i am going to this game tonight on my way to Knoxville.  Two great programs and very excited to witness some playoff football. Brentwood won earlier this year 42-31 and i expect another shootout tonight. i think it will be a touchdown or less difference tonight. Independence is very well coached and will not be beat twice easily.

It was a great game, but I'm surprised at the lack of a crowd that Brentwood had at home. You'd think a program like that would have more support for a 2nd round home playoff game against an in-county rival. 

As for the game itself, I noticed that Indy's offense couldn't really sustain drives, but they big-played Brentwood enough to stay in it. I didn't get a good look at the final play of the game in OT because we were standing near the endzone (near the gate so we could run to the car and warm-up as soon as it ended), but it looked like the QB tried to pitch and should have just held it and lived to fight another play.  It was one of the best games I've seen all year as a whole though. Exciting the entire time.

heck of a game  i witnessed friday night in the cold windy air....i thought independence had the best crowd and the best player on the field....however the qb got selfish in double ot and didn't give it to him on the wr in motion sweep.....should have.....very surprised no one has been on this thread. 

the brentwood crowd was very disappointing. the qb for independence had been pulled early in the first half to get back into the game and lead the comeback. However he was selfish and should have just given the ball to sheffield on the wr sweep on the last play instead of trying to make a play and be the hero himself.

    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
    • What is the hold up here? I have not heard anything in weeks. Are they waiting for the right person or is something else going on?
    • Per usual, we'll be hard to beat in the regular season, I'm sure. It's the post season that I'm more worried about, specifically the coaches. Maybe they'll be able to make some adjustments that will keep the momentum in our favor. How's Grays recovery coming along?
    • Something don’t add up here a college coach is not going to turn away a good player they need just because they didn’t get along with their high school coach 
    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
