MJGOLDENBEARS Posted August 16, 2021 Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 The Golden Bears face off against long time rival Gallatin Green Wave Friday night. Not sure what to expect from either side. MJ has had a key injury and some ups and downs in scrimmages with good competition. Gallatin had yet to lose in the preseason but yet to really be tested by good competition. One things for sure Gallatin wants revenge after last years one sided affair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only have 4 D1 players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondo44 Posted August 16, 2021 Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 Low scoring game favors Gallatin, higher scoring game favors MJ. Gallatin needs to play keep away. Keep in mind that the MJ QB did start 12 games a year ago. Better thrower than Throneberry but not nearly the runner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but the dual threat in that duo was going to be nearly unstoppable. It’s a shame we won’t see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondo44 Posted August 16, 2021 Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 Based on preseason wouldn’t worry about their offense. Defense hasn’t been very good in their scrimmages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallatin fumbled in the end zone and gave up the td. They held Riverdale’s offense in check most of the scrimmage. Gallatin committed several turnovers that cost sustained drives. The 2’s scored the touchdown. So I guess it could be said 10-0. I was pretty happy that they played with intensity the entire scrimmage.

But I think back to last year and boy after that first game… he was a disaster. I hope he truly has improved.

They got torched by Beech and Clarksville. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add to it the long rivalry and history of these two teams. If the weather will cooperate, it will be a huge crowd being the opening game. I will be curious to see if the defense can stop the spread of MJ and mostly if the offense can maintain drives and grind out tds instead of settling for fg’s. How is your kicker? Usually that is a quality position for the Bears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
