Gallatin vs Hendersonville

[thegreatone36]

Don't know the last time these two haven't faced each other as district/region foes, but this one will still come down to just pure ol' braggin' rights. Suprised this one hasn't been mentioned yet. Who ya got?

Hendersonville brings a lot of offense to the table.  Hughes is a very good runner with good speed.  When he gets going it is hard on opposing defenses.  On top of that is Brett Coker who is rewriting the Hendersonville record book with the passing game.  The Commandos have a very potent offense.  Gabe Dalton is a clutch receiver who helps that offense turn.  Gallatin counters with a stiff defense.  Lots of speed and big hitters.  Scores have been deceptive because of the younger guys getting quality minutes.  That will help in the long run.  Gallatin offense seems to sputter at times but has remained effective when they have to be.  Hendersonville has had a time slowing down good running attacks.  This is a good matchup and should be an exciting game for the fans.

Don't feel that Hendersonville sticks with what is successful for them offensively while Gallatin seems to stay the course. Both can be explosive offensively. On the other side Hendersonville has not proven to be in control giving up way too much. Gallatin seems to be stronger here.

This game is in the Wave yard and the advantage goes to Gallatin.

I agree with every word of this.  Wave in a close one.

I'll take the Green Wave in this rivalry matchup.

I hope y'all are right.  Hendersonville's offense can score a lot of points.  They probably want revenge for that beat down they got last year too.

Oh for sure, Gallatin will have their hands full, this is not a win that will get handed to them, and they had better bring it all 4 quarters.

Gallatin wins easily, running clock by the start of the 4th quarter. Too much size and speed for the Commandos.

Gallatin holds the all-time lead in this series 38-17-1. But that is mostly because from 1964-1996 Gallatin owned the series 28-4-1. Since 1996 this series has been 14-13 in favor of Gallatin so a very good rivalry.

It would seem that this is a battle of a conservative defensive Gallatin team going up against an aggressive offensive Hendersonville team.

Gallatin lost to Mt. Juliet 37-0 but in their other 6 games they only allowed 6, 7, 10, 14, 17 and 22. And on the flipside the best teams they have played so far are probably Mt. Juliet, Hillsboro and Springfield and they scored 0, 16 and 24 in those games.

Hendersonville hasn't been held to less than 21 this year. They have scored 21, 23, 28, 31, 42, 47 and 56. On defense they held Station Camp to 7 but in the other games allowed 17, 21, 28, 29, 35 and 63.

Gallatin is 5-1 and Hendersonville is 4-3. However I feel like if they swapped schedules around the records would probably be the same. So throw that out the window.

From what I've seen of Hendersonville and read about other games if they are dedicated to running the ball with their main backs they are very hard to stop. But when they get to wanting to force feed the ball to other outlets they make mistakes.

I think Hendersonville wins a close game.

Hendersonville 28

Gallatin 21
