recognized for their play so far.

I also was there and was lucky to have a seat at the 50 yard line top row on the visitors side..I still believe that was the state championship game that year !

This here describes Friday night perfectly. Tradition, respect, and both have something to prove to each other and the rest of the state. I can't wait!
