Panthers travel to the Dragon Den!

[92Dragon]

Powell visits Clinton for our first home game of the year.  Clinton will be without the services of one of our best players, so someone else will need to step up.

I would love to see Clinton come out and play with some heart and determination and give Powell all they want and more. 

Powell is my surprise team of the year. I believe Powell has a better than average defense and a very good offense. 

I'm going with Powell in this one.   

Powell 38  Clinton 14

Hope Clinton proves me wrong! Go Dragons!!

Clinton showed a lot of improvement against AC, and I think this game could be closer than some think, for 3 quarters or so. In the end, Powell probably has too much on both sides of the ball. Dragon, you're prediction looks spot on.

I worried last week's game against Karns would be a bit of a let down for the Panthers, and for one half, I was right. Powell's defense struggled early, but they really played well after halftime. Offensively, Powell clicked on all cylinders. They never punted, and only 3 drives results in zero points (INT, fumble at the goal line, took a knee on the final 2 plays at the goal line).

Thomas Harper for Karns is going to give alot of teams trouble this year, but I noticed Powell finally put a safety over the top and shut him down pretty much. 

We're still struggling on defense stopping the pass, it's no secret. I hope we can true that up sooner rather than later.

I know this will be a very physical and hard hitting game. I just hope both teams come out injury free.

Yay a home game. Powell should win comfortably but I think Clinton could give em a game for a bit. I'm interested to see who the interim will be (assuming McKamey's suspension appeal gets denied) and how that will change things on offense, if it will at all.

Kinda like how I do on NCAA 2017....Hail Marry every play on offense and 4-4 all out blitz every play on defense. 

See....coaching ain't that hard.

Powell wins big,  Hopefully they take their starters out early..... buh dum tsss

Is Clinton head coach going to be able to coach?

[DragonVol]

I’ll go with 45-7 powel. Too many athletes. I’ve heard that Clinton had multiple starters out so that obviously won’t help any. Hopefully it’s a clean, well played game.
