Based on what I saw at the Jamboree, Haywood should win this one big. Where is the game?

I hope you're right.  It's in Brownsville.  I'd love to see the Covington-Westview game, but I need to support the Tomcats.

Dyersburg losing #42 is a HUGE loss.

I was convinced everyone reported that score backwards

Dyersburg will show up but imo they were way overrated. They are a year away. Playing multiple sophomores and losing middle linebacker and fullback was a massive blow. My heart hurts for #42. He was a beast and his career might be over.

I hate it for #42 as well.  I hope this injury will not destroy his dreams or career.

Both Haywood and Dyersburg come into the game with 3-1 records. and both have been ranked in the top ten (4A).  Ironically, both have suffered 35 point losses.  Haywood lost 42-7 to Olive Branch on Sept. 6, and Dyersburg lost 35-0 to Hardin Co. on Sept. 13.  This is a huge region game for both teams, and they usually play each other tough.  I won't make any predictions as to the score, but it should be another good game between these region rivals.

As of today, Cal Preps projects a score of 48 -17 in favor of Haywood.  Sonny Moore's power rankings give Haywood an 18 point edge.  

However, when you play the game, you can throw all of those projections and rankings out the door.  Teenagers can be unpredictable.   Attitude, motivation, injuries, along with other factors can be game changers.  As a case in point, the power ranking for Dyersburg on Sept. 13 was 7 points higher than Hardin County's ranking, yet Hardin Co. defeated Dyersburg 35 - 0. 

That's why we play the game!

If Haywood stays focused, and the Cats can cut the penalties, I do think Haywood will win.

#42 was a beast and my thoughts and prayers go out to him, definitely want to see him back on the field one day. As for the game, this one is easy, Haywood by a lot!
