Round 1: Riverdale @Mt Juliet

So. This is not last year's Mt Juliet. In anyway. Not the same players, or coaching. This team looks to be in disarray after last night's thrashing. 

Hendersonville is not Riverdale either (seen both against Oakland). That team would get destroyed by the Warriors. Not sure what has happened to the MJ defense. This team doesn't have the hard nosed smothering defense that Abner always puts out. No powerful running game, 2 strengths TP has always implemented in his teams. 

Riverdale will surge early because of mistakes. MJ will crumble fast if something bad happens early. Last year I said MJ would be wiped over quickly by the "Rutherford County Surge" that Oakland, Riverdale and Blackman come out the gate with that intimidates teams. I was wrong when they played Blackman in the second round. They withstood the early kickoff fumble and Blackman scored 3 plays later. I repeat I was wrong. But not this year, Riverdale will be up by 3 TDs by the end of the 1st and the Bears will be going into hibernation by this time next week if the same bunch comes out there with the same enthusiasm they had last night.

Iagree,,, I think Riverdale is playing better ball at the moment. The game last night will either be the epsom salts or sleeping gas... Mt Juliet will have to decide if they want to go on and play basketball or play another game of football .  Now as someone who grew up near and dear to Odessa Permian,"THE" real Mojo ... There aint but one.....

If we show up like last Friday, which I doubt the players/couches want to get embarrassed Like that again, we will get mercy ruled. With such a young team I’m ready to move onto next season anyway. This batch of players just don’t mesh well together and CONSTANTLY MAKE TERRIBLE MISTAKES. Not fun to watch.

That must be a tough pill to swallow. But nothing you are saying is wrong, I am still surprised how this season has played out for the Golden Bears. What is it that caused this team to collapse?

ITS PLAYOFF TIME! GOT THAT MOJO!

Collapse is the perfect term to describe the end of the season..... and beginning.

    • 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.
    • I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
