1 guy will not beat this Covington team, we don't have that 1 guy, we have a complete team that doesn't give up and knows that they can hang with the best, been tested all year and who has RE played Really? Have they been tested? We're ready to see what all the RE hype is about come Friday night!  35 - 14 Covington 

1/0 this week...go chargers

So, I have been looking at some stats:

http://shelbymetrosports.blogspot.com/2017/11/updated-team-stats-as-of-11-2.html

 

According to this info, here are some comparisons:

Points per game

RE - 45.7

Covington 38.0

Rushing yards per game

Cov 339

RE 270

Total offense per game

Covington - 419

RE -390

Defense - points allowed per game

RE - 9.8

Covington - 14.8

Rushing yards per game allowed

RE- 34.3

Covington - 135.4

Defense - total yards per game allowed

RE - 109.4 ( fewest in Shelby Metro)

Covington - 266.1

To me, the most concerning stat here is Raleigh-Egypt's rushing defense. Now they have not probably played a rushing attack like ours yet, but these stats tell me that RE has a lot more going for them than just Grandberry running the ball. I'm sure that Coach Wheeler and staff are aware of what they are facing, but the stats are very interesting to me as a fan.

Looking at those stats, there are only 2 teams that RE has played that are ranked on offense in the metro and that's Arlington(5th in pts/gm, 2nd in passing/gm, and 2nd in yards total/gm) and Harding Academy(7th rushing/gm).  I would say they haven't seen a rushing attack like Covingtons yet this year, but even so for RE to hold teams to 34 rushing yards per game is saying something.

Covington will also be one of the most disciplined teams & talented at the skill position as any team they have faced this year.

Great stuff. Also, RE and Covington have faced three common opponents ... Bolivar, SGC, and Melrose. I'm not my computer today or I would post the scores of each as another comparison. ChargerFan, if you would be so kind. It's hard to post on here with the phone. I thought those were interesting as well.

RE is FAR from being a one man team. They average about 120 yds/game passing the ball. Statistically, they have the stingiest defense in the Shelby County/Metro Memphis area. You don't consistently put up those types of numbers being a one man show. It takes a TEAM to play that kind of D.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. To win championships you have to be able to do two things. Run the ball, and stop the run. RE is excellent at BOTH.

I have seen both teams play. Covington clearly is the better team. RE is no joke though. They have the best running back I have seen this year. Covington is the best team I have seen this year as a whole. 

Hey covington " Stop #3  and you win this contest hands down. " He is handful and it will not be easy but if you can stop him you stop RE. 

Hmm ... Clearly huh?

OK, if you say so.

  Per KWC's request

COMMON OPPONENT DATA

vs Melrose

RE won 42-6 (season)

Cov won 24-12 (playoffs)

vs Bolivar

RE won 41-13 (playoffs)

Cov won 47-20 (season)

vs South Gibson

RE won 26-14 (playoffs)

Cov won 49-21 (season)

It's hard to see much of a pattern there. RE did much better vs Melrose, and Covington did much better vs SGC. Results vs Bolivar were very similar.

    • I remember very well watching things change in the late 80's and yes it's all schools. Most people that are in charge today have any idea because they were raised and taught under this social experiment so they don't have a clue. Anyone that does see the truth for what it is usually try and hide it by blending in so that the School Gestapo doesn't round them up and take them to the Fuhrer ( kindly putting it ). Yes it is all schools not just Maryville. This train ride is not headed in a good direction and if the public had seen a movie of what's happening now back in 1980 everyone would have been headed home afterwards to change underware.  
    • Hoping to make the playoffs.
    • You are so correct!  It’s really 99.9% of academia want to change to way that education is not only taught but the way it is viewed.  The pendulum has definitely swung as far to the left as possible and eventually will swing to the right much too far.  I have always  said that politics and one’s personal religious views need to stay out of education,  but for the last 40 years education has been running full throttle to what we have today.  If the social experiment that we are currently experiencing continues it is only a matter of time before the public school system in the USA completely collapses and all kids attend private schools or even worse don’t go to school.
    • He was a bruise but Aaron Dykes is HVA’s best RB ever.
    • I am talking about what they both did for their team. They both carried their team for four years while they were both there. I wasn’t really comparing them that would be unfair. Bishop is on a level of his own.
