Mt. Juliet vs Oakland

Winning the line of scrimmage on defense will be the key in this game.  Oakland made adjustments in the second half of the Maryville game on the offensive line (focused on firing out on the Maryville linebackers (trying to slow their speed and the damage the Rebs LB's could do with their outside pursuit).  They had some success, but did not adjust on the defensive line as much.  Maryville lost to Alcoa because of great line play and Alcoa passed the ball 16 times or more.  My assumption is that Oakland and M.J. are run heavy.  The team that stops the run wins the game.  

As a Rebel fan, I would rather not face Oakland again, especially at Oakland.   I hope MJ wins. I grew up in the area and would like for them to have a shot to play Maryville (assuming Rebs win, of course). Hard to believe someone in that region can knock off the Patriots. (Past history does not favor the Bears).  

P.S.  I think Oakland should have passed more on Maryville.  They can pass, they just don't need to very much! Prove me wrong M.J. stop the run, make them pass. Let's see what happens!

Proud of the Golden Bears this season. I think this surge started 2 years ago really. Say what you want about a weak schedule but from what I understand MJ is pretty healthy right now. Better to play a real 5 game season with healthy bodies, than limping into the playoffs. CTP and staff are doing an amazing job right now.

Injuries can strike literally at any moment. You should be proud of MJ, they've earned some respect from me, but there is no advantage to playing a weak non region schedule. Already adding Blackman to the schedule for '19-20 hammers that point home. That schedule was created for job security.

    • hey goat! how’s monterey looking this year?! 
    • several people actually. they said “snoball, do you know who railbird81 is on coacht?” I said, “never heard of her.” they said, “you ought to check it out they’re getting fired up on there like the old days.” well, you can imagine my disappointment when I came here expecting sharp, witty banter and all i found was more akin to toddlers slap fighting. and what looks like 1 guy/gal talking to themselves with multiple accounts.
    • Shopping? His family is loaded and he's 6'6 I'm pretty sure he could start anywhere in upper East TN,So no need to shop. Word is Witten got caught trying to work him out on campus and some 7 on 7 while playing athletics for Sullivan East. Word got around pretty quick and Someone turned them into TSSAA.
    • Quick update on Jacob -  Jacob celebrated his 16th birthday at Vanderbilt on Tuesday and has been in decent spirits.  His sense of humor has begun to show as he was visited by many friends.  He is swallowing a lot better now and has eaten some of his favorites (Chik-Fil-A and Five Guys).   He is getting prepared to head to Atlanta to the Shepherd Center first thing tomorrow morning.  His family has been waiting on insurance approval. In case you dont know the Shepherd Center it a world class facility and supposedly one of the best in the country for spinal injury rehab.  Praying for perfect results there. Considering the circumstances, Jacob is in decent spirits.  He has some reflexive movement in his legs which I think is probably a very positive sign.  Don't read too much into that just yet as there is no telling what the real prognosis is... just hopeful that is good thing.  I am really just happy that it seems like he has a punchers chance of getting something back.  He is a strong young man and very determined so I think he will fight as hard as he can in physical therapy while down in Atlanta. More than one of you has asked me about an address to send donations.  I know GoFundMe isn't for everyone.  If you want to go that route, you can make a check to "Blackman Wrestling Club" and we will pass anything received directly to the Kinderdines.   Jacob Kinderdine c/o Blackman Wrestling 4836 Trevino Court Murfreesboro, TN  37128 Also, want to thank everyone who has donated so far.  Jacobs dad will take a month off work and stay in Atlanta with him.  They need to learn how to take care of him and do home therapy work..... and surely Jacob will be glad his dad can be there.  All that could not happen without you all.  Depending on what happens, they will probably end up doing some home remodeling in order to accommodate Jacob at their home.  Thanks again. Here's a pic I lifted from Facebook of Jacob on Oxy talking to his Uncle.  LOL
