steelcityroller Posted September 3, 2018 Report Share Posted September 3, 2018 These two teams met last year and Friendship came away with a 28-7 win. Goodpasture started off the season with a 48-0 win over a struggling DCA. Since have dropped games to Briarcrest Christian (48-0) and BGA (45-25). So a big win over a bad team and two losses to good teams. Friendship Christian is 2-1 with a loss to Trousdale County and wins against Liberty and Grace Baptist. Liberty is 0-3 and Grace Baptist is 1-1. I watched Goodpasture against DCA and there wasn't much to take away from that game because DCA is so bad they didn't have to do much in that game. I seen Friendship and Trousdale in person and was impressed with the passing game from FC. And TC has looked good on defense through 3 games. This is one of the games I'm debating on going to this week but feel like there is a possibility that FC could win this one going away. Thoughts?

youthsportsPIX Posted September 5, 2018 Report Share Posted September 5, 2018 my2cents...... From what I have seen Goodpasture must protect the ball and reduce the number of turnovers. In their last 2 games against Briarcrest and BGA they had 4 fumbles and 6 INT's. Both games they would move the ball and then self-destruct with a fumble or INT. Last Friday vs BGA had the ball in the red zone twice came away with zero points. BGA has a really good QB yet again who if the Defense gives him any time at all, will find one of his WR's and put 400+ yards on you. On a side note - In Memphis, the Cougars were lining up to punt just seconds into the 4th Quarter Briarcrest is up 41 to 0 and they pack 10 players on the line of scrimmage to try and block the Cougars punt! The play resulted in the Punter getting knocked down and Briarcrest got a Penalty Flag for Roughing the Kicker! This was one of the crazy things I have ever seen at a High School game. Rushing to Block a punt when you are up 40+ points with a running clock! Anyways, I think the FCS vs Goodpasture game should be interesting.

Will probably end up going to this game. A 10-minute drive versus 30-40 minutes elsewhere kinda helps the decision making process Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Score will be whatever FCS wants it to be but I am guessing a 28-7 final. Once JM gets the lead he is just gonna sit on it and run the clock. GCS appears to be much improved over last season but I do not see that adding up to many, if any, additional wins over the 1 they got last year.

Initial thoughts are FCS in a tight game. O looks to be more balanced for FCS this year and that line is fantastic. Could be a fun game to watch. Can DA keep the FCS running game in check and can FCS hold down the running and passing game from DA? What are your thoughts on that potential matchup?

But FCS has a very good passing game. I was very impressed with their passing game against TC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelcityroller Posted September 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 I didn't get to make it out to any games tonight. But it sounds like I missed a good one. The scoreboard is showing that this was tied 28-28 in the 4th quarter at the last update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigchief Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 FCS was up 28-14 at half. Goodpasture dominated them the entire 2nd half in all phases. Good win for the Cougars. The pick 6 late sealed the deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
