Figured I’d get this one started. 

I know it’s only week 5, but this is probably the region 7 championship game. 

@Pilgrim and @Kevin38 how are the cats looking this year? Heard they have an experienced defense. 

I’ll make a prediction later. 

Cant wait to see film on this bunch! Early thoughts are we will be fine but I wont make a prediction until Thursday.

Speaking of freshman quarterbacks, Clarksville High starts one as well. I see our defense giving him a Haywood type game. He’s going to be in for a rude awakening this week. Not to mention their issues on special teams, especially on punt team. I like the Patriots big in this one.

Their defense is fairly stout, we had trouble running the ball but were still getting our feet under us offensively at the time and our line is pretty small...

They do have a huge line on both sides, 2 D1 players with plenty offers (300 pounders), and the freshman QB is pretty good, strong arm and accurate, they were switching him out with the senior QB who is a better runner, not sure if they still are...

They have the talent player wise to play with ya'll but I think ya'll are in their heads, they just can't seem to get it together against HC, for that reason I say HC wins by at least 3 scores..

Just in my opinion their freshman QB is not even close to Brentwoods QB! We held him to 109 yards passing or something close to that. Brentwood had I believe 3 guys on defense named to 6A preseason team. We will be fine. They havent seen a team like HC all season. We have 3 opponents that we have faced that would wipe the floor with Clarksville High!

The more I think about it, the more I could see somewhat of a letdown game for the Pats. Coming off two big wins at home, now back to the road where we’re 0-2 so far this season. I don’t think there’s any chance at all we lose this game, but the score might be a little closer than most think, including myself. My original thought was 42-10. But I could also see a 28-13 game. Regardless, I don’t think the CHS offense has much luck against our defense. I just don’t see them scoring 14 or more.

Yeah in no shape or form do I believe their freshman QB is as good as Brentwood's much more experienced QB, in fact I believe he's better than he showed last Friday, but Clarksville has size and good athletes, having said that they lose 42-7 this week.....

    • Lol! I was being a bit facetious. 
    • Way late on this post, but I do believe that I want to at least weight in so to speak lol. I wrestled NAIA competed against some of the best wrestler over all a crossed the divisions and felt great about my college wrestling experience. I think people make the mistake in believe that wrestling some how gets easier as a sport at the smaller college divisions it doesn't the training is mostly the same. I have that on good authority from a coach who was a D1 all-American. it's more the commitment level of the competitors that is different. There is talented wrestlers that can go D1 at any level in the smaller division. sub in Sammy Shires for one he would have done fine on a DI team. He chose a work life ratio that suited him. It's not about talent it's commitment are you going to make training and studying the sport the center of your world cause that's what it takes: NO MATTER HOW TALATENTED BEFORE HAND YOU ARE.  If so then D1 is for you and striving for success at that level is for you like Mr. Palmer said it's what your willing to put in. Now coaches if you have a successful wrestler who fits that bill then by all means D1 is a great option they will see some success no matter how small, but if they are not that committed along with being talented and a killer and you know it then your doing them wrong.  You don't have to tell athletes that you don't think they are D1 tell them to keep their options open to take all their visits to consider all the divisions regardless of their goals. college recruiting visits have you most times wrestle against their current wrestlers coaches and athletes  will find out real quick it's not easy no matter where you go. That way when they make their decision it's a sound one that's based on well rounded experiences.     BobCorker, and oceansize42 I believe what you are thinking is correct but for different reasons. TN wrestler's have the talent... it's a commitment level change. TN wrestlers aren't used to having to put themselves through the level of commitment required and kills them on the D1 level.    WrestlingGod, I agree you should push kids to pursue their dreams, but not at the cost of common sense period... we have to much of that going around this country already. Dreams can turn to poison when these wrestler are not educated on what it truly takes. In TN  a kid who understands wrestling to a high level can be successful with small amounts of hard work. They think their definition of hard work is enough for D1 that is the mistake not the "talent/understanding".  Over-all though we do not celebrate NAIA,D2,D3, or Juco success in this state like other states do. GA/AL celebrates all it's college wrestlers success a crossed the  board no matter the division. Why? because it's hard... I have gone to all the divisions National championships let me tell you to be a all-American at any is impressive especially D2 or NAIA. those guys can scrap and not one of those AA's are an easy match. all of them were state placers or champs multiple times in their high school careers. does that at all sound easy to place at? TN does not give those guys enough credit or shout outs period. it's an over sight because of this D1 or it's less than meaningless   mentality on this site and in this state. GA/AL is better then us on the highest stage because they send guys to D2,NAIA,D3 ect. they come back understanding the sport better then their pervious coaches, and give back and that cycles to athletes readiness to go D1 with clearer understanding of what it takes to be competitive day 1 freshman year.             My post isn't to support one way or the other but to just consider that both sides have merit and that both work when the system in TN. by system I mean coaches are the better educated on preparing athletes for each level they want and should pursue.        
    • If you think McKenzie could've beat Riverside I have a bridge you might like to buy. 
    • Hate to hear Ricky is heading to the old folk's home!
    • By recruiting, I mean members of a coaching staff are talking to, meeting with, giving tours, to students, and their guardians, that are not zoned for their school.    there’s no way that many non Bearden kids just showed up all at once without being recruited. It can’t be a coincidence that all those kids also went through the middle school all star game your boss puts on every year.
