NCS 35 to 14, Unless, we start using the funky play calling we have seen all year. If so, it could be 35 14 the other way.

Thought I'd jump over here and check on you eagles, sounds like y'all have got things rolling at the right time. Good luck this week from your old buddy from Wayne County!

If this FC team matched up with 2011 or 2012 FC teams there would be a running clock reeeeeal quick. I will say this is a very good FC team, but those teams were just that good. With this said, FC wins by 14 because I believe the all around coaching staff is the best in the division. They will be prepared and get it done.

NCS will have to develop some sort of passing attack to win this game, as will FCS. 

 Anyone have any passing stats both teams?

The funny thing about this is everyone has said NCS needs a passing attack all year, yet the Eagles continue to rack up rushing yards. No offense to the FC coaches but BGA has a legit coaching staff and a better team. NCS still had over 250 on the ground that night. I love how over confident FC is right now.  Myers faces 9 and 10 man boxes every week and leads TN in yards per game. Buckle up, the Eagles are coming

The FC fans are confident in their Commanders like you are in your Eagles.  I would say most fans know very little about the other team's abilities, but, they know all the details of their own team and support their team unconditionally.  You seem to have confidence in the Eagles as you should because they are a great team.  Don't read too much into the post of the Commander fans being over confident just like I won't with the Eagle fans that are saying you guys will win easily.   We love our teams.

This FC team is definitely in the discussion among the schools all-time best.  They are loaded with Sr’s who love playing as a unit.  They have good team speed and more than one game-breaker offensively.  To cement their place they need to bring home the gold ball.

I’m concerned that they haven’t played much competition his yr with an average TC team being maybe the best team so far.  Another concern is the interior of the FC o-line.  Power’s is a beast and brings it every play.  However, it’s beyond time to get Cherry on the field offensively in the middle of that o-line.  Once you get to this point you’ve gotta put your best 11 on the field.  

Defensively, Coach Lowe will have the defense prepared x & o wise.  DCA’s qb exposed some mid season weaknesses but hopefully they’ve been corrected and coached up since.

NCS coach Brother’s is top notch and will be likewise prepared.  Should be a good one to watch.

don't know a lot about NC but what I do know is the NC fans need to take FC seriously because it is just tough for me to imagine that they have what FC does on the interior, but like I said I don't know a lot about NC. The winner of this game wins state IMO.

I have watched a lot of film on FC and seen every NCS game. The line play will likely cancel each other out.  As with any high school team though, the team with the best player normally wins games.  FC has not faced a team that can do what NCS does offensively.  I give Brothers credit for scheduling tough competition early in the year. NCS is battle tested. FC does what they do and pretty well, I might add. I think it is foolish for anyone to think this game will be anything other that two fighters standing in the middle of the ring trading blows.  Everyone needs to get ready for a physical night of football

Thanks for the info. Always enjoy an intelligent and civil response. Hope everyone enjoys watching a game of heavy doses of a downhill, physical run game. should be fun.

From what I have seen on film I agree with OrangeEagle the line play cancels out.  It will be interesting to see a Smith/Lawless matchup! Running back edge to NCS. Both teams will have to find just enough of a passing game. Slight edge to FC.  Special teams edge to NCS. Overall skill play edge to NCS.

Note: There is danger lurking if the ball is in the air. 

Congrats to both teams and  praying for a safe game.

Nashville Christian boasts a pair of Mr. Football finalists in defensive lineman Brant Lawless (47 tackles, 7 sacks) and running back Xavier Myers (2,451 yards rushing, 36 TDs), but Friendship is the favorite. Friendship outscored opponents 400-107 en route to its first undefeated regular season since 2006.

Kreager’s pick: Nashville Christian 27, Friendship 24
Murphy’s pick: Nashville Christian 17, Friendship 10

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
