Last night was a great improvement especially defensively. I know the score doesn't show it and SS did enough damage to themselves to help my Tornadoes win but we held them to 190 yards total offense. One of the Hawks TDs came on a kickoff return. I want to be clear, I am in no way trying to compare SS with the Tide. There's no comparison. Peabody is the best team in 2A. Hands down. My Tornadoes will have to step up big time to make this game competitive. I am only saying that we are starting to become a legit threat and any team that sleeps on UC will get a huge wake up call. I know the Tide is well coached and they don't sleep on anyone. I agree with Pride, this game will be closer than a lot of people expect. We are allowing 5.3 points per game on average on defense. The scores don’t reflect it because our young skill players have made some mistakes. We have had like 4 pick 6’s. Two of the pick 6’s were pass interference. our defense has out scored opponents on the last 6 games. We have scored on special teams on just about every game I believe. All of that being said it could still be a close game. Any game can be lost or won. Hopefully our men show up and don’t start slow. I think they will be ready they know all about Union city Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok so brutal honesty time that I think both fan bases will have to agree with Peabody slow start and we have a dogfight Peabody offensive mistakes we have a dogfight UC limits fumbles and controls the clock while on O ,we have a dogfight Tide starts fast limits mistakes and wins in the trenches it could get ugly. If it seems to simple of a analysis sorry but I know these programs ,I know where they are at NOW and if you think the Tide can blow them out or the Twisters can win in a ugly dogfight you right ! It's Black N Gold It's Purple N Gold The Golden Traditions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s limit mistakes and crack some heads. the liberty game wasn’t who we are. They were just to flat.

I fully expect our coaching staff to get this fixed ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TennReb31 Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 Honestly, starting the season I would not have given us a plug nickle's chance in this game. New coach, new system, lot of players without a lot of playing time and no preseason. However, my boys have steadily gotten better each week to this week when they put together one of the most complete games they have yet. That being said, Peabody is Peabody and that is a team on a several year roll. Nobody is going to walk in and over them. But, to quote The Nature Boy, " To be the man you gotta beat the man". Peabody is deservedly the man right now. But sooner or later everybody falls. Any given Friday you know. But, is this the year, and are we the team? I don't know. But I like our chances better than I did just a few weeks ago. Should be a fun game either way, and the Pride/Tornado rivalry tradition will continue. Look forward to seeing you guys.

He said that the town had been talking about the opponents for Thursday and they must have heard it and he said as coaches they didn’t do a good enough job changing that mindset. I guess they thought they were just going to win. That’s why they stalled in the first quarter. I’m paraphrasing all this not word for word. Like you said where Peabody is now as a team it blows my mind they are getting sidetracked like that.

That’s just the players mindset going into the game, they get that as soon as they see them on film or what not. No doubt the mindset will be different this week. UC is always physical so if you’re not ready for that then you’ll be in trouble 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
