thegreatone36 Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Ouch. I bet MJ has heard about all of the disrespect. Blackman will be in for a game whether people want to admit it or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFootball71 Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Probably deserve some of the disrespect with their opponents record of 46-65. They haven’t faced anyone this year with the size, speed, and athletes of Blackman. Knox, Otey, Napier, and Elder are all D1 commits and that is just on offense. The Bears are a very good team but I am afraid that the soft schedule catches up with them on Friday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegreatone36 Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Weak or tough schedule, they will give Blackman a game. What I dont understand is Blackman would beat nearly every school in the state regardless of level this year, yet nobody will get bashed for it the way Mt. Juliet would.

When you go 10-0 every year and talk about how great you are but get bounced in the first or second round you are gonna get bashed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegreatone36 Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 They have been to the 6A semis twice since 2010. And lost to eventual state champ Whitehaven in that game by 6 points. Thats closer than Blackman has ever sniffed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrangeEagle Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 I'm not sure why everyone thinks this game will get out of hand. When taking a look at common opponents, both teams scored 28 on Hendersonville and one could make the arguement MJ actually dominated Cookeville while Blackman allowed the Cavs to somewhat hang around in the first half. I think this game comes down to the Blackman QB and it's that simple. Can he make enough throws to keep the chains moving at the critical moments or will he turn it over? I dont see either team with a lot of gashing type runs. I expect this game to be very physical. One thing to watch from a couple of the Blackman players is will they keep their cool if the game is close. Untimely unsportsmanlike penalties COULD play a factor. Friday can get here fast enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackman played in 2013 Semi losing to eventual 6A champ Maryville who smashed Hendersonville in the final. This game won't be close. Too much speed for the Blaze.

MJ was actually driving for a game winning score against Whitehaven to make it to state and just didn't convert. Just saying if people are going to act like Blackman & MJ are on two totally different planets as far as success, they are pretty much the same. Show me where Blackman is a more successful program than MJ. I'll wait. This will be a great game Friday regardless...

I don’t think anyone has said anything about Blackman having a more successful program than MJ. Some were just pointing out that MJ has played a softer schedule this season than Blackman, which is true. It doesn’t really matter who has had more success in the past. The game this Friday is all that matters at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the way they handle business against the better teams on the schedule still indicates that it is a very solid football team. I just dont think this is going to be over by halftime like most seem to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My prediction is Blackman by a couple scores Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
