I've seen Clay on film. Their schedule so far is charmin soft. They do have a solid combo of QB-Wr's but that defense isn't very good. Scott wins. Getting those transfers eligible this week will make a huge difference. 

2 good players will def help!

Much needed speed. I ran into one of the assistant coaches at Flonnies last night, and I asked him about the new additions. He just looked at me and smiled. Tells me all I need to know. Looking forward to Friday!

Speed always helps but just for conversation sake, clay ain’t slow. At least that’s what I’m told. Should be a good one.

These teams have only met on two prior occasions, those coming in ‘97 and ‘98.  Scott won both and the Highlanders were as physical a team as there was around back then.  Fast forward to modern day and this Clay team is as good as they’ve fielded in 30 years in terms of completeness.  I just don’t see how the Dawgs don’t get it done in this one.  Someone commented on here that Clay’s defense was suspect, I’d like to know the reasoning behind that thought.  Two of the biggest thumpers are out this week but with this bunch it’s the small guys that you better watch out for.  44 and 3 can hit with the best of em.

Only comment in this thread about defense was spike and he commented on the Scott secondary being susceptible to getting beat deep. I haven’t saw any comments about the clay defense at least in this game topic.

Yes sir. We beat a good Celina team 44-21 in '97. We thought it would be a tough, physical game in Celina the next year, but it was the opposite. Ole Jeffers ran for 3 touchdowns as we cruised to a 42-0 win. That's part of the reason that I'm confident heading into tomorrow night. Congrats on your thumpers defensively, but you can't hit what you can't catch.

Yeah, mass exodus of seniors from ‘97 to ‘98 in Celina.  It kinda kick started a run of two decades of subpar football that often had the Dawgs playing in the toughest region in A.  Concerning speed this year, I’m not worried about it.  You’ll see why come Friday.

You're right. I will see tomorrow night. Looking forward to watching us beat another subpar Celina team.
