Some of you guys to the west seem confident in Dresden.  I like Fayetteville's chances based on the very small amount I know.  What are you seeing when you watch Fayetteville that makes you feel good about the match?  I'm not picking.  Just curious and looking for objective perspectives on the game.

Imo Fayetteville will win the game. Dresden has the potential to make a game of it. If they can keep it close going into the 4th qtr then they could pull the upset. I see Fayetteville winning this game by at least 3 tds but they must play well to do it. If Fayetteville is flat are plays uninspired then Dresden could win the game. I saw Fayetteville play Lake County last year and I know they have most everyone back from that team. Dresden is alot like the Lake County team from last year. Not as fast but similar. The game with LC last year was a one score game until the last 2 minutes so I can see where Dresden can compete it this game. Fayetteville is a year older now and probably has improved alot. I just wouldn't sleep on Dresden.

I haven't seen either team play this year. I'm a Dresden fan (who lives in Florida) I listen to the games when they are on the radio. I'm actually surprised at how good Dresden has been playing this year. We are fairly young in many positions but very hard nosed and well coached.  My honest opinion is City should win by 2-3 scores. Dresden is capable of winning this game with a few lucky breaks. The reason we play the game. lol

HogHeaven talking about them hogs.. YES! LUV IT! For the record, he does know what he’s talking about, first hand experience with both them critters & coaches! Ha! .. I recall my first game when the wind shifted.. I thought a sewage drain had burst or something, I kept looking on that hillside & in them trees & bushes.. it was really quite the stink! Found out later the source.. which them hogs are a homefield advantage for Dresden. We need some huge fans, like from the back of swamp boats, then sit them up on that hill & blow towards the visitors sidelines. Yeah.. that’s an idea! Or use the “remains” & “slop” from the farm to fertilize the field a day or so before, which we all know that whole visitors side really needs lots of help with good, farm-animal, organic fertilizer, that grass over there just don’t want to grow. From the sidelines on past the seating area, that’s worst “won’t-grow” spot .. we should help that situation I think. It’s just a neighborly thing to do.

Well said.  We are on the same page.

You make a great point.

he's healthy enough to play but it may be a game-time decision. Although with him we offer a whole different look and we are definitely on a different level, without him we have still been very successful.  #1 Johnson has reached (unofficially) 980 yards this season rushing and has 20 TDs to his credit.  And he's still a Junior.  Like at every school on all levels, someone has to step up to fill the gap and the Tigers seem to have done that easily this year.  Dresden will be a challenge for sure, but I have confidence the Tigers will take care of business Friday.  One. Game. At. A. Time.

    • 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!
    • I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
