Or better known as Russ "Baby Face" Lindsay to the AC Fans.  You did forget Stone "Diesel" Cummins who started for them last year on the O and D line.  I see him getting some carries this year after losing Gallaher and Moog. 

I've not seen him get any carries but they've rotated several RBs. I've seen at least 3 different guys and I've seen them utilize their smaller faster wide receivers with motion and jet sweeps.

How do they look?  Have you seen Clinton play this fall in any scrimmages?

Saw the MoEast scrimmage and they looked still explosive on offense. They still aired it out but seemed much more run oriented offensively but had a lot of moving parts and eye candy with jet motion  with all runs.  I dont know who he was but they had this big bruising back and rotated in faster RB Josh Miller. WR wise they like Austin Elliot but they spread the ball around pretty well and seemed to have a lot of depth at WR. 

 

Defensively as crazy as this sounds I swear they are physically larger up front with their DL and LBs. I know I was told that they physically dominated Rhea Co in a scrimmage with Rhea busting or or two plays. 

 

I saw Clinton scrimmage white co and OZ. White co was basically just JV. Oz had starters in. Felt like Clinton's strong point was their two interior DLineman. I think their DBs are too timid and scared of getting beat deep and need to be more aggressive. Offensively seemed like a standard wingt team but I didnt see much speed with the wings.

I haven't seen AC at all this year. And the only time I've seen Clinton, was at the Jamboree last week. So this is a tough game for me to pick.

I don't think it's going to be a blowout by any means. This game should be closer in my opinion, but will Clinton have enough to pull off the upset? I just don't know.

I hate to pick against my Dragons, but right now I'm gonna say AC 34 Clinton 20

Well 5Star is reporting Farragut kicker transferred to AC. What I been hearing AC needed a kicker/ punter.. Great news cat wait to see him kick.

Looks like field position just got a lot better for AC. That kid is 5* rated kicker 

 

I just looked him up.

Kohl's Kicker Camp and Prokicker.com both have him rated top 25 in nation.

Too much rivalry going into the game to predict a blow out. Rivalries are funny and always bring out the best in teams. Emotions are always high. What I can see is AC while still airing it out are running the ball more. I think with Clinton obviously being heavy run and AC being more run oriented I think the game will move quickly.

Yeah, I can see it going that way. I would think both teams would want to use the run to set up the pass, but both teams may surprise everyone and come out throwing. It will be interesting to see what type of chess match the coaches will put on.

Probably, I was a HS School FB coach for 24 years and an administrator 16 years. I try to logically look at things and come to my conclusions. After the conclusions, I bring in the emotions, ribbing, my team type thing. I am wrong a lot but it tends to be a thoughtful wrong.

    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
